@bodenknights The best clubs have stability, not a work ALK seem familiar with.
Seems right now like the manager and the chairman have lost the fanbase, a dangerous place for a football club. Only got to look down the road to see the potential situation if it continues unchecked.

@bodenknights Whoever it is, it's a summer rebuild. Agree on Carrick, would have been a cracker but ship is sailed. Maybe think outside the box.

[Robin Paul @robstocksbpl]

@bodenknights Agree, torn... but need someone who will instill a bit of grit. Who else fits the bill?

[Robin Paul @robstocksbpl]

@bodenknights They need to be clear that Burnley, not Espagnol is the primary focus and they need to make a big gesture to reconcile and remind us of the good times.
Only one man for that 🤔

[Robin Paul @robstocksbpl]

@bodenknights Sadly I agree.
Something needs to change though, the owners need to reconnect, not through sermons but through actions. Season ticket holders feel punched in the gut over priority tickets, the matchday atmosphere feels forced, too much Las Vegas, not enough Lancashire

@bodenknights Parker's post game tonight, he knows. Look at his face. We've both stood with managers with that same expression, tone... body language and gone home to wait for the call. Does Pace have it in him, that's the only question left.

@bodenknights Alexa, what's a win?

[Robin Paul @robstocksbpl]

Losing to VAR again. Wake me up when we're back in a proper league not a money circus.

@MSFSofficial Can I turn off the static aircraft on xbox yet?

@kazalex2 Congrats Karen, pass on my best to Grezza. Top gaffer, born winner 🏆

[Robin Paul @robstocksbpl]

Antoni Sarcevic bagged The Bantams 96th minute winner today. He also scored the Wembley winner for Fleetwood Town to seal promotion under Graham Alexander in 2014.
History has a way of repeating itself

[Robin Paul @robstocksbpl]

#Burnley have amassed 201 points in 92 games in England's second tier, losing just five times.
They will still likely be relegated from the #premierleague next season.
How do we start to close the financial gulf?

[Robin Paul @robstocksbpl]

What an incredible end to a season. The lead in the #eflchampionship changed hands four times over the last 90 minutes of the season (and one minute of added time).
Promotion in the 96th minute for Grezza at Bradford.
That's entertainment!

[Robin Paul @robstocksbpl]

Scott Parker has to take huge credit for what he's delivered at Burnley, walking in to a firesale, a dressing room packed with talented individuals who believed in themselves not the club. To create such a focused, tight nit group and deliver Premier League football. Great job.

@nee_massey Blackpool Empress Ballroom please 👍

[Robin Paul @robstocksbpl]

When I think of the first side Micky put out in The Football League, Steve McNulty, Junior Brown, Andy Mangan, Nathan Pond…This lot are miles away from that quality

[Robin Paul @robstocksbpl]

First time I’ve seen Fleetwood Town this season. Lots of percentage ball, lacking strength in central midfield. Very average League Two side

[Robin Paul @robstocksbpl]

Good to see you tonight @danjewellmedia
That is the worst @ftfc side I’ve ever seen. Most of Micky’s Conference squad would walk into that 11
