I'd like to think that Cornet would know of he's fit to play and if he isn't he'd say so.

City conceded two yesterday. Just need to exploit their weakness of conceding high quality goals against world class opposition.

So you're saying the last 6 years of relative success (in Burnley terms) is down to ONE man??? Wow!

It also suggests that SD has learnt nothing from him in all the time he's been telling him what to do.

They've only had to buy championship quality players for the last few years. They have then gelled at that level before stepping up. They've certainly taken a lot of people by surprise this year but we are only seven games in so a long way to go. Prime example - Toney. Some posters thought we should...

At least those of us that have seen it will probably know why it took the direction it did... not only am i disappointed by the film, i'm disappointed by how the franchise has surrendered to the woke brigade.

Agree. My point was more about the tactics rather than the actual crosses. Sorry to be argumentative on a Sunday morning but creating 47 crossing opportunities is a positive in my opinion. It only took one good one to win is the game and we barely managed that. I don't think taking poor options or ...

I disagree. The defenders weren't the issue, it was the quality of delivery.

That kit was just much nicer. Helped by having a sponsor with an inoffensive badge.

I don't really see how it was "clearly going to be more popular than the others".

I'm sure the club think they have produced three "great looking shirts" every season.

I'm not sure how the club could have predicted the demand for this when forecasting using previous season's data.

People don't half make the leap and assume that just because a firm may have a fair whack of money, that they have any interest in chucking it at BFC

Offside is the same whether in the UK, Europe, Africa. New Zealand, South America, USA or wherever. It is the interpretation that is different and this can also be affected by the use of VAR.

Just been on Premier league injury list we are down as having 6 injuries all on no return date list. Cornet, Vydra, Rodrigues, Roberts, Stephens, Long.

How reliable a source is that though? Surely they can only use information that is in the public domain or make guesses.

In my cricket watching life Moeen was one of only six proper all rounders to play for England IMHO. That is someone who could be selected for either batting or bowling on merit if they werent good enough at the other. The others...Tony Greig, Ian Botham, Andrew Flintoff, Chris Lewis and Ben Stokes....

The big disappointment for me has been Hovland. A birdie machine.

A lack of resilience. Hovland wins three of them, ...
