Smith has come alive now

Exactly the type of player to inject experience and steel into the side. Not sure we would be near the top of his picks unfortunately.

Have we even had a single offer? No we haven’t.

Wow, just wow for being part of the inner sanctum of the Club with knowledge of our player dealings!

JohnMac

He plays for us and gives 100% every game plus more.

Of course that means nothing as he isn't deemed good enough for the Premier League by the Oracles of UTC despite being linked with other far better Premier League Clubs during his time here

JohnMac

Nobody is falling over to sign him. He has talent but seems to put more effort into silly childish celebrations and the penny hasn't dropped for him.

JohnMac

Every Manager says how players need time to adapt to the pace and power of the Premier League, often for those already with age and experience abroad. Obviously this does not apply to Burnley signings, they should hit the ground running and no excuses! Maybe we should have a real clearout and get so...

Trafford 7 - Kept a clean sheet but his decision making and distribution is worrying at times. Vitinho 7 - Not easy against a physically strong and pacey Fulham side but he dug in well. O'Shea 8** - Another really good performance from Dara gets him my MOM, needs to repeat the same! Beyer 6 - Not co...

Fantastic to see him coming of age today. My heart misses a beat everytime we concede a corner but his shot stopping today was beyond reproach.

JohnMac

Ramsey was injured when we signed him and with him wearing a brace, maybe this is a bigger problem than first considered.

Has he been rushed into playing I wonder? Sports science should prevent this but it sure looks a bit iffy him getting injured like he has so far.

JohnMac

James Trafford has come of age today, simply magnificent!

Until last evening they hadn't won but outplayed a decent Brentford side.

What a difference 3 days make :( Trafford 5 - Made a routine save but his distribution was back to its worst Vitinho 5 - Made a few good tackles but gave the ball away too often O Shea 4 - A big mistake again Ekdal 6 - His lack of pace is frightening but he is savvy enough Taylor 6 - Turning back an...

A great day topped off with gimmer getting a hatrick of posts

JohnMac

Best performance by far today, winning all his aerial battles and undeservedly booked because of the cheating McBurnie fooling the Referee by rolling around.

JohnMac

He was sublime today.

Some angry Sheffield United fans mixing into the Burnley fans next to the coaches looking for fights. Must have been a long day for them. The new wave Burnley suicide squad were hell bent on causing trouble as soon as the got near the coaches. Gobbing off at the Police and running to the windows to...

ClaretsPadiham What mess have we put ourselves in exactly? Every Club already in the PL has more experience than us and there aren't any we should expect to be better than.

Google weather also shows a 50% chance of snow until 10am and then 3pm onwards continuing throughout the day/evening.

I'll prepare for that one!

It’s that simple this game is massive. With Luton winning today we are 6 points from safety.

The usual ill thought out opening statement - 6 points puts us on 10 points. Hardly what I would consider 'Safety'.

With 75 points available we need around 33 to be in with a shout of Safety

The crowd were very good until West Ham scored then the tension was palpable. Once the second went in there wasn't a roar to gee up the lads, more of a mass exodus within seconds.

There was barely a crowd left by the time the Ref blew for full time.

JohnMac

I'm not into this blame game syndrome. Those lads picked by VK couldn't have given much more yesterday and the subs were right with Ramsey breaking through immediately. There is no blame, we were beaten by an experienced team that had the energy to give a little bit more in the final 10 minutes. The...

Trafford - 7 - Better today but needs to recycle the ball quicker at times and look both ways!
