It's Boyd
His contract expires today so it looks like its goodbye George. Thanks for all you did and for lots of good memories. Sheffield Weds seem favourites to sign him. It's looking like they plan to be an ex Burnley team!!

I will add my thanks to George for the contribution he has made at Burnley over the past few seasons. Not always at his best, however, he never hid and always put in one hell of a shift.
Personally, I thought that he was always a big miss when he was out of the team.
No matter where he goes I wish him every success.

Best of luck Boydy and thanks.

Wednesday would be a good fit and I am going to have a quid or two on them for Promotion this season.

A great buy , his industry will take a lot of replacing. From personal experience a truly nice guy. But we move on and evolve .

Sorry to see him go. I think he could still do a job for us.

A great team player and he's been a real asset to us. I'll add my thanks and wish him all the best.

Strange how Boyd always seemed to be one of Sean Dyche's favourites and was always in the team even when he was going through a lean patch, yet money pinching Burnley will not give him a 2 year deal.

If he does depart good luck to him as he always tried his best not to mention eating up the ground more than everyone.

Sad day, he's epitomised Burnley under SD. Maybe a sign that we're trying to change the style of play next season.

Best of luck to him at his next club (unless it's Venkys!).

The Star understands free agent Boyd has agreed a two-year deal with the Owls and will undergo a medical on Monday.

Completely untrue that Alto. Boyd was offered a two year deal but he was offered a different deal that suited his personal circumstances more by the Owls. Dave Jones departed to Hillsborough last year for similar reasons and I will bet any amount of money that Boyd knew exactly what he could expect in Sheffield from both Ross Wallace and Dave Jones.

...read he rejected a 1 year extension....waived another year of PL play for a move to Championship Sheffield....must have been a good offer - or perhaps that he thought staying with us meant spending most of next season on the bench.

anyway......."Many Thanks" to him for the Stalwart part he's played at Burnley.

Sad to see George go , will miss his big smile as well as his whole hearted performances.

Part of the evolution and seriously exciting times for David

year to run on his contract + an extension BT ???

...all academic now so....truth is - he's been cloned by an Alien Body Snatcher from Sheffield....can be the only sensible explanation.

;D
