Name mentioned in hospitality again today VK is no longer a fit. Investors are getting nervous.

Too much booze in hospitality then

[RVclaret]

I'd feel more confident with him in charge.

This prating around at the back and trying to be a poor man's Man. City isn't going to work.

wait till you find out Potter’s football is the definition of ‘prating around at the back’.

That's not how I saw his philosophy, but hey ho.

[getbennyon]

This is the worst Burnley team we've fielded in the Premier League era, a million miles away from being competitive and £130 million has pretty much been flushed down the toilet.

I've no idea who would come based on our team/league position but a Laws appointment would be as good as it gets. The damage is done and the financial ramifications will hit home over the next 18 months.

[Vegas Claret]

No one cares what I think, but I say it anyway!

as is your right mate, everyone is entitled to their opinion

[Vegas Claret]

nobody is remotely happy, just some of us aren't reactionary that's all

[fidelcastro]

I'm not wrong though!

Any link to Kompany’s post match interview available yet?

[Newchurch Claret]

Relegation is inevitable. The evidence is in front of us each week. Nothing has changed and nor will it. We’re just miles off being good enough for the Prem.

What amazes me most is this arrogant idea some have that we’ll come straight back. This squad has no chance whatsoever of coming straight back up. Just like the Prem is far stronger than when we were last here, so will the Championship be.

Expecting that we’ll come straight back up is as misguided as thinking we were going to finish in the top 10 this season. Kompany and the board have made a complete pig’s ear of it and that’s a real shame.

[brexit]

Too much booze in hospitality then

Bizarrely, no, at least half of those present on soft drinks.
The conversation as I can remember went like this, "we have three scorers on the roster. *** is too old and slow. *** won't play for the club again, at least this season. We need to find a way to make Vincent play obafemi and build the attack around him the way Jesse did at Leeds"
I think that was what was said, I had had too much whiskey at this point.

[brexit]

I agree don't want him, but he is next in line.

They obviously didn't realise that obafemi has been injured, so couldn't have played him, even if he'd wanted to

I think whoever suggested building an attack around Obafemi had also had too much whiskey.

[Vegas Claret]

I'm not wrong though!

time will tell, I hope you are wrong though

From what I've been told the board are already planning for a return to the Championship but are already asking what additions we'd need to return to the top flight rather than expecting us to walk the Championship with the current squad. I think there is a real recognition of how hard that league is

I’m not really Kompany Out, but it’s hard right now. He’s so determined to play this style, and his recruitment as been shocking really overall. The fact he’s committed the club to almost £100m in the process really has me wondering at what point do the owners pull the trigger? It’s getting embarrassing, regardless of the performances improving.

[Conroysleftfoot]

Evidently we have just equalled the worst start at home by any team in the Football League, 7 losses by Newport County in the 1970-71 season. I just hope we can manage to get more than the 11 points that Derby achieved in the Prem.

[kenyon6923]

The other annoying thing is I think some of these home games we "played teams at the right time"
Even City very 1st game and they lose De Bryne after 18 minutes was a good time. Chelsea was a good time to play them, Man Uts good time to play them. West Ham and Palace were bang average but nothing has gone right for whatever reason.
Maybe SD was a lot cleverer than what we thought and he realised to play another style we needed alot of quality with experience players that we could never afford.

Precisely, I'm in the if 'if he goes, you can't argue that it is a shock' camp

Usually I avoid this forum after a defeat, but it’s actually cheered me up a bit tonight. Amazing imagination.

They can't afford to. This group of players are little use to anyone else. VK, or whoever sanctioned the signing of all these young players/wingers and Trafford at once has really messed up. All we cam do in Jan is realise the enormous cock up and sign a few players like a Craig Dawson and a younger Jack Cork and a real ratter in cm.

This squad and manager should have more than enough to come back up.

We’ll lose some players - Beyer, Al Dakhil, Berge, Brownhill, Benson, Amdouni, to name a few - but should still have enough to come straight back up.

Squad seems weaker this season than it did last, not to mention taking a massive gap out of the spine of the team with your predicted departures. No where near good enough to assume we come straight back up.

[Westleigh]

We’re like one of the teams my lad used to play against when he played for Barrowford Celtic under 14 teens ,I think they were called Chipping everybody liked them and they lost every game of the season,3-0 was probably their best loss,we could be one of the Questions in football quizzes in 50 yrs time ,Which is the only team to lose every home game and not reach 10 points in a season? Might be worth giving William Hills a call.

[Jacob Rees Dogg]

Bolts from above hit the people below.

[Burnleyareback2]

As good as being mentioned in Shafi’s Nelson

[MACCA]

It would take more than sticking an R there to sort your spelling out.

Written on the hike up James Anderson Way in freezing temperatures on ones phone.

So apologies, however the fact all you picked out from the post was a few wrong hit letters on my keyboard means the post was correct.

But we all know that, as I'm rarely wrong.

[Raconteur]

the way Jesse did at Leeds"

What did Jesse do at Leeds?

[Newcastleclaret93]

I said serious

Jesse marsch is a better manager than VK

[KRBFC]

This squad has no chance whatsoever of coming straight back up.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

A better squad than the one we had last season has no chance at coming straight back up?

Cullen, Al Dakhil, Roberts, Zaroury and the rest might be poor in the PL but we’ve seen their ability in the league below. Just stop with the nonsense

If we go down - it's looking likely but not inevitable - saying we have no chance whatsoever of going back up with this squad is the only thing more stupid than saying we'll definitely get promoted.

[Vegas Claret]

is he, Leeds had a miles better team than we do and look what happened, I'd say you are way off the mark

[Newcastleclaret93]

Vegas even you don’t believe that nonsense.

Marsch is a considerably better manager than VK. Let’s not forget VK currently has one of the worst ever premier league records.

[Vegas Claret]

Vegas even you don’t believe that nonsense.

with a much better side full of experienced players he won 11 in 37 games, 2 in his last 17

So yeah, Marsch is a fallacy

[Clovius Boofus]

It wouldn't take him long to start banging on about sacking Marsch.

[Newcastleclaret93]

So your defence of VK is that Marsch can build a competent team?

The squad were worth roughly the same amount. We also had players with prem experience VK just chooses not to play them.

Marsch ppg would keep this squad up at a canter. VK will be lucky to get 12 points this season currently.

we'll agree to disagree.

But, then again, Newcastle, he wouldn't.
We'll never know, thank God.

Absolute nonsense making definitive statements that Marsch would keep us up at a canter.

[Newcastleclaret93]

But, then again, Newcastle, he wouldn't.

I really don’t get that Eddie? Why wouldn’t you want a manager with a decent record? His PPG record if he could replicate it would keep us up with points to spare.

[Newcastleclaret93]

If he replicated his Leeds PPG he would

[taio]

If he replicated his Leeds PPG he would

If being the operative word!

[Raconteur]

If he replicated his Leeds PPG he would

If and it's a big if, Jesse Marsch came in and somehow managed to get the same ppg that he had at Leeds would bring in 25.7 more points. This would leave us short of 30 points. You do make a lot of assumptions.

[Raconteur]

If he replicated his Leeds PPG he would

Also, if this scenario played out in real life and not your mind. Who would we finish above to stay up?

You have already stated that Everton won't go down and if ppg is such a guarantee, surely we wouldn't even finish above Bournemouth as Iraola has a ppg of 0.92 which in turn means he will get another 25 points by the end of the season.

[Dark Cloud]

Graham Potter maybe ?

Harry Potter couldn't turn this season round. I just wish it could end tomorrow and we start again in The Championship. It's become tedious and somewhat embarrassing and as others have said, I'm not enjoying one minute of my match day experience, including the few pints I sink in the pub with mates before the games. Half of them aren't even turning up and the atmosphere in town beforehand is completely flat.
