    I bet on it as well army, I bet on us to go down every season and it's cost me so far, but this season it's payback time. I'm on at 5/2 so some of the losses will be re-couped. What worries me is my mate Alfie, he usually bets on us to be relegated as well, but he's been quiet about it this season. I suspect he's not on this time and is going to miss out out. Come on Alfie, are you on this season, are you going to collect with me and army, or did you forget to put the bet on ?

    I was trawling through SKY news yesterday and SKY Sports showed the EPL league table.

    A not particularly interested Mrs BT said the gap is widening and it's either us or Watford going down with Norwich and the Toon.

    Can Trippier and a few others keep NUFC up?

    Lack of investment is the problem, we have scraped by for too long, BFC will never spend massive amounts of money but every team except us tries to improve their squad, McNeil has looked disinterested for ages and our style of play if you can call it style is easy to play against, if we by any chance bring in any new faces this month let’s hope they are not injured and SD actually plays them, I still think we could stay up but I won’t hold my breath.

    Indisputably, no problem. Safe as houses Newcastle.They have identified what you need to do when your players aren't good enough to keep you up. Buy some better players.

    Newcastle with their new found wealth will buy there way out of trouble.It is BFC,Norwich and Watford for the drop.We are skint so we are going down.That £50-60m in Garlicks bank account could have kept us up if invested in the squad at the time.

    You all wanted rid of Garlick and he went ---so what's the problem? New owners, lots of money available, same manager and staff and fans still moaning like hell ---yep --that's the Burnley I have known for the last 70 years. Plus ca change!

    "Lots of money available" ?

    Come on Sub, that's not the Burnley we know. Never has been, and still isn't.

    sinkov, according to many of our supernova fans, it is because they keep naming all these players that we should be buying, therefore, we must have 'loads of money!'

    Put a offer in for Ramsey at Juventus hahaha what a load of Bolloks.
    he is on 300k a month, that's more than the squads combined

    Maybe we should put a offer in for Messi or Neymar?
