Well, I bet there's lots of clubs and managers who wish they had what we have.

And a lot of Chairmen who wish they had a manager that we have.

Feet firmly on the ground. Good to see and dare I say it, "The Burnley Way!"

Indeed. Suggested that a couple of years down the line, assuming we're still in the Premier League, they'll have a look at doing something to the two stands. I am guessing he's referring to the Bob Lord and the CFS.

The only thing I'm not too keen on is the future possibility of outside investment, unless whoever puts money in can never get hold of 51% of the shareholding.

Unrealistic for a company to that enforce that long term. A future investor and benefactor will expect to acquire this level of shareholding. We can't never look at outside investment but are in good hands at the moment.

Both Mike & John B seem like really nice, level headed guys. I don’t know any other board members but they have both been interviewed many times over the last few years.

The common sense, no nonsense approach seems to run through the heart of the club.

We've been extremely luck to have a succession of guys who are capable, professional and also committed Clarets and decent chaps too.

No coincidence they've helped in our current success.

Just lacking a little in ambition and when Dyche moves on unfortunately you'll fade away and find your true level. Cant deny over the past 5 years you've had a good run though and finishing 8th this season will be a remarkable achievement for such a little club

Foxy_Tom99 was probably one of the many uneducated Leicester fans singing, “Champions of England, you’ll never sing that” when we played them last season. A MASSIVE club that, other than said Premier League title 2 years ago, has ZERO history whatsoever.

Good interview. I am proud that our club is in the hands of Burnley people and its management and players are mainly British. Convinced that's why there is such a sense of togetherness.

Our Directors come in for a lot of criticism at times, however, think about the fact that Daniel Levy, Chairman at Spurs receives a salary of £6 Million per year which is £5000 more per week that Harry Kane is paid.
How much do our Directors get?

Are you still behind us? Is this the reason for your little dribbling tantrum son?

Honestly chill out, there’s a good lad, go and play with your Panini stickers and have a go on your see saw.
