No problem, I know where to get a $1 bud

next time mate for sure should you come back

My impression was that you were suffering from myroundophobia!

Their names didn't come out of the hat this week.

At least, that's how VK picks the subs, right?

I mean, I'm aware I'm quite positive but I'm not expecting us to get to 20 points !

That's a few more than I was expecting.

There was more chance of you buying me a drink when I was in Vegas!

For about the fifth time this season.

They were being heavily linked with him before or during the January transfer window but it was made clear we wouldn't sell.

Obviously we wouldn't want to sell such a valuable asset

Defensive Centre Midfield.

Wolves and Leicester already shown interest.

Other than that, ask his agent, we are expressing opinions here.

Wolves!

He's played plenty of times in a defensive centre midfield role. He's hardly set the place on fire, has he?

fidelcastro

No it isn't a joke. There will be more than one side interested in him if we don't extend his contract. Playing people in their better positions tends to work for lots of teams, for some reason VK chooses to do otherwise. He isn't going to be of interest to most teams but a few will look at him as ...

With a distinct chance Brownhill signs for a PL Team next season, who will our Pro Licence A fans pick on next?

Is that a joke?

Which PL team in their right mind would take Brownhill?

He wasn't going enough two years ago!

Assignon is definitely dividing opinion.

Lucky to stay on the pitch.

fidelcastro

Did anyone really expect us to win when 2-0 up as I certainly didn’t having watched us this season. The only surprise is we didn’t lose but nearly could have. Better first half but the game lasts for 90 +. You’d hope for some improvement somewhere on the pitch over an entire season. It was hope mor...

I don't get him either, obviously has an amount of ability but tries his best not to show it. Seems more interested in falling over and moaning. I'm genuinely not bothered in the summer when he goes back

Morning Viva!

First time I've agreed with you in ages!

On another day Assignon gets a red. His yellow was ridiculous, for kicking the ball two yards away, then he followed it up with feigning injuries and giving the ref and linesman verbals.

Kompany knew how to mix it as a player too, remember?

He no doubt actively encourages it.

fidelcastro

My biggest gripe from today is the amount of silly yellow cards we picked up. Some of them are completely stupid and unnecessary e.g., for kicking the ball away. Delcroix was the prime example, comes on as sub, conceded a throw in and then ran off with the ball to get a yellow card. Completely stup...

Brilliant, make it quick please.

If that's your idea of entertainment, you're welcome to it.

fidelcastro

I can't get on board with the cheating and playacting that occurs every game from us now either.

Barnes was a saint compared to some of the mard arses who currently wear the shirt.

I'm falling out of love with football fast.

I don't think he's been that bad. Won some duels, worked hard but I can't get how he didn't score that chance in the last minute...

I thought he made us visibly weaker.

fidelcastro

If the Brownhill sub was tactical, it didn't bloody work!

fidelcastro

A good stream for once.

Thanks Buxton!

fidelcastro

I think we must have got the sympathy card after seeing that handball decision.

fidelcastro

I think they'll still go down, but unlike us, they'll go down fighting.

We're going down with a whimper.

I’ve just checked and after the 3rd week in Feb Sheff Utd would have the same points ,we would have 2 more,and Luton would have 1 more.

Aye, but we've been soooooo unlucky!!!

fidelcastro

Could it be that the early bird scheme is being scrapped?

In other words, you pay the same whenever you buy a ST?

It honestly wouldn't surprise me.

Fact

I can tell you haven't attended a game for decades, because if you had, you wouldn't spout this garbage.

Dyche chose to spend more on wages, VK has chosen to spend more on fees. Money is money. £100m on fees when your wage bill is 40m is different to £100m on fees with a £90m wage bill. VK also sold £70m worth of players last season and spend half of that. I forgot you were privy to how much players e...

Forest have spent between 3-400 million putting their team together, they are TWO places above us. 100 million, like it or not, is absolutely **** all in the 23/24 Premier League. I genuinely struggle with how people can't see the bigger issue here in terms of the pyramid, if the next 3 promoted te...

Then you should know better than to ‘expect’ Burnley to be competitive in the PL. We have relatively small spend (yes even including the £100m we’ve spent across 10 players this season), we have youth facilities behind some championship sides and generate funds far below that of a lot of Championsh...

Of course we’re going backwards, we’re getting relegated back to where we were when VK walked through the door (but with a bigger better squad), not quite the overall failure you made it up to be. The problem is VK came in when we had no hope with no team, brought in 20 players and stormed the titl...

You said VK should change jobs. Either he walks away with something or he stays. What you are proposing doesn't make sense.

You seem to be saying we can't afford to sack him.

Is that because of the money we've squandered this season or as well as?

fidelcastro

Failing :lol: Funny to see you with your thong in a twist, after all those years of you trying to silence my opinion on Dycheball. VK is not failing btw, he took us up year 1 and down year 2, he’s built a pretty good talented squad from scratch in that time and no doubt made the club a fortune alon...

No. Penny had started the previous season in the defeat at Sheffield Wednesday.
