[Vino blanco]

Will we now be known as “Vincent Kompany’s Burnley”?

[Steve1956]

Great footballer
Great man

Exciting times.

[Andreshotboots]

Vincent who?

[Belgianclaret]

Always safe in the hands of a Belgian

Lets hope the backroom staff will click

[ClaretTony]

Nothing as yet on any backroom staff, no length of contract confirmed.

[Jamesy]

At last. Phew!

[Murger]

Thank god that's sorted.

Welcome to Burnley and wishing you every success, Vincent.

[AwayClaret]

Welcome Mr Kompany. Now get us in to a winning habit again.

[Dark Cloud]

Damn! Just been down this morning and put £25 on Rooney! (Gutted!)

[DukeOfBar]

Progressive appointment, something we needed in my opinion.

Great news, exciting times ahead!

[JR1882]

Love the video too, fantastic.

Nice flash of Barnfield from the air on Dyches segment too as his legacy.

Onwards and upwards now.

[MrVmax]

Na na na na naaaa big vince big vince
Welcome Vincent , here’s hoping for yours and our success

[Tall Paul]

Welcome. If you're half as successful as the bloke you're replacing you'll have done a good job.

[Rowls]

Welcome. If you're half as successful as the bloke you're replacing you'll have done a good job.

11.5, 11.5 undefeated...

[DCWat]

I have my reservations but now he’s here, they’re put to one side. With a little bit of luck, hopefully he’ll prove to be a very astute appointment. Best of luck, VK.

[Pearcey]

Great stuff. UTC.

[MrTopTier]

Nice one. Welcome Vinnie. UTC

[RVclaret]

Really good news. I was happy with VK coming in the Prem, even happier he’s here with us in the Champ. Looking forward to see what philosophy he brings.

[ClaretTony]

Welcome. If you're half as successful as the bloke you're replacing you'll have done a good job.

The first time I met Dyche we were stood by a pic of Harry Potts in the old Centre Spot and he asked who it was. I told him and then said virtually the same words to him as you've just posted. I think he more than managed that.

[Quicknick]

Big Vince's claret and blue army!

[clive40golf]

Craig Bellamy will be assistant manager.

[Roosterbooster]

Delighted. it works out...

[RammyClaret61]

Vincent Kompanys claret n blue army.

Few extra syllables in there, hopefully slows the CFS down a bit!!

Welcome to Turf Moor VK.

[BurnleyFC]

Nice to see that Alan’s laryngitis has cleared up, too.

[Guller Bull]

Lets hope it's Good Kompany not a five finger death punch.

Looks like a positive appointment and for Kompany to achieve his ultimate ambition of managing City he’ll need to promote us so win win. The overwhelming feeling is relief because I’m not sure where we would have turned if he had walked away from the job.

[RVclaret]

“I’ve been impressed by the board’s vision for the club which aligns with my own & I look forward to playing my part as we enter an important season”

Kompany is a smart bloke, the fact he’s said this speaks volumes, to me.

[Murger]

He must've been promised a fair wedge. No way he comes in if we're only signing loan players.

[AwayClaret]

“I’ve been impressed by the board’s vision for the club which aligns with my own & I look forward to playing my part as we enter an important season”

Kompany is a smart bloke, the fact he’s said this speaks volumes, to me.

Well he's not going to say "we haven't got a pot to **** in but we'll see where we end up"
Just kidding RV

[MACCA]

This is how it feels to be Bastards
This is how it feels to be small
We get Kompany
They get Tomasson... who?
Tomasson ....who?

[Tall Paul]

Is this appointment subject to a work permit?

[ClaretInLeeds]

Here’s to you, Vincent Kompany
Burnley loves you more than you will know
Oh, oh, oh
Here’s to you, Vincent Kompany
Burnley loves you more than you will know
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh!

[Rowls]

Here’s to you, Vincent Kompany
Burnley loves you more than you will know
Oh, oh, oh
Here’s to you, Vincent Kompany
Burnley loves you more than you will know
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh!

There was a song about Liam Robinson printed in a fanzine back in the mid 90s.

They had, "The Longside loves you more than you will know," which scans better. It won't stop the CFS messing it up at a million miles an hour though.

[Bigvince]

At last my name has meaning to some of the younger supporters

[Hipper]

“I’ve been impressed by the board’s vision for the club which aligns with my own & I look forward to playing my part as we enter an important season”

Kompany is a smart bloke, the fact he’s said this speaks volumes, to me.

What did Cotterill say when he got the job?

[Bigvince]

Na na na, na na bigvince bigvince!

[It Is What It Is]

Welcome to Turf Moor Vincent.
Quality appointment.
Great experience and football knowledge.
Well Done Alan Pace as well. .
You have inherited the most passionate football fans ever.
Now then, get us some quality players and back in the Prem.
Well Happy.

[clarethomer]

Great to get it confirmed finally.

Welcome to Burnley Vincent!

[spt_claret]

For a couple of years I considered Kompany the best centre back in the world.
Would settle for "one of the best" as manager.
Welcome aboard Vince and best of luck.

[JohnMcGreal]

Fantastic news. Welcome to the club, Vincent.

[AlargeClaret]

At last , finally done and dusted . It’s a positive appointment and let’s hope Pace gives him decent funds to work with .

[ElectroClaret]

Thank Christ it's over the line.
Welcome, VK.
