Jordan Sinnott

On loan to Matlock Town from Alfreton Town, Jordan Sinnott was assaulted last night and died this evening having suffered a fractured skull. Just 25, he’s the son of former Bradford City and Huddersfield player Lee Sinnott. An 27 year old is being detained by the police for what is now a murder inve...

Re: Robbie Brady

He’s a player that probably needs a run of games to get any sort of confidence and form back. The problem is he’s been so poor when he’s played we can’t give him that. Totally agree with that. I don't think he's played successive games in a long time, maybe since he came back from the long term inj...

That’s a bit unfair. You can’t keep banging on about not taking Europe seriously when we were very unlucky against Olympiakos.

In all fairness we should have been well buried before they score the 1st. But you change 3 out of the back 5 and you tend to lose fluidity. How Long gets in that 11 day ahead of Gibson is truly baffling imo
Gibson wasn't available today but I'm not sure we will see him in a Burnley shirt again

Re: REPORT: A special night to remember

With regard to Jon Moss, I didn't realise this until pointed out by a boro colleague, the free kick for the Wood goal was actually taken in the wrong half!!! Keown made comment on that on MOTD. It was like most free kicks, taken a few yards forward but more noticeable because of the half way line.
