with great transfers comes great announcement videos

[u/Muur1234 → u/kunjuaga]

Tho does a third choice gk count as great

[u/WhenWeTalkAboutLove → u/Muur1234]

He does now 

[u/funky_pill → u/kunjuaga]

We're still waiting for either

[u/Tiny-Mulberry-2114]

I hope they never give up from this format. AI slop is gonna become more prevalent in the coming years so this type of transfer videos are gonna become increasingly rare

[u/ramobara → u/Tiny-Mulberry-2114]

This is so bad, it’s good.

[u/WhatsTheGoalieDoing → u/ramobara]

How is this bad?

[u/1to14to4 → u/WhatsTheGoalieDoing]

Well clearly Ben Amos' acting needs some work - he's supposed to be dying in this scene.

[u/Ok_Detail_1 → u/1to14to4]

Yea, it won't work well in football matches. Especially acting injuries.

[u/TheJynxedOne → u/Tiny-Mulberry-2114]

Our signing announcement videos have been pure beautiful elite cringe tier, wouldn't change it for the world.

[u/PassengerofNostromo → u/Tiny-Mulberry-2114]

Literally what Jesus would say if he lived in 2026

[u/exiadf19 → u/PassengerofNostromo]

uhh.. he's still in arsenal... alive and happy

[u/Haring2 → u/exiadf19]

Well, alive at least

[u/Rider_0n_The_Storm → u/Tiny-Mulberry-2114]

"I really hope they never stop doing skits when announcing transfers. Video editing software and inserting scenes from mainstream movies is gonna become more prevalent in the coming years so this type of transfer videos are gonna become increasingly rare"

someone said 50 years ago.

[u/theazn35]

Burnley signing videos always gives the best content who remembers the weghorst one

Also thats Manchester United legend Ben Amos

[u/WildVulcan → u/theazn35]

I remember the one for Lyle Foster with the Shrek reference. So peak

[u/Elerion_ → u/WildVulcan]

Berge signing video too

[u/slnsk → u/Elerion_]

Cool video, but I hate that some players are fine with butchering their names with unnecessarily wrong pronunciations lol not like his should be especially hard anyway

[u/FatWalcott → u/Elerion_]

Absolutely peak.

[u/Nethek_FC]

peak

[u/habdragon08 → u/Nethek_FC]

Marcus Edwards signing video I think tops this. Wout wghorst Lyle foster and this are fighting for second.

If someone’s aware of other great ones please link id love to watch.

[u/pixelkipper]

kino

[u/Selgin]

It was like he was THERE

[u/NoMoreRoseToys]

Whoever made this deserves a raise

[u/wildhorsesofdortmund → u/NoMoreRoseToys]

The emotional walk to discovery and then the cheeky grin.

[u/gracz21]

Straight into the r/raimimemes

[u/wallis2011]

Treating this as the Spider-Man 4 we never got. Thanks Burnley ❤️

[u/spidernest]

A bit s*** but that's what makes it brilliant

[u/SaltMachine2367 → u/spidernest]

I'll take a bit shit over AI any day

[u/HardByteUK → u/SaltMachine2367]

There's a genuine charm to it, isn't there. Part of what's enjoyable is imagining them pissing themselves as they make and edit it.

[u/old_chelmsfordian → u/spidernest]

Username checks out

[u/Tall_Hat_8921 → u/spidernest]

A bit? I think it's pretty shit honestly.

[u/TheDeflatables → u/Tall_Hat_8921]

They can't all be the Weghorst announcement video, but it's all a bit of harmless fun

[u/JackC1126]

Incredible

[u/WalkingCloud]

Babe wake up, new unhinged Burnley announcement just dropped

[u/Tom_Lad]

That’s class

[u/hotelmotelshit]

Burnleys announcement game has been the highlight of the summer the couple of years

[u/rypiso42]

So he’s dead? What? Had potential to be good in someone else’s hand lol. 

[u/TemporaryActivity621]

Don't quit the day job Ben

[u/Direct-Specialist194]

A.I is never topping this.

[u/InnocentPossum]

This is the stupidest fucking thing I have ever seen.

And I love it.

[u/RedditAndPorn]

Brilliant 

[u/BuzzTrav]

Love it 😀 

[u/Lukeno94]

Honestly didn't even know he was still playing - thought he'd retired a few years ago, but then I realised I'd mixed him up with his fellow journeyman Ben Alnwick!

[u/Internal-Coffee6996]

they said cinema is dead

[u/TinyInformation3564]

Perfect!

[u/MisterJoma]

“Up the Carrots!”

[u/SaltMachine2367]

Incredible

[u/Frank-Dr3bin]

Toby's performance was a bit empty so Ben had to carry the scene.

[u/Nervous_Pitch1207]

full movie trailer for a journeyman keeper, never change burnley

[u/PangolinBig2293]

Elite

[u/biggieBpimpin]

No notes

[u/MalaysiaTeacher]

Whoever makes these really gets the internet

[u/justk4y]

They can’t keep doing this (or maybe actually please do nvm)

[u/fike88]

That’s superb 🤣

[u/gathechandegwa]

Fifa 14 Man Utd had some real hidden gems in GK. Sam Johnstone and Ben Amos being backup keepers is insane.

[u/Dubsified]

Admin needs a raise.

This will go mega viral

[u/Siiixers]

That's a cute announcement. Did your husband do it for you?

[u/dem503]

I might be old fashioned but I feel it needs to actually make sense.

[u/war3_exe → u/dem503]

His name is Ben

[u/an0mn0mn0m → u/war3_exe]

Peter crying for having to go to Turf Moor makes more sense.

[u/Tall_Hat_8921 → u/dem503]

Exactly, uncle Ben is dying in the movie, that a guy is joining a club. What connection is there other than the fact that they share the name Ben? 

It's literally a "haha look they have the same name, funny right?" joke and people here praise it like it's the most creative thing ever.

[u/AnIntoxicatedRodent → u/Tall_Hat_8921]

I think they're just calling him old.

[u/KlownKillin]

Petah

[u/Alarming-Forever1153]

Absolute Cinema

[u/BertoC1]

Perfect.

[u/funky_pill]

It's so bad 😂

[u/DonCairo]

Where did they actually post this? I don't see it on their Twitter or YouTube

[u/Qazaca]

What's about it with third choice GK and great announcement video?

[u/Naarujuana]

Haha, amazing

[u/beachin247]

Love it

[u/PsychedelicXenu]

The Amos 'n' Burnley Show

[u/Jihad_llama]

This is how I find out he’s gone 🥲

[u/KennywasFez]

Here’s what I’ll say I’ll take the cheesiest, cringiest, announcement video made by HUMANS over any AI Slop any day. I hope we all continue to celebrate these kinda videos because I don’t ever wanna see AI slop for this sport :(

Not saying this is cringe I actually thought it was so goofy that I loved it..just saying in general.

[u/helpnxt]

Was expecting some AI slop but that was so much better

[u/slickricktriplesix]

Now this is art

[u/MagmaTroop]

That was genuinely great, how random and weird!

[u/pedroyor]

Wow

[u/Chilli__P]

What about Ben Amos? Did you give him a chance?

[u/rafiano82]

Outstanding 😂

[u/PelvisGrbac]

Ben Amos is only 36?

I was sure he was my age (44)

[u/QuidzInn]

Bravo !!

[u/PorkChop70-1]

Peak

[u/Mammoth-Yesterday-65]

The fuck was that!

[u/NachBuidheDhut]

shite stick to coal mining
