    I know this is early, but do you Burnley fans feel you have what it takes to become a consistent Premiership team? I certainly want you to do that, and after your performances against Chelsea, Fulham, Arsenal and Spurs, I see no reason why you can't get a mid-table finish.

    Where do you think you will finish?

    I haven't put Top 4 in the poll because with all respect, it won't happen.

    I believe if you make the right signings which i reckon you will do with a great manager like Owen Coyle in charge you will stay up between 13-17!

    Good Luck :thumb

    Far to early to even think about it.

    I voted for 13-17 – but wherever we end up just being in the Prem is an honor and I’m going to enjoy every minute of football.

    But like I said in the other thread underestimate us at your own risk, we’ve shown plenty of times this season we can beat Prem opposition and if we spend wisely this summer (which I have faith in Coyle that he will) then who knows what will happen.

    Transfers in summer will play a big part obviously, with bigger name players likely to be attracted to the Town with Premiership status.

    Very similar to our first promotion the the Prem, ironically with Coyle on the pitch. Amazing Cup runs (albeit we were doing it for a number of seasons - Arsenal, Everton, Villa, Liverpool) but coming into the Prem we couldn't handle it every week. We did lose our Manager though which had a big impact.

    Good luck, glad for you and Coyle, I expect he'll receive a great reception when we play each other. I can see a similar season to Hull happening, start like a house on fire but finish badly. Obviously though, far too early to be speculating.

    How big of a derby is that with Rovers? Admittedly you've not played it for a fair few years though.

    It must surely be the mother of all derbies! Rival fans hate each other and sadly there is often some bother caused by a minority of pea-brain so called fans on both sides. We last played them in FA Cup in 2004/5, drew 0-0 at Turf Moor and went out 2-1 at Ewood Park having previously beaten Liverpool at home in same competition

    You've only been here 5 minutes and already you have more threads in this forum than Fulham fans have in theirs.

    Morten Gamst Pedersen, tra lalalalaalalala!

    But yeah, huge derby, got to be one of the biggest and longest running in the country. No distance at all between the towns, fans pretty much hate each other and hell, a lot of players hate each other over the last few meetings.

    The Battle of Turf Moor..

    Dirtiest game ever? :laugh:
