As I have said before (on both the takeover and MMT threads) that only applies if you are carrying losses over the previous two years - which we were not Fair enough. Probably good practice to get the accounts signed off before the end of December in the event of having to submit them to the PL by ...

With regard to the MGG refinance in early January - it is notable that these accounts were signed off on December 19 2023 (normally it is around April 28th) this means that important events like the MGG refinance does not have to be mentioned in post date events or even that the address for Velocit...

We actually finished 10 points ahead of the Blades last season, another indicator of our regression this season.

It really isn't. It's an indicator of how far ahead the PL is of the Championship.

Considering they lost their best player to us,are in a mess behind the scenes, haven't really strengthened and weren't not a patch on us last season it really does highlight just how Kompany has spunked away a golden opportunity and some serious money. I don't necessarily disagree with the second p...

Remember when certain posters said that Sheff Utd look much stronger than we do at the moment?

Tall Paul

Here’s a thought… We’re going down. So are Sheffield United and barring any points deductions saving them, so are Luton. Let’s assume they don’t use any data analysis in their recruitment. I’m left wondering, as a fan, which of those three clubs would I be more excited about watching next year? Bur...

Tall Paul

Statistically it does have a considerable effect (especially for a club like us in our supposed financial position). I believe the stat is any team that achieved less than 23 points in a premier league season took at least 4 seasons to get promoted again. That would be absolutely massive for our cl...

But they have been punished? And will more than likely be punished again.

The punishment is probably the difference between finishing 14th and 16th, ie meaningless.

https://www.spotrac.com/epl/burnley-fc/payroll/ Does incorrectly state we signed Reguilon, so that has to be deducted from the £35m total at the bottom. Which do you think is inaccurate though? Some will be so I can guess it is higher. Even at £60-70m though you could envisage a healthy chunk of th...

Surely the point is that Sheff U at least put up a fight yesterday at Wolves and clearly had a structure within the team unlike under Heckinbottom
Burnley on the other hand ………

How much of a fight did they put up when they were losing their last two home games 5-0?

Yesterday's (obviously)

A game closer to being in an actual competitive football league next season is the main positive from last night.

The Championship didn't seem very competitive last season, but I suppose it's more fun when we're the team making it so.

Dundee actually have to have 19m spare to buy a player off us to start with which I don’t think many clubs in Scotland if any have that sort of money

They would have it spare after "receiving" £20m from Burnley in payment for their player.

That’s an interesting one. Couldn’t see him wanting to commit to a permanent deal with our league position and can’t see Forest helping out a rival with a loan deal. Europe beckons for him I think.

Forest wouldn't be helping us out, he's on loan there from MIlan.

We have just had VAR atrocities twice on the trot, costing us potentially 5 points, by Peter Bankes, who is either an Everton fan or a local because he has never reffed a Merseyside game. I know he is from Merseyside. Rob Jones, who was in charge of the atrocity at Forest, is also a Merseysider who...

Not sure how it's VAR's fault. Onfield officials should have called the foul

It's almost as if the opposition are somehow better than the teams we played last year and they aren't allowing us to play the way we did last season.

Who could have predicted that?

To be fair someone once argued with me that Chris Wood was going to start scoring in that last season because he was under preforming against his XG, that didn't go so well.

I think you'll find that was the season before and it did go well actually.

VAR. Still finding ways to disallow goals. Football is meant to be entertaining and that means goals. Finding ways to disallow them is wrong. Very wrong. To me the whole body should be offside not a small part of it. Its a farce really.

The gosl had already been disallowed though.

Tall Paul

Looked offside all the time to me, even when they showed the green line Rodriguez's head looked to be in front of it.

I'd rather they took the time to make the correct decision.

Camera angles aren't relevant as the lines are calibrated to the goal line.

If they can recall Travers from Stoke, then surely we can recall McNally. He came on for THB in this fixture last year and did well. He’s better than our current centre halves.

Different rules for goalkeepers, so we can't recall McNally.

Football depends on betting for a large chunk of its income (it shouldn't, but that's another story) and it's in the interests of the game to keep the betting market honest. Hence the ban on footballers betting on any match because it not only has to be honest, it has to be seen to be honest. There...
