    Burnley Lose Out Again...

    This time it's James McArthur, Leicester nipping in to nab the player, would not have been hard competing against Burnley though.

    Pearson's words "My advice to the football club is if we can't get the people we want, I don't want to pad it out with players who are not the right fit or not good enough".

    This is not now an annoyance for me that we have missed out on another of our target's, I'm upset for the fans who have IMO been led down the river, the players and most of all Sean Dyche who I would not blame now if he walked for the exit door, as he said in an interview the other day "I'm expected to pull rabbits out of a hat".

    I am Well P!$$ed off with the running of BFC, I know what you will be saying and thinking Stan, I'll follow them till I'm in my grave no matter what happens but the way things have gone it's pathetic and inexcusable.

    The season ticket fiasco was enough before we had started, you can put it down to bad luck missing out on 1 or 2 target signings but the way we

    For fear of causing controversy I think you will come straight back down again. I hope not, but the signs are there. A promoted club has got to strengthen with Premier League quality players to hope to compete. Burnley have not!

    The latest is, your after Keogh. I think most Rams would not be too disappointed if you offered, and we accepted, £3m.

    We have players that can fill his role (Zak Whitbread and Ryan Shotton) and rumour is we will be bringing in a quality German centre half too.

    what a bold statement Rammy

    I admire your boldness and think you could be right but you have not been following the prem have you?



    Bottom will be Pal****

    followed by Dull

    followed by Man U (I hope) but more likely to be Stoke

    Table toppers will be Chelsea

    followed by Citeh

    followed by L'poo

    followed by ****

    followed by Spurs

    followed by Everton

    But when you look at the prem it doesn't seem as strong as it used to be

    Burnley

    He's (McArthur) still not gone to Leicester yet for £7 million pounds. I'll repeat that ...£7 million pounds.

    The only annoying thing for me is that we still don't have what we (at least) have needed since May, and that is a centre half and centre midfielder.

    It's got nowt to do with 'missing out' for me. Bryson had no intention of leaving and him and his agent played a blinder against Derby. Dawson isn't for sale what with West Brom's injury problems (yes we would get him if we bid £10 million). Lansbury was injured and Pearce wanted to keep him but the owners messed him about for a bit. Yes we would have got Lansbury if we had bid £10 million.

    Yes we could get McArthur if we bid £10 million.

    I'm glad that we haven't got any of them, even if we could do with all of them.
