  1. As @Harry says- JL may not be revealing the full extent of any additional arrangements and why should he? I don't know quite when it became the norm to disclose every aspect of a deal and who knows what Burnley want to fully disclose publicly? There is also the player himself who could have pushed for the move- loan or otherwise in order to work with Liam again and try to recapture the sort of form that got him his big move. Who knows? but he will likely be now playing for his future wherever that may be.
  2. Exactly so particularly those who witnessed the pre Lansdown era.
  3. I'm so excited about this game that my sphincter has put in a transfer request.
  4. I never understood why we didn't swap telephone numbers
  5. Very good post. I can't recall a loan player ever being more analysed as to what will happen beyond the loan prior to even kicking a ball. We are desperately in need of reinforcements to help the team now and that's what ,on the face of it, we have. As long as I have supported this club, loans have been hit or miss. If Scott doesn't cut it here then we have not wasted several million and if he does then we will be in the pole position to sign him and ,of course, the player will have the final say in where he wants to be .
  6. Perm Shaved a bit off Dave- finally some football analysis I get
  7. Twine of the cross (Iron Maiden) P.s In 2014, a missing woman on a vacation in Iceland was found when it was discovered that she was in the search party looking for herself. And did you know that if you bang your head against a brick wall you lose 150 calories an hour.
  8. Since our formation in 1894 some 130 years ago we have enjoyed enormous success and history with top flight football and Trophy success, amazing facilities and financial stability until those pesky Lansdowns came along and ruined everything. Lets force them out and return to the club we once were.
  9. If someone is taken out at a game then probably best to make a quick exit
  10. He was on the pitch for just the final 10 minutes when City were mainly in defensive mode as WH tried to grab the winner but I guess in current otib mode that's long enough to start a thread on his performance.
  11. On the basis we have a defence worthy of a top six side and we are not leaking goals, I fail to see how replacing Max is up for discussion at this point in time. The route to becoming a top six side is by scoring more goals. It's the play in the final third that needs to be better, IMO.
  12. We're making them look like a National league side having a bad day out.
  13. Yes- a good read. Also a little surprising to see that with a sell out 62500 crowd- it's the record FA Cup attendance for the hammers at this stadium.
  14. In previous decades there were many overly hyped youth players but that has changed massively and the fact that BCFC field more players from the youth system/academy than most teams in Europe is testament to this. As far as Bournemouth go- Alex has played in 6 out of 19 Prem matches due to ongoing injury issues whilst Semenyo is in and out playing 28 matches since he left BCFC scoring 4 goals at a combined cost of £30 million so I'm not sure if if they'll be reaching for their chequebook any time soon.
  15. No- it wasn't sarcastic- he is genuinely sick of 'one's for the future' - at least that's what he says in other posts.
  16. Barclay, Brown and Plummer are between 14-20 years ago!! 'One's for the future' also included Vyner, Bell, Conway, Tanner and Pring in our current team and also Scott & Semenyo. Need I go on? But if signing one of Ireland's leading emerging young talents who is likely to be be knocking on the first team door before very long makes you sick to death then at least it's a consistent narrative.
  17. Nice to see a bit of Latin on his tattoos -"Alice Grave Nil " is on his left forearm which translates as: "Nothing is heavy to those with wings" Let's hope Adam is 'per volar sunata'.
  18. Great to see a young modern coach at last making the most of the players at his disposal.
  19. I think it's safe to suggest that you also hold strong views. However, the point being as made by @Fjmcityis that the idea of consulting "experienced" fans on a new Manager appointment is funny. Just imagine if they got it wrong : A bed sheet protest with "Experienced fans out!"
