I'm doing my best to believe that Dyche knows what he is doing, and that this is all part of some sort of ingenious 'long game' (no pun intended) masterplan. However i'm finding it hard to reconcile the fact that I thought he was employed for continuity reasons (and because he was cheap) with...

The 'best value' to be had for a striker may well be in the loan market, subject to obvious disadvantages over potential for recall etc etc.

On the one hand it is difficult to read too much into shots on target stats, because as has been pointed out, it provides no qualitative assessment of each shot. However, on the other hand, even accounting for tame pea-rollers, and assuming the stats are compiled in a consistent manner, it...

Almost impossible to predict the outcome of this. I liked the comment that we may be more of an away team. Certainly pressure will be more on Coventry if we can grab the first goal. Important we don't lose confidence...and therefore think Dychey may well start with same eleven... Would be...

I thought the second goal on the stroke of half time did the damage. you could argue it was quite even up to then. It was a soft goal in that the ball was carried a long way by the WHU player - he should have been fouled. We were always chasing the game second half and it was rather inevitable...

Agree with you Norway in that we will start the season slowly. Not only do we have number of new players, but many of our squad (I'm thinking of the younger players) have little experience of the Championship. We should not panic if results do not go favourably for the first 10 games. I am...

I like it, and still associate white away kit with the Barnes/Cally era. In any case, how many times will we wear actually wear the away kit this season? Twice? Blackpool away, and once for TV cameras to increase sales? On the white front, wasn't this the colour of our HOME kit in the...

Good post Salisbury Kev. Don't really understand others comments that 'white isn't us'?! Whenever I think of our away kits, I always think of the classic 1980s IVECO away kit of WHITE shirts and black shorts and socks. Pretty sure we also had a white away kit in early 1990s. It's our...

I think you make an excellent point about Deeney. Come the start of the season he will have had last season to get used to his surroundings plus a full pre-season of training. I fully anticipate and hope that he will be one of the players to 'kick on' and step up to the plate in the...

Hi, have lurked here for sometime, was part-time poster on 606, thought about time I contributed something. I have a few points to make... 1. Very very disappointed to see Cowie go, I thought he was an excellent player for us, and vastly underrated by many. He was one of the main 'cogs' in...
