Diplomatically put, it could be read either way. Depends what the reader WANTS to make of it to me, classic politicians answer lots of words no substance.

If Sam had wanted to end the Burnley talk he could have done easily...

Of course, some would say his 'agent' ended it last week.

Obviously not.

Burnley would be right up Sam's street. They have good plans at present converting the CofE to an academy (pretty sure Sam would be able to help there, some way), they have money in the bank and a taste of the good time. If Sam can persuade there supposedly minted new board member to spend some of it as well they could come back quite a force, especially considering next time up all the TV money etc is theirs. Strong personnel reasons as well, I think provided Burnley are willing to indulge him he'll be there in a shot. During the BBC interview Sam made it seem pretty clear he'd be interested provided the project was good.

Dropped to 3/1 second favourite on skybet. Despite being advised against it I did chuck a few quid on him at 12/1 Nicko.

I'll just lay a few quid of it now to cover my bet.

You just won't listen...

I wouldn't lay just yet.

Last I heard from that direction was that Burnley 'would take their time' on an appointment. Enough time for Sam to realise it is the best job for him hopefully.

Why do you want Burnley to do well? :closedeyes:

After the abuse you got off their fans :wacko:

It's a good job. End of.

Thanks to the Coyle man they have loads of dough and still have a good squad.

Fans? Never done popularity contests, so it doesn't bother me.

Big Sam has cancelled that appearance.

I think the Burnley thing is dying...for two reasons I would love to share but can't.

One may become apparent shortly.

The Malky Mackay option should have been sorted out today, but hasn't.

I do hope nothing has gone wrong.

A pending premiership managerial casualty maybe?

The mind is a funny place.

It's not what is going to happen...it's what you make yourself believe is going to happen.

Think you need to watch the papers in the next few days on this one.

Big Sam fancying his chances at either Liverpool or Chelsea, it would seem.

I'd (genuinely) love to see what he could do with a big club and think he'd change some opinions with a set of good players and money to spend.

Couldn't possibly do any worse than Hodgson...

Sounds like someone is going to jump before they are pushed.

Saw a bit of chat about Di Matteo earlier.
