Forgotten all about him, tbh.

Posted: **Sun Apr 13, 2025 6:15 pm**

Bad news…for many fans he was all they cared about.

Posted: **Sun Apr 13, 2025 6:15 pm**

Suggests that it isn't just an injury that's the problem. We wouldn't cut loose a player prior to the end of his contract just because he's injured I don't think.

We aren’t. It basically says that we won’t be offering him a new deal.

Why do people read something, and then interpret it as, something completely different?

I think its good we know-thank him for his service and we move on. A great player at his peak, and it was certainly worth a punt by the club.

In the event of promotion, and knowing Parker's like for experience, would like to see us at least exploit the option of Callum Wilson, who becomes a free agent in Summer at Newcastle

I suppose he might just score a couple of goals in the five he'll be fit for and that might just be enough to keep us up.

Well he always scores against us, it'd be good to see them going the other way.

Not sure we can afford massive wages for a player who is so injury prone.

Scored more PL goals than Chris Wood and would be free. I like Foster but surely Wilson would play more games than he has this season -he does know where the net, and goal scorers are like gold dust (and expensive).

Posted: **Sun Apr 13, 2025 10:14 pm**

Couldn’t stand Wilson, but that’s mainly because he scored against us all the time!

Wilson will end up at a bottom end prem club, not relegation candidates.

Posted: **Sun Apr 13, 2025 10:16 pm**

Might not be Callum Wilson, but I think we might benefit from an experienced goalscorer from somewhere. Someone who's natural instincts can help us, with turning chances into goals.

Posted: **Sun Apr 13, 2025 10:20 pm**

Have you seen Wilson every time he’s scored against us?No thanks.Gobshite.

Slim pickings on the current OOC prem players.

I know there’s a lot of criticism on here for going back to old players, but Mee on a 12 month deal would be a decent backup and great experience for some of the younger players.

Assuming Redmond and Barnes will be gone in the summer, it doesn’t leave many ‘old heads’ around.

Posted: **Sun Apr 13, 2025 11:31 pm**

Good luck to Mr Shelvey, in his quest for a new club.

Posted: **Mon Apr 14, 2025 1:38 am**

I seem to remember this post from January:

From a Turkish fan discussion on X (today) :

“Football had left Shelvey. He had spent the summer on vacation. Coach Arda played him for 5 minutes but couldn't stand it. He can't take more than 3 steps with the ball. His private life is far from that of the average athlete. We got rid of him in the quarter season. I don't want him to be a trouble to anyone in Turkey”

Posted: **Mon Apr 14, 2025 7:35 am**

I don’t care a jot about Shelvey

It should. But it always annoyed me because ‘all I care about it is Egan-Riley’ was a better fit anyway!

Posted: **Mon Apr 14, 2025 9:18 am**

I hope he was on a pay as you play contract.

Posted: **Mon Apr 14, 2025 9:54 am**

My initial prediction was he'd have the same impact for us as Gazza did, although I suspect in 20 years time we won't still be dissecting Shelvey's performances for us.

Don't know why it was never "All I care about is Burnley FC"

As that would have the song make some semi-kind of sense, as the gist would be it being no one player is bigger than the club.

Posted: **Mon Apr 14, 2025 11:04 am**

Weird signing didn't think it was ever going to work I'm sure that absolutely no one at the Turf will miss him .

Some decent OOC signings on there, would hate to see there demands though

Posted: **Mon Apr 14, 2025 11:22 am**

Pity he got injured because he looked class against Wednesday in a ten-minute cameo.

Posted: **Mon Apr 14, 2025 11:35 am**

I'm not convinced he actually got injured. That Preston performance was probably enough for anyone to see he ain't gonna cut it.

Unless he got injured walking on to the pitch

Posted: **Mon Apr 14, 2025 11:41 am**

Horrific signing like every one knew it would be.

We need to stay clear of old injury prone players. Sign young or in prime players. Quality not quantity.

We will always need to take the odd risk though.

Steven Defour was known to be injury prone, yet it worked out very well for us, and we would never get a player of his quality in a million years had he remained injury free all his career.

Posted: **Mon Apr 14, 2025 1:20 pm**

Ash needs to be retained in a player coach capacity.Jonjo could have worked out .

Posted: **Mon Apr 14, 2025 2:33 pm**

When Shelvey signed he potentially offered something different and we were in a period when creativity was lacking. His passing or set pieces could have made a difference. His stock on here grew after he played a long ball that went out for a throw in to the opposition. Apparently that fantastic pass was a statement to the manager. The signing has not worked out and now with the benefit of hindsight the signing is called out as being horrific and everyone knew at the time.

Read back through the threads on here before he signed. The majority didn't want to sign him.

No need thanks, forming my own opinion isn’t difficult for me.

When you say majority on here, you know that is roughly one percent of the Burnley fan base.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Trippier come back.

As a coach in some capacity, maybe. I love Barnes, but if we’re using him on the pitch next year then we’re in serious trouble.

He’s two years older than the last time we thought he couldn’t cut it in the Prem.

I think signing Shelvey was less of a risk, closer to a total FFFF up. Total waste of money, we should have got better... or nothing.

They've already named to ground after him.

If that falls through then New Trafford to Old Trafford.

Sorry.
Bedtime now.

He's looked really poor since coming back from this latest injury. He keeps getting wheeled on as he's after a milestone goal, but has never looked like scoring it, even against poor defences like Leicester and man u.
I can see him being given a penalty, getting the goal and then riding off into the sunset.
Osula ought to be on before him.

Is Shelvey still around. Not seen him in any of the promotion celebrations. Wonder if there was a fall out following the Preston game

Posted: **Thu Apr 24, 2025 12:44 pm**

I don't know what really happened to Shelvey,he's was a complete waste of time.Barnes in no way should be retained as a player,be could barely cope in the championship let alone the Prem.A coach possibly,not a player though.

Posted: **Thu Apr 24, 2025 1:07 pm**

I live on North Tyneside and my neighbour bumped into him when they were taking their respective lads to junior football over a month ago so he has been up for a while now.

Seems we did a good deal whereby he had to stay fit to remain employed.

We should give the club more credit sometimes.
