In isolation we might have accepted the bid from Wolves, but the fact that we were absolutely haemorrhaging players at the time made it difficult to do. Think we all expected him to make more of an impact on the pitch, too. Fair point regarding the number of players departing, at the time. Presumab...

You are correct it is bang out of order. Some of them are female and therefore don’t have knobs to polish

Some of the ones with partners might.

I didn’t realise until I went into one in Leeds, the other week. Exactly the same inside and still with Smiths branded items for sale.

The only noticeable difference seemed to be how dull it was in the store. Not sure if they had a lighting issue or are trying to cut costs by reducing the leccy bill!

Should, with hindsight have been sold last summer, when his stock was high and there was apparent interest. If our model is to buy young and cheap, we’ve got to get better at identifying when to sell. The same could have been said for the likes of Benson and Zaroury, the summer before. I get that it...

Of course you do because you support Burnley CC……I don’t I think it’s shocking that the CC is unlikely to offer an inch to the club because it’s bank rolling it. The CC is a parasite. The FC is the host. The FC could and should try its best to remove the financial benefits the CC gain from being ne...

Landing this now, a few days before the first home game must mean that there’s a **** hot, dogs ******** of a signing being announced tomorrow! In all seriousness though, it won’t just impact those now being made to walk right around the ground. Those exiting the CFS and Bob Lord, who don’t head tow...

I nearly choked on my smashed avocado reading this?

What's wrong with smashed avocado on sourdough bread with poached egg?

Apart from the obvious that you neglected to mention the hollandaise.

It ain’t for me, but more palatable than the mushy peas mentioned further up the thread.

Didn’t Wrexham and Birmingham have a request to have their league game played in America rejected last season? I seem to remember the FA refused as it would set an unhealthy precedent. If any evidence was needed of American owners not understanding British football, or perhaps more worryingly, not ...

Thats exactly what they did..... lied to us about what foods were good for us and got everybody onto ultra processed shiiite. Vapes really are bad news for us especially kids - its a drug that seems to be legal and nobody is interested in controlling it - absolute epidemic. And I’d suggest vapes ar...

DCWat

Agreed, but kids are getting into vaping at 14/15 through peer pressure - not sure they would've done the same with cigarettes. In York and probably most towns and cities vapes are being sold over the counter illegally to schoolkids - even turkish barbers are selling them and who knows whats in the...

Apparently Les won't be picked until he's mastered Ugochukwu.

That’s a real shame, I think we could do with him before Christmas.

My friend who is in his eighties might have stop coming to the games if that pathway is closed to home fans. He's been attending for over 70 years, but it would likely be just too far for him to walk three times the distance all the way around. Compare and contrast that with Sunderland’s free ticke...

Really pleased with our transfer approach, this window. A mixture of youth and experience, some potentially exciting prospects and targeting key areas. I’ve lost count of the number of previous windows when, despite decent signings, there has always looked to be a glaring void in one area of the pit...

These type of things demonstrate the challenge that BFCISA and perhaps the FAB has. Appreciating that these decisions were pre BFCISA, why not consult with the fans groups available to them. OK so they may be doing it anyway, but I don’t see what benefit it serves (other than perhaps from a time per...

I just had a quick look on saintsweb to see what they made of him, I wish I hadn’t bothered now! They’re almost polar opposite to the comments from Chelsea fans. I suppose the concern is that he may well look good in a team full of top quality players… In a team with less quality and fighting relega...

DCWat

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 meetings?

Got to love that the blame is thrown at those moderating and not the bickerers that are spoiling the transfer thread, and other threads, for everyone else. I’m guessing that were the debate to be had face to face, there wouldn’t be the same level of arguments and name calling. There’s no need. Diffe...

I think everyone who purchased a ticket in the cricket field stand should ask for some sort of concession from the club, a nice discount perhaps. There's absolutley no chance the club can sell you a specific seat and then change it- especially given it's demonstrably a worse view in some areas. I'd...

Loves an LED does Alan! It’ll be visible from the International Space Station by the time he’s finished.

Nice message and the best of luck to him, wherever that may be. He’d have been useful this season, more so next, if we don’t survive, but I do think it’s probably the right time to move on, for him and for us. It’s probably fair to say that he’s divided opinion, certainly at Premier League level, bu...

I do humbly apologise profusely for not accurately recording when the first seafood snacks & kebabs became the choice of the intoxicated. I'd happily wager a bet after a skinful you are thinking of doners & not crab sticks.

Was it Worrall who said in a co comms that his knee “looked like it was on backwards”?

Hopefully he gets back playing, to start with. After that, I suppose it’s a question of whether or not he can get back to his pre injury levels. Fingers crossed for him and us.

DCWat

I can’t really see the issue with it. In fact it’s a good idea. Can’t say I’ve got too much interest in it but I will probably tune into some of the latter round matches. When is too much football? For me, we are well past that point. Not just from a spectator perspective but from a player perspect...

Brentford bigger than Burnley has to be as ludicrous as Bradford City claiming they are. I ******* hate Bradford City, but in all fairness, despite living in a BD postcode, not one of their fans has ever suggested to me that they’re bigger than Burnley.

This club needs major surgery and selling Fernandes falls under my definition of this. If I was Utd I'd not think twice if the Saudis came for him and he wanted to go.

Awful football - bit of an embarrassing example of the Premier League, to the rest of Europe.

Not sure if mentioned but Mobland on Paramount is pretty decent, so far.

A shame if he does leave. I was looking forward to seeing how he progressed, next season, at the level above. I had a few doubts about whether or not he’d be quite up to the step up, but wouldn’t at all have been surprised to see him flourish. Definitely one that will need replacing and not simply b...

The internet and social media is saturated with places to discuss Leeds United. Why are Leeds fans trying to do it on a Burnley FC board? Better for it, if the discussion is decent, if you ask me.

It’s properly tin pot, a pitch invasion. It smacks of little club that’s finally won something.

No different to clap sticks, foam hands, drums and trumpeters.

What's your gripe with Bradford?

Born in Bradford, grown up a Burnley fan. Years of abuse from City fans (amazingly, they were above us for too many years, during our worst times). Hate them - they’re my Rovers to a Burnley fan from Burnley.

DCWat

Sadly, I’m convinced that they’re going to go up, this time.

Everyone below them seems intent on not putting up any sort of challenge, despite City not being on the best run themselves.

It’ll be reet - a promotion will only be a blip and they’ll be back down to their rightful division soon enough.

I’d like to say all of the Saturday 3PM kick offs but we’ll probably get more of those next season.

The odds are against, and probably widening year on year, but it’s not beyond the realms of possibility that a team without wealthy owners, or parachute payments, can be promoted. It’s a pretty similar scenario in the PL with relegation. You need a few clubs to have a poor season or to be spot on wi...
