    I agree to a point and I’m a little worried that our attentions have turned to Moukoudu and Windass.
    The rate is the going rate for players and if we’re not shopping in the 15-20 million bracket - stop shopping there wasting time and find some championship players that potentially could hold there own at our level.
    I fail to see how pretending were interested in players helps our club and the fans tbh .
    If we’re not going to pay stop wasting time.

    I shop at Lidl because I can't afford to go to Harrods. It really is time Burnley stopped farting around and look to buy from where we can afford to shop.

    Mawson and Rodriguez are proven EPL players that we desperately need. We are an EPL team, why don't we just pay the going rate and join the fcuking party?

    The frustrating, and puzzling thing, is that we shelled out more than £50 million on transfer fees in 2017. With another PL season guaranteed, it's obvious that we can easily afford to buy both Mawson and Jay and still have plenty left over. If wages are a problem then we'll have to adjust our pay scales upwards to compete, it should be possible to accommodate them without wrecking the club's finances, which according to the last set of accounts are in a very healthy state indeed.

    In the meantime the tumbleweed continues to blow down Harry Potts Way, and like the OP says you have to ask 'What the hell is going on ?'

    Think is Sinkov like you say 50 mil then but the money coming in from sales counter-acted that,
    and the money to us has increased so I can’t understand what our end game is.

    About time you grew up. Every one has an opinion. Just because it does not meet with your views you make stupid remarks. I do hate stupid people

    It takes one to recognise one ---so just keep on with the drama.
    Nowhere did I disagree with your view, I just expressed my opinion about your opinion and you took exception to the fact that my view was different to your view and so this makes me a stupid person.

    I am happy for you to think that I am a stupid person if it makes you happy, however, it will not change my opinion which is why I expressed it and nor will it stop my expressing my opinion in the future.

    Stay happy and cheerful and don't get too upset about the Board, they either will or they won't and there is beggar all that you or I can do about it.

    On a scale of stupidty from 1-10, where would you rate someone who said we had no keepers, when we still had two ?

    My comments about being stupid did not include you sinkov. I agree with you we still have 2 keepers so we should be alright. However what does concern me is we seem to be shopping in the charity shops and are even unable to break into B&Q.

    You obviously didn't understand my point which for the uninitiated refers to name calling rather than dealing with a opinion. I accept there many alternative opinions none of which I argue with but lets be honest then we are both stupid, I have no problem with that. In any event this does not stop anyone expressing a view that our transfer position leave a lot to be desired at the moment. And although we have no say or influence it still does not stop us from expressing our concerns or views.
