Kompany's Burnley team on the last day of the season had Odobert, Cullen, Berge and Larson in it... That's far better than anything we can put out now; we have nobody anywhere near the same class as Berge. We need to get a shift on, or it's curtains before we even start the season! A full month bef...

Go on, I'll bite... what record?

I think it was the shortest Burnley career (about 5 minutes on the pitch). I used to work with someone that told me that stat all the time

Board: “We’re going to make so much money!” (A quote they’ve already used on camera I might add) There's nothing like adding context to a quote before quoting it is there.

That bit is simple to understand, yes. But that’s not the point. Surely the person buying the ticket should get some points? If I can’t be arsed to go and put my ticket on the exchange, I get more points than the person who buys the ticket and actually goes to the match. That’s ridiculous. But why ...

I dont think the club would do this, so I think this is a wind up by the poster suggesting this will happen.

Be surprised if they do. Got a feeling they'll want to let the Jota tragedy calm down a bit more first.

Don't think that will have much bearing on it. Clubs arguing over kick off times for games now that's a different story....

Ian Wight at home to Notts County. Vividly remember as a child watching the Michael Thomas Arsenal winner on TV. Notts County equalised in the final 4 minutes before that winner.

Michael Thomas in ‘89 is better than Glass and Aguero. It’ll never be topped. I think both Thomas & Aguero goals are on a par really.

Should be noted that Manchester City played the same game on Weds 16th August 2023 against Sevilla in Greece, then played as normal on Saturday 19th August 2023 at home to Newcastle.

We will take the lower amount. Last time we played them was a pointless game at the end of the season. This time it is the first game of the season, spurs are poor, and schools are off and a lot will want to make a weekend of it. We will easy sell close to 3,000, but the club don’t see it this way....

Completely waste of money & resources I know last season they changed the system, but unless you’ve changed seat or price category there should be no reason to send out new cards as often as they have done I dont disagree on that tbh.
