Pope out the door

Given that several clubs are reported to be interested, I don't see why they have to accept a bid from the first club to make a solid offer.

 

It's Katrien.

 

Celtic have also made an offer but it is obviously lower.

 

Incredible considering he was the scapegoat towards the end of Luzons reign.

 

That was shameful, and credit to Hendo for defending Pope and attacking the morons who jeered him.

 

Yes, one notorious Welsh blogger who had never actually seen Nick play described him a "No Hope Pope".

I preferred to take the word of Chris Powell and Ben Roberts, who had told fans at the open day that summer that Pope would go 'right to the top'.

 

I still think the rumoured fee of £850,000 for Pope is an absolute p1ss take for a 23 yr old keeper with 15 years of football ahead of him.

Just look at the improvement he has made, and could still make.

 

It's about the same as we paid for Deano, what 16 years ago?

 

Surely we are capable of getting a seven figure sum?

 

Not if Meire is doing the negotiating Imagine a conversation between her and Sean Dyche. Any other Club in our position would be looking to fleece a newly promoted Premier League club with loads of money. Not us. Cousins and Lookman next.

 

Nailed it. Burnley made a £30m + profit last season, but due to Katrien publicly telling everyone that our first team is little more than a shop window, they know they don't have to part with much of it when dealing with us. Gomez for £3m and now this. Russell Slade echoed Dicky's fine words about not having to sell players cheap- welcome to the Belgian Circus, Russ!

 

Burnley still on Celtic wont happen

 

Pope still hasn't gone. Not happy to be back on the bench? Roland might have a seizure if he has to accept a lower offer if Pope holds out for a move to a Championship club or Celtic.

 

Have not heard of any talk of Henderson leaving either.

Would be quite happy for him to stay but I daresay squirrel face has other ideas.

Hopefully Henderson will try to see out his contract and bleed the buggers dry.

 

Spoke to his Uncle today reckons will still be with us at the stand of the season, said yes Burnley made a offer changed his tune from saying it was accepted the other week, also Celtic still around but not offering anything worth looking at

 

I hope he's still with us when Roland sells up.

 

Burnley are said to have increased their offer for Pope to £900,000.

A Premier League club awash with money (£100m) from the new TV deal, content to bully a Div 3 on its arse because they know they are negotiating with a woman with the mental dexterity of Worzel Gummidge.

 

I'm surprised Burnley didn't take Cousins as well. Imagine, made £100m over the season with TV, about £100m for winning the championship.

Brought Gudmundsson, Cousins and Pope for a total of £4.5m, they're still quids in

 

Lookman has been on international duty, I reckon he is 100/1 to stay with us next season.

I wouldn't mind Harriott leaving - he looked as sh1te as ever last week

 

Wow! After a months hard negotiating we've managed to extract another £50,000 from Burnley! It seems we are treated with contempt by other clubs, and rightly so. Our CEO said in Dublin that our first team is basically a shop window. What she didn't mention were the "Prices Slashed" banners stuck on that shop window.
