    Should we sign someone or should we not

    Personally I think this is a tricky call. If we do not sign anyone and results turn downwards then there will be accusations that we did not provide the backing that might have been needed. However, if we do sign someone then that might upset the balance of the dressing room (IMO similar to the Joe Hart signing - clearly something has gone on as their has been a group meeting) and results may also be downward.

    What do others think??

    Leave well alone unless we can get a cracking central midfielder, which looks very unlikely!

    Money in the bank is no use to us, it won't score any goals, make any tackles, get crosses in. The squad can be improved, get some money spent and improve it. No brainer.

    The togetherness seems to have returned - and that is priceless.

    Like BT, I would be looking for a strong ball winner in midfield, but I have no suggestions as to who.

    I think in the Summer we should be looking to bring in some young talent - our squad is ageing and we need to refresh. But I wouldn't make any major changes at this time with us three points clear of relegation with 15 games to go.

    However, who knows? We may be looking at a talented players who has flown under the radar, it has happened before.

    SD still has my full trust.

    I think as I've said before Lancaster they should all get there **** together stop moaning and do the job they are very handsomely paid to do ( even at little old Burnley).
    We either take the bull by the horns and have a proper go at this ( within reason ) or we wither away to the championship at best.
    Really winds me up when players are upset about a higher wage or someone's playing that they don't think should be.
    In the real world and a real job youd be told once shut up and stop it or you out £350 a week not 25k a week. ( it's a different world )

    .

    we've been Lucky of recent - imo....played lower end teams, much as us - and those of greater quality have uncannily had serious off days - allowing us plenty of the ball to slow play into a debilitating game - suits Burnley fine.....but can't rely on that taking us safely to the season end - SIGN !

    It's always hard to integrate any new player into a team and hope for instant results. If I was Rigg I would be looking for a 25 year Joey Barton type player, but so is everyone else.
