Looking forward to Burnley game.

Fancy my home town club to be promoted tonight, Parker’s done a good job for them

Fuck that sheep shagging cunts

As the RWF used to say:

We shag 'em, you eat 'em.....

Yep. I'll be shouting for .em.

I’ve got a feeling the clarets are gonna shit the bed today.

Watching this one in the hope I see something that gives me the belief that these aren't going to be immediately twatted back down again next season.

Fuck that sheep shagging cunts

Fuck that, dirty cunts

Thank fuck; I thought I'd wandered onto a L***s forum this afternoon.






Do they have a forum? Actually, do they have the leccy?

Not sure you will. Neither side is very exciting to watch. Both extremely functional, but without much talent.

 

[jimharri]

David Webb. Now there's a blast from the past.

 

[jimharri]

Choudhury? Isn't that the twat who used to go around kicking opponents when he was a Leicester player?

 

[paulchapo]

Looking at the Burnley v Sheffield United game I can't see anything but a real struggle next season for either of these teams if they come up.

 

[remember arthur mann]

Look on the bright side, if Leeds, Burnley and Sheffield go up, it'll be a hour+ away. Not the trek to Southampton or Ipswich.

Well a quarter in and it looks like you're pretty much correct. Apparently they're being "direct" which seems to mean they lump it up the pitch and just hope something happens. Sheff Utd just had a free kick in Burnley's half and lumped it up, it beat everybody and went out of play for a goal kick. Then Burnley had a free kick in Sheff Utd's half and they over-hit two crosses and it went out for a throw-in.

The commentator just described Burnley as playing "patient football". Hospital patient, maybe. Without fail they seem to pass it 4-5 times around at the back and then try and play an impossible ball forward which 90% of the time just results in them losing it.

These guys are going to get absolutely mullered.

David Webb. Now there's a blast from the past.

I remember being allowed to watch the replay of the 70 FA Cup final.

 

[i kne albert davy]

Good goal from Burnley.

 

[paulchapo]

A goal at last. 1-0 Burnley.

 

[SkyBlueFlux]

Keystone cops stuff. One defender slips, the other heads it directly into a Burnley player and it ricochets right to the feet of a completely unmarked player.

 

[jimharri]

I remember being allowed to watch the replay of the 70 FA Cup final.

If it moves, kick it.

Fuck it; even if it doesn't move, kick it. It must be a contender for the dirtiest game played in England.

In 1997, David Elleray said that if he refereed the game to the modern interpretation of the laws, he'd have sent off six players. And Michael Oliver, in 2020, said he'd have red carded 11!

 

[jimharri]

Some extras from "The Hills Have Eyes" in that crowd!

Looking at the Burnley v Sheffield United game I can't see anything but a real struggle next season for either of these teams if they come up.

All manufactured by the Yankee doodles. No relegation for the select teams. They go up and back down again..Burnley might get help being owned by a yank.

 

[paulchapo]

Burnley fans a bit premature with their mocking at only 1-0 it could yet backfire on them.
