Agree, but it could easily gave been Brady for JBG. I thought Bards was superb today. Just love his aggression, but Lowton has better delivery.

Collins would be a good signing for the future. I just really hope we sign a player for the now. Still think Right Mid or a more creative CM is critical this window

Should have signed Dawson last window and someone like Collins now. Would have ready for when Tarky had to go.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - Phil Jones would be a great fit for us. I hope it happens in this transfer window.

Craig Dawson has also looked quality at West Ham so it’s no surprise we chased him for so long.

Dawson was a no brainer last window.

The current bottom three look doomed..hope so.

Fulham are far from doomed imo.

summitclaret

That is why we won't go down, despite the ridiculousness of the summer window.

Lowton was mom for me, marked Roberston out of the game for most parts, for me that was his best performance fir us

He did the same at OT last season.

We've scored 9 goals all season.

You have completed missed the point Dwight has been average at best, but last game looked back to near his best. Maybe he has been carrying an injury for a long time?

summitclaret

Why don't we all calm down and wait and see what our strikers can do with service from a rejuvenated Dwight and Charlie.

summitclaret

I honestly don't know anyone who is content on us getting relegated. I know little about our new owners but the early signs give me little confidence that they have the financial clout, to go long haul If we go down there is only 1 reason and that is the mindboggling decision to start the season wi...

summitclaret

Westwood needs to take the free kicks when we put our cbs up. Robbie puts them too high and slow. Or get Dwight on for the last 20 minutes.

summitclaret

Wood will score tonight.

summitclaret

All available except CT. Great news.

summitclaret

It only 20/25 mins down the M65 to Leyland centre.

summitclaret

Villa v Spurs off. Spurs will play Fulham on weds night at 20.15.

summitclaret

A good read.

Totally agree that Wood did not foul Keogh.

Benson looks much more comfortable in cm. I can see something in Glennon and Joel.

Relieved that JBG and Cork appear to be unscathed.

Exactly my point. Like I say - sort the midfield and we'll score more goals.

Wood, Barnes and Jay are proven goalscorers in the PL. The goals will come. The top priority has to be a right--footed winger, to ensure Dwight can't be triple marked.

I'm baffled.

I was amazed when the red card came out but there is absolutely no doubt that it was a free kick to us. Where on earth does he get a free kick from for them?

I am amazed that anyone can see Wood commits a foul.

How far does £50m go for a proven prem replacement CB with wages, transfer fees etc? Also, given that our monthly outgoings are in the region of £10 p/m according to last financial statements, is it not more likely that given COVID/possible relegation we were being prudent and could be under the as...

summitclaret

Exactly, FF. I swore blind in summer that some/all of the £42m would still exist and could possibly have grown. I also argued that there would be institutions willing to lend if we felt that necessary short-term. Got shot to pieces by some. Turns out, if this story is to be believed, that not only ...

It's not just SU though is it. He came back good ths FA Cup last year and we hardly saw him again. Madness to risk him.

This is not the year to make any progress in cups. Trust me, play the reserves.

I really thought he would be more optimistic about January signings.

If anything it sounded like nothing at all had changed. Not expecting anything this window after that.

Are we going to rely on JBG and Robbie being fit? Surely not.

summitclaret

Defo Huckerby, Goater and Fuller.

summitclaret

On the other thread, our new Chairman is quoted as saying that they nearly pulled out on occasions. 1 point after 6 games must have been a massive concern. The reason we had only 1 point was because we had no central defence to speak of and no proper attacking option on the right side. I will never ...

I would presume that one way or another it'll be BFC.

No wonder we started the season with extremely poor options at centre back and right midfield. We seem to be pulling our way out of trouble, but if we don't the reason will be because of the above.

summitclaret

Sadly this season I have to agree, if we were higher in the league I might think differently, but PL survival has to take precedence. I'd hope next season if we get a deeper squad then we might be able to have a real crack at one or both domestic cups. Well Westwood should not play and anyone else ...

summitclaret

Impressed with them so far. If you are reading this Alan, please try now to talk Tarks into signing a new contract with us. If he won't, please bring in his eventual replacement in this window. Also, virtually every BFC fan knows that we need a right-footed wide midfielder desperately and we need hi...

Lingard on loan?

summitclaret

Time to shut the schools for a while. Once things get back to normal, they should be open 9 to 5. I'd make it a permanent change.

This year, I'd half the summer holidays as well, to enable catch up.

summitclaret

In the next month - just sign a right-footed winger, with pace who can put the ball on Woody's head. That would correct a ridiculous error last Summer.

Yer take the points for sure now Fulham will be a much different game

The game could be in doubt,due to Covid at Fulham, according to Sky News.

summitclaret

Definitely one of our best signing in recent years. Exactly what we need to try and do moving forwards. I know it's much harder now to get these future gems from the Championship, but hopefully we can do it again.

summitclaret

That was as typical a Burnley performance as you will see. Only spoilt by an inexperienced challenge. They never got near us. Brilliant organisation and Taylor was the exemplar. We managed Adama expertly and the Petiers sub was super. Thought it should have been Bards for Dwight though. That should ...

summitclaret

Agree in many ways, but I think realists will see that whilst current ownership has kept us punching (albeit due only to the retention of Dyche).....a very major factor in the recent stagnation has been a result of Garlick et al keeping the club fatter for market in preference to investing on the p...

summitclaret

For £8m, if I remember right.

summitclaret

It matters massively if anything happens to Mee or Tarks and also now Brady. This squad needs Tarks's replacement and a right- sided winger in Jan, whether there are new owners or not.

summitclaret

It is a concern for us. I think we will need to reign in BHA . Especially as Fulham are looking much better.

summitclaret

Great news about Cork in particular. He the one that understands best how Dyche wants to play.

That's easy. Play 3 in cm and 1 striker, like we did with Hendrick as a sort of nr 10.

No - at Leeds under Howe and at home against Charlton under Dyche

Think the ref at Leeds was Browne. He sang along with their anthem before starting the second half. Trips was booked twice within mins for not a lot.

summitclaret

Heaton's and Duff's were absolute jokes. Madley and jon toss.

summitclaret

8 points from 5 games game and 3 clean sheets. That is what the takeover has needed. Think it will happen quick now. It would have happened weeks ago if we had not made such a mess of the transfer window imo .

How can they lose money with their shares if the clubs being sold for circa £200 million? Do we know what they paid for them? Well they will all be getting much less than they could have got, if they done the bleeding obvious pre- season, and signed a right winger and a cb. The worst decision makin...

summitclaret

The takeover bid is boring. Has been for weeks. I am still fuming that we did not sign a right winger and a centre back this Summer. If we had, the takeover would have been sorted by now. Stupid Garlick has messed it up by getting us in the relegation zone.

summitclaret

Guys FFS, if you want to discuss the ins and outs of anything apart from the current take over, go make another thread to discuss it. It is disgusting that a Manchester UTD player has taken precedence on the thread regarding the most important turn of event for our club in my generation. I really d...

It's a nightmare for the Club to deal with. Too much negativity on here.

Anyway the chances of Burnley being dropped to tier 2 anytime soon are minimal.

As I said in March, no chance of going on until I have vaccine. So more chance of someone else winning in the ballot.
