Brilliant New Burnley Podcast

[superdimitri]

Carrick is the most decorated but not really an enforcer.

[helmclaret]

Unfortunately the closest we had aside Hargreaves was Nicky Butt of that generation who as I recall had one brilliant World Cup then fell into obscurity. Prior to that Ince and Batty but by the time our golden generation got into their prime they were way past it.

It’s amazing to look back though and see each great team’s destroyer
Keane for Man U
Makelele for Chelsea and Madrid
Deschamps for Juve and France
Kante for Chelsea and even Leicester
Gattuso for Italy and Milan
Vieira for Arsenal and Petit before him
Busquets for Barca and Spain.
Rodri for Man City
I’m probably missing loads more.

Butt was a top player, but had to play second fiddle to two of the best ever in Keane and Scholes. I remember that World Cup, but he never really played the same role United and they played so much on the front foot then.

Same issue for England I suppose. If Scholes (probably the best English player of that generation) couldn’t depose Lampard and Gerrard, it’s unlikely they’d find a formation to accommodate Butt.

I think Sven et al even pushed Hargreaves to the left or even as fullback to accommodate him?

[CoolClaret]

England had the personnel to absolutely crush a 4-4-2 diamond, or a wing back system - criminal that we shoe horned someone into left midfield instead.

Neville-Rio-Terry-Cole
-----Hargreaves
--Beckham--Gerrard
-----Lampard
--Rooney--Owen

Could Beckham have been a full back in the modern day game, he's not too dissimilar to Trent but probably better defensively.

I think they could have been a great side for a manager that bothered with the tactical side of the game in terms of patterns of play etc. Always fun to give theoretical teams so il go with this:

Beckham---Rio---Terry---Cole

---------Hargreaves--Carrick
Lennon----Scholes/Gerrard---J Cole

---------------Rooney

New episode out now! ANOTHER defeat but positive signs? It’s a strangely upbeat episode this week…

Out in the usual places or via https://pod.link/1688380656

[aggi]

I enjoyed the Payton episode. Interesting contrast to the Duff one and the difference in the two eras of football not that far apart.

[dandeclaret]

Far too sickly this week lads.... we're bearded camra types, full of begrudgery and cynicsm, not Blue Wkd fuelled, the sun will come out Annie types.

And not one mention of Bobby Ball. One for the naysayers that podcast

[Ightenhill_Claret]

Haha we can't please everyone! (Or anyone!). Normal service resumes when we let Forza out of the Bene-fuelled banishment he's been placed in!

[dandeclaret]

Above post was a joke of course, before it gets taken as too seriously..... I feel all Sean Dyche in a press conference now that I've confirmed that.

You’ve got to be positive at times, Dan. Take Ben Duckett for example. What a glorious innings and now looking set for a 150… perhaps even a double century. Positivity breeds positivity

Hopefully he's in an Ipcress File styled torture room until he learns his lesson.

Anything less is a cop out.

[xxmunkyennuixx]

Listened to three debriefs and I was in agreement with the majority of comments. I wouldn't take an editorial line that some people feel we are negative so we need to balance or vice versa. Just call it as you see it. All debate that is sincere and well intentioned is of value and will find an audience.

[agreenwood]

If we all buy a T-Shirt, can you sort a decent microphone/computer for Chris Boden so it doesn’t sound like he’s nipping into another room halfway through every sentence?

Thank god it’s not just me. Thought my phone was playing up.

[Chester Perry]

you get the impression he keeps leaning backwards wile speaking - he can completely disappear when he is speaking, quite annoying really

It just sounds like a noise gate prematurely kicking in - could be on the mic or audio interface/recording software.

[Ightenhill_Claret]

I think you’re right CoolClaret - I think it’s something on his audio interface that keeps kicking in. He’s on his last warning - any more sound issues and we’re giving him the same punishment as we gave Simon!

[CrosspoolClarets]

Still not on Apple Podcasts this week.

[Darthlaw]

I did appreciate the delicious irony of within 2 minutes talking about ‘how much we’ll spunk on a league 1 GK‘, followed by talking about how Dan Burn is being bullied by his own fans at Newcastle.

Defo agree Boden needs a decent Mic

[wilks_bfc]

Still not on Apple Podcasts this week.

There’s been an issue with apple podcast this week.
Football Ramble also failed to show up on there

It was pretty obvious. We all know you've never drunk a pint of bitter in your life

Coooooooorrect….. but I can identify as one of you lot.

[ClaretPete001]

Can't wait to hear how the Podders are going to keep the positivity going....

Love the show and they've been bang on but all of the sudden they descended into madness this week with someone (who shall remain nameless) even declaring that this is the week Arsenal will implode and Burnley's season will be transformed.

Knowledgeable Clarets they maybe but Nostradamus they ain't....!

This might get a mention in Monday's episode.....

[Vegas Claret]

I'm actually looking forward to the next one, has the potential to be highly amusing because there is no hiding how poor today was.

Don't worry, they are currently fighting over Boden's microphone.

[dandeclaret]

As ever…. Those sickly Alcopops give a raging hangover…..

[Ightenhill_Claret]

A return to normal service this week...

[Murger]

I wonder if there’ll be anger, or as everyone who sits around feels, complete apathy?

[Ightenhill_Claret]

I think there’s a mix of the two. There’s plenty of anger but also a weird sense of apathy towards what’s happening before our eyes.

I should add that we’ve tried to add a little bit of humour to lift the gloom - whether we succeed is not for me to say!

[longsidepies]

Listening to it now. Really enjoying it! Thanks

[Bordeauxclaret]

Good listen.

I don’t always agree with everyone on it but all involved are certainly authentic.

[agreenwood]

I’ll listen to it later today to kill a car journey. I’m moving on from Saturday after that.

Tried to listen to another well know BFC post-game podcast first this morning, but turned it off when one of the panel admitted they hadn’t seen the game. I’m not an expert, but I reckon watching the game you’re on to talk about might be a prerequisite.

[Wokingclaret]

Looking forward to it, I'm sure there will be some colourful metaphors.

[Inchy]

Just had a listen. Great episode and agree with the frustration felt


“Manuel Benson must be power sh*t in training” is my favourite quote of this, or any podcast

[Ptgclaret]

Some pretty decent stuff on it for us lot - had Ben Mee, Tarkowski and McNeil on, all talked about Burnley at some length.

[123EasyasBFC]

Loved the passion in this episode it felt the most like just 5 Burnley fans just talking in a pub

Cheers for sharing that, decent listen.

Some noticeable omissions in the discussion…. Or am I reading too much into no Burnley career pre VK?

[Milltown1882]

Best episode yet. ‘I’ve started to call Brownhill the f*****g ghost because you can never see him’ got me

[dandeclaret]

I’m waiting for the Sir Robert of Ballshire t-shirt (in gold) to be honest….

[Inchy]

I’d love a “manuel benson must be power **** in training” tee shirt

[Fretters]

It's quite cathartic listening to this after such a crap performance, I find.

One slightly annoying thing, Chris Boden's microphone, or maybe he just keeps moving away from it. I noticed it on the last episode, he fades out and then back in randomly and you miss a lot of what he's saying. I thought it was my Bluetooth connection but it only does it when he's speaking.

I’ve decided he keeps nipping into the kitchen to check on his fish fingers. Nobody can tell me different.

A passionate listen this week gents and very enjoyable. Seemed to cover a whole spectrum of the supporters thoughts without pushing any agendas or faux positivity.

Might be an idea to tone down the swearing like.
