Eloquent informative

My word, mocked by a guy who mainly contributes to this board with a barrage of one or two word responses with a few emojis or a screen shot of a quiz score he’s more than likely had to take three or four times to get a respectable score.

Looks like ClaretAL had a few too many last night. In his shame this morning as he woke up and headed downstairs for a glass of water and two paracetamol, I suspect he panicked as he recalled starting a topic on this forum, but his memory was a little fuzzy and he couldn’t quite remember what he pos...

Two seasons ago. He resumed his under-23 duties last summer.

Did you hear what the problems were? I was told some information but I’m not sure how accurate it was. I assume some form of internal process was followed and everything was ok now he’s back working for the club.

djemba-djemba

Wasn’t there some sort of issue with Stone whilst he was working with the under 23s?

Should we beat Denmark, I’d be delighted to go to extra time with Italy. Imagine the fresh legs of Grealish, Foden, Sancho or whoever of the attacking players don’t start to come on against that lot. They looked done after 90 minutes. Of course you may argue and say they held out during extra time, ...

Why would Casper go on holiday during pre season?

He must have known Jimmy was going to be the man to take us out the doldrums.

Great bloke, chewed my ear off many a time when I’d visit pubs local to Padihams ground, there was a picture of him on the wall in his weight lifting days in one of the pubs, that pub shut many years ago now so not sure of the name. Lovely man and I’d always give him my time as I enjoyed his compan...

Always good for a tale about the mines or anything Padiham related.

RIP Rupert.

Does anyone else enjoy reading through the first page of this thread and laugh at all the mugs who Southgate is humiliating?

Here’s what I think happened:

You’d had 5 cans of Carling
You posted the above message
You put your cd on quietly and listened to the first three tracks
Checked this forum after 15 minutes of posting this topic and saw nobody responded
You poured most of your sixth can down the sink and went to bed

We do, Barnes could be one of the biggest cheats in the league. We also play act with fouls, injuries etc and waste time. We may not be at the same level as some teams, but we do it. But we have to, because if we didn't other teams would have an unfair advantage. Unsurprisingly people seem to think...

That’s him dropping a bollock in the next game after this thread.

Do you ever have anything positive to say? On this thread alone you really have made me wonder if your a venky keyboard warrior. It was a simple question to a statement someone made. They claimed he would be sat on the bench at Liverpool and I don’t think he would. Perhaps you’d like to answer it.....

I know. But you wouldn't come here to sit on the bench when you can do that at Liverpool.

Would he even make the bench at Liverpool next season?

No chance he comes here on loan just to sit on the bench.

That’s all our loan signings do.

I just hope we are actually going to sign a winger and not rely on Brownhill playing there.

Prepare for disappointment.

djemba-djemba

There are also certain posters on here who make out contract extensions are done before there is any official news when they have merely heard a rumour from someone connected at the club.

djemba-djemba

I’m very much looking forward to the game.

Hopefully we put in a good performance and progress to shut all those people on here up who were saying they’d rather watch paint dry than England (who will more than likely be glued to their tv like the rest of us).

Like everyone else, I was occasionally on the wrong end of Stan’s anger but generally got on very well with him.

A typical Stan answer. I spoke to him on the phone earlier this year and he seemed fine.

I thought he didn’t like you?

I seem to remember an interview where he publicly humiliated you by name didn’t he?

Hi dj 2 , yes, I feel Sean Dyche let the emotion of the season being suspended and then re-started "get to him" last June/July. Possibly, also influenced by the possibility of the club changing ownership and Sean Dyche's personal experience of new owners coming in at Watford while he was "starting ...

djemba-djemba

We all know, or should know, that Sean Dyche doesn't like talking about all the stuff that may or may not be going on "behind the scenes" at the club. This has always been the case with transfer rumours, whether it concerns incoming or outgoing players. We also know that Sean Dyche doesn't speak pu...

djemba-djemba

Fully agree -however SD will know quite simply that another window with no signings is going to be a dog fight, and a strong possibility of relegation-the last thing he will want on his CV. You are quickly and easily forgotten in that case-ie Chris Wilder He’s already got a relegation on his CV - a...

djemba-djemba

If Sean Dyche had a much deeper squad and better quality players in key areas, then perhaps his bonus for just surviving in the PL wouldn't need to be quite so generous? ;) Agreed. I mentioned in a different thread - as nobody else ever seems to want him when vacancies open up, why do we need to pa...

djemba-djemba

So if he’s not committing now on what you would assume are increased wages in the new contract drawn up - when‘s the time to withdraw the offer? Looks like he might be waiting for a better offer from another club. If nobody is going in for him then why should we pay him anymore than he already gets ...

In the 2018-19 season he mustered up 29 appearances for them so wasn’t exactly in the wilderness. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bailey_Peacock-Farrell Yep, that link there tells you he wasn’t good enough for Leeds in the Championship.

Didn’t he play for Leeds in the championship?

Briefly whilst he was the only senior keeper they had. As soon as the transfer window opened they got someone else in and he was benched from then on.

Would allow BPF to go out on loan for regular first team football in championship.

That guy isn’t even Championship quality.

I can’t find any link but was there an article published on here recently where it referenced a guy writing to the paper about us wasting money on that young lad Walsh around that time?

Was he signed up for the 91/92 season? If so, looks like the guy who wrote the letter was right!

djemba-djemba

Whilst we are taking about goalkeepers in the 90’s - why was there such a glut of loan signings in the championship season when David Williams put in a wonderful performance against us for Rochdale. Could we not just have recalled him and put him in instead of Pearce? How many did we use that year? ...

djemba-djemba

It seems an awful lot of money for 1992 and the division we were in.

I was watching a video of one of the full games from the 4th division championship season and the commentator came out with that bit of info.

Afternoon friends,

Did Burnley really bid £100,000 for Lee Bracey from Halifax in 1992 when we were struggling for a proper keeper?

Nothing like what’s happened tonight but it’s 45 years ago this year that I was knocked unconscious playing cricket and my airways were blocked. Thankfully a team mate, a friend and a poster on this board knew what to do. You didn’t get much luck playing cricket did you? Knocked unconscious and str...

Who is the greatest pro to have played in that division?

Big Rom. Remember when he made our centre halves look like weak little boys in a game against Utd at the Turf a couple of years ago.

Excellent from the referee too in realising that quick medical attention was needed and getting the staff on the pitch so quickly.

Do they know if they’ve managed to stabilise him? I’m watching in a restaurant with the sound off. It’s heartbreaking to see :( No update.

The managerial situation isn’t uncertain. We have a manager under contract.

If it’s that simple then there’s no need for us to give him all this extra money he’s after in his wage packet then.

djemba-djemba

2 year deal

New nippy full back/ winger who will be nearly 40 when his contract expires (might actually make it to 40 cause we’d probably offer him another new one at the end of it).

Good grief, if young comes to Burnley he starts every single game (fitness permitted)

That’s what the poster I quoted seemed to suggest.

djemba-djemba

Even if he just takes on a Matt Taylor type role for us, being a throw of the dice off the bench to bring on for his delivery, at least it gives us another option with some real quality. Good grief, spending £50k a week on a throw of the dice squad player to occasionally come off the bench now and ...

If and when he signs a new deal I’m confident it will be at a significantly higher pay than his current deal.

I hope it’s not a significant increase. The guy already gets paid loads as it is.
