to be fair, there are some good replies on this thread from the question i posed to you all.
As for wanting to be in the premiership, every club wants it, and even though, i want to see Burnley in the premiersip, i know it will not happen whilst Kilby is chairman(not a lur on him at all) i just think that he does not share the same ambition with the fans as Wlaker did at your place.
As for the "carrotsmad" jibe. i am a regular on there and yes, you do get some idiots, but dont tar us all with the same brush, please.
I am a Burnley fan, first and foremost, but as most of you have gathered on here, i can talk football too.
maybe a bit biased, but i do talk football
Marv,
I mean this in the nicest way possible...
Since winning the Premiership we've been very much up & down the league position wise, however, we've had (Albeit brief) a few trips into Europe, we've won a cup @ The Millenium Stadium and been relegated & promoted, all (Bar the relegation) very gratefully received, however, the hard core of fans (Season Ticket holders & regulars) have stuck with it despite Mr Sourness etc.
Personally, and I think if you were in any way unblinkered, would not suggest that your supporters are less flakey than ours would you, I think they are, look at the decline in your gates? And you've been doing not so bad under cotterill?
Our supporters (Spoon fed or not) aren't that pre occupied with the past, you know your's are!
Last point, look at the difference in the respective boards, our have the club's at heart and remain realistic & innovative (Although not perfect), your's on the other hand
i agree. we look at the past(although i am not old enough to remeber us winning anything bar the playoff final and div 4 ) because we have nothing to look at in the present.
yess we are playing quite well at the moment, but , to be fair, i cannot see us gettin promoted. If cotterill takes us as far as Ternent did, then we will be closer to the prem, but until that happens, then i wont hold my breath :ph34r:
