Just looked back to my post on our Clarets WhatsApp group.
I remembered posting that 83 points would be enough

Having checked I posted this on the 15th March

I think 83 points will ultimately prove enough..... But we will be promoted against Sheffield United and win the title at Ewood

I'd love to get up for Monday's game.... Bit concerned about getting home on the train so considering driving up. Though 560 miles would be a bit knackering.
Just thought I'd put it out there if anyone else was in a similar position....
My route would generally be M40 towards Birmingham.

turfytopper

it isn't though Its petty, its vindictive, its completely against the spirit of how football should be, its shows Blackburn Rovers to be the small minded team we always knew they were and it absolutely highlight just how their fan base still can't deal with us being equal (and a lot better) than th...

I am pleased they still live in hope. It is the hope that kills you.

turfytopper

It was extremely discriminatory. They treated us different than every other visitor. I'm amazed the Football League didn't step in.

It’s a mock up but a good one.

A mock up ---- but could try harder for me..... VK's top you can see the logo is back to front but the flag is the correct way round.

Would love that to have been a genuine photo.

I was gutted last may......at 64 I thought that would be the last time I'd see the Clarets in the top flight.

How wrong was I.

turfytopper

He has had a number of yellows this season.....
It was a great challenge was it..... He should have picked up a yellow minutes earlier.... I think it looked worse than it was...... Well done Tim.

turfytopper

This young lad looks fantastic. I reckon another year in the Prem would be good for him.....but I think a future England player here if he continues to develop.

turfytopper

I just hope we come away with 3 points...those lucky enough to be there need to make even more noise than normal

turfytopper

hope they can regroup and do a Notts County

turfytopper

It is clear Foster needs game time so I'm sure he'll start. I also think maybe Barnes has paid the price for his statement after the Boro game. But I'd still expect a swan song Tuesday. BPF has been in the shop window but it will be Muric in goal today. In fact as a team to confirm the title I'd exp...

My phone says diarrhea

Your phone is giving you the shitty American spelling

Diarrhea is the spelling in American English, whereas diarrhoea is the spelling in British English.

Burnley fans in the home end obviously potentially causes problems but a three year ban seems very heavy-handed.

About tomorrow night go easy hey? Catering, I'd strongly suggest instead of the crap overpriced garbage dressed up as " stadium catering" try "Popeye's" burger van at the top of New York Way, Burger & onions £2.50, Cheeseburger £3.00, hot roast pork, hot dogs, soft & hot drinks just as reasonably p...

A old friend of mine ....I've just texted him to congratulate him on his appointment....honestly I wasn't hassling him for a ticket.....

turfytopper

It is annoying that he never seems to introduce his co commentator.... I know people in the states who constantly ask me who it is..... Whilst I may know them they rarely do.

turfytopper

My friend bought 3 tickets for Sheffield United and was unable to make the game. The ticket office kindly gave him a refund.

Another vote for Adrian Heath.

turfytopper

Barnes? Barnsley surely.
I reckon Michael Duff would have been on the phone already.....

Or Charlotte?

turfytopper

Rovers aside...it was Bournemouth away where we saw the new tactical Barnes. He was brilliant that day and he's been brilliant since a revelation . He links play so well and his support for team mates superb.
Take a bow Ashley Barnes.

turfytopper

I think Michael Duff will be on the phone now......

Superb Glen!

Maybe you should set up a picket line Turfy?

I think given I haven't a ticket......that sounds appealing.

Need a brazier.

turfytopper

Sorry if this has already been covered. But I would love there to be an organised boycott of retail at Ewood.
So don't buy pies, coffee , beer or even a Twix.

Hoping for Southampton, Leeds and with a penalty kick in the final minute of the last game....Everton

Sorry to read this.. let's hope it is a good outcome.

100% positive about playing in the best league in the world.

Bird watching, including photographing them and I get a lot of excersise doing it. Its taken me all over GB and abroad, but I get as much pleasure seeing Birds in the fields and trees near home. I have a brother who is a birdwatcher (and a Claret) from Leeds… he introduced me to someone as daft as ...

Hope you aren't arriving on the HS2 mate. That would be nice.....but I don't think I'll ever see that. Up to London then Leeds ...hope to be in Burnley at 1pm if all running on time. It has been a nightmare this season with fixture changes and train strikes.... Great to get a few 3pm Saturday kick ...

I'm travelling up from Sussex on the 7.10 train. Obviously I am concerned about the weather up there..... But I've just been sent pictures of the work carried out by staff which was amazing. Just hoping the trains run okay. And the roads around the ground are deemed safe enough? Any thoughts on what...

Tim was a good friend of mine and it was nice to catch up with him at the Bournemouth game. In all seriousness I'm delighted he's been successful. A teacher by profession but a real football guy (I guess living close to his dream).

Never had that before.

When the youngsters of this stand want tickets for away games they moan that it’s unfair that older people with more points get priority. Why then did the majority not turn up last night? You’ll never have enough points if you consistently miss cup games unlike the ones with the points who turn up ...

Stuff of nightmares, wasn't it.

turfytopper

It is stupid, devaluing and wrong. But when you are Burnley you’d take it, because if we have a generation of relative success and no play off finals there may be no other way of our youngsters not there under Coyle seeing Wembley. Strangely we have played there twice since that wonderful day again...

I was disappointed to see Twine ask for Christian Eriksen's shirt at Old Trafford.

turfytopper

It is the Barnes affect.
If he'd have been on the pitch at Bramhall Lane we wouldn't have been so bullied.
The football we have played is amazing but his role in it is pivotal.

turfytopper

There are no superlatives

turfytopper

From where I sit in the LS upper it looked like Barnes' goal.
The stadium announcer said Zaroury......we were a bit surprised.
Having seen it on TV Barnes cleverly let the ball run Pele-esque. When he was celebrating the goal, he clearly pointed to Zaroury and told him it was is.

turfytopper

Thanks Tony, Sorry I didn't see you. I was also in the bottom tier.
I thought we were awesome last night. Just lacked a bit of a cutting edge and a stroke of luck in that final third.

turfytopper

Barnes has always had a great touch
