They all spout rubbish on SSN. It would be impossible to not to, given that there's only so much to say on any given subject/game, yet they have to fill the time with something, unless they simply repeat themselves ad infinitum.

Desperate stuff, isn't it. And I see it's already awoken an old troll from the past.

Just Stop Oil? Yeah, right. These people live in a fantasy world. It's about time they fracked off.

Everton fighting for a win thanks to SD bottlers interview after our game - brilliant

Comment of the week.

Look at the state of ManU. A club full of mega-millionaire footballers who simply couldn't give a toss.

Billy Balfour

Some really big differences in just 8 weeks to those predictions, but I’ll take 17th for us. I think we all would. I'm on the verge of dreaming about a 17th place finish, along with rebuilding plans for next season's EPL campaign. Not only that, but I've had enough of pessimism, in all aspects of l...

Perhaps Jakob will explain the psychological effect that has on other team’s perception that we are always successful in a relegation battle!!

Best to ignore the poundshop psychologist on any given subject. He's just an empty vessel.

I've read some right bull on this forum since the final whistle. I'm beginning to think that some people must live in an alternate reality where last night's was result was Burnley 2 - Everton 3.

On a night that we get a real shot in the arm for our survival chances, some people need to find some negatives Aye, and some of them don't go anywhere near Turf Moor. Armchair angry shut-ins - who view the world through a football forum. Still, I suppose it stops them from shouting at random folk ...

Poor Tarky. We win this massive game and he's still giving off negative vibes. You must be a right joy to live with. UTC.

Mullen is lucky to be alive, if he was downing full bottles of whisky like billy-o.

I wouldn't contemplate buying an overpriced telly that turned into a dumb TV the moment you ended your subscription. Yeah, I know you can buy a box, but it's hardly the point. I just find it pernicious that a company would come up with this. It's all about retentions. The 'threat' when you bargain f...

Not sure that the assumptions here are correct. Why would the debt be paid off in 2 years time?

Read my post again. I said, 'if most of the debt had been paid off'.

A friend of ours was killed by a drink-driving, selfish scumbag. I feel sick that in some way a bit of my money goes into his (Stephens) pocket. I feel the same way regarding Barnes.

Billy Balfour

I'm not sure whether we do or don't stay up this season is in the same camp, simply because the nature of gravity is that at some point we will be relegated from the Premier League, and if we don't go down this season it's quite likely to be next season or the one after, particularly given the diff...

Billy Balfour

The main reason the standing charge is increasing so much, is to compensate the fuel companies for the ‘supplier of last resort scheme’, where companies took on customers from collapsed fuel companies. So, in effect, we are paying for weak legislation and regulation. Those small-to-medium size comp...

Billy Balfour

We have been run by idiots, but this time we have the most incompetent and corrupt one of the lot. He even implemented the most freedom restricting laws we ever had, while he and his cronies totally ignored them. I couldn't go to a much loved relative's funeral due to the restrictions, and months la...

A study completed by Sheffield Hallam University just released shows that Championship clubs who have parachute payments are three times more likely to be promoted to the PL. I'm not too worried and feel we'll have enough to bounce back. Well, I'm worried, deeply worried. How many of those 'three t...

Fairly low rent, making a joke about his wife's alopecia. To be fair, he should have smacked him harder.

Stole the attention from the other winners. I've already forgotten the name of the person who directed the 'Best Dogfood' commercial.

Stick him up front and he might turn into the new Messi. I mean 'Nessie'.

That's if it all goes swimmingly.

Does this mean we are going to have a loch at him?

Pity we have been reduced to crawling to the likes of India for a trade deal. Israel can do one as well, and the same goes for the handful of other countries who have tied their now sullied reputation to Putin.

CleggHall. I can always find time, in fact in retirement I sometimes do it again mid week if it gets filthy. I'm pretty sad am I not.

Nothing wrong with a bit of mid-week filthiness. In fact, it does you good.

Just shows how low Russia has sunk under Putin. An abominated pariah state with a troll-farm media issuing nuclear threats.

Even if Turf Moor was suitable to hold a major international fixture, the infrastructure getting here would need significant improvement.

Heh. Fans arrive at the Turf, only to drown in the potholes around the Tod/Belvedere Road junction. They'll be lakes by 2028.

Billy Balfour

I don’t think they are going to defeat Ukraine so the propaganda for then matching on Poland is scary but I don’t think they will get that far. And even if they did defeat the Ukrainian Govt, by flattening every city and large town, they still couldn't hold the whole country. Nearly a month on and ...

Last night, BBC R4 said that China and India are buying Russia oil at discounts up to 25%. Also, Zelensky has lambasted Israel for refusing to sanction Russia. Israel is also refusing to send weapons to Ukraine. I'm not surprised at the first two. Pretty disgusted at the third.

Thing is, we never went toe-to-toe with 'Russia' during the Cold War because the risk was too great. Both sides had far more sense, but now we have a madman, and he's quite capable of starting a nuclear war. This is why we haven't implemented a 'no-fly zone'. We are too sensible to risk an all out c...

If Nato started a ground war, or indeed an air war, it would quickly descend into nuclear conflict. We wouldn't have to worry about fighting any more wars, that's for sure.

I was in Tod last month when I mentioned to one of the locals that it was good to see the hours of daylight were getting longer. He looked puzzled and said; what's this daylight thing you speak of?

I hope Sophy Ridge becomes the BBC's next political editor, and does the Sunday Morning programme.

So, it's 2-0 to Burnley. Now that's what I like to hear.

Billy Balfour

Bit of an overreaction? Nobody has been outright nasty, and 90% of the posts certainly aren't 'toxic' in any shape or form. All I see is a bit of banter on a football message board.

I loved what he did for us and thought he had turned over a new chapter in his life and everyone deserves another chance, especially when they are well into adulthood, but no, he didn't turn over a new chapter. He's a nasty piece of work. Some people might still be hoodwinked because he can string a...

There's no way Sean will be sacked if we go down. Why would we sack a manager who already has two Championship promotions on his CV, plus years of EPL experience? And yes, it is the years of underinvestment that have come back to bite us, even though some on here don't like to admit it. He'll be giv...

Now that isn’t going to happen. They have started to implode. Tenth place finish for them, trust me. A local Derby beckons but I won’t be going to Ewood on some crummy old 1980’s double decker.
