JJ Watts Statement....

an oasis of sanity in a desert of madness.

I like that sinky, especially as we are on Clarets Mad.

I'm with alf and sinkov, there is nothing to be gained by abandoning a plan in the second year when it is obvious that it needs to be given the chance to achieve fruition.
Every game that we play this season is very much a part of the learning curve for all concerned, including the management team.
Keep working towards the goal and, as long as everyone involved keeps pulling in the same direction, there is every chance that the plan will succeed.
The only problem will be the fickle fans, however, remember that the core of Burnley fans is approximately 11 to 12 thousand so that means that half of the current number will be pulling against things whilst the others will be giving it a good chance.

From years of experience following the Clarets home and away I find our lot will always back the team if they feel 100% is being given on the pitch. "Minimum requirement - 100% effort" - who said that?

I'm with VK whatever happens this season.

I see progress on the pitch and I think the real spanner in the works was Foster.If he was playing we would have more points on the board.I would stick with VK as he is clearly a good coach and has bought into the fabric of BFC.It would be foolish to dismiss him.

Goalkeepers aside a good team shouldn't depend on one player, others should be scoring goals.

That was the mantra last season Chris.We seemed to have goalscorers in every position.Unfortunately the people who were most prolific last year were loanees who for whatever reason were not signed by the club or like Benson cannot get on the pitch to score.Fast forward 12 months and one league higher and I personally cannot see where the goals will come from.Funny old game football.
