I do appreciate that I am being naive and I do appreciate that every player wants to play at the highest level possible. However, lets have it right collectively the players from last season were simply not good enough to stay in the Premier so what makes them all think they are now good enough to jump ship and seek new pastures in the Premiership with a believe that they are now good enough to play in that level of football. What it does demonstrate to me is the players loyalty to Burnley FC the club that gave them their chance in the first place only for them to kick the club in the stomach at the first time adversity rears itds head. This message if aimed at everyone of those players who have now left and to those seeking new pastures. For those that stay and try to get us back I thank you and to those new players coming to our club.

Dont get me wrong I will be there this season cheering on our new manager and team which feels exciting but at the same time there will be very few who were there in our relegation result and that also has a very strange feel for me. We will have little to compare current players with previous incumbants. We will be cheering for a team we simply do not know!!

I do accept that there will be those who do not agree with anything I am saying so that is your perogative. Anybody any thoughts?
