Lol what an amazing signing this is. The mighty Sam Vokes leading the line Will massively improve us and we've managed to get an ineffective high earner off the books saving us a bit of cash, nothing to be disappointed about.

It’s a 😢😢😢😢 from me. But it had to come to a end as Crouchy is more likely to pursue a media career than coaching. It’s good that he is linked to such a good signing as Vokes.

Burnley fans have gone from £12m Che Adams to 38 year old Peter Crouch!

As little as Crouch offered come the end, I sort of hoped and expected he’d end his career here. A bit sad that he isn’t given that we’ve been the club he’s served more than any other in his career.
Cheers, Crouchy.

I didn't know Vokes was Welsh? No that it makes any difference.
he actually looks like he should be at stoke. He reminds me of some of our away support sniffing beak in Watford 'spoons toilets
go-arn Svoke go-arn svoke!

Burnley were reportedly asking for 10 million for Vokes, so for us to effectively get 3m for a 38 year old with 6 months left on his contract and to get a big earner off the wage bill is great business by the club

Fuck... right in the feels. It was the right time but always hurts to say goodbye to someone as influential and important as Crouch has been for us. Hate the term and how frequently it's used, but he's a modern Stoke legend for me.

To outsiders, Crouch is one of a few iconic players of ours.
Matthews, Banks, Greenhoff, Delap, Crouch.
Hopefully he notches a couple more for Burnley in the Premier League, and hopefully we start giving our forwards regular decent service. By all accounts, Vokes looks like a Crouch upgrade (who I think would've scored more himself given decent service).

He may have divided footballing opinion but I'd hope we can all agree a model pro, nice guy and perfect DNA. The dressing room has lost a great personality.
Dyche is no duffer he's got a lot more to offer than his work on the pitch. The way they set up I'm sure there are a couple of important PL goals from the bench from the big man.
When we went up no fucker wanted to come to Stoke, he opened the gates for those other big name signings.

Fucking hell that video is emotional!
He absolutely loves every single goal he scores and I fucking love that.
Our dressing room will have a 6 ft 7" in it.
