There's something wrong with the site today, and I think it's affecting more than me. Trying to post is a pita. It freezes so you try, and try again. Then 5 mins later it posts all of them.....

Strange that people mark down Foster for 2 misses, when infact they were 2 good save, one brilliant.
If Onana had an off day Foster would have played exactly the same, and be a hero.

Just an observation.

People make mistakes when they can't handle the pressure, not a dig at Sander, but all our young inexperienced team.
Crying out for a,leader on the pitch to calm those nerves.

Such a shame when we have shown we should be at this level.

Just to update. I wore my old boots today, I didn't have the heart to bin them, did 8 miles and my feet were fine. So it is the boots. The first thing I noticed was that they didn't fell as tight as my new ones across the bridge of my foot, so I'm guessing I need a wider fitting boot. The squeezing ...

Whalley Warm & Dry. They sorted out a problem my sister had with one of her heel arches. They spent ages measuring her feet and making sure the boots were right. Have a look at their reviews. People travel long distances to go there.

They sound like they could be worth a visit.

What was it that was pricey, not sure of your meaning.

Colburn_Claret

Well deserved Everton, but how bad are Liverpool. Second to everything, losing the headers, there's no fight in them at all. VVD is a shadow of his former self.

Colburn_Claret

How old are you? Are you walking in walking boots? I can’t walk at moment as I have torn my meniscus. However, I had something similar a few years ago and I think it was related to my footwear. I have two pairs of Meindl walking boots and was walking stages of the Shropshire Way. 12-14 mile full da...

I do a lot of walking, 5 to 10 miles most days, longer on a regular basis. I have suddenly developed an ache under the ball of my left foot. It goes warm and starts tingling which spreads to my toes. This can appear and then disappear during the same walk, but is starting to get worse. Has anybody s...

A very good politician who did an awful lot on behalf of oaps. Looked on as soft right he was hounded by the left wingers who took over the Labour Party. They even took to pouring new members into his constituency in order to try and deselect him. A crazy attitude to a thoroughly decent man. Also an...

Utd are shite. Went for the league Cup tie, none of the tickets arrived. Told to go to their ticket office, a massive plush building behind the stadium, and loads of Burnley fans were queuing next door at a 3x6ft shed. It was chaos , made us late for kick off and had me running around the ground, fo...

I don’t see the clamour for ex-pro’s, they often don’t know the laws. I don’t know the answer to the poor quality of referees in this country, but as far as VAR is concerned, it should be manned by specialist video referee’s, not the on-field ref’s mate who’s being given a rest-day. Being a VAR req...

Colburn_Claret

It's certainly true VAR has shafted us, and without it we'd be safe, but hand on heart looking at our overall performances, we can't have any complaints. If only we'd found this form earlier, or the fixture list had been kinder. It always felt like we would be on an uphill struggle.

We live in a democracy, and changes to the FA Cup should have been voted on by all affiliated clubs. The fact the FA have agreed to this without discussion, just highlights the fact they aren't fit for purpose. I don't like political interference in sport, but the sooner the government step in the b...

Steve Taylors in the quarter final

Colburn_Claret

When we get relegated despite Forest and Everton both being deducted points, it'll be pretty difficult to argue that we don't deserve it. I think the norm is that 2 teams deserve to go, but the third team are just unlucky. This season at least 5 teams deserve to go, and the 2 that stay up have been...

Colburn_Claret

It's the hope that kills you, we've been down since November imo, how we aren't relegated already is amazing. It has been an extraordinary season. No matter what we do fate seems to have decided we are doomed, we've been the better of so many matches, especially latterly, yet the results go on the s...

Far too good for Burnley

Far too good for Chelsea as well

Colburn_Claret

This Everton side are better than most of Dyche’s Burnley sides. Particularly in central midfield and upfront with Calvert Lewin. This thread is abusing them but they will stay up easily. They just aren’t pretty. Dyche has done well with the resources at his disposal. This league is brutal. Everton...

There is something wrong with this season, and it isn't just the results. I've felt disengaged from the club, too many new faces, too many changes, I don't know. I do know I've missed more matches this season than in the last 6 combined. I'm renewing my season ticket anyway, a season in the Champion...

Can't believe how empty the Emirates is, I know they'll be ****** off but even so.
But it has reminded me of why I'd prefer City to take the title.

Prayers are with him and his family, fingers crossed he makes another recovery.

Colburn_Claret

The problem is Lyle and Fofana play the same position, and both deserve to start. Playing either out of position to accommodate them is a big mistake though. We could play 2 up front, but as we've seen it just leaves midfield weak and wide open. I'd prefer to give one an hour, and depending on the s...

Colburn_Claret

**** happens, it shouldn't but it does. Following last week doesn't help either. That said he offers a lot more positives to the team than Trafford, who still isn't ready for this level yet. Muric for me every day. I thought the misses by JBL and Fofana were just as big howlers in terms of the resul...

We might have agreed a deal, but nothing can be completed outside of a transfer window.

I'd save your powder until there is ink on a piece of paper.

Colburn_Claret

Quality player, but I don't like the way he plays for England. Has a habit of dropping too deep, or drifting wide looking for the ball when he should be playing off the shoulder of the last man.

Colburn_Claret

I think we will be in a better position than any of the teams that come down with us, so I couldn't care less.
That said Everton have deserved relegation for years, it would be poetic if they dropped.

Colburn_Claret

I'd keep Brownhill, and so long as JBL is a bargain I'd take him as well.
We do need new players, we can't bring anyone in unless we make room in the squad. Bit part players on big money contacts have to go first, a shame because some of those leaving have been great for us.

Colburn_Claret

Playing out from the back has many benefits, but it has to be played with some common sense. Firstly you play the percentages, if it's safe great but any doubt get rid safely. Just put it in row z. Secondly it invites the press, which is a good thing if you get the first part right. If you move the ...

Colburn_Claret

Like most of the squad he's learning at this level, and needs to be cut some slack. When you are at the top you make errors and get away with it, at the bottom you get punished.

Colburn_Claret

We could have played well and been relegated anyway. There have been plenty of errors, the only criticism I'd throw at Kompany is stubbornness. He's changed things too late throughout the season, and during matches. We also haven't had a scent of luck all season, be it fixture list, injuries, VAR. I...

Colburn_Claret

We saw the same last season, and from Muric. Cockups like yesterday happen, you just pray they aren't critical, and in a must win game.
He'll probably do it again at some point, but I'd still prefer Muric in goal. He offers far more positives than negatives.

Colburn_Claret

It's been the case all season that we are our own worst enemies, been throwing away opportunities all season, and continually shooting ourselves in the foot.

Colburn_Claret

Why do we hit the dressing room after 42 minutes every game.

Colburn_Claret

This might be my memory playing tricks or just a personal feeling from playing but I seem to recall that shirt pulling was sort of taboo in the days of crunching and very dubious tackles. Not saying it didn’t go on but I think it was quick to be called out and not anywhere near as prevalent (maybe ...
