    I seem to recall Vespa Boy singing his praises a couple of weeks back.

    Lads are training right now. Sounds lighthearted. Nothing too full on just tippy tappy stuff to keep them fresh I reckon.

    Do you live on Mill house mate?

    I hope if a ball comes in your garden you tell them to get Steve Bruce to come round and get it <laugh>

    No mate I live on Mill Beck Lane at the back of the training pitches. We had a couple of balls come over into the garden when Aaron McLean was here <laugh>.
    The dog was also on Sky once barking it's ****ing head off while someone was being interviewed.

    So it was you he started the notion that Aaron Mclean "could not hit a barn door with a banjo". Could have kept it to yourself, obviously did his confidence a lot of harm. Suggest to try to cultivate a more sensitive and empathetic nature in future.

    If they are still at it; go over and suggest that they play Pepe Guardiolas wonder drill-Rondo. Tell Steve that if he does not know what it is there is a nice video on the Guardian soccer page. Its sorts of a game of pass where they pass the ball to each other and others try to stop them and get the ball. Imagine that!

    He's doing about as well as Bruce this season, with well under half the budget.

    Absolutely.
    Brought everyone back for corners.
    Played Georgie B on the right.
    Didnt switch formation when two down.

    No plan B. Tactically naive. Clueless completely clueless.

    Dyche out.

    And? I just pointed out that you were singing his praises. And if he's doing 'about as well' when many want Bruce out then it isn't very good.

    And surely if we were to praise anyone in this division Hughton should be the prime candidate.

    Dyche squads over-perform, Bruce ones underperform, be interesting to see how Dyche gets on if he's given a quality squad to work with.

    Hughton wouldn't leave Brighton for us.

    Do you think Dyche would leave Burnley for us?

    As for the budget issue, earlier this season didn't Burnley sign a player that we couldn't afford?

    Possibly, he won't be on a fortune and we'd be offering him far better tools to work with.

    It appears that we did train on Christmas Day, but Bruce sympathetically gave the players yesterday off instead.
