    Another season completely wasted.
    Completely agree Army-he should have been outed after getting us promoted.His CV tells us that he is out of his depth in the PL.However Fat Sam is not cheap and he will want money to spend and we are by all accounts skint and that is why I believe either SP or Mike Jackson will still be in charge come May.

    I'd rather chew my left handed thumb off without anaesthetic.

    I seem to remember comments similar to that when Joey Barton was coming and lo and behold he was brilliant for us - wish we had a young version of him now.

    I had never realised what a brilliant footballer Barton actually was. For a whole lot of reasons I cannot abide Allardyce. No thanks!

    Sometimes Bt you have to just have an open mind
    I’ll
    Paint the picture for you think back long and hard where we were competitive in games and actually attacked and defended with purpose - remember getting on the edge of your seat as we attacked.

    Fat Sam would make that happen - he’d demand it of players - he’d choose the best starting 11 and we’d be competing, not rolling over

    We’re in this up to our necks and regardless of like / hate etc it needs someone who knows how to get out of a situation like this - were 6 points adrift but that small window won’t be available long imo - as Elvis would say it’s now or never - most seem happy for it to be never under Parker s regime - I’d rather have go with fat Sam and be entertained at the very least

    I can see the points you are making for Allardyce. Not sure he would want it though.

    Thry should have sacked Parker 1 month ago when it was obvious that things were going tits up, but has usual they hang out the white flag.

    A cloud of pessimism is now creeping into our fan base and that is not good with relegation looming, either the owners do something or the fans will vote with their feet.

    Local derby tonight and I guarantee that the actual gate won't be much above 17k, that's just 15k Burnley fans. When I was a lad growing up in the Valley through the 60s & 70s you either supported Burnley or United. Most kids hadn't heard or gave 2 phucks about Rovers, and that says it all if our fans don't turnout tonight against our nearest rival

    Five season tickets held at our house have all been smacked on to the ticket exchange.

    20.15 kick-off, grandkids home really late and probably tired in school, whilst freezing our tits off to watch Parker's $hite tactics. Not for me tonight thank you very much, and I have had a load of messages from others saying exactly the same.

    I feel the same BT but have decided to go. My mate has a 2 goal rule, meaning if we go 2 down he phucks off back to the miners to drown his sorrows

    I cannot remember ever being this disillusioned ballcock. Between Pace and Trump I've had my fill of Yanks.

    This season I honestly felt we had everything going for us and we have totally blown it.
