Until this afternon that is:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

how true Wolves are 2-0 up at the moment.:tongueout

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Hope you don't mind Jen but I've put your mistake right:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

enjoy it whilst it lasts

Re: rovers / burnley
 

ya obviously mean fer rest of season.:tongueout

Re: rovers / burnley
 

I've heard that a bigger club are after Coyle, well Preston are after a new manager:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

We've been enjoying it for over thirty years:thefinger

Re: rovers / burnley
 

A little further south than Preston seems the done deal. :(

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Seriously dave whats making him leave Burnley for Bolton:confused:or is it true that he's started getting stick from a section of the numpties:rolleyes:

Re: rovers / burnley
 

He's had God status until this weekend. Nobody has given him stick despite the away record, we are just grateful he got us where we are, even if it's only for one season, you can't take that away.

The messageboard has gone in to meltdown and he's getting some stick now, even though he hasn't officially said he's interested and not gone ( at least as I write this he hasn't).

Why ? Presumably Bolton have a bigger budget to spend on players, even if it is all debt. Allegedly he is actually better paid at Burnley than Megson was at Bolton. Sideways step to me

Re: rovers / burnley
 

and a backwards one if you ask me, look at hughes when he left rovers, he left because of more transfer funds, now look at him, where is he ??? remember that pic i posted about it and somebody said i doubt it, well guess what ? i was right !!

money isn't everything, coyle has the stability at burnley that hughes had at rovers, going to a club like bolton,who if things dont go right will just sack him, or stay at burnley accept the praise and, if, and i do mean if, you get relegated he will keep his job, could that same be said at bolton if he went there, i very much doubt it...

Re: rovers / burnley
 

said picture...

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Sums it up very well to me. If you recall Big Sam left Bolton for the same reasons as Hughes left Rovers, turned out to be a nightmare for him.

Re: rovers / burnley
 

There's a lot to be said for Dario Grady at Crew, the Grass isn't always greener on the other side

Re: rovers / burnley
 

on sky sports = coyle has held talks wi bolton,

Re: rovers / burnley
 

After weighing it up, i reckon owen coyle would be nuts to take the bolton job,cannot see it as advancement no matter how i look at it. if he has ambition fer that, feel he can do much better than bolton, who have very similar status to burnley.:confused:

Re: rovers / burnley
 

I think it defies everybody's logic except Coyle's. No doubt something will come out in the wash. :confused:

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Even the BBC's chief sports writer is mystified

BBC - BBC Sport: Phil McNulty: Coyle's high-risk Bolton move

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Compensation fee now agreed. Oh dear Owen :confused:

Thanks BR, brought a tear to my eye :p

Re: rovers / burnley
 

No decision fer next 24 hrs it says on sky news. so my guess he's discussing wi bread knife.:)

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Besides Peter Kay and Vernon Kay,,whats Bolton got that Burnley hasn't?

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Well it hasn't got Dingles for a start GC:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

SSN..... coyle want so leave burnley and take charge at bowton........FOOL springs to mind, but, oh well it's made my day :alright::drunk::ban::ello::alc::rofl38::banane58: :Banane57:

Re: rovers / burnley
 

folk wi 5 digits per hand fer one thing.:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Perhaps we can take Hughes back and Burnley can have Sam!!!...Ah well time to Coyle up wi a good book, its cold out!!:D

Best Regards - Taggy

Re: rovers / burnley
 

I imagine Burnley have already been in touch with Hughes..any chance of him taking the job?

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Says on Sky this mornig that Coyle has been put on Gardening Leave by Burnley, bloody tipickle, how can the lad do anything in the garden this weather:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Never mind the gardening, get him a shovel and he can start clearing some roads while he's doing nowt :)

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Too expensive I would guess. He will be sitting on a tidy severance pay and can afford to take some time off.

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Plus he only has 4 fingers and a thumb on both hands, a handicap in Burnley:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Sky Bet has Paul Jewel favourite to take over Burnley at 3/1..but lots of money going on Mike Phelan at 7/2, Mark Hughes 16/1..so far as Hughes goes some may think he will sit around and wait for a better job but at the moment there ain't any.

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Not keen on Jewell myself. I would love Phelan to have a go but it's hard to know if he could hack it as number 1 instead of a no2. If I thought we had no chance of staying up I'd say go for it now. While we have a slim chance of staying up then we probably need a bit more experience.

Re: rovers / burnley
 

:D Just a few emails ive been sent.

Exclusive to the clarets store - an updated version of the ever popular owen coyle mask. The must have for every burnley fan which has now been made reversible, so now you too can be as 2 faced as the man himself!!!:D:o

Re: rovers / burnley
 

spending his time wisely i see

Re: rovers / burnley
 

There is nothing worse than a Dingle scorned:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Think you could be right about Phelan dave, number 2s don't always move into he bosses chair that easily, i.e. Brian Kidd:rolleyes:

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Coyle now confirmed as Bolton Boss, so now the Dingles can "Officially Hate" him.:D:D:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Who ? :rolleyes:

Re: rovers / burnley
 

I wonder where on the list of hate figures he'll end up cashy, don't think he'll knock John Bond off the top though:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Not a hope in hell, Attilla the Hun would come behind him.:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Heard the Dingles want Larry Grayson from Leeds, but he's said shut that door:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

A story only exclusive to Coyle's bitch in the Daily Mirror :rolleyes:

Re: rovers / burnley
 

So I can take it Owen is no longer a legend down the Turf then dave:rolleyes:

Re: rovers / burnley
 

He's not popular :D. He was always going to move on, but the manner of how it's been done and the timing has left him public enemy no 2. It's not just us Burnley fans either, he's had quite a lot of bad press this week from many sources not connected with the club.

Having said that you notice I said public enemy no 2, the number 1 is very much his fat hack bitch Alan Nixon. The bloke is the lowest of the low. His latest movewith the Grayson story is really only there to deflect Coyle's behaviour.

Re: rovers / burnley
 

You'll have to forgive me dave but who's Alan Nixon:confused::confused::confused:

Re: rovers / burnley
 

A low life journalist who happens to be Ewan Coil's mate.

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Never read anything by him, has he stirring it dave:confused:

Re: rovers / burnley
 

He does have a habit of it

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Acting Manager now gone, along with goalkeeping coach and chief scout. Wonder where they have gone then ? :rolleyes:

Re: rovers / burnley
 

smart money at the moment is on Lee Clark. Should be interesting given his contingent of backroom staff :D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Er Er Er um Bolton:rolleyes:

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Who's on his backroom staff, oh its not Stan Turnip is it:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Nope, Terry Mcdonut and your old mate Fazackerley :D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

One name who I have not seen mentioned and would make the grade is Roberto Di Matteo

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Today's Sun is linking Paul Ince as a contender....yuk yuk, chortle chortle :D:eek::D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Faz, well that would guarantee religation dave, once a Rover always a Rover:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Probably better if The Beano had printed it. Oh hang on they are both comics aren't they :D

Rather poke my eyes out with a needle.

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Think you've got to remember beggars can't be choosers dave:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

I thought the Sun was the New Beano , Dave :):)

Re: rovers / burnley
 

just a lil note for all the accyweb dingles (GC aside coz she's lovely :D)

7 POINTS CLEAR ......AND IN THE BOTTOM THREE :D:theband::tongueout:alright:

Re: rovers / burnley
 

:rofl38::rofl38::rofl38::rofl38: seem to remember some gloating early season, well i aint gonna gloat, just repeat ravers post 7 POINTS.:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Well at least the Dingles will get a bit of respite on Saturday, the only play Chelski, and Drogba will be straight back in the team after the African cup of Nations:D:D:D:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Bit of good news for the Dingles, been on Sky this morning they will sign two players on loan before Mondays deadline. Two Chinese Internationals Wee Won One and How Lon Sin:D:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

LOL!!! Nice one that Jaysay!!

I must admit the table does look a little better at the moment...but i dare not get into gloat mode just yet, lets see how many points we have by the end of March, as ive mentioned before our Home fixture run in is much harder than Burnleys so we need the points on the board sharpish to be able to fully relax!

I notice how Sam always turns things round to reflect well on himself. His latest one now that Kalinic got off the mark in the premier league, is that it was because he had showed patience with him....he doesn't see it that he might just have scored more goals earlier...and improved Rovers position...if he'd played him sooner!!

Best Regards - Taggy

Re: rovers / burnley
 

oh sod it i dare gloat.:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

We are now 10th highest placed club in the whole uk :D

how can this be true when we look so bloody poor away.strange league this year :)
even chelsea and man u look ordinary at times
is prem league lacking something ?

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Yeah....home grown talent, honesty and respect for the punters!!:D

Best Regards - Taggy

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Quality.

8 points above the scum and it looks to just keep rising. Their Championship squad, manager and ground will be back where it belongs next season!

Roll on the 28th March.

Re: rovers / burnley
 

The Clayton End awaits you! ;)

Re: rovers / burnley
 

I see the banana boat turned up for feeding time then :D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

See Charlie is at the Turf today, was saying even though he knows nothing or very little about football, looks like he's heading to the right place then:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

It might get me next season too!!!

Re: rovers / burnley
 

I think when they told him he was to visit "Turf Moor" he had ideas of talking to plants again.....ah well cabbages will have to do!

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Yep it's all sorted :D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

does this mean an end of the "Sack Sam" posts?:rofl38::rofl38:

Re: rovers / burnley
 

No:D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Makes no exciting impact as far as prem league goes, ya not in the top 4 or even 6th then its a crap season. Ya can sod prem boring league, there's nowt to really attain other than europe, bet even man u are bored with it as rest of us are. So glad stanley are no where near it.

Re: rovers / burnley
 

And never will be, poor do when fans don't aspire for their team to play at the highest level, but obviously you know your own shortcomings and limits

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Maybe after this weeks court case and todays incident at stoke you choose your words more carefully or look closer to home.

I genuinely hope the fan concerned pulls through. Nobody should go to a football match and end up critically ill in hospital :(

Not a poor do at all, shows how little u know about the dizzy heights of the leagues below the prem, ask cashy and other rovers supporters that were suitably impressed with our game and terrace atmosphere - quote was "u dont get this at rover's " when stanley were on the ball and the crowd atmosphere behind the team. U lot cant stand in a standing terrace, u lot play less games than we do. So again na your wrong we have aspirations to move up the leagues, where do u go after the prem?↲

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Jaysay, reckon the question of whether or not we aspire to play in the Premier is largely irrelevant, as the size of the club and the catchment area means we have no realistic chance of getting there. Aspiring to div 1 is enough for us at the moment!

There are at least half a dozen lapsed Rovers fans or Rovers fans who have adopted us as their second club who stand either with or near me on the Clayton End and they all love the atmosphere because it's something you just don't get at a Premiership Stadium.

It's a real pity that your health prevents you from coming up the Stanley with me, Cashy and the lads because the craic is something else...as Taggy is going to find out! :D

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Neither did Wimbledon, but your saying if Stanley did do a Wimbledon you wouldn't be interested,:rolleyes: I would have though every football fan would have aspirations for their team to play at the top level, if not why be a fan at all :D

Premiership is all that matters jaysay - deluded! Mind u u lot may experience the excitement of the lower leagues some day its proper football! :)

Re: rovers / burnley
 

I tried proper football prior 63 decided then to set my sights higher:rolleyes:

Re: rovers / burnley
 

Wimbledon have a bigger catchment area than us; that's why they're currently averaging gates of 3-4,000 in the Blue Square Premier, while we're averaging just under 2,000 in the Football League. Tells its own story, really.

I'm quite happy STANDING on the Clayton End and hoping for Division 1! :D
