Oh I don't know Lamptey maybe, with Molumby on his way up, not to forget improvements in AC and SA, oh then we have argie mac, and of course no doubt you are discounting Ali J who by all metrics did a better job last season than Murray. The squad has never been stronger. Your point is?

Pretty much NONE of the Burnley squad live around Burnley, though, obviously.

This is why Ashley Barnes and Ashley Westwood run a mini-bus service* (genuinely) from Alderley Edge (?) to take them all into training.

*or at least they did before social distancing rules were invented.

I think it's Hale rather than Alderley Edge, but certainly all the Burnley players are Cheshire set residents.

Ryan and Webster still have their 'fan clubs'. And worry not - March could NEVER improve to the extent that some of his detractors would ever admit they might have been wrong.

Equally March could never improve to the extent that his supporters would ever admit they were wrong.

This doesn't make sense, grammatically at least, even if I kind of get the gist.

Dale. Another high earner off the pay roll. ... And we can’t afford to have a player on 45-50k a week not even in the match day squad.

Click to expand...

Every week this season - if players stay fit - we'll have around half a dozen players on very good wages who won't be in the match day squad because there's no room for them.

The Athletic reporting it as a done deal.

£1m rising to £2.5m. 2 year contract.

Subject to medical.

Stephens not playing tonight. (Although it's a shame as he isn't far away )

Really sad about this. I think we will miss him this year not least as injuries / dips in form and suspensions hit.

I will still have those great memories from Swansea away on our first season up and singing the 'Stephens our midfielder' song on almost continuous loop.

I almost feel sorry for Dale, imagine having to sign for them and working for that cockwomble.
