Did you read my piece in the last 4000 Holes fanzine? 😆

Average operating loss for the five years pre Venkys £860,000 Average operating loss under the Venkys £16.12 million Oh, and to put that £212 million ‘benefit’ into context… In the past 7 years Brighton have received £828.7 million more broadcasting income than we have.

They'll probably do their homework on Gudjohnsen, that's why we need Ohashi, and others chipping in.

Official wording is foul if a player- carelessly, recklessly or using excessive force trips a player not seeing it fits. Plus I’m sorry but the 2 Japanese lads go down hella easy at times

Nah it's a little low at times because he plays forward, progressive passes that can carve chances, not constant safety first sideways passes like most midfielders.

So Preston in a similar loss making situation... Just the Hemmings family covering it like Venkys did (pre overdraft) for us. I did a bit of research just now and while on a smaller scale Preston are very similar to us in model with owners supplying cash to make them viable. Basically in the Championship it seems pretty universally you need an owner to put £10M+ a year to keep the club solvent (unless you have player sales or parachute payments), theres not a single club in the Championship in recent years (maybe except Brentford 10 years back) who have managed to get by over a 5 year period without massive cash support. Really want to get rid of Venkys but how do we find owners who will write off tens of millions? Is there any club we could look to as an example on how to cut the dependency on (potentially crazy) owners? It looks pretty bleak. Personally Id take relegation to have a go without Venkys, but its very troubling to see losing £10M per season is the norm in the Championship, and i wonder how we can get stability in that environment.

Fans haven't been as harsh on anybody sine though.

I remember they got in a little huff when I pointed that out to them last year. It was pretty funny.

Intent doesn’t come into it. If a player is tripped it’s a foul

His passing accuracy needs to improve

The last thing those morons need is more convolution

If we all went and all asked the same question…

That goal at Derby sums up everything about him. The current team need to watch this video. We used to score from corners back then. Hard and fast delivery into the danger area and attack the ball.

My chest size - 60 years ago !

I was hoping our long time Burnley contributors would come on at some point and give us the lowdown on this seasons going on at Turf Moor. They were on here more than I was last season, almost on a daily basis. What can possibly have gone wrong ?

My first impression on seeing the highlights was it wasn’t worth a red card. He was too far out from goal and the cover was coming across. Having said that there will an incident exactly like that somewhere this weekend and it will be a red card.

I'm on it.

Slot's tactics are slower than Klopp. He doesn't want to press high from minute 1. They are playing less long balls than last season and want to the ball more at the back. Missing Trent at right back cos Frimpony hasn't been fit enough. Maybe he needs to play Isak and Etketie together up front. Writz just off them.

64. Kevin Moran

Almost certainly a B*rnley fan

Questions from the public 😂 I think it will be Rudy interviewing him about his playing days, the project and how important it is to look for value in transfers… Possibly round off by pulling out a list of his favourite cheeses before singing ”can’t touch this” when GM removes his disguise and asks if he is worried about being unpopular having taken us into the bottom 3…

If he pays £35 they won’t care VI will refuse to answer questions he doesn’t have the pre written venkys script for

Haha this made me chuckle 🤭

From an account called 'Peter of Preston'. Go figure. Almost certainly a WUM account and a supporter of the most boring club in England. A club more famous for a spud van sponsorship than actual football. As much as there are Venky sympathisers in our fanbase, I'm yet to see or hear any of them suggest they should have a statue outside Ewood. That's too far, even for them. The rest of that quote is along the lines of what the lost and the bots come out with quite often, though.
