I thought somebody on here yesterday saying we should go for Jose M was the daftest thing I'd read about managers for our club, then this comes along

It’s almost as daft as you taking the last sentence seriously …

Or - a pretty amazing effort to get relatively close to a target that nobody realistically expected them to achieve. 2 tests in, both effectively decided by a couple of individuals producing stuff that differs from the norm. Pope and Hartley first test, Jaiswal and Bumrah in this test. Good players...

Colin’s last couple of great escapes with Hudds and Rotherham were superb efforts . He knows how to shake things up ,motivate players and instill a real backs to the wall mentality. Could probs even keep us up !

AlargeClaret

India win by 106 runs . Pretty poor show from Eng attempting to get a last innings total of almost 400 in a test in India by playing Bazball

Dyche came back better and stronger,so can Kompany.

But Dyche didn’t get 100+ million to spend after our 1st promotion , having Sordell and Juke up front etc , even then we fought hard and didn’t surrender .

AlargeClaret

Anyone any idea how long Taylor’s out ? Hopefully he’s not dislocated the shoulder ?

AlargeClaret

It’s not that we don’t have talented , young quick technically gifted players , it’s that they’re not generally anywhere near the level required in the Prem . They’re by en large upper end “small european league” players who will all make a very nice living , while never troubling the main stage .

AlargeClaret

An absolute horror show they should have been out of sight , great from “ foo foo” but don’t be fooled by our performance Trafford 5- ok but very poor on 2nd Assignon 6- we just might have a proper wing back O'Shea -5 he was actually ok but is no prem player Ekdal 4- sleeping again and slow as a Bla...

A lot of conspiracies on here :lol: He got elbowed in the face for God's sake. Having had a few Muay Thai fights, I know how easily elbows cause cuts. The fight will happen.

It’s the elbow that follows through by the looks of it and that would slice it like cheesecake. It’s actually the frame before this one where you see it clip his right upper area

AlargeClaret

The video is doing the rounds, seemed a nothing of a short range left hook catches him in the eye but he's wearing a head guard so not sure how it's such a bad cut Tbf the left hook was an absolute beauty , but yeah it didn’t look like something that would normally catch the eye . Presume it sliced...

AlargeClaret

The eye injury is bloody horrible and will surely take 6 weeks before it can take hard sparring again . Months off before new date . Not sure if the blow hards on here are aware ,but Jai Opetaia who’s clearly no 1 in the world at cruiser ( the guy who supposedly “ dropped fury “ ) is ..quelle supris...

It’s pretty painful and a more disjointed mish mash I’ve ever seen as a Burnley supporter (1979) Oh , we’ve had far far worse teams through the divisions per se , but for the money spent it’s pretty sickening . My main issue is ,if we go down ( I know I know but hope springs eternal ) is yet another...

AlargeClaret

It’s a pity the club will likely make a decent profit on players yet be relegated for 2nd time in 3 seasons . This model goes hugely t1ts up if we don’t get straight back though . Roberts been a decent servant , not quite as good as Lowton as a RB but always gave his all .

AlargeClaret

I think we’ll beat Fulham ,as the thought of the gap to safety after Liverpool and Arsenal is too bad to even imagine .

AlargeClaret

Trafford 6- no chance with goals Vitinho 5- really should be anywhere near the prem O Shea 6 - put a shift in Ekdal 5- at fault for 2nd Al Dakhil 6 (+1 for v lucky goal ) lively but so naive Gudmundsson 4- did he even play ? Berge 6 the odd decent pass Brownhill 6- stuck at it Odobert 4 dropped out ...

AlargeClaret

Roberts is and always has been a horrible fecker. Doubt he’ll be here next season , but overall he’s just about been “ok”

AlargeClaret

Agree I don’t think he’s good enough for the PL but he’s definitely had some good games and works his absolute nut sack off for the team. I don’t think Taylor/Roberts are PL level either, so Vitinho isn’t the only one. I think it’s a valid point re: Roberts and Vitinho , though surely Vit is played...

AlargeClaret

Perhaps he’s had the same illness/injury that all our out of favour players have had this season ? The club have virtually closed shop on injury /player updates , citing some ludicrous “ privacy clause”

AlargeClaret

Any word at all that we’ll sign /loan a player with decent prem experience?

AlargeClaret

Been some yrs seen I saw DM , 1986 Manchester Apollo but good live band, though I’d never in a millionaire yrs call them “ hard rock “ ! Good to see them still selling out big venues .

Not exactly a French farmers protest then is it !

I’d imagine the mighty combined away supports of Grimsby , Fulham and QPR could be policed by the cleaning ladies at each club . This is a game we just MUST win

Given the fact they didn't show all of what was going on, I'm guessing you've been well informed by someone who was there? Well given the fact there seems to be endless fan vids all over Twitter it’s really not hard to decipher . Small group of wolves fans in the home start celebrating and start ge...

AlargeClaret

All the clowns on here who seem to think it’s ok for away fans in our end can perhaps see it’s potential. Though 30/40 fans spilling on the pitch and shouting is hardly the 70’s is it ? ffs I’ve seen more punches thrown outside Costa .

AlargeClaret

Defour , though his injury ravaged “in and out” tenure generally only worked at “ cameo “ level .

Oddly I thought Barton , not just his quality play but the way he lifted the place and you just knew he was 100% winner .

AlargeClaret

Almost as bad as adding hash browns , which though ok as a stand alone , are about as welcome on a full English as a turd in a christening font .

AlargeClaret

2 quick wickets have given us a sniff , 1 more wicket and they’re 10/11 can barely hold a bat . Though Patel can bat and if they get past 400 it’s gonna take a mammoth effort vs their spinners

Not sure who is directly behind the almost hysterical and ludicrous headlines of the “ if Russia invade “ “ in the event of ww3” etc though looks to be a mix of inane Tory desperation allied to our poor army recruitment numbers . While RUS will never ever be our friends , they’re not really our “ene...

Calling someone a "nonce" is probably viewed as more defamatory than calling someone boring. True , but how many gazillions of people on Twitter must use that term of abuse? he’d need very very deep pockets indeed. It doesn’t excuse JB’s inane scattergun rants though . I’d shut the place down it’s ...

I’m not sure Jeremy Vine’s legal team would agree. Perhaps Vine thinks he can afford a libel/defamation case ? as opposed to his solicitor writing a letter and a tweet being removed sans apology . I’d love to see his face if he “ wins “ ( for being called a Weasel ) and how much he’s awarded vs his...

He’s winding up B@stards fans no end which can only be a good thing. Though personally I think he’s burnt every bridge he ever had and is acting like a manic depressive on a “ high “ it doesn’t stop it being quite amusing witnessing both his very public mental breakdown while winding up the permanen...

To lose the likes of Zaha and have injuries to Olise and Eze has been an almost incalculable loss to Palace . Roy was brought in last season as a safe pair of hands , but they’ve looked dreadful and the worse palace side I’ve seen at Burnley in recent history. Roy’s team talks of “ Just give it to W...

Is what Barton has highlighted , (more from his behaviour than the literal content of his tweets) is the absolute see no evil hear no evil “media bubble” that cannot and will not openly debate /criticise when necessary poor /token women pundits . This, allied to the collective media delusion that wo...

Easy to forget he got Utd a League cup and Europa league double in his first season . Champs league , 2nd in prem and an fa cup final in his 2nd. To think of the ragged mess Man Utd are now

20million to replace the pitch ! I hope it wasn’t the same source that told you 2 x women’s games would be played on the Turf this season … there could be quite a wait ! If the women’s team were getting promoted /in the running I guess 2 end of season games would hardly wreck the pitch and be an exc...

But suprised with this one , he’d won the conference, got them to Europa final , and flying in this yrs Europa and were only couple points off top 4 week or so back .

I will never understand how people like that bloke.

The foul wasn’t given as Trafford was nowhere near the ball whatsoever , neither did the player jump , push, raise arms /elbows etc . If this was 2 outfield players going for the ball that wouldn’t have been a foul ( a minor push into the body of an oncoming player ) While this would usually be give...

What a shambolic game of football between 2 dreadful sides , just as well they’re just as bad upfront as us ,they had plenty of across box action 1st half .We looked like a bunch of strangers playing beach football .

How off beam do you have to be to consider a Conservative minister a member of the ‘wokestapo’?
