Fortune favours the brave. We do tend to play with a fear that Sunderland and Leeds have banished. In some ways it's understandable, and showing that bravery isn't on SPs CV. There have been many moments we've looked good enough this season, but just too few to register the wins we need. SP will sor...

Can't fault Parker, that team should have walked that game. The players attitude cost us the game.

Gallagher always says, when he knows its a load of ********, that that is what THEY want.
Who the **** are THEY, because it certainly isn't the fans, it isn't the players, it isn't the managers, and it isn't FIFA, because these things don't happen in European leagues.

Colburn_Claret

Just read that shocked.

I'd presumed he'd left to take the Leicester job, and now feel even worse for it. Thoughts are with his family at this sad time.

AI has to be a very useful tool in scouting, but it can't be the only tool. It can't measure temperament or attitude for example.

Colburn_Claret

Les's sending off was ridiculously harsh. The first tackle was definitely bad, if unintentional, but the second was nothing, barely a free kick. He was going down as soon as he saw Hartmann was getting the ball first. I would say though, on both occasions he went sliding in, and I stated on the tran...

Colburn_Claret

Sickening result, i didn't see the match so won't score, but the players must be gutted. I hope someone shows them this thread to see how much their efforts were appreciated.
We won't play Liverpool every week, it offers so much hope for the season ahead.

Colburn_Claret

It's the hope that kills you. I'm normally an optimistic, but I can't help the feeling of resignation. On holiday with family in NI, so I will be incommunicado with my fingers crossed in my pocket. Today, as in all big games, is about the performance not the result. We've shown the good and the bad ...

It was crap meaningless rubbish. It was always going to be. I don't like Tuchels squads, or teams, but the real problem is the players can't motivate themselves to break sweat against Andorra. There should be preliminaries for these smaller nations. To clutter the calender with these non contests se...

I dare say it's the same with lottery winners as it is with footballers. Apparently about 1/3 of lottery winners don't want financial advice because they' know they have more than they can ever spend so they're just going to stick it in a bank deposit account. Others take advice and invest cautious...

I don't have a fraction of what these players had, but what savings i have are spread about. Why would anyone put all their money in one basket, or should that read basket case. It makes no sense.

Colburn_Claret

Wolves aren't going full time so they won't be promoted even if they win the league, unless they change their minds. The players didn't find out until near the end of last season so weren't happy. They had been playing to win the league thinking they would be promoted if they did win it. I wasn't a...

Colburn_Claret

On paper excellent.
Definitely got the height, pace and strength right.
Fingers crossed we find a solid team amongst them, but as windows go we can't complain.

Colburn_Claret

Have things changed.
I thought it was just a loan, and that the loan window didn't close for a week after the normal window.
If it has changed we need to find him somewhere abroad.

Saudi for a year with a £20 million loan fee would be perfect

Colburn_Claret

Really sad to see him go, but it had to happen.
A great signing for us, but literally too little physically for the Premier League.
If we manage to stay up, and he has a good season, we have a saleable asset again. If we do go down, he could still do a job for us after the inevitable fire sale.

Colburn_Claret

It wouldbe a bigger risk keeping him this season, as his game time would be limited. A year in the championship and he'll get plenty of minutes, find his form, and come back the player we hoped we'd bought.
Good luck Aaron, come home fighting fit.

Colburn_Claret

Did his bit on the big stage. More intent on not getting hit/hurt than going for it. Got a very close decision against 'Enery Cooper, which Cooper did not like and finished his career. Joe B. went on to mix it with the best. Thanks Joe. Henry was robbed, they wanted the up and coming younger guy, b...

We aren't the finished article yet, the pieces might be through the door, but they've yet to be put in place.
We need to give our players some slack, and the benefit of the doubt.
We have to reduce our squad, obviously, far too heavy, but we don't want to chuck the baby out with the bath water.

Colburn_Claret

As long as Tresor is in the building, he has to be a part of the match day team. If it's only off the bench until he's got full fitness so be it, but it would be criminal not to start gaining some value for our money.
He has what we need, just doesn't look capable of a full 90 mins.

And top of the league. Early days or not.

We've already played Wolves away, who in the absence of Florist and Newcastle, will be our biggest challengers, and got a draw.
Fingers crossed this is the season we finally go up.

Colburn_Claret

As last season we have to learn to crawl before we can walk, I think SP is doing a great job. Yesterday's start had more to do with United treating it like a cup final. We settled down really well second half. I still think we won't see our 'best' side for a few weeks yet. The only criticism I'd mak...

Lesley and Dubravka apart the rest have been terrible. I do not know what Hannibal is bringing to this team. Really poor performance. Got to be looking at a couple of subs at half time Horses for courses, Hannibal is good when we are attacking, not so good when it's backs to the wall. We'd be bette...

You have to be happy with 1-0 considering how we've played. We can only get better, they will have a job to maintain if we play with a bit more nous. I feared the worst after Grimsby, they would either lay down, unlikely, or play their socks off. I hope SP can calm us down, we've got plenty on the b...

Apologies, I should have posted my message on the Society thread, but it was going through my mind at the time of typing. I do think that a lot of today's problems within society go back to Thatcher. I also believe that people like this moron are a symptom of society's breakdown, but not the only on...

Colburn_Claret

Agree, unless we get an offer we can't refuse. It wouldn't take much of an offer to make a good profit. It would be sad to see him go, he's been an unbelievable servant for what we paid, and i still struggle to think some Stoke fans didn't rate him. Always gives 100%, and always with a smile on his...

Imagine being that sad at 60 years old. He was only 19 at the time of the miners strike, and to me if you had to go back and pin ponit a moment in time, when society started to breakdown, that would be it. Thatchers divide and conquer policies had so many knock on effects, other than breaking the u...

I rekon Worrall stays. I honestly could see Ekdal being let go if we bring in another centre back.

I don't mind Worral, he does what it says on the tin, but I'd never keep him ahead of Ekdal. If someone was to offer us a decent profit maybe.

In all my years of watching Burnley (from 1960) the only first team players who have moved directly from one to the other are

Burnley to Blackburn
Walter Joyce
Adam Blacklaw

Blackburn to Burnley
Peter Devine
Andy Todd (loan)
Jay McEveley (loan)

Did we pay a fee for Devine CT?

Colburn_Claret

It's a culmination of many things, but I'd add there is little to no reward for working hard, the minimum wage is just what it says on the tin, and very little consequences for being an idle *******. Any system like that is going to generate a selfish, couldn't care less attitude. Society starts bre...

Peter Devine definitely crossed the water, but he hardly played for Bastards, so don't know if a fee was involved?

Gut feeling was , he was out of contract, but again might be wrong.

Sky news saying this morning that Ipswich are buying a Brazillian off Norwich, the first direct transfer between the clubs for 24 years. It got me thinking of our dealings with Bastards.
