Agreed on Mitchell Thomas. I thought he was going to be one of Stan’s bench warmers/“good for the dressing room” types like Ronnie Jepson and Tony Ellis, but he was superb and was first on the team sheet when fit. Massively influential in our promotion season. Two more from the Waddle era as well as...

As I always say, it’s about opinions, but low marks for Lowton a surprise. I thought he was outstanding in a completely new role for him.

Don’t see how Lennon’s been any worse than anybody else? They’ve all been absolutely shocking. Weghorst looking like a carthorse, McNeil back to his old self, Cork and Brownhill completely overrun, back four being torn to shreds. Honestly looks like they were all out on the **** last night. Pathetic...

The majority of under performing football clubs operate on a hire and fire basis. Watford are probably the only ones who are remotely close to being above expected results. But hey, why not follow the rest of the clubs, spunking 150% plus wages to turnover in the championship and paying multiple co...

Unknown foreign bloke is my guess.

fungus_the_bogeyman

Absolutely gutted. Lost for words. Sean Dyche just “got”everything about Burnley and achieved more than anybody could ever have imagined. The football was starting to get stale and maybe a change was on the cards in the near future, but for it to have to come in this manner is shocking. A 50-word st...

I also think he’s a perfect partner for Brownhill as he allows him to be creative and pull the strings a bit more. He has to be more of the workhorse alongside Westwood and it doesn’t suit his game as much.

fungus_the_bogeyman

He’s had a poor season, I think, but when he’s on form, he’s by far our best midfielder. He was just beginning to hit his stride and we were getting to see what a good player he can be again. His performances were absolutely integral to our uptick in form. It was a shocking decision to drop him.

Constantly baffles me that he’s a professional referee. Today was a simple game to referee and he was abysmal. Don’t think I’ve ever seen him have a good game.

Mentioned it on the match thread at 2-0 it might be a good read.
3-0 will surely be better.
Just cooking dinner, so I'll look through slowly in a bit, and savour, with a large single malt.

Can hold off on the salt. Plenty to satisfy you on there!

Really bounced back after a poor showing against Watford. Thought he was excellent tonight. Proven to be a really solid backup left back for us. Always gives his all. Hope we can keep him.

Missing this opportunity to strengthen the midfield was absolutely criminal and will ultimately cost us our place in the PL.

4. Bitterly disappointing. Replaced our wantaway striker with a (hopefully) better one, but we needed at least two or three in just to be competitive. Good links to some players who would have undoubtedly improved us, but it’s no good if those links don’t come to fruition. Once again (for the umptee...

The return of the strong jaw. Let’s hope it’s for the rest of the season… Pope 8 - one world class save. Roberts 8 - really impressive first full start. Martinelli barely had a sniff. Would have been 9, but for a shaky five or ten minutes at the start of the second half where he looked to be tiring,...

A better summing-up of our current predicament would be hard to verbalise...

Maybe, but 10 goals last season in the PL and more goals than all our current strikers. Wouldn’t be averse to this signing at all…

Time to start the rebuild now if we can, but Dyche has more than earned a chance to bring this team back from the brink.

Pope 4 - not the same commanding presence this season. Bardsley 5 - at least he cares. Some good challenges and a couple of decent crosses. Lowton 4 - gave him one extra because he was out of position. Thomas ripped him to pieces. Tarkowski 3 - needs to go. The sooner the better. Mee 3 - what is wro...

As frustrating as Wood is at times, if he had stayed on the pitch today or we had any recognised striker to replace him with there was only one winner and it wasn't Huddersfield. It wasn’t this that lost us the game. It was the fact that Huddersfield brought on four first team players and for the u...
