CSMTAC on YouTube

I have been subscribed to this channel on YouTube for quite a few years due to the most random (but hugely appreciated) uploads of mid 90’s Burnley matches and season review videos.

Re: Notts Forest: do you now have hope we will survive?

Always hope, but not expectation. Realism says we’re still a team capable of leaking goals, but we have scored 2 in each of our last two games which is progress. We need to beat a big side to have a chance - big boy pants time required at Chelsea.

Aubameyang did nothing after Arsenal but when he played against us (hat-trick) he would have to be up there with anyone else I’ve seen play against Burnley at Turf Moor.

Good performance yet again let down by the ineptitude of the defence. We have no hope when you’re defending like O’Shea and Esteve do. One ball dinked over their head or round the side and they’re ball watching every time.

Cullen, Berge and Fofana all very good today.
