On that basis I reckon we've been conned. Seems to me we are going to be a guinea pig for ALK's version of the Garlick plan, which was to stay in the PL on Dyche's back while not spending any money.
    It's fecking gloomy this morning sinkov, of that there is no doubt.

    Having to dig the car out of a bleeding snow drift did not lighten my mood either.

    We were due to go the supermarket this morning BT, but one look out of the window and it was 'feck that for a game of soldiers', it can wait until tomorrow.

    One thing has been cleared up though, we now know where the parachute money will be going when we're relegated.

    You would have to think they’re going to have a go at backing the manager before they asset strip us completely, it’s got to be more lucrative staying in this league.

    We may be selling them short and they were sat waiting to write cheques and Dyche never went and asked - if they liked him before he’ll never leave now.

    Maybe army, but Pace did say they were in for players. I always think, if you're in doubt about anyone, never mind what they say, watch what they do. I watched what our new owners did in January, precisely nothing, and I've drawn my own conclusions. I could be wrong, but my method has stood me in good stead over many years, it hasn't failed me very often.

    We have been stitched up by Garlick & Co like a pair of Isle of Man kippers.
