Bruce, forgive me but I need to ask. Did you think the white thing was a large futuristic leaning spot with the brown being the floor? I wish it was but Its a lamp, a small lamp, on a table

Get Hummel on board, these are glorious

Ooooh 5 pages of activity must have been a busy afternoon.....

Joe Hart signing for Spurs. Not as a player mind you, more of a English box ticking exercise to fill a quota

Nixon saying Ipswich want Rhodes if he’s allowed to leave Course Nicko that would work well with the wage cap

Well that’s a revelation, cheers Nicko didn’t know about that link

I did worry about Totally Wicked but I doubt they’d be allowed as a main sponsor, at least I hope not

We’d be crazy if we haven’t already had the Issa brothers on the phone thinking about it Chump change for euro garages

Surely they can’t just back out we would have had them tied in financially? Hope it’s not another betting firm, we should reach out to Eurogarages, the logo may look crap but local, minted and ever expanding.

I used to rock the Brazil and Argentina classic shirts from Stolen from Ivor back in the 90’s

Who is this ‘Laissez Fair’ we are linked to? he’s been mentioned a couple of times in the last twelve hours! Hoping tomorrow brings a few lackadaisical drops!

Hope we get a permanent keeper in before going for Philip Seymour Hoffman otherwise Benny Ben Benson may finally get a game at some point! Shooting drills in pre season will be easy at least

Didn’t this clown pants say a week back that we had agreed a fee for the Charlton keeper?

Whilst I will say I wanted them relegated due to the way some of their fans acted it’s now looking bleak for Wigan Down to 12 players currently, they need an owner in quickly

That blue is stunning I hope we get that shade, the red is horrible though which almost invalidates your first opinion!

Cunningham was decent enough but not seeing him as an excellent loan signing, more solid than Bell or Williams but only played a handful of games including an absolute shocker away at West Brom where he cost us a couple of goals

Well the ugly bunch down the road agreed to it but from Riberos Twitter Rovers haven’t been as forthcoming so far https://shop.burnleyfc.com/claretsstore/RIB171

Interesting aside, Ribero had appealed for anyone who had a Wembley 92 yellow shirt to get in touch with them. Steven of New York Rovers ( @oaklandrovers on Twitter, used to post here I’m sure years ago) has sent one over to them. They wanted a sample to match the fabric to potentially produce replicas, apparently they have reached out to the club before to produce them but no response I would 100% buy one and predict they would sell better than any shirt in years

So why did he keep playing him? Most of us could tell throughout the season he was no good, his command of the box on crosses is decent and rarely dropped a cross but overall he’s poor

Mickey Mouse Club!

Be nice to see it at least though

To me Brad Smith seems a sensible option, decent enough and won’t break the bank, seems likely

Yes we finally got about an hour with him towards the end of the trip. The good guys in the club told us not to hold back (Ironically that became Paul Hunts undoing) . I along with others told him directly that he had a chance to turn it around but the fans were fully against the manager who was taking us down. I try not to comment on the owners too much as I never want to come across as an apologist but I am one of those that believe they are to blame but were mere puppets for people with sinister intentions. You only have to look at Balaji’s other enterprises, Bala Star I think was his Bollywood company, he threw flash parties with big celebrities etc, he’s as flash as they come and I think was seen as an easy target. When we went to Pune there was obvious shoots for Rovers to be big and they wanted it to be a success, adverts everywhere about ‘India’s premier league team’ the academy they set up and even a weekly tv show about us. Sadly when we were there a certain cigar smoking agent was as well, always there controlling things, making sure nobody got close enough to Steve Kean. Watching a youth tournament there I did an interview with DNA which is the local paper, I said how Steve Kean had to go and listed some replacements, Martin O’Neil was the popular choice at the time. The reporter walked away and we spotted our old friend and publicist intercept him, take his pad and cross out lots of what was said, the interview never reached the paper however one that Glenn did was there with quotes that weren’t said.
