Burnley (A) - Fri 11th Aug | Pre-Match Thread

[Cricket Blue]

They won their league. Maybe we should line both teams up and they give each other a guard of honour by shaking hands as one team walks past the other.

Should finishing 21st in the English pyramid constitute a trophy though?

Not really, but should winning something last season constitute a guard of honour this season? It's never been done before so why would it start now?

Probably not and don’t get me started on 3rd Division Play off winners getting one :)

It'd be a nice touch to have both League trophies being brought our by the captains for the handshake.

It’s that sort of entitled shit that fortunately isn’t part of our manager or team’s psychology. Every game is tough, Burnley have an outstanding manager, first game back in the Prem and at home. Of course we COULD lose. Fucking hell

Absolutely this one! We can lose any game it’s 11 vs 11

Get the fuck in. We are playing a proper game again in a few hours!

Lets 'ave it blueboys

Cant shake the feeling that we will start slow this season

Would never work. For one thing, we would have to fight to get the cup of coffee out of Bernardo's hand.

0-3
Gvardiol, 2x Haaland

I've put win, but sooner or later, as I often thought season after season with the Rags we'd do 'em, so Burnley fans must be thinking pretty much the same thing. Perhaps it won't be another 5-0 or 0-5. But if we win we will only need another 37pts to breathe again; lose and it'll be the full fuckin' forty!
