I cannot condone or gloss over the drunken minority who broke the minutes silence, it’s indefensible. However, the hypocrisy of their fans is incredible: someone mentioned they were singing about a Blackburn fan who died of cancer and ‘white lives matter’ and this has been verified on Instagram...

Well, the Burnley fans have taken that and ran with it, you should see some of the comments on Instagram. We deserve to be liquidated cos we’re not ‘a proper club’ apparently.

No more funds…this saga just gets better and better.

I think the context is more: ‘how many more would he have if he converted the 1on1 chances’. If he did, he’d easily have 20 goals by now. Apart from Godden, there isn’t a typically natural goal scorer in the team. Vik has a way to go yet, but when he’s the finished article, he’ll easily be a...

Losing fair and square is one thing, but losing to a goal that shouldn’t have stood is another blow to the player’s confidence. If only, if only… We need a striker, a goal scoring midfielder, a centre back and probably two more players for the bench at this rate. Simply has to be done, otherwise...

Ok, the team sheet… …help, I don’t get it.

Who specifically, please? I’m a bit behind with the academy kids etc.

RoBbinGs OuT ToO and NoPm. 🤣 Can see us surprising the heck out of everybody a getting a 1-0 win if the defence is on point. If not, we’ll need an abacus to keep track of Burnley’s goals. One extreme or the other, PUSB. ⚽️

De Guzman and Hoilett, now we’re rolling.

Centre back Burroughs, as opposed to Full back Burroughs.

Forgot about Hargreaves, why didn’t he sign again? Was it a case of Man Utd just hijacking the deal?

If anyone has the time and patience, and the know, obviously, could you please provide a list of the promising youngsters we have across the board? Some are common knowledge like Nee, Rus and CB Burroughs, but who else?

Yes, haha, just realised. Can we pretend he didn’t play for us?

In which case, perhaps they can pretend Wynton Rufer was one of their own. I guess all of the sporting avenues are pretty thin in Canada, except the Hockey one.

Well, not this season, no. Last season, different story altogether. If he’s clashing with the manager, or he’s fallen out of favour, he’d be an extra body to a frail City squad. But again, if his legs have gone, I trust MR will not even blink in his direction.

Speaking of Burnley, if they renew their interest in COH when he’s recovered, we’d do well to try and get Twine as a makeweight in whatever deal is potentially laid out. Hell of a player, what was it, 20 goals and however many assists in 47 games from midfield for MK Dons? Could do with a...

Scott Twine seems to be getting very little playing time at Burnley, could be an effective short term loan ‘stop gap’ if MR was looking for a goal scoring midfielder that can link the midfield and attack.

Yes, Sheff Utd, when he scored the penalty, kicked the hoarding in the throes of celebrating and crocked himself further. 🤣

Montreal too, I think, well it used to be. Was thinking to myself ‘How many Canadian footballers are/have been prominent in the past?’ and aside from Alphonso Davies, I’m a bit stumped. There’s Hutchinson who played for FC Copenhagen, and who else? I keep thinking Wynton Rufer was Canadian...

He had a great season with Swansea, 9 goals and 9 assists in 38 games, but he’s recently fallen out of favour with Swanseas manager (since the infamous 3-3 draw at the CBS in fact), so perhaps that denotes a falling out (considering he can’t get in the match day squad) rather than his legs have...
