Alas it doesn't look like we'll need Stephens as we seemed have signed Steven Dafour:

We have Pendle hill nearby. Famous for the Lancashire witch trials in 1612:

Makes the South downs look quite flat as it's 169 feet short of being a mountain! :)
We didn't pay £9 million for Gray. It was £6 million. And that has now been covered by the Danny Ings fee of £6.5 million!
Out of the top three clubs we are the only ones in profit in our transfer dealings as we've spent less than we made in fees.
Shackell sold for £4 million
Trippier sold for...
Lucky in our last game? That was against PNE when we should have been at least 3-0 up at HT. I don't remember Preston creating any noteworthy chances and a 1-0 scoreline really flattered them.
Meanwhile for us, Sean Dyche is just looking to get another 3 points, this time against QPR. It's one of 46 games we'll play this season - nothing more, nothing less. It wouldn't surprise me the only time he'll look at the table is when the season has finished!
Err no, it was taken from the following thread for Boro fans - someone called Exfootylegs wrote it (scroll down). That's their comments, not mine. :

What do you expect? There are three teams, all of which are far better than anyone else, fighting for two places!
Despite all the banter I suspect there will be a grudging hope that ALL three teams go up. It would seem an injustice that the one in 3rd loses out in the play-offs!
You mean Boro's style of getting a goal and then parking the bus for the rest of the game. Even their own fans say this "Karanka is always defensive when 1-0 up away from home and MOST of the time.....it does not work because teams just come right onto us when we bring off forward thinking...
If you watched the game for the other 88 minutes there wasn't any hoofball in that part either! We should have been a few goals up with the chances we created - non of which were aimless long passes! As has been mentioned by various pundits/commentators/journo's we are the best team in the...
I still don't understand why you've got it in for Dyche when all he does his protect his players.
Look at Claudio Ranieri, a breath of fresh air in the PL with his genuine comments this season, yet he's defended Jamie Vardy, saying he gets kicked from pillar to post and deserves more...
Barton is a divisive figure, but just look at how Leicester fans are defending Jamie Vardy despite him being the next Tom Daley. That's how football works!
And as has been mentioned, you can't fault Dyche being totally professional in our last game against Reading. Despite being promoted, you...
