Best of luck with that.

Bottom line BT is that we have been conned, new owners were supposed to 'invest' in the team, invest more money than Garlick could, but they haven't, Garlick spent over £40 million on the team in the 2018/19 season windows, this bunch of charlatans have had two windows and spent about £17 million. And the fans are happy ? Spending less than Garlick and they're happy ? Go on then, if you say so. And Garlick also managed to stash £50 million in the Dry Powder store, that's empty now.

But everyone except me is happy ? I was the only one not out singing and dancing in Burnley town centre last night, celebrating the closure of a highly successful transfer window for BFC ?

Feck off.
No your not the only one Sinkov , I’m with you we def needed central mid player/s as I
Posted we’re a injury - suspension away from disaster Brownhill or westy out and the cupboard is bare . Cork will be ok for 10/15 mins in games at most Stephen’s is old and crocked ( we should have kept Benson and given him a go ).

I’ve watched cornet and if he goes like he can do I’m not sure we’ve a forward who’ll get up there quick enough to benefit, after watching Barnes against Leeds If I was Vydra I’d have knocked on Dyche door Monday and said play me or I’m off - whilst Ashley’s been a decent servant to us he’s gone down hill fast , he’s slow. Cumbersome, late with challenges , diving more and simply can’t compete.

Our manager still persisted with him when we have a mobile , intelligent forward on the bench who can head it as well as Barnes ever could ( if that’s the sticking point ) who offers something different, craft and vision and a goal or two ,

Hey we know he may not be prolific but for me in our team players as they are he should start games.

If Mcneil is the answer centrally as many are suggesting with the arrival of Cornet then brilliant if it works , it’s much more physical in there and who will he create for and if he gets a knock then what ?

Ifs and buts I know !
