Seen half a dozen names mentioned now, enough to see what the 'philosophy' is, as VK has stated, buy 'em young and cheap, develop them, improve them, sell 'em at a profit. Nothing wrong with that, it might keep a club like ours ticking over, but it makes Pace's aim of getting us back into Europe in 4/5 seasons laughable. There are ways you can get a club into Europe, but selling your best players to your wealthier rivals isn't one of them.

BT --it did float, in fact, it floated quite a long way really, however, it came up against an obstruction and, until recent years, sank without trace. Technology, along with the determination of certain individuals, eventually found it and explored the wreckage.
Perhaps that is what ALK are intending doing with their use of technology relating to Burnley FC. We have hit the obstacle, will we sink without trace for many years or will we be kept afloat and, unlike the Titanic, rise from the ocean? Just asking.

The question is:- Do we have enough life boats to survive?
