I make that 8 whole players who are ok, a couple of youth players, a loanee and an old coach - is that the best burnley fans can expect for their £20 a throw ticket (add £3 extra if you buy your ticket on the day)
we are supposed to be a CHAMPIONSHIP team, with expectations of the PREMIERSHIP - we have sold the ground and training ground and look what we have!? exactly
It's a joke and I for one have no intention of going this year to see the above half-hearted attempt at running a football club - it's pathetic
I would rather invest my money in FLEETWOOD Town footy club - and they have more players than us!!!
I am not turning my back on the Clarets, i just think it is time that people stop taking the fans as mugs! Don't tell me that they need my money more than ever at the moment either - where is all the money going? Certainly not on players or subsidising tickets for fans - Kilby can't even blame ITV Digital now SURELY - no big wage earners - so you tell me!?
Mr. Disgruntled Claret
What do you lot think? Am I over-reacting or is their serious grounds for concern??? I know what i think
