Throwing yourself to the floor when holding the defender who is also holding you is not a penalty though. It's like all those after the Liverpool game complaining that Jota should have had a penalty against Delcroix despite the fact he is clearly dragging Decroix's arm down then falls over rather th...

They are where we were 5+ years ago, lots of running round, catching teams unawares, desperate defending and the crowd really loud and supportive, but Utd could have scored a bag full this afternoon. The most significant difference to how we played using Dycheball tactics is they transition to atta...

Hard to believe we were a similar level to Brighton at one point not to long ago…

Why? Did you pay for them?

What are peoples worst performances of the season so far though? I'd say:- 1. Villa Home 2. Spurs Home 3. Chelsea Home 4. Brentford Away 5. Either Palace or Everton at home. They are the only games i would say i thought we were worse than the first game of the season in. The rest we have been relat...

Got to bring Benson and Cullen on for some minutes. WTWTCH?

We’ve let in less than West Ham did… so far…

The whimp’s just gone down as thought he’s been shot,subs coming on but still no Benson.

Time for a ban me thinks. You don’t offer anything of worth to this messageboard with your twitter-esque toxicity and this messageboard is dragged down because of it.

Foshiznik

We’ve actually not been bad out of possession. The issue is the lack of pace or movement when in possession imo

players tossing it off all over the pitch, it's unacceptable again !

I know we’ve been bad but if they’ve been doing that, then I would hope the referee would have at least had a word.

Trafford there looking to go long and zero movement. No one wants it.

Ends up going short to O'Shea.

But his distribution is 100% his fault and no one else in some posters eyes.

Foshiznik

The quality of Rice and Odegaard has to be taken into account too when criticising our players particularly in midfield.

Foshiznik

Good last 5 minutes at least

Starts for Trafford, Ramsey and Amdouni. Might as well give up. Oh I forgot we have. They can all have a stinker and be shoe ins for next week.

At least you are positive before the game. Jesus wept.

Foshiznik

I’m going for a strong performance where my heart says 1-1 but my head says 2-1 to the Arse.

Foshiznik

Shooter is a good show about an ex army sniper framed for assassinating the president. It’s like Reacher but much better.

Southland is the best show ever created.

Just watched 3 part true crime docu-series American Nightmare on Netflix. Solid 7/10

If we are going to follow the code to the letter, does that mean I should constantly flash my lights to confirm my presence to all road users?

Foshiznik

The worst are those who pull out (Whether you let them out or not) and don’t accelerate to the speed of the traffic meaning you and those behind you have to brake.

You were quick enough to accelerate out of the junction so why not continue the manoeuvre at that same eagerness?!

Foshiznik

It's no surprise that those same players who can't defend set pieces also aren't very good at scoring from them at the other end.

Foshiznik

I guess we have seen more recent examples of similar circumstances, with La Liga's deals with CVC and Dazn and Ligue 1 with Mediapro?

Foshiznik

I haven’t heard this latest interview with Matt Williams but his previous interview just after the window closed was very reassuring. Especially when he mentioned that left back cover was a priority but they were unsuccessful but “not for the want of trying”.

Foshiznik

I’ve only lived in Burnley for just over a year now but you can’t beat a meat tray from Rehmans grill house in Nelson from my experience.

That's a total misrepresentation of some fans' actual views on why they don't like the owners and it's actually more the ownership model and a general view in how football is changing for (in a lot of fans' views) for the worse, which is pretty strongly correlated with the influx of foreign ownersh...

Foshiznik

Brilliant post lord Bob. The issue that some fans have with the owners is that they came in and got rid of people and in doing so the click at the club. Those that were part of that click are no longer so and they’re bitter but the changes needed to be made long ago. The other issue some fans have ...

The referees with only a couple years in the lower league can't be any worse than the current 'elite' group who've probably felt untouchable for the last 3/4 years.

The way some parents behave is an absolute embarrassment, treating kids football as though it's the World cup final. Is it right that at academy level parents are banned from watching, or have I imagined that? This is the only reason i packed in coaching. Too many failed as child athletes so put so...

It's fun, rewarding but also painful at times, particularly dealing with some parents and opposition coaches. As a Coach you are also constantly learning. What I didn't realise until this season (I coach U13's) is how much puberty impacts development. A couple have my kids have had growth spurts an...

I was a coach for a U6s team up until U16s but this was 15 or so years ago when in my early 20s so alot has changed since then I am sure. I made 2 teams, one of the better players (as their parents were an absolute ball ache with their competitiveness and living their failed playing careers through ...

Reid/Spagnolo must be the best ever at HT adjustments. Cracking game. For those that thought the first half was slow you have to enjoy the defensive side of the game as much as the offence. There were some immense plays by both Ds. Roll on September. As a Buccaneer fan, Defence has been one of the ...

Foshiznik

I don't condone abusing players, though I think that word is being used very liberally - certainly not seen much abuse. Fans are going to get agitated though if results don't improve and certain players keep getting selected no matter what, surely you can see that? Clearly we won't agree, if you ha...

Foshiznik

All the players have had time out of the side, seemingly for minute things - not going to go through all of them but there has barely been a consistent XI which would suggest that's true and it's something many on here has alluded to. So what do you want fans to do, just pretend it's all rosy? For ...

Foshiznik

I personally rate Brownhill, but he's not played that well this season. I am not going to go as far as some have to say he's only Championship quality as i don't agree, but he definitely needs to be taken off set pieces.

Foshiznik

I don't read every post maybe there has been some abuse by posters along the way when they are frustrated but most things I've read are just people stating the obvious about his performances. It's going to get more and more toxic though if we persist in playing Trafford, that isn't his fault that i...

FFS, the whole Taylor Swift/Kelce stuff put me off the Superbowl this year, so much so that i decided for the first time in years not to take the day off today to watch it and it appears to be the best game for years!

Foshiznik

Exactly - all of which, bar O'Shea (shown his worth) and Ramsey(not shown his worth, another point of contention) have had a period out of the side. Now if only VK could show that same consistency, eh? When did Brownhill, Amdouni, Gudmundsson, Ekdal, etc. get dropped solely due to their performance...

Foshiznik

Then I'd have thought there'd be a lot more criticism of the manager and his baffling decisions - but a lot are very defensive of him and seem to think our current standing is fine. Show me one post where any poster has said that our current standing is fine and that VK has been a perfect manager t...

Foshiznik

So in your entire life you've never said a Burnley player is poor, never said a player played poorly, never said a player needs a rest, never said a player should be dropped? We've all criticised at least one player's performance this year given how bad the season has gone. It's just that most of u...

Lack of left back cover, Ekdal having the turning circle of a container ship, O'Shea's lack of awareness, Vitinho being skinned by opposing wingers most games, the manager's stubbornness not to try something/someone different, lack of marking at set pieces/corners, lack of a midfielder to take the g...
