Freesolo Posted 8 October 2014 Share Posted 8 October 2014 All i know is Burnley and QPR must be odds on to take 2 of the 3 relegation spots which leaves half a dozen teams fighting to stay out of that last spot if that isn't a good situation to be in this season i dont know what is 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted 8 October 2014 Share Posted 8 October 2014 Wow, are people still squabbling about what we have/havn't spent?! Stop biting, stop going over old ground, I said it before i'll say it again justifying it so much seems almost like we have something to hide, they accused us, people have defended us (Rightly so) but then gone on and on and on about, let them believe what they want, we know what we have or havn't spent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's about the money. I think Nigel is just peeved that having been glowing about Burnley all last season, even after we outclassed them at their place, all Dyche could do was blame it on the money. Dyche had no class, and continues to have no class. Unfortunately, Nige was pulled down to his level on Saturday. I'd be very surprised if it happens again...

Babylon Posted 9 October 2014 Share Posted 9 October 2014 Hmm. When you say balanced, what exactly do you mean? You lost £29.7m to 2012, and a further £34m to 2013. Even if you broke even last season (we don't know that yet), then you still have a debt of £63.7m ish. I'm sure I've seen figures of £79m somewhere, but can't be sure. Did you mean that you are now running a small profit which is eating into that huge debt? We aren't in debt, we don't owe the owners a penny. Secondly, we didn't lose £34m in 2013. A large chunk of that included things like interest payments on the owners loan. The loan was converted to equity and thus the payment was never made. The squad value was changed on the books, which shows as a loss but isn't actually money going out the door. Much of is was nothing more than paper shuffling. The players mentioned above cost about £4m between them. Hardly breaking the bank, and were balanced out by selling Austin for £4m last year.. Shackell £1.1m, Ings £1m, Wallace £2m, Stanislas £1.5 from what I can find... I could go through the whole team. Dyche moaning about what we've spent after we beat you, would have been like Pearson turning round after the game and moaning about you spending £3m on fletcher. Even though he was no longer there. Whether you or he likes it or not. The players on the pitch and in the squad for those games didn't cost much more than your own team. Yes previous managers spent money and lots of it. But the players had gone all but for a few, the only things remaining were the financial fall out it it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artursteppe Posted 10 October 2014 Share Posted 10 October 2014 I wonder what happened to Bumley's parachute payments for 2010 -2011, 2011-2012 etc., poor bastards. Presumably not used very wisely! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

z-layrex Posted 10 October 2014 Share Posted 10 October 2014 (edited) I actually have a big soft spot for Burnely for some reason, it's just their manchild manager I dislike. I seem to like any club that plays in claret (except for West Ham). Edited 10 October 2014 by z-layrex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deucalion Posted 10 October 2014 Share Posted 10 October 2014 (edited) Not really fussed by Burnley either way but it is irritating how they have claimed the title of 'poor little underdogs' this season, regardless of any evidence to the contrary. I suspect it is partly to justify failure before it happens and also to weaken Leicester by belittling our achievements. Regarding the latter, they can't. We had a cracking season last season and have put in some great performances already this season. In fact, add to the mix a pinch of jealousy.

MattGamble92 Posted 11 October 2014 Share Posted 11 October 2014 (edited) How can Burnley fans not realise he says what he says to boost his own reputation in the media. His football focus interview he described them as the biggest underdogs in Premier League history. Even if this was true, surely as a Burnley fan you need to question why that's the case? Marvin ****ing sordell? He may not be blessed with many pound notes but the ones that Lee Fat man Hoos prints for him are spent like a ginger monkey on meth Edited 11 October 2014 by MattGamble92 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st albans fox Posted 11 October 2014 Share Posted 11 October 2014 If it is being done as some kind of 'mental game' then it seems it's working, judged by this thread and Nigel's comments. ITS TIME TO IGNORE THEM UNTIL THE RETURN IS THE NEXT FIXTURE! We have more Important things to be worrying about. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark_w Posted 11 October 2014 Share Posted 11 October 2014 Still laugh at the fact they celebrated that draw as if they'd won the Cup Final, then again suppose we did the same against Arsenal And Everton, and MK Dons, that's what you do when you get an unexpected or last minute draw. There are a lot of things we can criticize Burnley for, but celebrating certainly isn't one of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Nalis Posted 11 October 2014 Popular Post Share Posted 11 October 2014 (edited) I cant believe how much people are biting from both sides! Yes Dyche sounds like a broken records but they are pretty inoffensive as a whole. Better to have them in the Premier League than some of the ****** in the Championship knocking on the door last season. Although what Pearson said had an element of truth, it was downright disrespectful and patronising. Imagine the uproar on here had Van Gaal come out with similar comments about us after the 5-3.
