So the latest status at this comedy club as I see it as follows:

1. No board directors
2. Deluded Chairman in survival mode
3. Owner in hiding and under investigation from government officials
4. No investment as suggested by many sources including former idiots running the club
5. No new players
6. Weaker squad than in May for what was already the worst squad we have ever had imo
7. No money
8. Better players linked with exits
9. FFP investigation hanging over us with possible major ramifications
10. Clubs ready to sue the club if found guilty by FFP
11. Carlo suing the club
12. Fans in pitchfork mode before the season has started
13. No news on the new kit
14. New ground that might not get completed without further investment


Have I missed anything, trying to look for positives but struggling tbh.

Happy Friday everyone.

The positives are that Luton , Sheffield United and Burnley came up.
I suspect that Burnley will finish above us , I just hope that Bournemouth implode this season and we finish 4th from bottom. Then it will be job done Sean , you've got us to BMD in the Prem now cheerio.

you missed a big one:
0. Maupay, Gomes, Gbamin, Holgate (Godfrey) still at the club. And Gray with his half hearted attitude.



14. i think we can almost tick off
15. Colemand to sign a new contract

I think that's harsh on Gray personally. I dont think hes a wonderful footballer, i think he has somewhat decent technical ability for the level but has absolutely minimal football intelligence. I dont think his attitude has been poor this year, he has done a role under Dyche because needs must, and he's worked hard and done his best.

Each to their own, but I just dont see that as fair with Gray. Plenty of others perhaps.. but a tad harsh on Gray i think.

Had a rep of what?

He just didn't get much game time. I've never heard anything about a bad attitude and haven't seen anything but a dedicated professional since he joined.

I heard he used to tie players shoe laces together and steal their pants and plant them in the away teams dressing room to aggravate everyone

what i mean mate is he should take Mc Neil as an example. Gray gives up on running back with his full back after say 3-5 times. Is too easily pushed off the ball in duels. And remember when we played United away and he was asked to do the Doucoure job. Because Gray / Maupay didnt press so United had a field day putting balls over our sleeping defence all the time.

I did not say a bad attitude, but it is half hearted so wont fit Dyche's ideas. Then he better go so we get someone like Harrison.

I do agree with im not sure he is a Dyche fit, at all. And fair you said Half-hearted but I dont think its attitude, I think its more ability and his actual intelligence of football. I think it's one where it's not so much a lack of effort but he just doesn't take in how important certain attributes are in that role.

As I say, he's done roles he's never done this season under Dyche, and he's put effort in, so he gets a free pass from me becuase he's definately not a dyche system player but has put effort in.

I dont think hes good enough as a starter, perhaps something off the bench.
