Delusion, naivety and a confusing lack of acknowledgement to recent history.

Very hard for a number 10 to be effective without a good number 9. What I’d give to sign a 28 year old Danny Graham.

Buckley having 134 minutes this season and 500 odd minutes last season tells me one thing - neither JDT nor Eustace thought he was good enough. And I agree - in my opinion it looks like he can play, but only if it’s on his terms. If he isn’t allowed to stroll around and attempt to dictate play he’s in trouble. He can’t tackle, can’t beat the press, can’t shoot and doesn’t have an outstanding engine on him.

Has resurfaced, on a podcast hosted by Myles Anderson. Feel free to let him know your thoughts. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DAfwSYWIW4d/?igsh=MTRpd3BxajU4MWkxMA==

And therefore, based on Gestede’s decision to spend 1.5M on Gueye, will be a terrible shout.

We can definitely rewrite the code so that it reads “Burnley” as “The Dingles”!

Haha! I know there’s plenty that want them off here completely and I understand that. But there’s also plenty that think the six fingered friends we do have that post add value. I’m truthfully not sure what benefits the website more, but in the interest of not being an echo chamber, my current thought process is if other fans come here, don’t break the rules and be respectful, they’re welcome to.

Closed the website to new registrations for 72, but have now made it so that I have to manually approve all new ones. Rejected a few Dingles whose username shows they’re clearly here to troll and wind up, but have now accepted a couple who seem like they might be reasonable. If not, please be quick on that report button and I’ll action bans.

Palace falls all saying they’re happy to see him go. Loyal servant but no longer has the legs.

I have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about at this point.

Why? Because they sold the best player the club has ever produced, against his will, because they were under investigation for tax fraud and couldn’t fund the business they decided to buy and none of us asked for. So now they can fund us (allegedly), they should be giving us that money back to fund a promotion push which is ultimately the only way they will ever be able to recoup any of their losses - which, for the record, where entirely due to their own stupidity.

If the Wharton money was used to pay the running costs whilst Venkys couldn’t invest, now they can invest, they can put it back in.

We’ve generated 45M in the last 18 months from transfer fees. We have near 25M ‘space in FFP’. We have a great manager and a squad that have put us in a great position, but now need sizeable support to get them over the line. Venkys and Steve Waggott will NOT invest in genuine difference makers. They never do. History shows that. It happens every single year. Linked with top talent, the fans lap it up, cheap alternative is delivered.

Falling for the same tricks year after year.

Feel like I’m going round in circles every window. It’s not about improving the starting 11 it’s about having a squad big enough that we have options in every position and game changers on the bench.

The contract one especially is bewildering to me. What are they all up to sat in the offices at Brockhall all week?

No place for Harry Leonard in a game like this. He’s got the knack of being in the right place at the right time, but he’s nowhere near physically imposing enough or enough of a threat to start a standard championship game, nevermind this one.

Yikes, that squad is even further stretched. Even less confident now. Pears Brittain Batth Hyam Beck Tronstad Baker ACD Weimann Hedges Dolan That’s a really weak team.

Pears Brittain Hyam Batth Beck Tronstad Baker Weimann Cantwell Hedges Dolan Toth, McFadz, JRC, Buckley, ACD, Leonard, Gueye + 2x academy players. Crickey that squad is stretched quickly. Experience please, Eustace. Assumed Ohashi is injured, we need someone to press their back line as otherwise they'll just retain the ball and the attacks will keep coming back. Plus having Gueye on the bench gives us a wildcard option for the last 20 minutes if needed.

Give them back.

If we had owners willing to properly back our managers Eustace would have an experienced goal scorer waiting for him at Brockhall when the bus arrived!

Hope no rival fans are reading this or you’re all going to end up going viral for suggesting we have any hope of signing Evan Ferguson.

Still showing two for me. One BBE upper, one JW lower.

At any normal football club I wouldn’t be wondering whether there’s a world where they didn’t put the seats on sale because they couldn’t be arsed taking the netting off. But here…

I’d rather take Cantwell (and Tronstad, Batth and Beck, if at all possible) if we’re winning by 60 minutes, personally.
