Burnley - Post Match Thread

[levets]

Those saying shite performance ect. Give your head a wobble. Burnley made it hard for us adding to that a piss poor ref. I cant remember a decent 1230 kick off game. In the past 7 days we have had two away wins and qualification for the next stages of the CL. Great week

Liverpool lost there, Everton lost there, Arsenal robbed 3 points,... we won. Difficult to play there. Good win.

Trevor Francis: “It was offside, but Burnley should have had a penalty”

Ian Wright” I didn’t notice the offside at the time, but it was definitely a penalty”

Howard Webb: “ Boyd is coming back from an offside position, but the linesman is struggling with the sun. However, it’s definitely a penalty”


Have I missed a rule change?

Yer've missed several - Howie Redshirt in that shed is infallible, we don't call offsides if they get City out of a tight squeeze, and the one about us being in possession but fouling the opposition at the same time!

3 points, an away win and a chance to rest some players.

Good day

To be honest I don't give a frenchmans fuck what anybody says if we get three points, you know why? Comments don't matter, points do :-)

This sounds interesting! Does Baccers do it differently to, say, the Spaniards we have?

Yer right about the points. At the end of the day it's all that shows in the table, but it is annoying in the extreme to attempt to watch a football match with such loaded commentaries, biased summaries and laughable HT and FT analysis, or what passes through BT and the BBC as analysis. I think the emphasis is more on 'anal' than 'ysis! I've never been more grateful to a remote with a mute button.

Fck them all for once we got the rub of the green
3pts

1st infraction offside therefore no penalty

hard fought but I say again

3pts

Francis is a cnut

Bravo had a blinder!

He made the saves he was expected to make, but is probably in the bottom percentile of premier league keepers for that

He was quality today, in the air , positioning at free kicks and excellent distribution, oh and a top drawer shot stopper to boot.

I can even go along with the decision, but why not on the bench ? Had we suffered an injury in the back 3/4/5 it would surely be better to have him available.

Maybe he takes his wife shopping on Saturday afternoons and isn't available ?

I think he goes hiking. Got to get some use out of that cagoule.
