We know VAR is ****, and will always favour the big boys.

Don’t give them an excuse, and unfortunately we did.

Hopefully a valuable lesson today.

Do we need another CM? We have Lesley, Cullen and Laurent and I think there’s an argument that Hannibal should drop deeper. Then there’s Ramsey. I would be looking to add creativity, tbh. But if we are looking at another physical CM, then it’s difficult to see past Billing. Whether it’s budget, club...

His arm isn’t in a position that makes his body unnaturally bigger, which is the law. “touches the ball with their hand/arm when it has made their body unnaturally bigger.

The inconsistencies are terrible. I read earlier that Alison held the ball longer than 8 seconds a total of 4 times during Liverpools opener, but wasn’t penalised once. You have the Bournemouth player flicking the ball away and nothing given, and then Tarks punished last night. I despise the PL and ...

How on earth did he get that job?

RM has been digging his players out in post match interviews since the very first game, too.

As much as I've no time for Stockport, I'm really pleased Owen Dodgson is playing well for them.

I thought Dodgson was excellent for Dundee whenever I saw him play. I feel he could have deputised quite well last season at LB, but I suppose he is not exotic enough for us now.

It's all a bit strange to me - as a Burnley fan of 35 years, I struggle to understand being that passionate about another club, let alone one I've only started supporting five minutes ago. It's not something that I'm that bothered by, just struggle to understand it. Naturally, we’ve all done our be...

Why have a British team that bounces between the leagues when you can go all in on a top flight team in La Liga? Just like Kompany using us as a stepping stone to bigger things, so is Alan Pace and ALK. We are but a vessel for their ambition, to leave when the success runs out. Nice stadium, beauti...

Ekdal had a mare yesterday giving Richarlison far too much space for both goals and not tight enough on Johnson for his.It will be a steep learning curve but he seemed to lack pace too. Is Bobby Thomas worth a bid now Beyer is injured again? We have plenty we could sweeten any deal with. Thomas gav...

IMO it just shows that plenty of these young players are just seen as stock items.

100%.

There are many reasons to dislike ALK, but our treatment of players like cattle is despicable.

I think we’re getting close to the realms of ripping up last seasons squad again, which was our downfall under VK. There’s a balance to be had. There’s no point ‘strengthening’ if we’re simultaneously destroying morale. No more signings for me now. Edit- unless of course there are significant out go...

It’ll be interesting to see what the agreed approach is for BFCISA to communicate with the club. Good to read that the suggestion of utilising the FAB was politely and rightly declined, if perhaps slightly concerning, that it was put forward as a suggestion. Has the club committed to future meeting...

Leading the race atm, and trying to sign him. My point was they are still spending on quality additions. I found this table interesting. They consider Isidor their third string Striker, and he is better than anything we have: https://x.com/rwmdawson/status/1950496597768335373?s=46&t=wEPWrFGGTbcMO7e...

I have very mixed feelings about this. I understand the attraction for fans that live far away, but I feel it could be another nail in the coffin for football, and entice people away from attending on match day which is the opposite of what we should be trying to achieve. Living in Kent, I don’t get...

Sunderland remind me of Middlesbrough when they came up and went for big names. That turned out well. Agree. I don’t rate Sunderland’s business at all. Are they even big names? 5 of their 6 signings played at Hearts, and they got pumped 3-0. Roker Report says Sunderland were unable to deal with the...

:lol: exactly what i thought, its like some mosaic GCSE piece made from Burnley program cuttings. Tbf, its probably only about £3-5m of development, what do you expect for that price Only £3-5M? To go with the other £10/20M+ we’ve spent since 2009. There has been a shocking lack of long term planni...

Can't help but feel the club are trying to polish a turd. The Bob Lord and Cricket Field need far more updating than a few shiny TV screens, flags and another add on. I guess it's better than nothing but seems again, we are kicking the can down the road. Yep, and I imagine these new additions make ...

I didn’t mean he was close to getting it, just that from what I’ve been told he’d be keen on it. Leicester seem to have done what Leicester, and a lot of clubs do, sack a manager and not have anyone lined up. Time will tell but it doesn’t look from the betting that anything is close.

People say Amdouni lacked fight and didn’t work hard, total myth. I remember the West Ham at home game, he had to come off he was out on his feet. The game changed when he went off, we shipped 2 late goals and lost 2-1 So that’s one game in a whole season you can remember he put a shift in? Says it...

I imagine the reality is the only financially viable option is to move. because no sooner we rebuild CFS, we then need to do the Bob Lord. And the new stands are shite too!

This may be tongue in cheek. But either way. I just don’t understand the figures these days. Like seriously where are teams getting the return on investment from.

Ajax didn’t sign Tresor because of the loan fee, not because of any injury/illness.

TsarBomba

It’s all very odd. What doesn’t make any sense is why a club like Ajax, or any club for that matter, would try and sign a player that had surgery for a serious issue and was so very unfit. He wouldn’t stand a chance of passing the medical for a start. Ajax would do their due diligence beforehand and...

A "cut adrift" post just 13 minutes after the fixtures were released must be a new record.

Nope, 8 minutes actually if you bothered to read the thread.

Brutal start, again. The Sunderland game at least provides us a really good opportunity to hopefully get a win early doors. It’s a must win, which is absolutely ridiculous so early in the season. Sunderland’s first four games in comparison are WHU, us, Brentford and Palace. I’m very much a glass ha...

I know the old adage is you need to play everyone twice regardless, but that is another really tough start.

Hopefully some of those early fixtures are off the back of the opposition playing in Europe.

It is standard practice for clubs to extend young players' deals where clubs think they'll be able to get a fee or they'll develop. I'm not sure how this has passed you by.

Or be positive and consider our chances of loaning a better quality of player. Or some skilful movement of players between the two clubs.

The only flops there really are Weghorst, Tresor and Gibson. Beyer and Ramsey have been unlucky with injuries. As was Brady, he was a real player beforehand. Did we not break even at least on Cornet?
