A reporter from the Daily Mail has tweeted Ben has signed a new deal. Anything in it?

Boden just tweeted. Great news! Signed to 2021.

We are moving forward in the Burnley way.

Well done BFC

The Daily Mail is obviously the go to paper for Burnley news.

Great news on Ben Mee signing up whatever the source.

Well done Burnley and Ben.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Wed Aug 08, 2018 10:04 am

Great stuff.
A good transfer window isn't just defined by who you bring in,
but also by keeping your existing main playing staff at the club.

Well done all round for getting this over the line.

Yes, a nice win in Istanbul would be good

This is good news, Ben for me epitomises the spirit and the 'we will not be defeated attitude' which runs through the team.

Epitomises everything that is great about Burnley. Without him we would have lost our `heart`. FANTASTIC news!

claretlegend · Post by **claretlegend** » Wed Aug 08, 2018 10:07 am

Signing of the summer! Great news! Would have easily cost 25m - 30m to replace him.

I’m filling up. Fantastic news, now give him the captaincy.

ecc · Post by **ecc** » Wed Aug 08, 2018 10:08 am

Fantastic news! I'd given up hope. All of a sudden - in the space of just four days - our window has become a success.

Can't help thinking the signing of Ben Gibson sent out a message to Ben but whether it did or not who cares?

Tall Paul · Post by **Tall Paul** » Wed Aug 08, 2018 10:08 am

Never in doubt.

What a great few days it's been.

Fantastic news. We have real competition for places in most areas now

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Wed Aug 08, 2018 10:10 am

Think the signature of Gibson signalled to BM the club's ambition.

Rather think that was what he wanted to see.

Best signing of the summer for me, takes some doing to get a player up to speed in a defensive unit we got a ready made one Good Lad Ben Mee

quoonbeatz · Post by **quoonbeatz** » Wed Aug 08, 2018 10:14 am

never in doubt.

Colburn_Claret · Post by **Colburn_Claret** » Wed Aug 08, 2018 10:16 am

Delighted.
Tarks, Mee and Gibson is a very strong defence. I have no problem with Kev Long either.
Things definitely looking up, that feeling of negativity is disappearing over the horizon.
If only we could get Brady and Defour fit, and keep them fit, we would be in dreamland.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Wed Aug 08, 2018 10:16 am

Good stuff. Gonna be a real battle for places at the back now with Gibson here. Hopefully pushes them to perform at an even higher level.

northeastclaret · Post by **northeastclaret** » Wed Aug 08, 2018 10:17 am

Looks like no club coming in for Ben to offer him the money he has been looking for and a new signing in his position has led him to reconsider running his contract down.

Well done Burnley

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Wed Aug 08, 2018 10:18 am

Great news. As stated above, I wonder if he was looking at our squad and wondering if we had enough to keep moving forward. Regardless, we have 4 CBs all with the ability to play at this level, which is marvellous.

Paranoid · Post by **Paranoid** » Wed Aug 08, 2018 10:19 am

Or he didn't want to go anywhere else but wanted the right deal for him.

Try and be a glass half full person instead.

RalphCoatesComb · Post by **RalphCoatesComb** » Wed Aug 08, 2018 10:21 am

Can this window get any better??

Thank you Ben Mee, Sean Dyche, The Board, Rocky Mills, Frank Casper et al...

Wonderful news!

duncandisorderly · Post by **duncandisorderly** » Wed Aug 08, 2018 10:21 am

If he sees out his contract he'll get probably the most deserved testimonial in our history.

dsr · Post by **dsr** » Wed Aug 08, 2018 10:32 am

My guess would be that he was waiting to check that the wage policy was remaining intact because he didn't want to sign a contract under the old policy and then see new boys flying in on double the money. He was always going to sign as long as the club played it right by him, which they have.
