DAN BURN SIGNS CONTRACT EXTENSION TO 2015!!!

[Rhys Lightning 63]

He will also be playing on-loan at Championship side Birmingham City for the duration of next season.

Very good news on both fronts

[LBNo11]

...agreed, this is good news, hopefully after a season long loan he will play a few cameo roles alongside Brede the following season. They both have the same stature and from what I have seen he will one day be the natural replacement for Brede...

[Northern Cottager]

Possibly makes us favourites for Redmond now?

[Rhys Lightning 63]

Joining up with FFC legend Lee Clark to boot

[Fernhurst]

Thanks 63....... Good news indeed.

Lets all wish him the very best in his development.

Love to see him in the first team at some point.

[MasterHaynes]

I was hoping we would do the sensible thing and extend his contract on condition of him going on loan to a championship team as his value should jump going from a youth Div 1 loanee to an young established champioship performer. Hope Clarky and his assistant who was his manager at Darlington look after him and helps him improve

[Humbled]

this is a good/smart move for all concerned...

don't know about his competition in the squad but seems like the exact right step. very happy to hear.

[Lighthouse]

He did so well last season that a step up was vital. Really good business for the player and the club. Good luck to him.

He is a natural eventual replacement for Brede. This will save us millions in the future .

I won't believe it until it is on the club we- oh...

[ToodlesMcToot]

I don't mean to be negative about this, since he's good, young, and English ( I think ) but, why only a one year extension?

I'm really just curious why we seem to only offer one year deals to our own anymore. It confuses me. To me, this just seems to set up well for him to have another good year in the Championship this season and for some other, bigger club to come in and buy him on the cheap because he's only got one year left on his contract.

Am I missing something?

[JHunter_Fulham4Life]

I like it! And the fact that he'll get Championship football on an arguably good side is encouraging for the future -- his and ours!

Fulham can take another year on him taking him to 2016

You're saying they have another year option?
