That'll be H*mberside plod congratulating themselves on a successful matchday yesterday, even though after the final whistle outside of the stadium it was a shambles. The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.
Baz doesn't pass on plenty, you can contribute while keeping confidences. Depends how you criticise and what role you hold. As I said, managers regularly say "that was a terrible performance" "we need to be better at x y z" etc.
But freedom to criticise the chairman, the clubs transfer business, poor treatment of fans, the managers team selection and tactics? I take it these are the sort of things Burns is talking about when he says he would now be compromised. If you can't do that when it's warranted then you've no business contributing to an independent podcast. To his credit, he's recognised he can't now give it his best and stepped back.
As I said, it's fine if Burnsy thinks he would be compromised, I'm just surprised as Fletch was quite critical for instance of Rosenior's sacking while he was still employed by the club, and I would hope any football club with a media department would be willing - to a point - to accept criticism from media personnel in the media. As I said, if Burnsy said Acun was a "Silly ****" on a podcast that's very different to "I think that's a shocking decision" for instance. Anyway it's done, we'll see if he does make any appearances.
Interesting that we want another centre-half. There’s a few in League One who are having really good seasons. Joe Low at Wycombe, Tyler Bindon at Reading, Sean Roughan at Lincoln etc.
I dismissed the Tyler Bindon thing a few weeks ago because I thought we didn't need a CB. But if we wanted Gibson then Bindon must be a target surely, as an equivalent left sided centre back. And he'll be going on the cheap.
wondered who else has put three past leeds this season. their first match was a 3-3 with portsmouth. later they won 4-3 at swansea. and drew 3-3 with us. those three games account for 9 of the 19 goals they've let in. against clubs currently 12th, 21st, and 22nd. almost like a bit of complacency sneaking in. nobody has scored twice against burnley yet, though seven 0-0 draws already can't be much fun for their fans..
