Everton fans turning on Moyes?

https://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/thre ... 56/page-47

Surely not ? One of the most deluded fan bases in football were constantly telling people they have got their Everton back now with Moyes

claretonthecoast1882

Decent effort to sell out the whole ground in 20 minutes for a below average League cup draw

claretonthecoast1882

Joke of a decision, heard Moyes say that the ref told him it wasn't his decision to award it.

You would think he himself would then think maybe I should look at it myself instead of using the PMM (protect my mate) system currently in place.

New owners have immediately sacked Derek Adams. Seems a strange move.

To be fair they did give him an hour

I’ve already done more than holding them to account on the internet I’ve joined BFCISA who I know number membership in the hundreds and growing rapidly. Groups of supporters properly organised and motivated by the right reasons can have a positive effect for club owners. Maybe you should also join ...

claretonthecoast1882

We’ve been through the last owners motives on numerous threads. My point is that no one should be shocked or surprised by our current majority shareholders turning up at Espanyol or any other club they acquire as their only motive is to make money. So the same as every business owner and worker in ...

claretonthecoast1882

You’ve totally missed my point. I’m not saying that as supporters we can do anything at all about who owns the club currently but we can hold them to task. There is one thing for certain about ‘successful’ people and that is they don’t like to be questioned or challenged but that shouldn’t stop any...

One for the transfer thread ?

claretonthecoast1882

The theory is that we will hit on more than we don't and flip them for a profit - but it's not that straightforward. We've signed plenty of deals that will likely result in losses or only just break even, and that's before considering the wages & agent fees paid out to players who have barely kicke...

Probably a stupid question, but can't find the answer on the Burnley website. How do you get a claret number, if you haven't had one previously.

Think you have to contact the ticket office to register for one. Not 100% sure but think that is it.

claretonthecoast1882

Whether you are pro or anti ALK surely everyone can agree that ALK through VSL are in the business of buying and managing football clubs to make a profit for the shareholders of those organisations. They are not fans of either Burnley or Espanyol, they don't feel the way we do or Espanyol fans do a...

What do we need.. if we want to be competitive? Harsh, but the answer to that one is simply ‘in the division below’. We were an excellent Championship side and we still are.

Yup,I can see it being a routine of 1 excellent season followed by a tough season on repeat.

claretonthecoast1882

Cheers for that. However, it seems very harsh to disadvantage those who are unable to attend for very good reason, having paid full price for a season ticket. My daughter is a nurse at Blackburn Royal infirmary and therefore due to shifts will not be able to attend all games this season. Bad enough...

Brun Larsen a strange signing too, 7£m is massively overpriced for a winger who couldn’t get a start in the Bundesliga but we had about 9 wide players at the club already. Tuanzebe you can add to that list too, we’ve got an abundance of central defenders who we need to get rid of, he can’t stay fit...

I suppose all the people on here who have a better understanding of finances may be able to explain? I am quite certain of something though the anonymous investors who have put their money into the club will expect a return on their investment. Some of them will probably have invested large sums an...

claretonthecoast1882

I'm not taking sides on this one, but we do seem to have a bloated squad that are not up to PL standard. Of the current squad, only Dub and kyle could be classed as PL standard, and yet, they both probably have a couple of years left at this level. The rest of our squad are good championship player...

claretonthecoast1882

Probably nothing, but it would be nice to know who "actually owns the club" and then we could put a name to who is creaming off the profits, because there are some, but it's certainly not club profit, so where's it going. How much in profit has been creamed off ? You will have some base figure I pr...

It is a shame Farnell & El Kashashy didn't buy the club... some on here definitely deserve them

Real chaos over the road and it seems as though it is being caused by one man. Suhail Pasha. If anybody is a hero for the Clarets enjoying watching this circus, it's him.

Some fairly predictable responses and even verging on the snobbish side. For the record I love Test cricket and there is no doubt it is the supreme form of cricket.

Anyone know anything about if they'll add public buses from burnley bus station to Manchester as that'll be the way we get there?

There is a frequent X43 service runs Burnley to Manchester, then just get a tram from the city centre.

Harrogate away please.

If they go out Bradford at home will do

Loyalty Point system working fine then. It's over an hour of sales into the 1750 pts qualifiying period and there are plenty of seats together, 270 tickets left on sale.

There’s no way he’s come up with this stance on his own.

Liverpool will absolutely be complicit in this stance to drive the price down.

Which is what they did with Van Dijk

I can't imagine that will happen given it could cost him his place in the World Cup team through not playing.

He will probably view it as Sweden couldn't leave him out, if it is a priority of his to play in the World Cup

It’s embarrassing for him. If I was Newcastle I’d do everything in power to make him sweat. Fines, train without coaches etc. Yes it’s going to cost them a lot of money but the owners are rich enough. Send a message. In a normal world his conduct would put off potential buyers but this is football....

Ornstein reporting that Isak is refusing to play for Newcastle ever again, even if he is still there when the window closes.

I love cricket but I don’t even switch on my tv now for this. I gave it a go when it first started but that was it. It’s killing other competitions too and has even forced test cricket into a tight schedule. The one downside to the brilliant test series that just took place was the constant rotatio...

I watched the first 2 or 3 games when it was launched and can't remember watching a game since. The fact they crammed in the India test series to hold this weird says so much about the people running the game in this country.

Broja deal worth up to £20m ‘if all add ons are met’.

So it’s up to speculation how much of that is the base fee.

The jury is out on this one. We’ve tried to replace one of the brightest goalkeeping prospects in Europe with two players who have cost the club a combined fee of less than £10m. Competition at Newcastle is clearly superior to that at Burnley, but Dubravka’s was third choice there and his career is...
