Opening Weekend Championship Matches

Has Alan Lambourn retired? Jeff reading out the results today on GSS.

Don't worry, I'm sure old Alan is just in Magaluf for another week

 

[South Sea Blade]

No Daniel Mann on commentary tonight.... usually him and Gary Weaver share championship duties. I hope sky haven't replaced him in the name of "equality".

Think Burnley will be strong this season, after losing a load of good players it could have gone either way for them but they looked decent against one of last season's better sides. Especially if they get to spend some of the cash they raised. £20m for a nobody like McNeill and bringing in Twine for £4m is astounding business

Have we seen this seasons champions?

Considering they'd lost their long-standing manager, changed their style of play, lost most of their core experienced players and brought a load of new signings in, they were excellent.

If Kompany has managed to do that by day 1 of the season, they're going to be up there come the end.

If Costelloe kept his cool, they'd have been out of sight. Brownhill will be a big player this season.

Agree, though also slightly wary that Huddersfield were poor.

Before the match I was thinking Burnley might struggle a bit this season. Maybe not.

Probably worth noting they had a 60m loan to return this season, I think it was, after relegation. Pretty much most of their bet gain on fees is going to cover that. Don't think they have money burning a hole in their pocket.

My doubt still is who is going to score their goals?

I suspect Barnes, Rodriguez and Vydra will have more luck at this level
