Burnley Football Club has dismissed Head Coach Nicky Hayen with immediate effect.
The Board has taken the decision following a disappointing start to the Championship season.
Astounding

Saturday’s mean 90 minutes of sweet spot on the turbo, some how less painful than 90 minutes of Burnley.
Finally cold enough in the garage to not need the fan for the warm up as well 🥶
Pannier tank 7714 from @svrofficialsite hauls a cargo special to open East Lancashire Railway’s autumn steam gala this morning.
Yet I heard him getting pelters off some of our fans tonight? 🤯 #twitterclarets
Coudert had a stinker but equally watching Okonkwo’s distribution shows why Wrexham moved on. Could barely hit the pitch nevermind one of his teammates #twitterclarets
Clearly we were just giving everyone a head start to make it more competitive 🤥 #twitterclarets
Jaguar are done. What an awful car 😢
Maybe a hot take, but I think the new all-electric Jaguar Type 01 looks pretty good. Their initial marketing strategy was terrible, but this production version looks good and somewhat cyberpunk like. Now the question is, will anybody buy it. Deliveries start in 2027. $130k starting price. 400-mile EPA range.
A lot at stake for Jaguar with this vehicle. It's a make or break moment for them because they've bet the future of the company on this thing.
Not often you’ll find me firmly in Rees-Mogg’s corner but I guess anything can happen these days
🚨🚨 Tucker Carlson insists three times that Hitler "did not want to go to war with the UK," and twice demands that Jacob Rees-Mogg "acknowledge" it.
Hitler "didn't want war" with Britain the way a mugger doesn't want a fight with his victim. He wanted Britain to stand aside while he took Europe.
Britain publicly guaranteed Poland's independence in March 1939. Hitler invaded Poland anyway.
Rees-Mogg: "I'm very surprised you're verging on defending Hitler."
Carlson sarcastically remarks that he is a secret Nazi, then clarifies that he is neither a secret Nazi nor a public Nazi.

Increase military tasking, while also decreasing military spending 🤯
I am often asked what my priority would be if I was the prime minister. 1. Build 5 large modern day prisons. 2. While the prisons are under construction I would recruit 10,000 police and place them through a detailed training program to make their jobs recognised professionals. 3. While the prisons are being built.Recruit prison officers and make and pay them into respected professionals. 4. I would find the money by cutting back on military expenditure. In fact I would offer soldiers to apply for police or prison officer jobs. 5. My understanding of asylum seekers is that if they are trying to leave an oppressed county where they are in danger, they are supposed to go to nearest safe county. The people arriving on the shores of the UK have passed through plenty of safe countries. I would ask the Royal Navy to stop them arriving. Comments please . No jokers thanks Lord Sugar
I don’t want to see international PL games but this is a nonsense argument from someone who clearly doesn’t know the NFL.
Home advantage is huge when the crowd has the ability to prevent the other team hearing each other at the line of scrimmage.

On Wednesday 23rd September, a Royal Air Force Hawk T2 crashed near RAF Valley.
Both pilots successfully ejected using the Martin-Baker GB10LH Ejection Seat.

Saw someone driving their kid to school in a Ferrari Testarossa this morning. London is just a different world.
Car was lovely though

Not quite sure why David Thorley has gone but long overdue to move on from Chilton and get some new ideas for the men’s team
