The first five pre-season then a few loans during the season plus O’Connor, Valois, Oster & Akinbiyi.

And we lost Blake and Chaplow in January. Amazing we weren't relegated, really.

Just what I was wondering.

My first thought was Costelloe but not sure if it is or if he even signed his new contract?

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Mon Jun 20, 2022 2:38 pm

It’s Bobby Thomas

Barnes is looking a lot leaner than he was start of last season.

Do the club not usually make a song and dance of the ‘lads’ being back when it’s the first day of pre-season? I would have thought they’d be all over it today particularly as it’s Kompany’s first real day in post. Nothing on social media, not even a mention.

Anything they’re being careful to hide before announcement (I.e, Bellamy, other coaches, Harwood-Bellis?!).

There could be an element of controlling information and therefore and approval process for what goes out before it can be posted?

I can’t honestly remember if they posted these things out same day or following day historically- I.e we get content produced today later on or tomorrow?

Maybe they want to do more about the coaching set up first as you say so May have a plan to start putting things out later this week? Today was only about getting the check ins etc.

You know that when there aren’t pics of certain players or your players, it’s all going to go crazy with speculation so maybe that also has something to do with what they are doing in terms of timings?

It was fitness testing, so wouldn't have been required, but I would be amazed if he wasn't around.

If no photo, I'd say it's pretty obvious he wasn't there.

I don't care if he was, or was not there, but he did say himself he would be here 2 or 3 days before pre season started.

eastcoastclaret · Post by **eastcoastclaret** » Mon Jun 20, 2022 5:27 pm

Perhaps it's just me, but I find it odd that almost a week after he joined us, we have had no photos published of him at the club, even on the day the players return.

I've tried to take all the positives from relegation..
If it takes a second season, that's life, Rome wasn't built in a day, but we just appear to be so far behind the curve, on what is already a very short mid season break.

Yes agree, Rome wasn't built in a day......but...Kompany wasn't around then or it would have been.
Keep the faith!

Any pictures of the new gaffa at work.

I heard a silly rumours today that he won't be in Burnley for another 2 weeks. I laughed it off but haven't seen him on any of the pictures posted.

Not sure what he earns but £30k a week = £4K a day.

£850 to someone earning what a footballer earns is like a £15 top to someone on £10 an hour.

Crikey, the new training gear is expensive!! We’ll need endless kit clearances until we sell it!

Hopefully in Wales on a golf course with Bellamy… convincing Bale to sign

Typical. He's spent three days at checki-in at Brussels airport, two days to clear UK immigration and now there's no bloody trains.

The fellow with grey hair who was on the coaching staff last year...I'm sure he's in the latest video,
plus Mike Jackson and other staff members.
Can't see a problem meself.
