    A lot of Derby fans are saying Hendrick is happy and wants to stay at the club - so why are Burnley making pointless bids when the player won't move anyway? That's the third bid rejected - seems a complete waste of time and effort for everyone concerned. "In excess of £7 million" would be a...

    You are entitled to your opinion but also missing from the original list is JAMIE VARDY, who must be the No 1 striker to have emerged from the Championship in the last 5 years.....in terms of England caps and league titles anyway. As an aside, I agree that Deeney is a very good player and is...

    Glaring omissions from this list are Danny Ings and Jay Rodriguez, who unlike any of the above, are FULL England internationals. Ings scored 26 goals in 45 games in 2013/14 and was named "Championship Player of the Year" that season. Also missing from the list is Charlie Austin, who bagged 28...

    Championship Table Prediction Game

    The bottom 6/7 were especially bad last season.....from Bristol City down to Bolton, Burnley gained 42 points out of a possible 42 (Goals for 39 Goals against 9).

    According to Hull Daily Mail, the Tigers are lining up a £1.5 million bid for Brighton's Beram Kayal. Seems very low to me although he only has one-year on his contract. At that sort of price, he would be a real bargain for Hull.

    Ipswich keen to sign experienced Burnley winger Michael Kightly (30), whose first-team chances have been limited at Turf Moor for the last two seasons. East Anglian Daily Times says Mick McCarthy would try to negotiate a "low" fee for Kightly, who has a year left on his contract, but that wages...

    I can't see anyone who finished in the bottom half of the Championship last season seriously challenging for the top 6 (maybe Wolves if the takeover goes through),

    Is he good at set-pieces? Burnley need a free-kick/corner kick expert to replace the released Matt Taylor, who has a wand of a left foot.

    Wolves takeover

    Glad it is Wolves being taken over and not Leeds....but soon nearly every club in the PL and championship will be owned by a rich American or Asian (chinese or thai). Once that happens it will be a free-for-all again with dog-eat-dog. If Wolves get their act together quickly, is that the two...

    No, not making figures up. Several reports saying Burnley have rejected £15 million for Keane,,,,,Lancashire Telegraph, Leicester Mercury, Daily Mail, Guardian. etc. Only takes a second to Google it if you don't believe that figure £15 million figure has been reported. Recently, Rio Ferdinand...

The article states Burnley are interested in Lees, who they...

    Championship Opening Day Fixtures

    With Newcastle playing first on a Friday night.....a good win at Fulham with two winnable home games to follow...and there must be a good chance the Magpies will stay in top spot (or joint top spot) for the entire season.

    Think we all better get used to it....Burnley have turned down a £15 million Leicester bid for centre-half Michael Keane, according to Alan Nixon and today's edition of The Sun. Brighton fans think Dunk is better than Keane so what will the Seagulls' asking price be?

    2016/17 fixtures released. Thoughts?

    The way fixtures fall is incredibly important - two seasons (2014/15) ago, Burnley had an eight-game run when they played the top eight teams at the time in February/March.....Man United (a) L 1-3, Chelsea (a) D 1-1, Swansea (h) L 0-1, Liverpool (a) L 0-2, Man City (h) W 1-0, Southampton (a) L...

    16/17 Fixture Preference

    I wish we were playing Derby away on August 6....I'd be confident of the usual good result... probably a win or draw at worst.

    Wigan have one more season of parachute money - about £9 million I think. Doubt they will make the top six.
