Another worry for us which is linked to the above comment is that we have no obvious assets to sell in this squad unlike the squad that went down under Kompany.We got a tidy sum from sales at the end of that season which I just cannot see happening with the current squad.None of them will be on the radar of PL clubs.Quote:

It's the poor buggers who buy STs in the hope of something better that I feel for.Quote:

If you want to see something better you support a top 6 club, not the likes of Burnley, which has always been the case
Not always been the case for me, the first ten years I was watching Burnley there was no team we couldn't beat on our day, and no team played better football. I've seen us put 7 past Spurs, 6 past Chelsea at Stamford Bridge and 5 past Arsenal at Highbury.Quote:

That's a bit harsh BT and a change of heart.You have previously been very supportive of Pace.The results haven't been good recentlyQuote:

Keep the faith we don't want to lose you.
Without consultation I get crammed post-match into a crowd crush of 6000 people. It's dangerous and it's bad practice. I hope Pace stays in Spain and sells us off ASAP. :mad:Quote:
