Those guys must well and truly knackered!

exilecanada

Incredible win, that's a team with guts.

exilecanada

Extremely impressed with our 1st half display, hopefully we don't tire in 2nd half.

exilecanada

Hodgson's game plan is to tire Burnley out!

I think I'm on fairly safe ground in saying we won't be using all 5 subs this evening ...

Given the predicament we're in, I can see Long, Thompson, Dunne and Goodridge getting some game time. Nothing to lose tonight.

Steaming hot here in Southern Ontario, currently 34 degrees and humid!

I think we're in for a hammering against Palace

I watched the original 1962 version of 'The Manchurian Candidate' last night, that's one damn good movie.

I just don’t get the stupidity of some people whether it is outdoor crowds or breaking the rules at home like this. It’s selfishness beyond belief.

I would imagine an over inflated ego and the need to impress his entourage are a contributor to stupidity.

American TV is odd, the good TV is bloody brilliant, it’s not-so-good TV is the pits US network TV (CBS, NBC,ABC) is pitiful IMHO, I watch quite a few PBS broadcasts, head and shoulders above network crap. I've also seen several Brit shows recently, Bancroft, Bodyguard and The Victim, Yanks could o...

Brilliant season. That team has it all, skill, toughness and the will to win, love watching them play. Klopp brings so much enthusiasm. And...they have a good number of English players.

Hey, those are Justin Trudeau socks, surely the fancy socks style has reached your shores?

Massive win

Well done lads. I can rest easy now, we're safe as houses. Dinner will taste good tonight.

exilecanada

0-2 loss. This as all other remaining games this season worry the hell out of me! Depleted squad with only Wood among the 'walking wounded' expected to contribute this season. Morale must be at an all time low in the Dyche tenure. I wont rest easy until we're mathematically safe. Hopefully Bardsley'...

exilecanada

Dyche would never willingly sell Hendrick, he's a Dyche type player.

exilecanada

Absolutely!

I would have thought everybody would understand that the knock on affects of the last 3 months are damaging.

That really is the key to this dilemma. Cat is certainly among the pigeons.

OK, so we don't know the detail.
But what sort of deal would you offer:
Hart? I'd go nothing at all
Legzdins? ditto
Lennon? ditto
Bardsley? 1 year on a reduced wage
Hendrick? 2 years on what he's on now.

First 3 have zero value, Bardsley on same wage, Hendrick 5% increase.

What if his demands are seen as excessive?

True, that's what negotiation is all about. Upper management appears to say 'my way or the highway".

If true about Hendrick then he can go as he quite simply is not our top player to justify being the biggest earner. Sadly we missed him tonight

That's the reason we need to re-sign Hendrick, although not as the highest earner, but well within the top pay scale.

Garlick: get Bardsley signed up pronto

Exactly, he's a key part of the puzzle.

exilecanada

We have to give the 'powers who be' all the credit in world, they're doing a damn good job of making this a non contact sport! Mee barely breathed on the guy! Good thing Brian O'Niel isn't playing in this day and age.

exilecanada

Not able to even fill the bench is beyond sad! Looks like there's definitely 'trubble darn't mill'. I hope this upcoming defeat isn't too bad as to sap all confidence from the team.

The reason the country is divided is down to two things: a corrupt media who actually hate traditional American values and a Democratic party who will do and say anything to win.

Enlighten me, 'traditional American values' are.................??

Think going out to America would be a good move for Hart now. Get away from the spotlight for the last few years of his career and experience a different culture. Maybe see if Beckham will have him down in Miami? Going to MLS may work for Hart, however I'm sure he'd expect to be paid as a "designat...

Terrible game to watch, no energy. I've watched portions of all games since the return, none have had the energy level I saw in German League games. To be honest i'm dreading Mondays game vs Citeh

Not only doesn't he even pretend to hide the fact he's a fascist/racist thug, he's started to wear it like a badge. He's doing his best to strip the US of it's democracy now he's stripped it of it's credibility. US politics has always been a tough, 'wild west' full-of-crap thing, with their false m...

If anybody still thinks we'll go down i just checked the latest odds we're 250/1 to be relegated, which is even longer odds than Crystal Palace amongst many others. To put this into perspective Bornemouth, Norwich & Villa are all odds on for the drop, and Villa's cause wasn't helped by tonight's re...

A loss is more or less inevitable, the key to this game is to protect our rather impressive -6 goal difference. Personally I don't have a 'warm and fuzzy' feeling about the rest of this season despite our 39 points. Our squad is small to begin with, Wood and Barnes being out certainly doesn't help m...

Indeed. Same for Biden too - he appeared to be slurring his words in a speech the other week. It’s mildly concerning these are the two candidates for President. More than 'mildly concerning' in my book. Trump's a loose cannon and Biden's no bargain either. Biden speaks ok when reading from a script...

Nope, but I can recommend Presidente beer, served at most Dominican Republic resorts

John Entwistle, top right
My early pick of Jeff Beck was wrong. He is middle of bottom row.
Gene Simmons in Kiss outfit.
Santana, Page and Cobain on next to bottom row.
Jeff Lynne bottom left, 2 across is BB King.

2 across is Bo Diddley, guitar shape is the giveaway.

A country I have no intention of ever visiting. Some wonderful people but far too many lunatics who can legally carry guns. Not for me thank you. This story is totally outrageous and until this video emerged they were free men. Biden has stepped in now so hopefully justice might be seen to be done....

Jacques Brel. For those who have never heard or seen him, look him up on YouTube. Personally I wouldn't put Brel high on the best vocalist list, however, as a musician.....top shelf.

Bernie Sanders was the closest person the USA have come to selecting someone who'd want to change the way that money stinks out the country, yet even his own party turn their nose up at the prospect.

It's actually quite sad and disconcerting to see a POTUS floundering about in these daily updates with his advisors looking on in horror wondering what nonsense he'll come out with next.

I watched Trumps attempt at damage control earlier today, claiming his disinfectant comment was meant to be sarcasm. If there's any truth to his claim, which I doubt, doesn't alter the fact it's not his place to talk about a subject he knows nothing about.That's the science communities domain. Belie...
