Michael Duff's Burnley XI
A new video on Clarets Player.
Really good watch, I won't spoil it by telling his choice, but just a good reminder of what great players we've been blessed with over the last 12 years. You could probably fill the bench with another 2 teams of players who could have joined it.

Re: Michael Duff's Burnley XI
He also comes across really well (as ever)...............a future Claret Manager potentially..........and his XI is interesting and a good reflection of his time with us.
Re: Michael Duff's Burnley XI
Thirded... an excellent watch. He's still my eldest's favorite Burnley player!
Re: Michael Duff's Burnley XI
A great watch and the respect he holds for Dyche is incredible. Duff has to be one of our best ever buys - utmost respect to him and yes he could be a future manager for us.

Re: Michael Duff's Burnley XI
Too true-I think we raided the office petty cash when we bought him. Well done Cotts

Re: Michael Duff's Burnley XI
Wasn’t he the first player we spent money on in god knows how long? I remember being surprised at the time that we paid a fee for a player.

Re: Michael Duff's Burnley XI
Articulate, intelligent analysis of some of the best players to play for our great club throughout the past decade and a half.
Hope he does well next season and definitely a candidate as a future Burnley manager.

Re: Michael Duff's Burnley XI
Without watching it I’d guess
Heaton
Trippier. Duff. Mcgreal Ward.
Elliott. Grezza. Barton. Airfield.
Ings. Austin.

Top top lad.speaks well and can well see him one day managing at the top level.
Re: Michael Duff's Burnley XI
His choice is different. An insight into both the player and the character.
What was he doing up Burnley way?

Re: Michael Duff's Burnley XI
A brilliant watch that and a very competitive side. Lovely how he still referred to Sean as 'The Gaffer'

Re: Michael Duff's Burnley XI
It takes a lot more than skill to become a legend, but Duff is certainly a Claret legend, and a Cheltenham one too.
It would be good to see him and Elliott back one day. He has a big future ahead, but a hard one next season. I think I read Cheltenham had the 17th smallest budget in league 2. League 1 is a big ask.

Re: Michael Duff's Burnley XI
Enjoyed that, surprised there were no mentions of Joey, David Jones and Barnesy.
Big plus mark on his cv taking Cheltenham up, that's an outstanding achievement.

Re: Michael Duff's Burnley XI
Easy to see duffer back here as manager one day
Re: Michael Duff's Burnley XI
Surely Gary Cahill would be in it.

Like Frank Casper, who of course became our manager.gandhisflipflop wrote: ↑Sun May 02, 2021 9:34 amWasn’t he the first player we spent money on in god knows how long? I remember being surprised at the time that we paid a fee for a player.

Re: Michael Duff's Burnley XI
He was Cotterill's second signing but McGreal, the first, had come as an out of contract player. Given we hadn't paid a fee for a player in the previous two seasons I reckon the previous fee we'd paid might have been for Robbie Blake in Jan 2002, some two years and six months previous.gandhisflipflop wrote: ↑Sun May 02, 2021 9:34 amWasn’t he the first player we spent money on in god knows how long?

Re: Michael Duff's Burnley XI
And what a signing Mcgreal was too. Top defender at that level.ClaretTony wrote: ↑Mon May 03, 2021 11:10 amHe was Cotterill's second signing but McGreal, the first, had come as an out of contract player.

Re: Michael Duff's Burnley XI
Michael Duff was some signing for 30k, nearly 350 games for the club, and 3 promotions, that's some CV in anyone's language, and he's clearly carried on that success into his fledgling managerial career, always pleasing to see anyone with Claret connections achieving success, and it's been well earned success also. Stanley are a notable example of how to compete in League 1 on a miniscule budget, so although it'll be a tough ask for Cheltenham and Duff I certainly wouldn't write them off.Colburn_Claret wrote: ↑Sun May 02, 2021 1:21 pmIt takes a lot more than skill to become a legend, but Duff is certainly a Claret legend, and a Cheltenham one too.
