The Cheltenham keeper is on loan from the Baggies.

I thought it was an odd one, but I still hadn't heard of him.

Colburn_Claret

No surprise really, but some of the others are. Cheltenhams goalkeeper, I confess I have no idea how good he is, just surprised that if he is good enough, that he'd still be at Cheltenham. Striker from PSV who I have never heard of, I'd spell his name but I'd probably make a mess of it. Brewster, wh...

Colburn_Claret

It's never one thing though, just a combination of factors. Vyds is definitely part of that, the one thing we all knew we lacked was pace up top. Wood back and fit, will only get better as he finds his match sharpness. Josh pressing higher up the pitch, and getting the ball back in more dangerous ar...

RIP, Mark. Condolences to all family and friends.

What a difficult week for SD. Home with the family, where he should be, or up here preparing the team.

3 Weeks off now, so time to spend time at home with the family.
Our thoughts with Sean and his extended family.

RIP Mark

Are we into silly season again with the managers chop.
I'm sure some of them haven't pulled up roots, but some have done a good job, and others not given the time or the resources to achieve much.
They get well paid, but who'd be a football manager.

Genuine question: Has that ever been a part of their manifesto? I'm not aware that it has, unless it was back in the very early days of the party when it was much more left wing. Deduced from Corbyns well known stance, and Starmers insistence on their being an investigation into Markles claims. He'...

I started this thread and just want to say he was outstanding today. But one great performance every 10 games does not make him a world beater He doesn't have to be a world beater, just good enough for Burnley, and he is. I was always surprised by the Sky banner showing him to be top on interceptio...

I love the black away shirt this season, I've been surprised at how little we've used it.
That yellow kit mind, though I wouldn't wear it to the pubs when they reopen, is definitely a good omen for us.

Colburn_Claret

I don't think we can really say it's just a case of us deciding to play it on the ground, we made fewer passes yesterday than against West Brom or Spurs, and 1 in 4 of them was a long ball which was a considerably higher proportion than in those games. Clearly we're using the ball with much more pu...

Colburn_Claret

Don't understand the bashing of Ash. Barnes is quality with the ball at his feet, he has a great touch for a big bloke. He also finishes better than Vyds. The only thing Vyds is better for is that speed, but at the moment I think we need that speed. I'd keep the starting line up as it is, but no nee...

Always my favourite era of boxing. The trilogy of Hagler, Hearns and Leonard saw so many great fights that were all spectacular and had you sitting on the edge of your seat. The Leonard defeat was a sad way to end, when you think how huge Sugar Ray became over the rest of his career, all on the back...

Colburn_Claret

You’re right bud I don’t understand the sacrifice, because I don’t believe there is one. Yes, politically I am a left winger, but my view of the royals isn’t coloured by that. Even when I was young and non political I could never understand why an accident if birth gives you so much privilege. I wo...

Like Rileybobs, I thought he had a good game.
He got both pens wrong, but they were hard to pick in real time. VAR was the villain again, it makes you wonder what these refs in the studio are doing, when they are supposed to be watching the game .

Colburn_Claret

Strong hints from Richard Masters that fans will be admitted in the final weeks of the season, and to ensure fairness some fixtures will be moved. Not sure what to make of this TBH, it's encouraging that fans will be allowed to attend, but whether it's a benefit for BFC I don't know. If attendance ...

Another on the growing list of nonsensical manager sackings. He deserves better than to work for people who have no understanding of the game. I hope they go along the same footpath as the Venky's. They might not disappear, but it cost them a fortune to stay afloat. I'm off to find a Sheff U forum, ...

I know Corbyn is the bogey man but the labour party have had a long history of prominent republicans. Tony Benn is the obvious in more recent years and Keir Hardie wasn't much of a fan of the royal family either. Anyway, back to Piers Morgan, a man who was so respectful of this country's institutio...

Fantastic result
They're are doing themselves proud considering how new they are to this level.

Colburn_Claret

Agreed there will be plenty of exceptions. More just how, from an ideological viewpoint, you can see why thoughts on them would differ. Historically the Labour Party/Socialists, were never anti monarchy. If you have no Queen, then there's no Earls, Dukes, Counts, Barons, Knights or Lords. How many ...

Colburn_Claret

I think Colburn's comment was pretty reasonable even though I despise the RF and the sycophants it attracts and feeds. His lazy use of political labelling let him down. I think you're wrong, obviously, but it doesn't anger or upset me, that someone disagrees with me. I honestly believe that many pe...

Colburn_Claret

So, let's get this straight. If you don't appreciate the Monarchy, you're left-wing. If you do, you're right-wing. Mmmmmm... There are many Labour voters who support the monarchy, just as there are probably right wing groups/individuals that don't. But the previous, and present encumbent as Leader ...

Colburn_Claret

I take your points bud but as a committed anti royal I’d just like to say that the idea of royals working hard is a bit of a long call. Living a life of luxury, wealth and unbelievable privilege in exchange for entertaining, launching ships, opening things and having a weekly word with the PM (only...

You’ve made some excellent points to air your views on this in a previous post. However, I wouldn’t compare what Andrew has been through with anything like what Harry may or may not have to go through. Andrew has always appeared like a spoilt brat even before Fergie and what he has done since has g...

Colburn_Claret

I won't comment on that, because I cannot prove you right or wrong, although I can understand people taking that point of view. I worry that this marriage might be temporary. For the film star it's another notch on the bed post, for Harry it could be devastating. In the same way Andrew was never rea...

Colburn_Claret

Nobody knows the truth, or deceit, of what was said in the interview, I doubt we ever will, as the family will do nothing to extend this, and Harry must know that he has gone as far as he can. Whatever the reality this interview was a massive mistake, a complete betrayal on Harry's part, and shows t...

I quite like Morgan, despite his history. He was the first to wake up to wokism, and call it out. Never afraid of sticking it to stalling politicians. Sadly as his reputation grew, so did his ego. He's almost a muppet like parody of himself, as was. He'll land on his feet, people like him always do,...

My first hearing of Northern Soul was before I'd even heard of the Casino. I made a friend of a Burnley lad, who's dad was in the army. We went to Accy one weekend to stay with his sister. On the Saturday night he took me to Great Harwood youth club to meet his mates. The sounds blew me away. It was...

I'd be concerned if I was a Liverpool fan. We all know, in football **** happens, but you don't go from 64 games unbeaten, to losing 6 in a row, and against some average teams, being outplayed by said average teams, unless something is seriously wrong. Being on the outside its hard to tell what is w...

How terrible for his family and friends. To lose someone so young must be truly heartbreaking.

Klopp had to try and change something, he's been playing the same team for 2 months with the same result. It didn’t work out, but at least he's finally tried to do something. Their string of youngsters just don't compare to Utd, City, Arsenal or Chelsea. They've had the pants down on so many clubs b...

Truly shocking stuff.
They just aren't a team.
You can tell there's no way back for them, they are that bad.

Fulham deserve it, even though it doesn't suit us, but I think others have far more to fear than us.

Do they have a strong team. The lack of character without Henderson and VVD is amazing

I wonder if they realise that they just add to the pleasure of being a Claret.
Every insult is greeted with a big grin or a belly laugh. The more they moan, the greater the joy. Keep it up lads.

I don't think clubs getting relegated, are desperate to balance the books as they once were. Common sense finally taking hold. But it means there won't be any bargains to be had, and unless the player himself pushes for the move, they aren't likely to happen. We do need a replacement for Tarks, I do...

Sean looking a bit daft with his comments about us not getting a penalty when Vyds was supposedly tripped. Matej kicked the back of Saka’s leg. Definitely not a penalty.

That could possibly say more about Arteta than it does about Dyche. Arteta, like Klopp, can only ever see his own team. He never gives anyone any credit, and can never understand how they didn't win.

Any result at Goodison is a possibility, because you can never tell which Everton, or which Burnley will turn up.

It isn't poor, just a bit grassless in areas. It's still flat as a pancake, gives an even bounce, and doesn't cut up in a tackle.

Always want a win, but more than happy with a very good point.

Still finished with 5 shots on target to their 2, but what might have been if we could cross the bloody ball.
A lot of goal mouth scrambles, but when the lads put their bodies on the line like that, it just makes you proud to be Claret.

Good effort Eric

Colburn_Claret

strangely the stats have the match at 4 shots each. Burnley 3 on target to Gooners 1 41% possession while low, isn't for a Burnley team. The mind set is right, just the execution letting us down. We need to Josh to step up second half, but most of all we need to cut out the needless, unforced errors...
