Since WW2 burnley won the top flight twice and had 30 consecutive seasons in the top flight - they’ve been in the top flight as much as we have since WW2

if it’s crowds that determine the definition Sunderland are twice as big as us

Sunderland are twice the size of us though ?

Are burnley and Preston bigger than West ham United? No

Moving on silly argument

And neither do you ya floof ... your argument would have burnley and preston bigger than West ham utd , they are nowhere near as big .

We also have to factor in the automatic negativity you apply to anything coventry city related

If the injury is as bad as feared, will our illustrious owners back Robins to get a good quality loan in until Jan? Or is it really Allen and Palmer

Thanks very much.
Now I get to move from worrying that Cal will be sold to worrying that Cal has an injury.

Well even if its short term its shite news. Takes us from favourites against Sunderland to around evens in my opinion. Anyone who thinks he's unimportant is terribly wrong.

Gutted for the lad TBF sounded like a life changing move. At least it’s happened before the window closed. If I was Robins I’d be working overtime to get Waghorn Walker and Kane out the door and get an AM in on loan until Jan.

Our summer recruitment has done very little to address the problems facing this team. Our lack of depth in midfield is comical, it may even be worse than last year at the moment.

If rumours are to be believed that’s pushing £50k/week in wasted wages.

Not much of a Palace fan if they can't even remember us playing each other in the same league 10 years ago.

Fans living in the so-called 'Premier League bubble' don't care about teams like Burnley any more than they care about us anyway.

Un fucking believable the amount of bed wetting going on here.
If he's sold or if he's injured, the outcome is the same as I see it, we put Sheaf into a defensive midfield roll and play Hamer as a number 10. Then we have Palmer to come in when hes match fit.
O'hare is a good player, but when everything is played through him, it makes him look better than he actually is, and makes us too predictable (imo)

I'm sure if Hamer or Palmer were given the same roll, they'd be at least as good, and would probably get more goals.

If i were to rank all league clubs in terms of "size/stature/prestige" whatever you want to call it....

I'd have us probably about where we were last year... battling playoffs in the 2nd tier... although could make an argument for anywhere between lower reaches of top division, and middle of the 2nd division.

Burnley have certainly been punching above their weight in the Premier League, but again with their history you could make a decent argument within a similar range to us...

Really it depends what you use to determine size/stature/prestige

didn't say you were mate so that's another thing you have made up

i said i was going to ignore your petty nonsense about me

why do you insist on making things up? i am very flattered

so who is going to be your target this year? the player you say is shit in the face of all evidence?
