If Fergie had have been the Manager the Christmas do would have been cancelled after the last seven days performances. Maybe Dyche thinks that being 13th in the table at the time of the players’ planned Christmas celebrations is not enough of a crisis to warrant pulling the plug on the event. We ha...

Looks great from outside, but the concourse was v poor, small toilets, disjointed layout and don't get me started on the bag drop. The bag drop was appalling. Took about 15 minutes and was terribly organised - clearly an afterthought which is quite surprising. And £10 per bag is just taking the p!ss.

Brilliant stadium. Didn’t have time to experience the food and drink but the ground looks great both inside and out and the view was superb. The atmosphere was pretty flat like most new grounds but there was a fair noise when they scored their first couple and also when Lennon came on. A cut above t...

He is suspended for the Palace game only. It was a ridiculous booking because he was helping set up the wall, the ball was dead and could not be played until the referee had measured the 10 yards and then blown for the kick to be taken, however, the referee took exception to Ashley doing his job. T...

I don’t know where the arm ends and the shoulder begins, not sure the officials do either. That wasn’t a handball for me though.

Very very poor. I’m sure he missed plenty for Watford but the three that stick in my head are the failure to award Barnes a penalty, penalising Tarkowski for a perfectly clean tackle on our 18 yard line and failing to give Jay Rod a free kick on the edge of their box when bundled over from behind an...

Maybe not, but I think that there has been improvement even compared to the second half of last season. I’d agree with that. We seem to create chances out of nothing and putting three goals in today after a poor first half wasn’t even a huge surprise. My point was more that it doesn’t really seem l...

I don't think our style of play changed at all really, we just had more success in the second half. I think generally we mix it up but today was certainly 80% hoofball. Very frustrating to watch but I don't mind if we're winning! Stunned we won that but Dyche is no mug. We definitely had a lot more...

That's easy - black. But only when attached to an insult. Otherwise it is an accurate description.

Agree with you totally bud. I find it odd that it is often considered 'offensive' when simply describing someone accurately.

Given that he's played this week i think it fairly safe to assume that he won't play on Saturday. He has 7 possible games for us. Good value? He hasn’t, he has 26 possible games for us should we extend his loan until the end of the season. We won’t know whether he’s been good value until his loan e...

As much as I loved Robbie Blake, as a player it wasn’t his job to judge whether a managerial appointment was the right one. Maybe it was this attitude of Blake’s and some of the other senior players that also contributed to our relegation.

He made some pretty horrible homophobic comments which would be a fair reason not to like him. He also goaded his own fans on numerous occasions when he scored which could quite understandably get people’s back up.
