Loan with an obligation to buy isn’t that stupid an idea to be honest. We’d have to pay slightly above market value as Plymouth would need to take out a loan against the future income. So we’d have to buy the player and cover loan costs. We get to defer payment for 12 months, Plymouth still get thei...

Tom Cannon on loan from Leicester? Did well at PNE a few seasons back.

We will probably need 7 or 8 in at this rate

As for Koleosho, 3m bought. 15 starts last season - 1 goal (against Sheff Utd) 1 assist

Sell for 25 million?

Not the worst deal in the world

Exactly!

CJ Egan-Riley going Huddersfield for £350k....will be Terriers highest wage earner.

Mr back track now I see A few days ago it was ‘either a manager employed or working at the euros’ and ‘I’ll give you a clue they aren’t working at the euros’ You’re not so confident now. Why act like you knew who it was when you clearly had no idea I just wanted to avoid upsetting you, but it seems...

Suntan

Thierry Henry is not doing all of that while preparing France for the Olympics and we are not waiting until our season kicks off to have a manager in place. If I am wrong then it would suggest they are incredibly clueless. So you state a fact in the first sentence and then caveat it in the second t...

Here he is, thought you had been quiet for abit, you still sticking to it’s not Bellamy and someone currently employed or what pal? Have you missed me? Seriously why would it be Bellamy? If the board wanted to give it to Bellamy don't you think it would have happened about a month ago? In my person...

Suntan

Just remember the manager could well be in situ behind the scenes overseeing pre-season and transfer activity. Just because its not been announced to uptheclarets doesn't mean Pace and the board are running around clueless with no plan in place.

YouTuber vizeh saying he had been told prior to the mirror article that it is between Parker and Bellamy which goes completely against the main in the know on this thread.

But the managers distancing themselves weren’t in the running anyway so irrelevant really.

You said the other day pace would never want the ‘sulky Dutchman’ but now saying he was in the running, if you are going to act like you know at least keep your stories matching up pal There were over 100 managers in the running pal and many have fallen by the wayside including RVN so what have I s...

Suntan

While I do actually agree with this, I’m just curious what is stopping you from sharing who you think we are going for? What are the ‘circumstances’ stopping us from announcing a manager that you’ve alluded to? Because nothing in life is certain! And you already know the person I'm alluding to and ...

RVN has gone for plan B knowing he was no longer in the running for the Burnley job. With all due respect, well respected journalists are clutching at straws trying to keep their readers interested. Second guessing any small snippets of information they hear without ever really knowing what’s going ...

RVN was almost through the door, he'd had a second interview was offered the job subject to a work visa and would of been announced late this werk early next werk, you can believe me or not but it was 100% happening until Man utd turned up at the last minute, as the saying goes sh1t happens.

Stop it everyone, there’s no ball been dropped and we haven’t been pipped at the post by Utd or anyone else. If Pace and the board wanted RVN he’d have been appointed by now. All this rubbish is being pedalled from the RVN camp and the media are falling for it. He was a person of interest, who we've...

He’s not front runner, suntan said it himself that pace wouldn’t want the ‘sulky Dutchman’ and they said the new manager is currently employed. You have to understand suntan is extremely in the know

If you're going to quote someone at least quote them correctly please!

Suntan

I've said this before; what if circumstances dictate that we can't make an announcement just yet? But this doesn't mean that said manager can't be working away in the background; analysing current squad, putting prospective names forward, giving the coaches ideas on training and discussing tactics. ...

It’s not your hobby to write on a message board but you will happily say ‘let’s narrow it down it’s not someone from the euros’

You are confident enough to waffle stuff like that but won’t say who it is.

You have absolutely no idea and have a weird hobby acting like you have inside info

Suntan

My hobby is following BFC not writing on a message board

And as I’ve stated previously I don’t think it’s my place to make an announcement on the new manager, we have a PR department who get paid to do that

Suntan

Instead of coming on here with your confident cryptic ‘it’s either someone employed or at the euros and it’s not someone at the euros ;)’ Or ‘it’s not Bellamy or Lampard’ Why don’t you have the confidence to come on here and say who it is then Let’s leave the announcements to the board and BFC 👏🏻

Suntan

You are doing the exact opposite to ‘leaving it to pace’ by coming on here and waffling on that you know who it is. You now claiming we wouldn’t touch RVN. Maybe actually read what I wrote before replying? I never claimed anything, my personal opinion that I doubt Pace would want to have to deal wi...

Not a single word from Andy jones or Matt from Burnley express either about the news yet Romano and sacha supposedly have the news.

Has Andy jones ever broke a story?

None of them have a clue and are all clutching at straws.

Suntan

Here you are again. You have been implying it’s Thierry Henry so you can give up the act now. If that’s the case and you think it’s Henry, it will be interesting seeing him manage at the Olympics while we prepare for the Championship season. I’ve not implied it’s anyone; but there’s so much sh!t sp...

Not at all cos RVN is not coming to Turf Moor. We are Burnley...a championship team, not a Global entity like Utd and RVN logically will jump at the opportunity to further his career at OT. RVN is a Utd legend and James Radcliffe is a huge fan of him so......it's back to Bellamy/Lampard and a ghost...

1) No one has any idea what is going on 2) The new assistant probably knows who the Manager or Head Coach is 3) The Manager or New Head Coach is happy with that appointment (4) The new manager could be Frank Lampard who is a pundit and it won’t be announced until Euros is over 5) This post may be t...

Are you going to keep popping up on this thread with insinuations rather than just saying who it is you’ve been told? You’ve currently got a pretty nice looking hedged bet of anyone on Euros duty or currently employed.

Let’s narrow it down and rule out the Euros

Suntan

Surely quite the opposite? There's absolutely nothing to have stopped us from announcing Bellamy by now along with Jensen since he is already here. My logical assumption is that it has to be someone else who can't be announced as yet, maybe due to involvement in Euros or due to continuing negotiati...

Suntan

If you believe social media we've whittled the list down to 3 candidates; Corberan, RVN & an unnamed foreign manager.
And I think there's a reason why one of them is still unknown

Suntan

I agree, it worries me that there isn't an 'ideal' standout candidate. I hope they are just spoilt for choice, rather than struggling to find anyone suitable. Remember it took ages for Kompany to be announced last time but it didn't mean he wasn't working in the background overseeing transfers, sta...

Suntan

Funnily enough we find ourselves in a similar position as Bayern. No manager of note wanted the job, VK was about 8th choice and perhaps the best of what was left so they took him on. All the managers in the frame for us are holding out for a better appointment..Leicester etc but we are definitely ...

Suntan

I’m not doubting anyones theories or what they’ve heard as I know bugger all myself. I just find this whole process bizarre and I am trying to rationalise appointing an assistant manager before we get an actual manager/head coach. The logical conclusion is they’ve decided on Bellamy. We likely have...

I get the feeling that someone punditing at the euros or managing a team in the Olympics has been given the job and will be announced when their stint has finished.
I think the assistant manager appointment is to cover until the new manager is available.

This is what I have heard.

Suntan

Good point. In my opinion there is not really a big difference between 7-20..... each year there is usually one team that just destined for relegation, but it is cutthroat for the other spots. I believe at least 1 of the non newly-promoted teams get relegated this year. My bet is Leicester. I can s...

Forest got promoted last season on mainly loans hence their massive rebuild this summer.......

And Kompany has proven he can rebuild a squad if those on loan cannot be made permanent.

I'm happy with the loans especially the added quality they bring which we couldn't otherwise afford.

Suntan

Gutted about that. He’d have been immense. Tbf, good that we’re not relying on deals and have back up options. Can’t see this the attraction with this one though. Don’t think he’s scored a goal for Bournemouth & 4 in 28 or something for Galatasaray last term. For £850k!!! Would rather give Richards...

I think HWB could sign on permanently. Maatsen maybe. Tella almost no chance.

In an ideal world and we get promoted, I can easily see HWB and Maatsen coming back, Tella probably goes back to Southhampton.

Unless Saints are relegated.........

Suntan

Fairly sure BPF will want first team football. He's clearly behind Muric now and is unlikely to get many chances this season apart from maybe the cups. He's maybe pushing for a move for first team football and VK has said Ok but we need to sign a replacement first. Probably get a bit of cash for him...

Roberts will be great under Kompany as the fullbacks provide the width - we should see him played to his strengths and is a must keep. I've heard Lowton wants 1st team football and pretty sure we can't guarantee that. Plus he's probably on a very decent wage, probably too big for someone who is back...

Good point O'Hare and Twins should certainly bag a few at this level, plus Dwight if he stays will surely provide a goal threat. However I'd still prefer us to get a genuine striker if possible, be it on loan or perm, Jay might nab 10-12 over the course of the season fitness permitting, but Barnes ...

Suntan

I'm fairly sure that for the rebuild to happen this summer it was always the clubs intention to sell Collins, Pope, Cornet & possibly Dwight. I don't think any player has requested to leave, but the players were told that if offers came in for them they would be considered and most likely accepted. ...

Why not Cornet for central striker role?
