TurfCast

Have we ever had to endure a six pointer so early in the season? That's what the West Brom game felt like despite it being only the fourth game of the season.

The performance was there but the result wasn't. But like Dyche said in his post-match interviews it felt like something had come back to our performance. We actually created chances. We didn't make any stupid mistakes at the back. Admittedly it was just West Brom, but it's something.

That, coupled with Ben Mee returning to first team training this week, means that maybe, just maybe, things are looking up for Burnley..?

Internationals break usually mean boredom, and if you watched England against Denmark you would see where we're coming from, but there was still plenty of news that broke over the last week for us to get our teeth sunk into.

First of all, the Premier League announced they will finally be introducing a new PPV service, which is something fans have always wanted to see. However the Premier League thought it would be a good idea to charge £15 PER GAME, which is nothing short of scandalous.

Then, the Premier League's top six tried to grab all the power, not just in the league, but across English Football as a whole, in a proposal which was sugar-coated with the PL offering help to the EFL with loans, grants and percentages.

It's been a mad week.

'Shambolic', 'Cheap, 'Horrendous'. Just some of the words flying around to describe Burnley's transfer window.

Let's be fair, it's hard to disagree. Although amazingly, some people do disagree, but that's a different debate.

Just Will Norris, a back up goalkeeper, and Dale Stephens have come in to the side, despite several first team members leaving at the start of the summer when their contracts expire.

That, coupled with a terrible start to the Premier League which has seen Burnley lose three games out of three, and there's not much to be positive about right now as a Claret.

But, as they do every week, Joe Redmond and PANELIST Simon Townley get together to go over and debate everything happening in the world of Burnley FC.

This week the news broke that James Tarkowski would be staying at Turf Moor, until the start of January at the very least, amid interested from Leicester City and West Ham.

It came as somewhat of a pleasant shock to a lot of Burnley fans who were resigned to losing him to the Foxes, with news emerging over the summer that Tarky himself would be open to a move to the King Power Stadium.

The journalist that broke the news that he was staying was Alex James from Lancs Live, in this episode we chat to Alex about what changed after it looked certain the former Brentford man would move on.

It was the best news that we could possibly have hoped for when Alex James from Lancs Live broke the story that James Tarkowski was staying at Burnley.

The Foxes were not prepared to meet Burnley's valuation of the central defender, which meant they turned their attention to Wesley Fofana at St Etienne who is set to be unveiled at the King Power over the next day or so.

In Tarky's absence the Clarets haven't had the best start to the Premier League campaign with two defeats in two games, and with Newcastle and West Brom coming up before games against Chelsea and Tottenham, points on the board are swiftly needed.

It was a defeat for a makeshift Burnley side at the King Power Stadium on the opening day of the Premier League season, but despite the scoreline there were still some decent signs going forward. Couple that with the performance the youngsters put in at Millwall in the Carabao Cup, and at the time of writing this the imminent signing of Dale Stephens, there are some reasons for optimism.

The lads also chat about the rumours that Burnley could be close to signing Harry Wilson at Liverpool, the Sheffield United game, and of course look ahead to this weekends Premier League clash against Southampton.

Premier League football is back this weekend for Burnley at Leicester City, but not before there in Carabao Cup action in a home tie against Sheffield United at Turf Moor.

However plenty of the noises coming out of the club at the moment won't fill many of the fans with much optimism. There's rumours of rifts between Dyche and the board, not much (if anything) happening in the transfer market when it comes to incomings, and even reports of a takeover which is slowing down any progress in the transfer market.

Hopefully all this negativity doesn't carry on into the season and we get off to a good start

We've made it to the big 50 without anybody taking us off the airwaves or worse yet suing us!

To celebrate this, we're going to have a couple of weeks off while the season is over. But don't worry, as we explain in the pod you're about to listen to this doesn't mean you won't hear from us during the summer!

But first, on this weeks show, the boys chat about the Player of the Year awards Night after Nick Pope cleans up, before addressing more Clarets being linked away by the national press.

We're not going to bullshit you guys – there isn't too much to talk about at the moment. But when has that stopped the TurfCast lads?

We managed to get a podcast out every single week during lockdown, and we've managed to do it again now.

Joe Redmond is joined by panelist Simon Townley to discuss some of the news surrounding the club this week as the typical end of season stories have begun cropping up.

Expect plenty of waffle though...
