A bit of a dodgy subject for you Grumps seen as you was previously banned from posting on this messageboard

I've never been banned from this or any other message board, so not quite sure why you feel the need to comment as such.

Can someone explain to me how some threads like this are allowed, and others not
For the record I think they should be allowed

In the 2022 I live here survey.

Blackburn was 15th and Burnley 25th crappiest to live in this Country.

So Blackburn is therefore a bigger dump, nah nana nah

That's what I said.....

Who would've thought that calling Burnley a dump on a Burnley forum would upset people?

I was meaning those complaining it had gone off topic.... Our dump is bigger than your dump etc etc

You’re missing my point, which was that within half a mile of the Turf, there are several surprisingly beautiful areas and the same cannot be said for Blackburn. Also, stoneyholme is not within half a mile of the Turf. I’m glad you’re happy living in Blackburn, but I know which one I prefer. If you...

Next time you’re on the Turf, have a wander round. Within half a mile you can reach Queens Park, Thompson Park, Towneley Park and Hall and Rowley. All beautiful. Can you say anything similar about Blackburn? I can also wander round burnley Wood, stoneyholme etc etc Witton Park is far better than th...

Not a very nice description considering a large percentage of this forum will live in Burnley.

And some of us live in Blackburn, having previously lived in Burnley, so certainly in a position to judge
If you think burnley isn't a dump, try opening your eyes next time you have a wander round.

Andy Carroll’s body hasn’t been able to withstand the rigours of PL football for a number of years . I know some people are willing to have him until the end of the season but be prepared for him to be on the treatment table instead of the field He's fully fit, and ready to go. Hopefully any contra...

So you're suggesting signing Carroll and another striker, I can understand that more. I thought you were talking about banking the cash and replacing Wood for Carroll.

Thankyou.

Can this nonsense about signing Andy Carroll stop immediately. We are desperate but not that desperate.

Unfortunately we are that desperate. Top scorer in Africa... Vydra and Barnes injured... No player of note wanting to come to a club at the bottom of the league.... Should I go on..

So who is the main striker replacing Wood? where are the goals coming from?

Perhaps one of the three mentioned today
But they won't be here for Tuesday, or possibly next Sunday, where as Carroll could be, then if we do sign someone else, he's an option from the bench

Our top scorer. He’s back in 3 weeks.

As a lone striker? Come on let's get some reality here. We need a striker other than what we already have. Barnes and vydra are injured, and Jay.. Well he's just poor, I know he was born in Burnley, but he's not currently the answer

I agree but currently we can’t create chances and we can’t keep clean sheets due to our midfield. We have got to improve that this window.

So we get players to create chances..... For who?

CM and RM by far the most important signings this window.

We have Cornet back soon, one of our others can be the battering ram for Cornet.

I would have agreed with you... Until Wood was sold. You can buy as many midfielders you like, but you need someone for them to feed

[*] I think anyone that watches football could suggest 10 strikers of the top of there head. Carroll is not the answer, he’s a stop gap. I would take him if it means we sign a CM and RM.

Incase you haven't noticed, we've played considerably less games than the rest, we're well in with a shot of staying up. Andy Carroll is absolutely pony, he's scored like 1 goal PL goal in 3 years.

If Dyche is even thinking about Carroll, then it's time to go. He isn't even an option in my book. We need a centre forward...
