    If Sean gets his way then we will see. But at least he can’t complain. He seemed to be saying he was happy with the squad.
    Another measure will be our ability to keep key players and that means wages.
    Will the new strategy improve our use of young players or will the academy be redundant?

    A lot of good questions to be answered there OC. Garlick does not do transparency very well, does he?

    Come on gentlemen our Sean is a sly old fox , he’s hardly going to come out and say he’s un happy with the squad he has is he ?

    It’s hard enough motivating our players at the minute , the other way to look at it is I think Sean is a decent man with morals and etiquette, so if he starts slipping the Digs in at Garlick the potential purchase syndicate s may think twice about keeping him on.

    So our Sean is playing a clever game IMO.

    Funny how he twice mentioned post match how Villa had spent £200m on their squad. That number resonates rather.

    I hope we sign David Brookes.

    Could that be David Brooks Warminster? He would certainly fit the bill.

    The Mossad has just rang me and told me that ..........Burnley set for £200m takeover by investors ALK Capital by end of year with Sean Dyche set to be given transfer funds. INVESTORS ALK Capital aim to complete their £200 MILLION takeover of Burnley F C, before the end of the year.

    ALK head Alan Pace is expected to take over at the helm if the final details can be thrashed out in the coming weeks.

    The US firm want to plough money in to help Sean Dyche strengthen his squad in the January transfer window.

    Some time after it has been reported that S D was seen outside his house,half naked, dancing on his lawn,in slight snowy conditions,wearing 'Oktoberfest German Bavarian Lederhosen,'and singing ''for they are jolly good fellows,for they are jolly good fellows,and so say all of us .'' Neighbours have reportedly been known to have commented ''He's gone bonkers or perhaps it's the virus?''

    I do not believe you at all Balan. Mossad are much too busy taking out Iranian nuclear scientists to being have time to 'phone you.

    "ALK head Alan Pace is expected to take over at the helm if the final details can be thrashed out in the coming weeks."

    24 word sentence, 3 of them worry me, 'if' and 'coming weeks'. Sounds like it's still some way off yet, if it happens at all.
