As someone else has said, he will end up back with Plymouth

I’m not reading anything in to opening day results. I remember the season Norwich lost 7-1 to Colchester on opening day and ended up pissing league one that season.

Rooney will be the first (and most predictable) sacking of the championship season though.

That post didn’t age well

Wayne Rooney's post match interview

 

[shepardo01]

Norwich have transferred ownership of club and wiped 50m of debt apparently.

I don’t count it, sounds like Lowe asked to leave. More of a resignation.

Did he jump, was he pushed or did he jump before he was pushed?

 

[Grendel]

Peter Ridsdale just said on Talksport he tried to persuade him to stay but he wanted to leave.

Well if Peter Ridsdale says that it’s clearly true

 

[TwistAndShoutCCFC1987]

Luton Burnley should be a good game tonight

 

[Trueskyblue20]

This team should piss the league to be fair, look at that bench..

 

[David O'Day]

Surely people like weghorst etc will be gone by end of window even if on loan again

 

[Cov98]

Not sure it's possible to look more of a melt than Scott Parker.

 

[David O'Day]

Forget Scott Parker was Burnley manager, not even he mess up with Burnley?

 

[Tommo1993]

Didn’t think Burnley could possibly be more boring. Then they appointed Parker.

 

[ptr]

McNally on the bench for them. Have got two centre backs injured to be fair.

 

[San Francisco]

This team should piss the league to be fair, look at that bench..

And people think we'd finish top 2 with our squad

 

[Nuskyblue]

Ref giving fouls for absolute bare arse minimum of contact, the physicality of the English game is a myth.

 

[Matt smith]

And people think we'd finish top 2 with our squad

Starting to doubt the depth in our squad

left back Centre back and midfield are definitely areas we can improve on.

Torp and Allen as a Centre midfield pair is a joke considering we want to get top 6

big marquee signing needed in the middle of the park

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

That Burnley away kit looks smart, hope we get something like that.

 

[ptr]

Luton haven’t got the same grit about them. Very surprised they’ve not been able to strengthen. Baptiste a good signing for them if he stays fit.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Burnley look very slick. Luton look the same as before.

Conor Roberts has a porn star moustache.

Burnley's no 20 looks a trickster - good player.

Burnley are keeping the ball very well

 

[SkyBlueCharlie9]

Luton playing a bit like us Saturday, albeit against better opposition.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Probably a bit of a reality check this weekend in regards to the actual strength of some of the opposition.

 

[Perennial Lurker]

God I'd forgotten how much I fucking hate Burnley, even more so with Parker at the helm

 

[Perennial Lurker]

We need an enforcer though

 

[Pusb1]

Luton look poor though

We aren’t as good as we think. Many teams have proved they are far superior to us, even in GW1

Many teams

 

[Nuskyblue]

Two soft goals conceded by Luton so far..

Burnley have been pressing like bastards, our aaatb will be torn to shreds against this lot of they're on it.

 

[Nuskyblue]

We need an enforcer though

If anything we need players to fall over and get a free kick to break up the play, Stoke fell over as soon as we looked at them.

We definitely need something in midfield tho, preferably a very good midfielder.

Completely agree, talk of the top six will be unrealistic unless that midfield area is addressed

otherwise top 10 finish

Sheffield united, Burnley and Sunderland look particularly strong

 

[Pusb1]

Was that Liam Walsh watching in the crowd with the Luton injured players? Are they rumoured to be in for him? Note he’s still without a club

 

[Perennial Lurker]

We need a proper number 6

Calm down dear

 

[Matt smith]

It is clear we are looking at that position so it’s encouraging in that sense, let’s hope it gets done
