Burnley (h) pre-match thread (22/06/2020)

We’re 15 points (16 with GD) clear of 5th with 27 to play for. So we need max 11 points from our remaining 9 games assuming united win all 9, chelsea win 8 of 9 and leicester win 6 of 9. I’d say we’re safe for CL next season, ban aside.

These have to be games for rotation/warm up for the champions league finals in August, and for next season assuming that starts pretty soon after and you can only do that by playing strong and cohesive teams.

Not often you get competitive games to trial stuff but it would be a missed opportunity if we didn’t.
Equally we have a quality and expectation to maintain so no let up

Agreed 100% pal, was just making the point that technically we do need those extra points.

I don’t know, it could be that they are self isolating, have had operations to cure long term injuries, have long term injuries or picked up knocks in training in the past weeks.

Agreed. Just seems remarkably bad luck though ... not that I am complaining one bit!

As an Asian, i wouldn't go anywhere near the fucking place. I remember being a shit scared when i went to my first game at Maine Road, ridiculous of course, but i'd have the same feeling now going to Turf Moor and that's aged 37!

You’d be right mate, they have that small village (but in a large town) mentality, they hate anything that isn’t white and isn’t Burnley, not everyone of course but the overwhelming majority. Fucking despicable

Citeh???

I haven’t got a fucking clue what that means, but I do know that what I said was right, and that racists are utter cunnts, and it is no laughing matter. Just so we are clear

Ok. I know you're right pops. Take a blood pressure pill.

Ashley Barnes, Chris Wood and Gudmundsson are all out of the match according to SSN.

Dwight McNeil the only danger then but who has he got to cross to ? City 3-0.

I can see us getting another clean sheet. The players obviously needed that break. 3-0 maybe 3-1 but that‘s because VAR might do us again

don’t worry VAR won’t do us again this season. Now that Livarpool have won the league, we’ll probably even see VAR help us for balance.

Can they write in Burnley?
Must be difficult holding a pen with six fingers though.

I can mate ;)
