Jacob Ramsey

I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see Ramsey signing an improved contract Friday afternoon.

On the pitch on Saturday, and Isak can sign for us as we've got the pen and the table out.

"It's only a Conference League game"

Yep. That's what I remembered when I heard about the deal.

I wouldn't castigate someone for a throwaway, jokey, comment. That was just typical Brummie self-deprecation, IMO.

yep, NUFC have missed out on all their targets so far this summer , nobody seems to want to go there .

[Smirker]

What if his agent is just using Newcastle to get him a better payday here? Which is his job. Find market value, get market value. He’s only 24 and this has Albrighton part 2 written all over it. “Not Villa” is just insane. He was afraid to speak in front of a camera until a year or two ago. He hasn’t been forced on us from the media team so it may seem like he’s distant from the supporters.

He’s a great player and can still improve. If he leaves for Newcastle so be it, but to convince ourselves otherwise just isn’t grounded in fact.

Is this true?

I largely agree, but might point to him wanting Champions League and that’s one of the reasons he wants to go.

I wouldn’t slag him off for that mind.

Very noticeable he doesn't do much frontage unlike Rogers and others. Only time I remember much from him was his "it is only the conference" statement someone else shared from the back of the bus on the eve of the last match 22/23.

[Beard82]

Imagine his first chat with Howe once hes signed.   "Right - if you want to start Saturday get your dad to have a quiet word with Isak"

They did quite a big post match interview with JJ and Morgz on either ITV or the Beeb after one of our FA Cup games was live on the telly, they basically combined and won the game for us, and the presenters were loving the "young brummie lads starring for a Brummie team" vibe

They haven’t done a lot but did sign Elanga earlier in the window and have also added Ramsdale, presumably as a backup.

[Somniloquism]

As a slight aside, anyone hear anything on Aaron's recovery and Burnley? He was on the bench right at the end of the season but don't know if he appeared in any friendlies.

Yep, they replaced Dubravka with Ramsdale. It's a good upgrade.

[danno]

Ramsdale will displace Pope.

Yep.  Lots of 'he's not that great' stuff on here and I get why.  But he's very good now and could be great this season if he stays injury free.  I want(ed) to see him reach his potential here, not at bloody Newcastle who can't seem to sign anybody else.   

Anyway, players come and go.  We go again.

From The Guardian's pre-season analysis of Burnley’s prospects for the seaon

A big season for …

Aaron Ramsey suffered a serious knee injury against Arsenal in February 2024, and it has been a long road back for the former England under-20 international. Ramsey, younger brother of Aston Villa’s Jacob, joined Burnley for £14m plus add-ons in 2023 but has been restricted to one brief substitute appearance for the first team in the 18 months since his injury. “It’s easy to be forgotten about when you’re not on the pitch,” the attacking midfielder admitted last season. Now fit and with a pre-season behind him, the 22-year-old is on course for a welcome return.
