If I was a pro footballer and I heard Burnley were in for me my reaction would be, ' They'd better be offering a shedload of cash to go there'. I guess this is evidence of that scenario in action.

I'm quite relaxed now. I'd rather keep him but if it's north of 7m then fair enough. Bit like Leo, pissed off a bit but sensible business and we are now a better team. End of thread?

BG thank you.
This is the simple reason this is the greatest forum ever. Yes there's a lot of drivel posted on here but my goodness in this thread you have just taken comedy and the absurd to another level.
I think you're probably a lovely fella - but the thought of you hunched over your laptop frantically going through sky scanner has honestly made me laugh more than I have for a while.
Keep it coming.
By the way I'm in Dallas - I will keep my eyes peeled just in case Burnley want to keep the deal quiet and send him to the Cowboys or the Rangers for his medical. Out of sight out of mind. Wink wink.
Keep em peeled!!!

It is a tough one:
Hotel in Burnley
Or Hotel in Dubai:
Dubai might just shade this one?

Perhaps he got the hovercraft to the Isle of Wight then a ferry back to the mainland then a flight from Southampton to Manchester. Then he hired a euro fighter jet back down south. It is possible after all.

Guys, working on some sums. How much does Stephens weigh? If the club got hold of enough Red Tailed Hawks...

True about Dubai, but then again if you sleep with your mates WAG in Dubai you get burnt alive, if you do the same in Burnley you simply get herpes.

Could he have done one of those jumps without a parachute that that bloke did the other day?
Everyone has missed out the only possible and most obvious solution:-
Bladders
Twats everywhere
Isn't Al Jazira a news station?
He'd rather be the Middle Eastern Ron BURGUNDY than play for Burnley

Blimey Ernest I very nearly gave a thumbs up to this until I saw it was you. Very funny
Quite close to actually pissing myself laughing at this thread now. Excellent work

You can keep your vulgar pomo Dubai one, and I'll enjoy the modesty of the Burnley barnet.

So Burnley it comes down to this. We don't want nor need to sell him, he's integral to our success so why would we UNLESS you offer us so much money that we can't turn it down. £7m doesn't really cut it.
I've been to Burnley and Dubai and I'd take Burnley any day of the week.
Dubai is my most hated place on earth

Is Stephen out tomorrow as well? If so, is it a case of refusing to play?

Not seen such Bravery!
Perhaps his helicopter back from Burnley will be late ?
