The arrival of Cornet does for the first time in a long while give the fans something to get excited about and look forward to. So I'd put it at 7 out of 10. So far. But give our previous 2 or 3 windows have registered well below 5 the it could be argued that we need this and the next couple of wind...

Difficult to imagine getting many, if any points
from our next 5 games as at present we look like conceding
in every game.
A draw in any of next 5 would be a start but wins are critical in the Premiership
so I'm going for 3 points. A win against Arsenal?

jurek

Not surprised. More disappointed.
Was surprised we went ahead so early but as soon as Brighton equalised
had the feeling that we were going to lose and we did.

jurek

Seems very much like many games last season. One decent half and then we struggle.
Brighton had 64% possession to our 36% even though we matched them on chances.

jurek

So what was the attendance?
Ayone know?

jurek

Much depends on whether we can remain relatively injury free. If we lose 2 or more key players for any length of time then it's difficult to see us not struggle Hopefully we can still manage to bring in one, preferably two players who can make a difference. Otherwise we'll be reliant on blooding a f...

jurek

Just logged on and can't see anything re. attendance today.

Does anyone know how many turned up?

jurek

When he was setting up for the free kick you could tell he wasn't sure of himself, his positioning and the wall. He looked like a keeper about to concede, all it needed was a half decent shot. Tend to agree with Guppyspotter on this one. Pickford wasn't happy with the positioning of the wall and ma...

Woke up this morning....got myself a gun.
Alabama 3 title song to 'The Sopranos.'

Great band by the way.

jurek

Fantastic match and two brilliant players.
Switched over from the footie and didn't switch back
until the end.

LDE: Do it for Sean!
Do it for Yorkshire!

jurek

Excellent first episode.
But a little strange watching Sean Bean playing a relatively timid teacher.
But he was very good.
Looking forward to the remaining 2 episodes.

jurek

Read somewhere that the compensation is 3m which sounds about right given Dyche has one year left on his current deal. 3m won't put Palace off I would have thought if they really want him. But not sure Palace would wish to offer Dyche a significant pay rise. He's on a decent whack at Burnley. It loo...

jurek

Much depends on whether some players leave and if so how many and whether we get any money for them. I'd be surprised if at least 2 or 3 didn't leave and there might be more. Dyche may need to be ruthless and let 2 or 3 go which will reduce the wage bill. If no one leaves then I think we'll do very ...

jurek

Well done to most of the lads. It was a team effort overall to overcome a very poor start. Luckily the three teams who were relegated also had poor starts and couldn't recover whilst we did. I think the fact that 29 points would have kept us up suggests how poor the bottom three were even though we ...

jurek

Could be anyone of 4 or 5 as no one has stood out head and shoulders above the rest. So players of the season for me - in no particular order - are: Pope, Mee, Tarks, Wood, Vydra with Lowton, Taylor, McNeil and Brownhill not too far behind. But everyone has made a contribution in the effort to stay ...

jurek

Quite a few clubs have brought in players from overseas in the past who have made an impact for their clubs and not cost the earth. And subsequently been sold on for big money. Notably Leicester with Kante and Mahrez. Brentford have done the same but with lower league players. We haven't managed to ...

jurek

Stranger things have been known to happen especially this season. Who would have predicted Liverpool losing 7-2 at Villa and then going on to lose 6 games on the trot at home? They were still top of the league at the end of December. And we were still floundering just above the bottom three. Could w...

jurek

Well, we've manged to stay up which is a huge positive especially after a poor start albeit the bottom 3 this year were very poor. Given the strangeness of the covid season we've had some notable away wins Wins at Liverpool, Everton, Arsenal, Wolves, Palace and Fulham with 13 goals for and just the ...

jurek

Some great goals there.
WIth both his head and feet.
Proving to be an integral member of the team
and on reflection extremely difficult to mark.

jurek

Thanks Milltown1882. Two very good goals too.
Much appreciated.

jurek

Would love to see tonights' goals.
Would be eternally grateful if someone could post them up.
Many thanks.

jurek

Many thanks to the players, Dyche and all at Burnley for achieving what they have this season. Not far from miraculous Especially after a very poor start. Highlights of the season for me are the away wins at Liverpool, Palace, Everton and Wolves although tonights' win was probably the most important...

jurek

12 shots on goal, 4 on target.
Must be close to a record for one half.

Just keep it up lads and I'll be a happy bunny!

jurek

Come on Burnley!
Let's put in a good performance and get a good result.
And see us stay up for another season.
A fantastic achievement especially if you look back at where we were after 7/8 games.

jurek

I shall sleep this weekend ElectroClaret but yes I shall be nervous come Monday night and shall probably not listen to the match but check out how we're doing on the BBC website. I will be delighted and relieved if we win. And worried if we lose but not let it get me down for too long. Usually a few...

jurek

Be absolutely disasterous if that happened but not impossible. Can't see it happening as Newcastle still have Sheff. United to play at home before they face Fulham so can't see them losing that one. And Fulham still have to go to Old Trafford. Fullham have to beat us on Monday. If they don't then ca...

jurek

An absolute 'must win' for Fulham and for us 'not lose'. But I'd like to think we'll go for a win to put any fears to bed. Fulham will have to go for it and hopefully we can exploit that rather than play safe with just one up front so I'd start with Vydra and Wood and hope we can create a few decent...

jurek

Have just seen highlights and the goals. Their second was poor defensively and possibly a tad fortunate given two of ours just missed connnecting with the cross. But one could also say it was a brilliant cross and anticipation from Antonio to get in their afore Tarks - I think it was. But we rarely ...

jurek

Listened to the match on the radio and it sounded as if West Ham were the better team - by far. Don't mind losing to good teams and performances and hope we don't have many, if any similar situations in our last 4. The key is our next game. Mustn't lose this as that would put the shivers on again an...

jurek

Can't recall reading whether he is or not but presume
he must be. Anyone know how much?

jurek

I'd have to say both in hindsight. The Everton win lifted us 7 points ahead of Fulham and the Wolves win put us 9 ahead. So equally important but much to admire in both (McNeiil's goal at Everton and Wood hat trick at Wolves especially) Performance wise I'd probably say Wolves but not much in it. We...

jurek

Brilliant win and performance today. Made my day and shall celebrate tonight watching MoD. Surely we'll be on first too. Have to admit was feeling apprehensive afore the game and even a little at half time but we played well and deserved the win. Think Dyche may have found the perfect formation with...

jurek

We need a result at Wolves even if it's a lucky draw.
A win would just about make us safe barring losing all our last games and Fulham
winning 3 of their last 5.
I'm sure the players will know that and hopefully perform accordingly.

jurek

It is highly unlikely either Fulham or West Brom will win all their remaining games but either could win 2 or 3 of their remaining games and possibly draw one or 2 as well. No more unlikely than us not winning any of our remaining games although of the two I think West Brom are the most likely to wi...

jurek

For us to do well and win games we need most of the team to be at their best and as of late we haven't had that. In the past our defense has been pretty solid and if anything we've struggled up front. It seems the other way round at present with Wood and Vydra playing well and scoring goals. Midfiel...

jurek

Whatever happens then I hope it's decided relatively quickly.
I can't see Palace paying Dyche much more than us or having a huge transfer
budget unless they get 50m+ for Zaha.
I suspect Dyche will want to see what the new owners are likely to be offering.
But probably not a great amount.

jurek

You have to feel a little sorry for Fulham. Well at least I do. To lose with virtually the last kick of the game must be demoralising. I think they've played some decent football over the last couple of months and been on losing end of a few games by one goal. But if this loss helps keep us up and h...

jurek

Even though Wolves are only 2 points above us and we could end up finishing above them I still would be happier if they beat Fulham albeit a draw might not be too bad. A Fulham win would make out game against Newcastle even more crucial. But as long as we match or better whatever either Newcastle, F...

jurek

I hope we'll be safe especially as we're pretty close already.
I just hope the players don't think we're safe already.
We'll all be looking over our shoulders big time if Fulham beat Wolves
on Friday night and we lose (or draw?) against Newcastle.

jurek

I think Fulham play Wolves on Friday night afore we meet Newcastle. They'll need to win that to put ourselves and Newcastle under a tad more pressure. If they don't then a draw would probably suit both us and Newcastle but must admit to having a pretty bad gut feeling that we are going to lose again...

jurek

Big, big game against Newcastle coming up.
Can't afford to lose it especially if Fulham pick something up at Villa.

jurek

There we go. I've said it twice!

All the very best conyoviejo.

If we lose out next two games then we're right back in it even more so if Fulham manage to pick up some points in their next two. Especially with Man U, Wolves and West Ham to follow. Is that likely to happen? Wouldn't wish to bet big money on it. But then if we did lose our next two we're just as l...

If the relationship between manager and players has broken down to the point where they're not giving their all for the team then arguably it's not too late to get rid. But it doesn't always or even often happen that way. Sometimes it's the relationship between manager and chairman/management. Don't...

jurek

For Newcastle to stand a chance they'll need to get Wilson and Saint Maximus? back for the run in after the international break. If they manage to do that then they still have a chance but they'll need to get something from their next two games - Spurs at home and us away. Probably 3/4 points - say ...

jurek

Not sure it's that a big result for Brighton or Newcastle. The big result for them is their game against each other tomorrow. A draw would suit us but a Newcastle win probably wouldn't. A Brighton win would put more pressure on Newcastle and still give Fulham hope. Whatever, it's our results against...

jurek

A Fulham win against Leeds would give them the confidence to think they can stay up. A Leeds win would knock Fulham back and ensure Leeds stay up. A draw wouldn't help either as such. More importantly is how we perform especially in our next two games against Southampton and Newcastle. Win those two...
