26 Points !!! Yes you heard right ... 26 Blooming Points

Incredible. Truly stunning half season. Every player today gave everything for the shirt, hero's everywhere, joey and Tom of course but Ward & Hendrick were outstanding too.
What a time to be a Claret. Just glowing with pride that our Club is Top 10 in allegedly the best league in the world but more importantly doing it the "right" way, Grit, Graft, Honesty & Passion.

Well done to everyone connected to the club who's put us in this fantastic position.

Enjoy this, it's fairytale stuff

Yep, bunch of fairies..

Fully agree.

"Right" way has also got to include "and managing a budget."

It was said on stream I was watching this afternoon that Sean Dyche remembers how Watford went from performing team to administration very quickly - and he's learnt from this. I didn't know Sean had learnt about managing a budget the "hard" way.

As you say, in the middle of a golden period. Astonishing first half of season.

[JamesSherbourne]

Agree Paul. The Budget makes it an even more unbelievable achievement. I've been frustrated a bit when we are conservative in our bids but we are proving it can still be done. Would love to see a couple of new additions but these lads have put us here there is no reason they can't keep us here.

[IanMcL]

We're so good it's unbelievable!

[Imploding Turtle]

Remember though, according to their fans Middlesbrough and Brighton are better than Burnley.

Spot on, I think we've two excellent fullbacks who are doing a grand job. My only concern today, certainly in the 1st half was how ineffective the front two were. Better 2nd half, but for me Andre has to engage in the play a bit more. Does my head in, his waiting on the ball coming to him, his defensive game also needs to improve. But hell full marks to him for that 70 yard dash he made

[Claretsi]

Yep almost twice as many points as the bottom three which makes it sound even better. They all have to have as good a second half of the season as we have had and us visa versa as bad as their first half for us to be dragged back into the more of a relegation battle.

On another tact I always make the effort to watch individuals off the ball for periods during the game and I must say that Wardy was outstanding today, absolutely non stop up and down the left side and covering in the middle when required. One of our unsung heroes and the best left back we have had for some considerable time - another cog in the 26 points wheel

[Fretters]

We also have more points than Blackburn, having played five fewer games.

In a higher league.

There was a twonk on the LT last week who bigged Rovers up on the points argument. Blind, conveniently, to the fact that our opposition have players who cost more to buy than the clubs they play against!

[Cirrus_Minor]

Rejoice.

[Dazzler]

hallelujah!!!

Yes Saxo. Glad to no your save and well. After scabbing a draw with Huddersfield and a win with Newcastle now normal service resumed thought you might have gone back under your horse fiddling rock you came from or back to supporting Liverpool. UTC
