I'll eat my hat if Muric isn't sold soon. Suprised any Burnley supporter thinks otherwise after we made two reasonably high profile signings in that department in this window. BPF apparantly wants first team football too. I believe Vigoroux was signed as our 2nd choice keeper and we'll have a decisi...

Some serious money spent now by our standards. Beyer 13m O'Shea 7m Amdouni 15m Obafemi 3m Trafford 15m +4m Vigeroux Free Still likely... Koleosho 3m Redmond Free That would take us to 56m+4m. An amount of money I never expected I'd see Burnley spend in one window. Surely we can't have too much left...

Whatever lock you get make sure you keep it lubricated with wd40 or similar.
Never put WD40 inside a lock. It's a solvent, not a lubricant. It will clean away the oil and grease and can attract dirt - it will shorten the life span of your lock.
