Re: Pre-season underway
Wow, that's early
Re: Pre-season underway
I know you mentioned that they were coming back earlier before another break, but it definitely caught me by surprise to see the article on the official site informing us that they were back in. It only seems two minutes ago since the Cardiff game.

Not sure why people are shocked, we asked for Foster to be omitted from the recent SA squad so he could.be with the club for this

Re: Pre-season underway
They are off to Portugal later this week for ten days, then another ten days off before the proper pre-season gets underway.

Re: Pre-season underway
Good to get the lads together again & most likely top up on fitness + bonding. Hopefully will have one or two new faves by the time we start proper.
Not sure what the 10 days inbetween serves though. Presumably a lot of fitness can me lost in that time but presumably some science behind it.

Re: Pre-season underway
VK had said that because of the long break this summer he doesn't want them to go stale.
So a pre season, followed by a holiday, followed by a second pre season.
Re: Pre-season underway
Also to ensure the squad is all at the same / similar fitness levels. A large portion are away with international teams in the coming 2 weeks so if we didn’t do this pre pre season they would be ahead of the lads who weren’t going away fitness wise.Colburn_Claret wrote: ↑Mon Jun 05, 2023 6:17 pmVK had said that because of the long break this summer he doesn't want them to go stale.

Re: Pre-season underway
Noticed on a few articles recently it’s been called the “Burnley Training Centre”
Have they dropped Barnfield from it?

Re: Pre-season underway

Re: Pre-season underway
Last season's loan players are now back with their clubs and are subject to their planning. We wouldn't have them here now anyhow, in case we don't sign them on!Hurstclaret wrote: ↑Mon Jun 05, 2023 6:24 pmWill last seasons loan players be with the squad in Portugal?

Good job we've got a second pre season then. Chance for Maatsen, Tella and THB to get up to speed.

Yep, can’t see that. Although if they were contracted to us until 30th June presumably nothing stopping us. Not sure when loans would end.

That what I thought but both the return to training and the Academy International cup articles have called it Burnley Training Centre

Foster is there because VK has a agreement that he can stay with us now but will be released in Jan/Feb
Ah thanks chaps, had missed the internationals point.
Vinny there though. Guy is a workaholic. So impressed with him.

Re: Pre-season underway
Barnfield transferred their sponsorship from Gawthorpe to the cricket field stand. I think that’s two years ago now. Why on earth they won’t call it Gawthorpe I don’t know.

Wout had a day out at Wembley he had an off day at the final

Re: Pre-season underway
Shock Darren bent and Jamie o’hara two talksport ‘pundits’ commenting on us being back in training without understanding kompanys reasons and the fact that the players are getting another 2 weeks off after this mini camp.
‘It’s too early the seasons only just finished’ our season finished 8th May and really if you think about it our season was sorted on Good Friday

Re: Pre-season underway
Yep, a lot of experts on there spouting their ill-informed views. 'Burnt out by January' was a popular one and another classic was 'if it's a good idea then why don't the big clubs do it'? No need for innovation just follow those with the most money.123EasyasBFC wrote: ↑Mon Jun 05, 2023 8:25 pmThe amount of comments on twitter saying they can’t believe how early we are coming back to pre season, without realising he’s giving them another 10 days off

There was a good session going on when I was out walking the Dog. I stopped in the woods to take a few photo's but VK released the hounds to tell me to stop and move on.

Re: Pre-season underway
I’ve been surprised that anyone has been surprised given we all knew this was happening. I don’t know whether it’s a good idea or not but I do know that VK will know a lot better than me. This is the longest close season I can remember so I don’t see any harm in breaking it up with this trip.Silkyskills1 wrote: ↑Tue Jun 06, 2023 8:27 pmYep, a lot of experts on there spouting their ill-informed views.
