A joke. I hope Luton have grounds to sue if they go down by less than 4 points.

Everton should’ve been relegated, let alone have a few points deducted.

BurnleyFC

We’ll be lucky to get to 20 points.

BurnleyFC

Ted Lasso?

BurnleyFC

I’m thinking of giving up on games and going to watch training sessions instead, as I seem to recall Vinny explicitly saying early doors that he could already see the superior quality from the new guys.

BurnleyFC

Not a cat in hell’s chance he gets another gig as a Premier League shoo-in.

BurnleyFC

3s and 4s.

Just standard stuff from this lot.

BurnleyFC

Didn’t do overly much when he came on for a few minutes today.

BurnleyFC

I’d keep him and let him try and bring us back but it’s getting poorer by the game, no doubt about that. He will have very little time next season to get us firing though in terms of patience. Pace will sack him Monday though, feels about the moment for him just like when he did it with Dyche. I.e,...

BurnleyFC

Now what was the point of bringing Benson on when he did?

Another baffling decision.

BurnleyFC

Stay, see where we are after 10 games next season.

BurnleyFC

How are those who want him to stay going to defend this absolute shambles? Pathetic that they continue to blindly follow the manager, Kompany has to answer with his JOB tonight! Nobody’s defending anything, its utterly, utterly shite and we’re one of the worst ever top flight teams, but I just can’...

BurnleyFC

**** off, VAR and the Premier League.

BurnleyFC

It’s technically worse, in the Premier League at least, as much as it pains me to say it.

BurnleyFC

Sadly Vinny is staying to look a bit like Paul Clement in the big league.

BurnleyFC

With some of the vitriol aimed his way by some of our 'supporters' I don't think he's ever going to recover as a BFC player. There’s (quite rightly) been very little criticism aimed his way at the actual games. Social media is a different thing that can be fairly out of control, though. I hope for ...

BurnleyFC

Bad team selection. Bad tactics. Players devoid of confidence who should’ve been taken out of the side yonks ago.

Groundhog Day again.

I've said it before. I can't blame Trafford anymore. It's now Vincent's fault for not replacing him in the side.
I actually feel sorry for Trafford. He must be so devoid of confidence it's unbelievable.

Vincent has handled the whole goalkeeping scenario dreadfully.

BurnleyFC

NOT Trafford’s fault - Vincent’s fault.

Trafford should’ve been benched weeks ago.

BurnleyFC

Wrong line up again.

Not that I thought we’d get anything this afternoon, mind.

BurnleyFC

I’m not expecting anything.

I do wonder if the extension was built into the original contract somehow and triggered on Promotion?
Same with Zaroury and Vitinho.

The contract scenario with Vitinho was that if we only paid a million, but think he’s ******* brilliant then he would get an extension.

BurnleyFC

Would really enjoy a Luton win tonight.

BurnleyFC

Too much money is that.

A million would do nicely.

BurnleyFC

Tuchel to Burnley?

BurnleyFC

Some absolute crackers mentioned so far that would make my list:

Naked Gun
Pulp Fiction
The Matrix
Shutter Island
Hot Fuzz

I’ll also throw Big Trouble in Little China in there. A cult classic.

BurnleyFC

It’s to be hoped he didn’t have the same opinion as Ahmedhodzic who didn’t think Mason Holgate deserved a red against Brighton.

BurnleyFC

Regarding the Lyle foster occurrence it's what any normal football manager would have done. You offer him time out to sort his problems out & get him the treatment & all the support he needs internally. I can't think of any football manager that would have adopted the stance of selecting him & igno...

BurnleyFC

They’ve decided to sponsor the opposition’s goals instead, so they get more exposure.

BurnleyFC

A great player from that era.

Condolences to his family.

FCBurnley by chance? I don’t know if he goes on or not.

Would you try harder if he ranted like that at you?

I’m not a professional footballer but I’d hazard a guess that it doesn’t bother them too much. Win as a team and lose as a team.

They get far more vitriol from their own fans for starters.

99.9% of the time I think criticising someone for not going to matches is unreasonable and stupid but letting us know you're OK with a price rise on something you have no intention of buying is a bit out there.

Eh?

Have you mistaken me for someone else?

BurnleyFC

There’s plenty to criticise VK for this season, but an old video of him raising his voice during a team talk at his previous club isn’t one of them.

They’re professional footballers, not children.

After the season we've endured, you'd be happy with a price rise?

They can obviously see people coming

I’m realistic.

A massive squad of staff and players, coupled with (hopefully) a promotion next season doesn’t come cheap.

BurnleyFC

There’s going to be price rise and I’m OK with that as long as it’s realistic.

Bingo/Jackpot/Right on the money.

This is EXACTLY IT and ultimately why I don't really care if he goes or not.

Want to foster a cut-throat working environment and discard players like that? Don't be surprised if the same happens to you then.

Hard to argue against this.

BurnleyFC

It wouldn’t be a bad thing for Luton, for example, but after we’ve spunked the best part of £100m away on players nowhere near the required level, yes it is a bad thing.

I suspect Alan Pace is far more worried than he’s going to let on.

BurnleyFC

This season's team wins. For the same reason that, contrary to folk myth, McNeil would have walked into our team last season. Generally the players are better. There are though two huge misses. Firstly Maatsen, and secondly Tella. Both added a physical, athletic edge that we have not replaced at fu...

BurnleyFC

Rodriguez wasn’t good enough for the Premier League two seasons ago, but is still probably a better option than our Swiss Houdini.

£19m on a kid goalkeeper

Brutal.

BurnleyFC

A fairly often asked question is “who is the best player you’ve seen against us in the Turf?” and the unanimous decision has mostly been Cesc Fabregas. There’s an opposition player almost every game doing a “Cesc Fabregas” to us this season. Even Matty Cash did a “Cesc Fabregas” to us. It’s just ano...

Brentford/Norwich away ring any bells?

Plenty.

Already covered the Norwich game. It was **** but not as bad as today - we should’ve at least scored for starters - and Brentford away under Dyche wasn’t even as bad as Brentford away under Vinny this season.

BurnleyFC

He’s not the brightest lad and he’s never in a million years captain material.

BurnleyFC

What are you on about? We successfully defended all 6 corners today, probably as many free kicks and didn’t concede a goal from them. We conceded 3 from open play, one from a pen, one from a throw (inexcusable). Our zonal marking at set plays was NOT the issue today. There were other issues but zon...

BurnleyFC

Wishing him a speedy recovery.

BurnleyFC

Considering how many corners we’ve conceded, I think it is. Would love to know the stats on how many corners/FKs we’ve successfully defended vs unsuccessfully defended. Yes, I know we have conceded most set pieces but if you conceded 10 times more than everyone else, it’s inevitable. By the way, I’...

We were relegated weren’t we? Generally considered failure, like this season.

If Dyche’s first season spending peanuts is considered a failure, this season has to be considered a ******* abomination.

Fair’s fair.

BurnleyFC

I still want VK at the helm next season, but he isn’t half making that difficult at the minute. I don’t think his job is as safe as Matt Williams makes out, though. Alan Pace already has a history of having a twitchy trigger finger as shown with Dyche. As for Potter - yes, I think he’s be about as g...

Norwich 2-0 Burnley.

It was that bad.

It wasn’t.

Granted, it was garbage, but we had chances in that game.
