Apologies if this has already been cleared up but did we ever see the Vitinho cash from this bunch of chancers? I haven't seen any updates recently

CalamityClaret

Absolutely gutted with this one. Really wanted to see how he'd cope in the PL along side Esteve. He didn't fancy it so that's up to him. As someone said above I wish him no good luck or ill will. Who cares how he does. That is football

CalamityClaret

Admittedly I haven't seen much of him but going off both play off games Bellingham has been very disappointing

Please excuse me being an accountancy simpleton but since the takeover are we paying off the debt, is it increasing or do we simply not know? If the greater minds could answer that it would be really appreciated.

You’d imagine selling Trafford and/or Esteve this summer, in addition to the £88m of player sales in the current year and PL money, should see us on the right side of the line regrading PSR.

True but what an awful blow that would be.

Go Plymouth on Saturday and cheer on the pastie boys

Plymouth is in Devon

CalamityClaret

What a crap report. Mentions nothing about his ability to defend

CalamityClaret

Norwich spent £9 mill 1st time they were promoted and £40mill the second time. He never stood a chance with that level of investment in the squad. Truly awful if they sack him

CalamityClaret

Zero interest. One step up from that YouTube fighter nonsense

Does anyone even think Jobe Bellingham would leave Sunderland to come to us anyway? Laughable.

If we get promoted and not too many others are pulling up trees to get him then it's not out of this World. He's hardly set the World on fire at Sunderland

CalamityClaret

Excuse my ignorance please but is Banel a home grown lad and what position? Thanks

CalamityClaret

I'm chucking in the Arsenal winner that was handball and offside in the 97th min after they'd shown 4 mins of extra time. Still grind my teeth over that

Sky sports news. Very odd

CalamityClaret

The person who dressed the Sky Sports presenter right now. He seems to be dressed as a Russian peasant for some reason

Ok thanks for letting me know

Does the bloke from Mauritius still post on here? I remember him helping out a number of people through this forum with advice re his home island. I think he he was called Dave.

The chicken theme has been in KFC for a number of years. I noticed it after lockdown but I'd just moved back to the country. The broad theme seems to be that they're happy to associate chicken (the animal) with chicken (the meat). The current advert(s) are an extension of this theme. It's infintiel...

My dad took the 6 year old me on that day. Still calls it the most terrifying day of his life. Didn't take me on again for a few years

I'm not normally a gambling man but I've won a good few quid betting on a Burnley not to concede over a couple of months. Normally go bigger on (£50) nil nil but cover it with 1 nil and 2 nil. Kiss off death probably but I'll be doing the same tonight. I've never bet on Burnley before this season an...

Fergie set up the youth system that brought them together and brought them along. A small part might be fortune but mostly it was hard work and judgement - much of it directly attributable to Fergie. Not only did he set up the scouting network, he also set up the coaching teams and instilled the cu...

CalamityClaret

Has any manager in history been gifted the talent of Giggs, Sharpe, Scholes, Neville x 2, Butt and Beckham? A truly superb manager, of that there is no doubt. He didn't half get lucky with that lot from the youth team though.

How is Shelvey supposed to get match fit when he’s not playing any u23 matches or making our bench?

Just leggit around. Be fit as a fiddle in no time

CalamityClaret

Very comfortable defensively. Foster, Brownhill and especially Laurent need to show much much more

The whole area of Turf Moor and Fulledge has a fascinating sporting history. It was/is a very flat area of town being the flood plane for the river Calder which made it perfect for a horse racing track, an athletics track (Athletic street), a cricket ground and ultimately a football ground/stadium....

He turned and accelerated to throw off his marker superbly. He was a real joy to watch

CalamityClaret

We're only Joshing

CalamityClaret

I can't think why you would want to go. Not a nice place. Royal Leamington Spa, Warwick and Stratford upon Avon are near by and lovely towns. Try them

CalamityClaret

Hannibal you absolute prick

CalamityClaret

That was so negative its ridiculous. The amount of back passes whilst in their half is really poor to watch

Koleosho - - Runs at players at speed and dribbles past them - Causes the opposition to double mark him leaving space for others - Is young - Can score - Has shown he can do this at PL level All this in a team without defined strikers or those who know what positions to be in to receive the ball fr...

I think the only logical explanation is contractually we can’t play him without owing his former club more cash.

That is definitely not the only logical explanation

CalamityClaret

He's being played out of position, no two ways about it. It's unfair to judge his performances because of that. All this nonsense about getting credit for running over and supporting His team mates is a load of turd though. Like any of them are in any danger of being attacked. Just more likely to be...

CalamityClaret

Fantastic 2nd half. Constantly dangerous and solid as a brick wall. Superb away support too. What a good day

CalamityClaret

Strange change. Thought we were utterly dominant this half

Thats the same with most subscription TV services... they only offer it once though if you keep threatening you're leaving they don't bother

So if you do it once it would save £89. Never mind.

I have NowTV with Sky Sports etc and they have never shown 3pm Saturday games

If you have Sky sports+ with Now and go through the subscription cancelling process they will offer you £20 per month for 6 months to stay. That's all I was saying

CalamityClaret

My mistake, sorry.

CalamityClaret

It might help someone

CalamityClaret

I don't know if this would help anyone but I've just cancelled my subscription for the above. I thought they were showing all our 3pm games. Not the case but it is what it is. I was offered £20 per month for 6 months to stay rather than the usual £34.99. I cancelled anyway but it might be of interes...

Was ridiculous

CalamityClaret

That pass from Anthony from ridiculous when we're trying to break out and no one bollocking him. We are so lacking that type of leadership

My son is in Vietnam teaching English. He would be over the moon with a signed Barnes shirt if it's still available?

1st com 1st served I suppose. email me your address and I'll post it tomorrow burnleychris1972@gmail.com

Thought I'd added pics but it didn't work for some reason. Size M btw

CalamityClaret

Just found a signed Barnes shirt at the bottom of a drawer just gathering dust. Free to someone who would genuinely want it and not just sell it on

CalamityClaret

Why!!! Why on earth take an attacking fullback off for a more defensive minded one. Criminally negative. Get a striker on now !
