Why do I do it? I check this site, I check the BBC Sport transfers and gossip sites, I look at Twitter every 5 minutes ... I've supported Burnley since the 70s ... I know how it works, I know how the club do (or don't) do transfer business, YET still I look, yet still I have this faint glimmer of hope .. this time, maybe this time. Sigh!

There's more chance of finding Hobby horse Schite than the Clarets signing anybody useful today.

Managed to find a live stream showing the old test card that used to come on at the end of the day's tv programmes

Very exciting compared to our recruitment updates

No it's not an illness but it's enough to make you ill :)
