Proper celebration at the final whistle. You can see what it means to Woody, Corky and Tarky (photo: BFC)

Over these last 4 1/2 seasons - 171 games - how many times have we heard fans and managers grumbling about us and asking how on earth they lost a game against us? Even Klopp last week said it was impossible to lose that game but that they managed to, rather than we had won it!

Decent cross for the goal - twice! Never in this world was that a shot at goal

It was only yesterday pep was calling big Sam a genius in his press conference

And Pep will call SD a genius (or similar) next week before we play them

Sorry guys, my bad mistake. BenWickes did link to the Everton website and I misread the answer to the question. Wigan did indeed win and 2-1 and we should go through to the Quarter Finals. Sorry to cause consternation amongst fellow Clarets, it has been a starnge day in Ashington today for various ...

That being the case, both the Clarets and Everton have exactly the same goal difference 7-5. I wonder if they will work it out in head to head, in which case Everton would go through and that would be a shame. Edited because I have just confirmed that it goes on a head to head basis. If Wigan won 2...

That even the best teams can lose if they do not play to their strengths with maximum effort. If you are even slightly off form you will struggle - even teams like City and Liverpool are not exempt.

bfcmik

I have a couple of friends who have posted on social media about receiving that same email but noticing it does not link to the NHS.

Theyve been playing well of late in the League and that was nowhere near their first choice 11 yesterday. I wouldnt read too much into their performance yesterday.

Good job too, because otherwise they would be below Sheff United in the table with 60+ goals conceded already

It's a happy conundrum of 2 from 4 currently imo. I highly rate Brownhill who I think is a very very astute signing, but it's all about opinions though But what if someone's opinion is that someone else's opinion is utter b*****ks? I read posts from time to time that make me think the author is a t...

Another consideration is the air travel clubs will have, when playing i.e. in Germany, Italy, or for that matter any Country. There would no short 1 hour coach trips within the North West. All the away games would involve overnight stays, before and after a game. Meaning players will spend a lot of...

I can feel tired at 6pm, 8pm and 10pm but by midnight I am wide awake. Rarely to I go to bed before 3am even if I had just 4 or 5 hours the previous night.

I think he is some way off a PL start. Behind 4 established strikers for a start, needs to up his game too, but the management team obviously see some potential in him right now.

bfcmik

I would think it will the same as the Liverpool starting XI with the exception of Pieters for the injured Taylor

Was it just me or did be pronounce MacNeil rather than McNeil all the way through?

Is there a difference? I have never tried to say Mc or Mac differently. I suppose Mc could be more of a clipped 'muc' rather than a 'mac' but in reality hardly any English people use them in any other manner than 'mac'

bfcmik

28-24 to the Buccaneers in the 4th. If you had predicted that Rodgers would have thrown 3 TDs in a game at Lambeau and still be behind I would have laughed at you.

However, the 2 veteran QBs have thrown an incredible 998 career touchdowns between them

Long needs some passing lessons I think

Good watch that

I know it's not a league game but more flowing with the movement up front

We are playing Fulham and they have their 2nd (at least) choice defence out there. Bit easier than playing against most PL defenders.

bfcmik

The u18s game at Wolves is now showing as 'interrupted' after sticking on 45+ minutes for quite a while.

Edit: Soccer 24 has now changed the scoreline to black instead of the red it uses for ongoing games. Hope it is nothing too serious

bfcmik

When Pope came out and caught that final cross I was shouting “go down! Go down!” and as he slowly dropped to the floor I knew we’d got it!!! If you watch him when we need to use time effectively (aka timewasting) he goes down after every catch and looks liable to do so from even having the ball th...

I do wonder if we would have been awarded the penalty if the crowd were there. Refs always seem to get influenced by the fans.

bfcmik

CT will confirm as I originally saw it from him but after we beat Arsenal I am sure now the only team we have not beaten during Dyche's era, who we have played, is Peterborough and we only played them once with Dyche in the 12/13 season and drew. We beat Peterborough in the cup, but, if the cup cou...

Who would have thought that the Burnley Fans watching the Mighty Clarets beat Liverpool 1-0 at Anfield on 24th. September 1974 would have to wait 16,922 days to see their team repeat the feat !! (Apologies if I miscalculated the days!!). When we drew with Liverpool 1-1 at the Turf on 8th. March 197...

Over the last 3 seasons we have won away at Liverpool, Man Utd Chelsea and Arsenal, absolutely fantastic

In the last 365 days we have beaten United, Arsenal and Liverpool away without conceding a single goal.

Barnes WILL get sent off 2nd half if he stays on

Or he may win AND SCORE a penalty

bfcmik

Disgusting from Dyche not even trying to change it. No other manager would stick with these 2 given the goal draught and the fact Dyche doesn't nor change formation is the exact reason he hasn't gone to a bigger club nor likely too Who does he bring in? The striker who hasn't scored in 20+ PL outin...

Based on the fact that at 9.00pm tonight when the second half gets underway it will be the 21st hour of the 21st day of the 21st year of the 21st century I'm going for a 2-1 scoreline tonight. But in Burnleys favour of course :) The 21st hour starts at 8pm and ends at 9pm as the day starts with 00:...

I would say no. They were only available online and weren’t even available to be watched on tv through an app unlike the games on amazon. So I would say no due to the FA player and The football league player can not be watched on a smart TV (other then through another app but my point is they don’t...

If there are any unsold home seats 2 hours before a home match kickoff then sell them off cheap for £10-20 They can be known as ‘cheap seats’ 🙂 I can just see the 20,000 person queue at 1pm, or whatever time is relevant, as all those tight gits who believe, "reducing the prices will put more bums o...

0-0 Full time. 15 points now - which is 2 more than Reading and Newcastle at the bottom of the division, though they have 2 and 1 game in hand respectively, and 2 behind Aston Villa in the final play-off spot!

I’m assuming it’s not based on performances for Burnley but mine are.

I thought the idea was to play the 90 minutes as hard as you can then shake hands (or bump fists) after the final whistle and move on. Nothing you can do about anything once the game has finished. These guys work in a profession that has relatively few workers and even fewer at the elite level they ...

bfcmik

what do you expect when our main attacking tactic is to lump it long, pick the ball up in the middle of the park, knock it to someone out wide, usually about 30/40 yards out and launch it in the box. If it's the full back it's a long diagonal, if it's the winger about 25 yards out after cutting bac...

Good grief! I just came on here to read this thread. I'm off again now for a half bottle of antidepressants!

Is the March payment the first for the following season or the last one for the Season 2020-2021? I think new payments start in March so February would be the last payment for Season 20120-2021.

I think the March payment is the last one as I seem to remember it all restarts in April. Could be last payment April though tbh.

"On another day Vids scores 2"

Vydra scoring twice in a PL game for Burnley this season?

I hope that day comes against West Ham in our next scheduled match.

I just hope Burnley actually score 2 (or more) in a PL game (or any game for that matter) for only the 2nd time this season!

I think he had the final decision as he watched it on the monitor For certain if it had been Westwood on Fernandes or Pogba it would have been red and they wouldn’t have stood up yet I thought Pogba was hit hard, and painfully, on a number of occasions but got on with it pretty quickly each time.
