Simply to take my seat in the JHU for a PL game sooner rather than later.

To be able to fly back to Burnley now and then to get some games in on the Turf, since this would mean the Covid problem had ended and things were getting back to normal. More football related, Burnley to sign a good, young right back and one or two quality midfielders, enabling us to finish in the top half of the table again.

VAR gone...already a no!
Dyche not gone...more likely than not, for mine.
2 new signings...if only to replace Hart & Lennon, a CB also would be a bonus.
Mid-table finish. Highly likely if SD stays.

That it begins and ends on the dates pre-set.

bfcjg · Post by **bfcjg** » Mon Aug 03, 2020 7:52 pm

A good run without injuries to see what we really can achieve, more pace breaking from midfield and Dyche still in charge.
Dirty Leeds relegated by February.

Rowls · Post by **Rowls** » Mon Aug 03, 2020 7:56 pm

Dyche still in charge.

At least three signings ready to push for the starting lineup - CM, RB, RW. And a few more for the squad.

Rovers to get relegated

To push for Europe again

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Mon Aug 03, 2020 8:12 pm

Dyche still at the helm.

Big money for Pope if he goes, and getting Gibson off the books.

Hopefully an attacking midfielder, young right back to replace Bards/Lowton in time, and a pacy right winger to give us another dimension.

A decent cup run (i know i know) but we can dream can't we.

Top half finish with a tilt at Europe.

A victory over Arsenal, and the double over Leeds.

Fans back at games hopefully around Xmas.

Rovers going into admin, it wouldn't be before time.

Staying in the Prem

Sozturf7 · Post by **Sozturf7** » Mon Aug 03, 2020 8:39 pm

A decent cup run, how about the final

It's overdue.

bpgburn · Post by **bpgburn** » Mon Aug 03, 2020 8:45 pm

Finishing anywhere between 17th and the top again will do fine..

Sheedyclaret · Post by **Sheedyclaret** » Mon Aug 03, 2020 8:46 pm

17th anything else a bonus.

jurek · Post by **jurek** » Mon Aug 03, 2020 8:51 pm

I'd hope for another decent season with some notable
wins, performances and goals.

A dream would be to uncover a rising young star who can excite both the fans,
critics and the like. As well as win us a few extra games.

conyoviejo · Post by **conyoviejo** » Mon Aug 03, 2020 9:03 pm

To avoid relegation and finish above Dirty Leeds ..

BurnleyPaul · Post by **BurnleyPaul** » Mon Aug 03, 2020 9:40 pm

Finish no lower than 17th- preferably higher though.
No change of manager.
Gradual evolution of squad (decrease age, improve quality, adapt style).
Clear public understanding of COVID-19’s impact on our club.
Indication of next stage in ground development.
Improve scouting network further- particularly for U16s in light of new Cat. 1 academy status.

Think that’s enough- don’t you?

If I’m being greedy then I’d like a billionaire owner who is willing to drop large amounts of money into the club but not actually interfere with its running....

boatshed bill · Post by **boatshed bill** » Mon Aug 03, 2020 9:50 pm

Same as every season.
Survival, and maybe a cup run.

ClaretTony · Post by **ClaretTony** » Mon Aug 03, 2020 9:55 pm

Same as every season for me in this league, staying in the Premier League and not getting dragged into a relegation battle.

DCWat · Post by **DCWat** » Mon Aug 03, 2020 10:02 pm

We release the purse strings for a couple of good younger players, Dyche is reinvigorated and signs a new contract, we have a comfortable season in the league (with some nice football played), we have a good cup run and we get to see at least half a season, live at the ground.

As it stands, I’ll settle for Dyche staying and keeping us up again.

warksclaret · Post by **warksclaret** » Mon Aug 03, 2020 10:09 pm

At least 3 who have played minutes in the PL on the bench

Wellsy1882 · Post by **Wellsy1882** » Mon Aug 03, 2020 10:21 pm

A top 17 finish

timshorts · Post by **timshorts** » Mon Aug 03, 2020 10:57 pm

Boris brings in a points deduction for plastic armchair fans. The number of substitutes allowed is decreased to 1, but relegation places go up to 5 instead.
West ham Liverpool and man u, villa and Leeds all get relegated and are replaced by Norwich Stoke, Cardiff, Barnsley and Bristol city.
Joey Barton, George oghani and Danielle van der donk are the new presenters of match of the day.
To help with UK obesity it becomes illegal to sell fried chicken without the skin being removed before coating/cooking.
Tommy Robinson stays in Spain and all his mates go out to live with him in the Costa del chavi.
The end of celebrity culture as the populous wake up and find that they've been had and it's all a load of shight.
Everything else back to normal, but Wimbledon fortnight is found the be the source of covid 19 and is banned in perpetuity.
We are looking forward to the champions league with a squad of 18 players plus a group of youth players who include 15 future Wales World Cup winners.

That will do for now.

FA Cup winners.

BenWickes · Post by **BenWickes** » Tue Aug 04, 2020 6:42 am

Fans allowed back in stadiums.
Finishing no lower than 17th, preferably top ten again.
A nice cup run but not getting my hopes up.
Keeping the score down to 4 at the Etihad would be progress.
Another win at OT.
Beating Arsenal though I am sure Arteta will find some excuse.
Another draw at Anfield. Or a win like we almost did this past season.
West Ham, Leeds and Brighton to get relegated.
Beating Spurs and Chelsea for personal reasons (both best mates support those two).
Rovers to finish in the relegation zone.

Quicknick · Post by **Quicknick** » Tue Aug 04, 2020 7:16 am

Fans in stadiums.
Burnley finish 8th.
Leeds and Blackburn relelgated.
Harrogate to win League 2, Bradford City relegated.

For a minimum of six signings, so Souness and Sky can stop laughing at us.

England win the Euros

JohnMac · Post by **JohnMac** » Tue Aug 04, 2020 2:34 pm

A cure for Covid, watching a game at the Turf and more goals being scored from our midfield.

First win at Fulham since 1980

Ric_C · Post by **Ric_C** » Wed Aug 05, 2020 1:40 am

Should be an interesting one next season. Think because of the quick turnaround it will be hard for the teams in Europe to play so many extra games in a short space of time. Teams who require a big influx of players may run into the risk of panic buys. Especially thinking Fulham and Villa may fit into that category. Having said all that, I do think it will be extremely tough next season, but I have full faith we’ll be ok.

Take the cups a bit more seriously.

ClaretMov · Post by **ClaretMov** » Thu Aug 06, 2020 9:15 am

Stay up

RB in

CM in

Winger in

No player's out unless we get 40+ million and Dyche gets at least half back to spend

A win against Arsenal, and a double over Leeds

Leeds relegated

Cup run

It may well be difficult for teams who're in European competitions to deal with so many extra games but you can be sure they'll still have their tours abroad at the end of this next season

Be allowed back on home games at least
2-3 quality signings
Avoid a relegation battle
Decent run in the FA Cup
Lose against a league 2 side in the league cup

I dont know about Hope's, beginning to get a bit peeved at the amount of young players Brighton seem to be in for...a lot of forward planning going on at that club.

Just seen this on twitter...did make me giggle

"You have missed the bigger issue, Mike Rigg is MIA, no body has seen him in the last 18 months, lol."
