The `in Dyche we trust` brigade have been living and breathing the stuff since Day 1 on UpTheClarets.com

He`s just limped back in the apartment and shrugged his shoulders and I feel the same way now. Went to bed fuming BUT in the cold light of day we got no points from a game we were unlikely to get any from and in all honesty deserved none from. We battled well but were outclassed. It matters not when...

You have got to love Tarkowski...looks SO versatile and comfortable in `midfield`.

HiroshimaClaret

not good at all...that looks like season over.

HiroshimaClaret

Do NOT defend that Townsend...red card! Come on Burnley...make the changes and go for it.

HiroshimaClaret

Barton/Kightly and Vokes on for me

HiroshimaClaret

We are hard to watch away from home...brilliant defensively but KEEP THE BLOODY POSSESSION!!!!!!!!! JUST AS I WAS typing...game over.

HiroshimaClaret

Boyd good offensively but strangely `off it` on 2 or 3 occasions with wayward headers/passes in our area. Hard to complain though 0-0 at Arsenal. Can we though, when we get it in the midfield (we HAVE HAD some good positions) play it to Gray`s strengths on the deck? THERE IS HOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HiroshimaClaret

The Ramsey attitude actually fills me with hope. Half-time, they`re not 2 up, frustration if nowt in the next 10 minutes and who knows!!!!???

HiroshimaClaret

That back heel cross from Ramsey says to me the Arsenal mob think this a training game. Arse!

HiroshimaClaret

Time for beer No.1!

The boy`s asleep in his lucky Burnley top. He did mumble something about wanting Barton in the starting 11 and hoping Defour isn`t pushed to the left again, but let`s see where the boys take us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HiroshimaClaret

What about the matching 25k watches (not sure on exact price ) and the all expense paid holiday? We are safe already IMO, however if we beat them we can get the bunting out and it will also put them deep in the brown stuff. ... SAFE ALREADY!!!!!!???? Please don`t say that!!!!!! Love the optimism bu...

HiroshimaClaret

I really hope that Defour isn`t pushed towards the left, akin to his Southampton role. A major waste of an asset. I would really have liked to have seen Barton in there - here`s hoping for an on the front foot start, a Gray goal in the 35th minute, a Barton introduction around 65 mins and our seeing...

HiroshimaClaret

My thoughts exactly. Truth is though, special interest groups using identity politics like this aren't actually out for a genuine authentic progressive cause, mearly to further their own left wing agendas. Otherwise there would be global women's protests over Saudi Arabia, for example in its treatm...

HiroshimaClaret

Swansea pulled one out of the hat yesterday and didn`t Middlesborough get a point away to Arsenal earlier in the season? Anything is possible I just never get that sense when WE are playing away. In my mind, for us to get anything, we need to shoehorn Barnes, Defour and Barton into the starting 11. ...

He did at Preston and Everton. Then did the opposite at ManU. That said, I do kinda like the fella. The club is a mess. A drop, a firesale and a rebuild within structural parameters is the next sensible step, starting with the sacking of the bubble head who suggested buying the most inept defenders...

After cheating a wage for the best part of 2 years this money grabber has finally made his dream move (not) from WBA to Stoke, as reported on the BBC website. He went for £12m, much less than Spurs would have paid ages ago. Its a 5 1/2 year deal. Stoke must be hoping that he does not get fed up the...

It`s been a pleasure APART from claretdom (I`m joking!!!!!). Thanks for this site...brings me so close to the Clarets on a daily basis from 1000s of miles away!

HiroshimaClaret

Let`s not forget that Sunderland were equally awful last season and doomed to be relegated at the same stage. Were they? The home form WILL inevitably let us down in at least 1 or 2 games so we do need, I`d say, 5 more points from away games. Get Barton in that anchor midfield role and Bob`ll be our...

I`d hazard a guess it`s because she`s a brainless bimbo. I can`t believe I clicked on this topic...dark days!!!!!

HiroshimaClaret

Barton`s game management and `influence` will be a huge boost in away games. I noticed within minutes of coming on against Southampton, he had his arm around the ref and was in his ear regards a decision. None of our other players (NOT A CRITICISM) do this and each team needs `one`. We haven`t had A...

Was off to bed and just thought I`d have a quick peek on here. I`m glad I did as THIS has tickled me pink. I`ve heard some good `uns but this takes the proverbial biscuit. Barnes is INTEGRAL to our team/squad and can function hugely successfully in a couple of positions. Dyche must be also having a ...

I posed the question the other day - `Would it be insane to suggest Keane & Mee are one of the Top 3 central defensive partnerships in the Premier League?` Chelsea, Spurs, Liverpool, Arsenal, City, Man U, Everton, West Brom, Southampton and Leicester have all conceded less BUT many of `em play 3 cen...

HiroshimaClaret

Do you disagree? In answer to your question, I don`t disagree, in general, with your assertion. I AM coming round to the idea though that if we did try and play a more pleasing to the eye style of football, within our budget restrictions, we would be nearer to the bottom 3 than where we are at pres...

Just a bad joke...couldn`t stop myself. You used the word `conversation` instead of conversion.

It`s Phil Neville on MOTD on his smart TV tracking Joey Barton`s thought projections.

Nice photos by the way.

Only 2 at home v Leicester and Chelsea and 6 away v Arsenal, Watford , Hull , Swansea , Liverpool and Sunderland. How many points do we need and how many can we get ? We need 36 to be absolutely safe, 34 probably enough. Leics (1) Chelsea (0) Arsenal (0) Watford (1) Hull (3) Swansea (1) Liverpool (...

I saw his TV interview immediately after the game and thought it was utterly from the heart. He basically said he should never have left and he has found a home at Burnley.

He is a huge asset to our team.

Couldn`t agree more. He is the beating heart of our football team. Is it ridiculous to suggest Mee and Keane are one of the Top 3 central defensive partnerships in the Premier League?

From a reasonably good stream on t`internet...

A brilliant interview to boot from Barton.

HiroshimaClaret

Worry and question I do but what a magnificent `group` to use a Dycheism. Hard to fault the effort. Barton (one sloppy pass aside) a superb late performance.

HiroshimaClaret

he should never have left!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HiroshimaClaret

a point would be ok, I suppose but our lack of width is horrid.

HiroshimaClaret

substitutions a hard one here...vokes for Barnes? Barton for Marney? No chance he`ll bring on Kightly

HiroshimaClaret

Typical bloody Marney with a stupid challenge. It would be him for Barton if anyone today...

We have to get Defour at the base and centre of the midfield

HiroshimaClaret

COME ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Croydon Claret wrote:Saints putting some good moves together. Barton would be a good addition

I DO understand your sentiment but we need, in my opinion, someone on the line to stretch Southampton. Our compactness is stifling us, NOT Southampton. Kightly for me if nowt changes in 2o minutes and go 4-4-1-1

HiroshimaClaret

Defour`s influence on the game is being limited as he seems penned in and out of position on the left of midfield.

HiroshimaClaret

Defour a smidgeon quiet! I feel our TOTAL lack of width is an issue. Certainly competitive though.
