    Kevin Campbell RIP SUPER KEV

    Thoughts are with all Evertonians today, on what has become a real sad day for Football. Haven't heard a single bad word ever about Kev - just a solid, top bloke and a proper football legend. RIP Kev

    New Badge Soft Launch

    Yeah changing something (especially a historic badge) to conform to a 'trend' is anything but being authentic - you're just being a poor imitation then. Should definitely go your own way on this.. As a neutral if I saw the abstract/minimal version of St. Rupert's Tower in media I wouldn't have...

    Yeah and some other classic traits - Very charismatic but has odd outbursts of rage. Ostracised players and created a divided dressing room as soon as we went through a bad patch. Was planning an entire coaching overhaul, only a few following him to BM... (there's more) This is not even 2...

    I can't wait. I think the bloke is a bad narcissist and I don't like to chuck labels around like that willy nilly. Has all the classic traits of one. Absolutely agreed. There's some fat to trim like and deal with any players that want out (apparently the dressing room turned and is very cliquey...

    Was pretty unanimous in Moyes/Cooper. Feel like we need to stop the 'circus' and get in a proper football man to trim the fat (we have a ginormous, unsustainable squad) and craic on. Cooper said no and I'm not even sure if we have enquired about Moyes or if Moyes would fancy stepping down a...

    Have any of you seen his presser/ read any of the quotes from today? Complete narcissist imo, textbook and has been all season. No accountability for anything - nothing is VKs fault, he worked hard and worked 20 hr days 7 days a week! Why did it go to pot? Not Vincent's fault, how could it be...

    My concern is what precedent does that set for managers? Just roll over and let bigger clubs beat you now to get a top job? Bonkers if you ask me.

    So as a massive underdog we even played a higher line than Bayern Munich who are absolute juggernauts of the Bundesliga. Good one Vinnie.

    The Vincent Kompany amnesty thread

    Personally I blame short form content/social media/Pep Guardiola. Winning should be the only thing that matters. Not 'trying to play football the right way' - whatever that means. Also, going off that, after watching your games against us this year, do you think 'we played football the right...

    The Vincent Kompany amnesty thread

    Not sure mate. Personally I think that the board need to bring in someone that's been there and seen it all to learn from them, because they're a bit wet behind the ears. Kompany was entrusted with far too much of the footballing operation; we have properly leaned out multiple departments and...

    As a Burnley fan I'm absolutely gobsmacked. He's been a train wreck this year - you think Dyche is stubborn? You haven't seen nothing. 24 points, 2 home wins all year and the Bayern job. Footy is officially nuts... This sort of [Poor language removed] just didn't happen 20 years ago. If playing football 'the...

    2023/24 Sean Dyche

    Bit sad that isn't it? Just giving an opinion on a football message board, in good faith, about your manager that was our manager for a good 9.5 years. He isn't our 'greatest ever manager' and he certainly isn't one of your worst, but what he did was a good job and for that I will always be...

    Sorry but this is just intellectual dishonesty and it means you can't accept nor acknowledge a view differing to yours. You have only posted the negatives without even trying to offer any of the positives or any nuance. "we had chances to beat them under Lampard early last season", really...

    2023/24 Sean Dyche

    Little bit disrespectful and dishonest calling it 'dog and duck football' isn't it? How old are we? The point is first need to stabilise and get your off the field stuff in order before you can even begin to think about pushing back up as a 'top 8 contender'. Where we will disagree is that I...

    2023/24 James Tarkowski

    I still find it staggering that Tarky never got a fair shot with England, think he'd boss international/tournament football tbh.

    2023/24 Sean Dyche

    No, not quite but we tend to sign managers to long contracts here at Burnley - another club would have to pay him out of said long contract. Aye, we lost Charlie Austin less than a week before the start of our first promotion season with Dyche. Facts are Lampard didn't finish above 6th - losing...

    Twice actually, 7th & 10th. Doing that with the size of our budget at that time was quite remarkable tbh. We are under no illusions as Burnley fans and certainly do not expect to remain in the PL for a prolonged period - it really is nigh on impossible. Most teams that aren't top 10-14 spenders...
