Cool, that makes sense. From My perspective I enjoyed the fact that the club didn’t buy into all of the myths about football… that you could only play one way, that you had to spend huge money on over valued footballers with questionable morals and attitudes, and I enjoyed that hard work, endeavour,...

Absolutely. Arsenal, I'd argue, are favourites to win the league and, off today's showing, are a much better all-round side than Liverpool or City. Their midfield is incredibly strong, the best of the lot. Great news…. You’ve found the investment opportunity of the year, because Arsenal are actuall...

Interesting isn’t it, in my 24 years of watching Burnley, I’ve never felt as associated.

What are the elements that make you feel so associated? What are the values, morals, approaches etc that align with how you see football?

dandeclaret

You don’t understand what I’m getting at? It’s really simple: the other teams around us, that are not in the relegation zone, have spent more than us over the last two years. Maybe not all more than us last summer but definitely over the last two. Thats no excuse, it’s just fact. £96m is a lot to u...

Agreed Dave, put simply England have no idea how to play 5 day test cricket.

How’s their record been? Under this no idea how to play test cricket theory?

Their problem is they pick a small number of players who are not good enough…. Namely Bairstow.

Will The Yorkshire lads actually contribute anything positive at any stage…. Big drops and no runs is all

India a man down now as Ashwin has had to leave the game.

Seems to be a growing rumour that Stokes will allow them to make a like for like substitute and Washington Sundar will play.

You’ve got to be positive at times, Dan. Take Ben Duckett for example. What a glorious innings and now looking set for a 150… perhaps even a double century. Positivity breeds positivity

At the age of 14 Steve Cotterill wrote to the FA to request for him to be included in a match day squad - that was refused At the age of 14 he was playing in the youth team, which at the time was an under 19's league, as it was still possible to be on 3 year scholarships.

India win by 106 runs . Pretty poor show from Eng attempting to get a last innings total of almost 400 in a test in India by playing Bazball Or - a pretty amazing effort to get relatively close to a target that nobody realistically expected them to achieve. 2 tests in, both effectively decided by a...

for those calling out VK...............have a look at Eddie Howe. Early part of his career he simply couldn't organize a defence, it was all about outscoring the opposition.

the one that tickles me is the "Kompany has had loads of money and Luton are above us' If it was about money as they all claim it to be then why aren't Chelsea top and Luton bottom ?

Just checked Costelloe out of contract at the end of the season. BPF out of contract but there's an option of a further year - not sure either party would execute that.

Move Twine and BPF into the second category and rename that category "whether they come back depends on whether we get a suitable offer which gives us a profit" and I think that is about right. Twine and BPF I think might be options next season, e.g. if Trafford is sold BPF presumably comes into ou...

dandeclaret

My guess would be

BPF, Roberts, Weghorst, Twine, Egan-Riley, Churlinov, Bastien - aren't likely be back at Burnley

Mcnally, Costellor and Obafemi - won't be back if can be sold for a profit

Zaroury, Mellon and Dodgson - likely to return

Odds reflect what bets have been placed. If I put £1 million on us to stay up today, the odds will change massively. Not because the chances of us staying up have changed, but because the bookmakers need to cover my bet in case it wins. Odds reflect the betting patterns, not reality. Hence why the ...

A few potential insights on this. 1) Kompany doesn't do community stuff..... flip side, the Gary Neville interview, Bellamy Podcasts, Kompany himself - explains his work ethic and amount of time spent at the club working on football.... appears to be more than any managers around. If so, it leaves l...

If there's not an awareness, they could always look at the betting markets. Burnley are median price 1/6 to be relegated... or there is around an 86% likelihood of relegation happening.

For a start, 111m euros is £95m. Quite a few of them are also incorrect. Ramsey was £12m, not £14m. Amdouni’s €18m will undoubtedly include bonus clauses. Odobert was reported at €11m not 12.
