Looked barely half a foot off on the frame they freezed on and the very next frame Valencia took a step back as the ball was played so was about as borderline as could be.

Barnes collapses like he's been hit my a steam train everytime he gets the slightest touch off a centre half at the back of him

Devils_Advocate

Bet the Brentfords and Swindons of this world are equally as pleased seeing us get gazumped and bemoaning the bigger clubs. This is football and it goes right down the chain at one level or another

I stand to be corrected but I can barely recall a bad decision, the game flowed fine and his use of the cards seemed good. Cant believe the marks and can only assume he's had some bad games in the past that have clouded peoples judgements

By that logic any English goalkeeper playing in the Premier League last season should have been picked for the England squad ahead of Heaton as he was only testing himself against Championship players Ive not seen much of Hart recently so Heaton may be playing better but just cos Hart is not in the ...

Having an unbelievable season but dont know how anyone can say for certain he is Englands #1 unless youre watching Joe Harts performances week in and week out

Heaton 8
Lowton 8
Keane 7
Mee 7

Tark for either Barnes or Gray

Devils_Advocate

Grays livened up a bit last 10 mins get Vokes on with him

Devils_Advocate

Agree Defour needs to be in the middle. Hendrick been good but id swap with Defour and try and get Hendrick linking up midfield and attack

Devils_Advocate

Gray needs to score cos the rest of his play today is awful. His touch and control when we have got the ball to him has been shocking. TBF Barnes not much better

If you are on a laptop or PC you can just google Kodi download which is easy. If youve never used it before might take a few days messing about and looking up guides to get the Sports add ons working but worth the effort

Wasnt pulled back at all

The Sun`s headline (think it was) regards Burnley shows how utterly incompetent national journos truly are `Young Stars Bamford and Flanagan back for Burnley`. Pure laziness and no interest whatsoever in Burnley or any other team outside of the `big boys`. Embarrassing really. From the news items i...

A great Dyche signing and invaluable in providing key cover for Gray's suspension in the same way that Reid was brilliant in the dressing room and the Juke was one goal away from being a great Premier league striker Now come on Dyche show us how good a manager you are and get someone in who can real...

Devils_Advocate

I think part of the Premier Leagues USP is its intensity which is driven by the fans passion and passed on to the players. A lot of this comes from the historical relationship between a club and its community and i also think because of our countrys size and the close proximity of all the clubs fier...

beIN Sports 12, SkyNet Sports 1 & TSN 4. Prob a few more but def showing on these

Barely way transfers get done all in one payment now, £0m upfront is a substantial fee. Maybe it's just wishful thinking. I think youre misinterpreting the upfront bit. I dont think its about whether it is a one off payment straight away or paid in installments but more about what we guarantee to p...

Devils_Advocate

Agree with C&b i thought first half he was worst player on the pitch, look disinterested and made know effort to track Ward. He might be a player Dyche could work with and get the his full potential out of him but not one to spend our money on this Jan with focus to help keep us up. Brady is def the...

Perfect January for me

Bamford recalled, Kightly sold/loaned, O'Neil loaned

Centre Mid (perm), Pacey Winger and Strker who can play the lone role in 4-5-1 (1 perm, 1 loan)

Acceptable January for me

Centre Mid (perm), Pacey Winger (perm or loan depending if we manage to offload Bamford)

Devils_Advocate

Would be a disastrous buy. We're probably about as high and over valued as we're gonna get and for an investor you'd have to gamble/risk a lot of money just to potentially tread water plus a few bad investments in terms of players and managers we would be another Blackburn waiting to happen

Devils_Advocate

Did not go the Colchester game but went Hereford. These were miserable depressing times to be a Burnley supporter, they truly were. I can't believe it when I hear some sad case say, that there best times watching the clarets was in the old 4th division days. Ok, we won the 4th division under Mullin...

For the 3rd and 4th round probably exactly the same. Once you get to the 5th round teams start to take it a bit more serious. Regardless of that from a punters point of view it would still be just another live game among the many of others and so not hold the special place it did before Sky tv

How many pieces of paper do you think Jeff has on his desk? Still regardless of that if you think Jeff is an unprofessional muppet for a slip of the tongue mistake then thats your opinion but i think he is one of the best football presenters around

Devils_Advocate

What about the Burnley penalty claim?? According to CT and Clarets Player we should have had a pen but the incident wasnt even shown. It maybe just the highlights are short or Is this just another conspiracy against giving us a pen or just CT and Clarets Player wearing their claret tinted glasses?

So the most dedicated Burnley fans made a mistake but at the end of the day they are not professional sports reporting muppets......burn Jeff Stelling at the stake for such a terrible mistake

Maybe but a lot of them probably have an unhealthy uncontrolable addiction as opposed to a good hobby

Ha ha truly spoken like the Burnley version of the public school elite...the working class Etonians!!

Ted's were the posh Catholics. Barden and Townley were the rough schools but think barden was sadly the roughest **** hole.

Sure the Ted's boys think their the bees knees living in their lovely detached homes

They are covering hundreds of teams, they are bound to make the odd mistake dont be so sensitive

Yep what a muppet fancy mixing a name up slightly and then correcting himself and even taking the mickey out of himself for it

its seemingly okay to mock the mexicans and french on talk sport, idiot advertisers using voiceover berks to parody them for profit. god forbid they try it with a Pakistani acent. If you cannot grasp how the historical context of the insults/mocking is as important as the insults/mocking themselves...

Personally think its the saturation of football and sport in general we get on TV through Sky Sports. There was a period in the 80's where the only games you could watch on TV were FA Cup games which gave it its special place. Now we can watch live matches everyday seeing two top teams play each oth...

All be it for just one game Gray looked lost up front on his own at Leicester in a 4-5-1 as he just hasnt got the ability to hold up the ball and bring the 3 supporting players into the game. Likewise Defour looked equally as poor that day playing in the hole as he doesnt get the space to pull the s...

Devils_Advocate

I think Gray and Barnes are decent subs to have to chase a game or help defend a lead. What we are missing is a quality lone striker to start in the 4-5-1 formation who has a good all round game like a Deeney or a Rodriguez and could play with either Barnes or Gray in a 4-4-2 Unfortunately strikers ...

Devils_Advocate

Never makes something for himself, when he gets it down the channels his awareness, touch and passing is poor and we arent a good enough team to give him enough of the chances he likes and needs to score goals like he did last year. Trouble is none of the other strikers are good enough at this level...

Surely Jimmy Mullen was better than Dyche? I mean he started with a far weaker squad and took us up two divisions

Devils_Advocate

Stoke didnt bully us yesterday. The beat us by playing better football and it was Burnley kicking them all over the park who were trying to be the bullies and failing miserably
