Not going on for the remaining games? Why ever not? There’s an interest remaining… who out of Luton and Forest are coming with us and Sheff Utd? “I support Burnley me, but only when we win or when we play well or if we’re in the PL” :roll: :? :oops: People acting all mardy like we were relegated to...

There’s no way on earth any premier league team would commit itself to guaranteed playing time contractually. What is a bit odd is the timing that Trafford was dropped - he hadn’t made any obvious errors the week before from what I recall - and Trafford not making the bench. One theory here is that ...

NewClaret

To be honest, I think ‘the project’ is something referenced more by fans than the club. Never hear anyone senior at the club mention it and if they have, certainly not repeatedly.

Imagine the meltdown on here if we conceded like that on here ... Fernandes equalises

United very nearly gave it away to Liverpool in this attack that led to the corner and then hitting the post.

All teams that pass it out make errors. No idea why we think we won’t

NewClaret

Told you all teams do it

NewClaret

It's not overplaying it out from the back OR hoofing it every time. There's a middle ground. I've no idea how you can't see our defensive frailties. No way is it just down to the final third. I didn’t say I can’t see our defensive frailties, although I don’t think they’re necessarily something that...

You could see exactly what Muric wad trying to do from the angle behind the goal. He waited for the incisive pass to come available, which it did as odobert moved off his man and opened things up. Unnecessary at that time in the game, should have just launched it down the pitch. I'd have more sympa...

NewClaret

Playing out is fine as long as the players have the skill to do it We’re not quite there yet I think this is about the most sensible and reasonable post on this thread. I can’t remember any other mistakes like yesterday. The only passing it out error that immediately springs to mind is the Trafford...

We saw the same last season, and from Muric. Cockups like yesterday happen, you just pray they aren't critical, and in a must win game.
He'll probably do it again at some point, but I'd still prefer Muric in goal. He offers far more positives than negatives.

Agree on all your points.

NewClaret

Interesting signing- player with decent pedigree who appears to have been a regular in a fairly successful Sparta Rotterdam side last season even if he's struggled for game time this season in a highly successful PSV side. Don't think we can hold that against him and good luck to him. I find the co...

Pen looked as soft as some that the first team have had given to me.

Masara on as a sub and impressed me again. Great composure and finish.

Deal was done a while ago I think, article was written in Feb. I think he’s signed a pre-contract.

Wow!

Any other articles written Tony?

1-1 at Anfield. Blades have deserved nothing but L’pool have been very sloppy this half. Robertson coming on might help, Gomez lack of a left foot at LB hasn’t helped them.

NewClaret

We will really struggle if we don’t keep Muric even in the championship. I hope what has become apparent to everyone watching in recent weeks is just how critical Muric is to how we play. So hopefully his return has at least served that purpose. If we sell Muric after working out how vital he is to...

NewClaret

As Vegas said, the reason he doesn’t play more in tight games is because we need the height defending set pieces, which was probably why Jay came on when he did, and he’s not that strong defensively - tracking back, etc Why he doesn’t come on when we’re losing I don’t know because I think we look fa...

Frustrating .......i think the answer is X/reviews per manager/per half. The Refereeing standards are awful.

I really like this idea.

No VAR, managers or captains holding a number of reviews per game, maybe one each half, that can be used to corner anything.

NewClaret

I'd be amazed if nobody came in for Berge. At 15 million he'd be a bargain for any mid-lower bottom half side. Me too. He was fantastic last night again. Losing him would be the saddest part of relegation for me and I’d go as far to say that if Pace is really set on us becoming a premier league sid...

NewClaret

I strongly suspect that the company structure is ring fenced so that they will not have to repay any monies taken out. Remember they are in it for profit, pure and simple, and I very much doubt whether they will give up profits they have already taken in order to do the club a favour. I think the r...

NewClaret

Not really, accepting that the money will never come into the club, it is difficult to understand why it was brough into the county rather than just left invisible Jersey, it would be as easy to buy more clubs from there as from Velocity Capital (UK) Holdings Ltd - that said it does appear that som...

NewClaret

It remains extremely unlikely that any of those monies will reach the club - the dividend option statement was re-iterated about the now £124.1m loan to Calder Vale Holdings - an entity which now holds £0.01 of declared assets I’ve not said it will. I’d like to know a) what it’s there for, and b) h...

ALK took £50 million of the clubs money out of the bank account and gave it to the former owners. At what point does £50 million change from being an existential threat to the clubs existence caused by Covid to being thank you and oh by the way thanks for the other £65 million you borrowed from MSD...

The auditors have qualified the directors view that there are sufficient funds on the basis that the view is premised on forecasted player trading, which presumably the auditors do not feel able to challenge one way or another but feel sufficiently concerned to make a point of it.

I always tread carefully when someone starts a sentence with “Basically”, usually means they are pretending to be an expert in a field they have little expertise. I stand to be corrected NewClaret!

Firstly this specific sentence from the accounts: In the event that the group's financial performance varies or is less than that modelled, the directors are satisfied that sufficient funds can be generated or otherwise obtained by the Group, if this was absolutel...

personally think we have left it to late with only a handful of games left, if only Vincent would have changed gk earlier we might have had a chance but unfortunately we will never know... This is the worst part of it to me. It was so obvious to EVERYONE yet it took him 28 games to work it out. Abs...

NewClaret

I have to agree. Odobert playing centrally, plus Foster wide and JBL narrow on the left blunted our attacking threat. Taylor saw lots of the ball on the left but doesn't have the trickery to threaten. Imagine what Odobert may have created from those positions. Add to that Fofana having a poor game ...

Basically, “the group” will give them money if necessary. I think the group has more cash than we realise.

Poor decision and we've had a fair few of those against us, but
they're not the reason we are where we are.

Two home wins tells it's own tale.

Equally, I don’t think we’d be in the relegation zone had the countless bad refereeing decisions not occurred.

NewClaret

It’s done. No amount of hoping is going to change that, unfortunately.

We left it way too late to play Muric and have suffered some awful officiating. Cruel on the fans.

NewClaret

Seems Kompany has finally put Amdouni down in the pecking order. Which he deserves until he starts to play better. Great stuff. To be fair he signed Fofana at next opportunity and this is probably the first time he’s had Fofana and Foster fit. Although he could and should have dropped him for other...

My son works and lives in Florida. He says a lot of sports bars he goes to have the Clarets games on TV with US footy fans adopting Burnley as their UK team.

No way is McNeil only on 25k a week.

No that’s an obvious error. The annual salary works out at £5.2m, the same as Tarks, so I assume that’s his actual salary. Can’t imagine he’s gone there for less.

NewClaret

These are the Everton salaries (apparently):

https://www.capology.com/club/everton/salaries/

7 players earning more than £5m a year including Tarks.

NewClaret

Sorry about asking a clueless question but when it says 22/23 accounts this does mean it covers wages for last season, doesn't it? So, for example that will include the signing-on fees and wages for Tarky and Dwight. They would probably have been paying some of Dele Alli's wages when out on loan in...

NewClaret

Good one

NewClaret

I’d imagine Everton’s accounts might be more reliable than Transfermarkt. My question is more what might explain such a big variance. And whether it includes historical purchases as I presume it reflects very badly on them to commit that level of spending when they knew already that they were in br...

NewClaret

I likely to be 4 points, I believe I think the points deductions might end up being the least of their worries.

CP - are Maguire’s player signings and sales figures the total value of players bought/sold during that period, or is it outgoings/income from player trading in that period (i.e. instalments from previous windows would be included)?

Not played in 2024, and as you say close in January. Nothing said since other than he's progressing. I know I'm in the minority here but given his form this season I don't think he's been missed.
