Whoford? versus Mighty Clarets

So Westwood on at half time to help shore up midfield?

KRBFC · Post by **KRBFC** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 3:54 pm

Another disappointing away performance not helped by the red card. I don't know why Arfield is playing central midfield when Westwood is on the bench same with Barnes wide with Brady on the bench, Oh well, there's always next time...

Are bare feet and toes a euphemism for something else?

It's only 1 game, positives are Bournemouth and Palace are shipping goals for fun. Even a win for Sunderland leave both them and Palace 10 points behind us, if Hull win they'll still be 9 behind.
Leicester and falling like a stone and Boro... we'll they are just Boro

Never understood anyone who thought we were safe. I said a week or two ago, I'd snap your hand off for 17th. We're entering silly season, there'll be all sorts of weird results here on in.
We're more than good enough to get the 11 points or so we need though.

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 3:56 pm

we will stay 9 points clear of the relegation places if Hull and Sunderland win

minnieclaret · Post by **minnieclaret** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 3:56 pm

IMO. Westwood and Brady on for Arfield and Gray.
Barnes up front alone cos he holds the ball up better than Andre but he will need runners supporting him.

Think we will do well to keep this at 2 nil.

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 3:58 pm

do we try and get back into this or go for damage control

No, I use Marmite around 'something else' it creates a deeper more vigorous lick..

DCWat · Post by **DCWat** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 3:58 pm

Hopefully this gives everyone the wake up call that was needed. We are not safe until we can't be caught.

Chelsea will obviously be mighty difficult to get anything from and considering Hull's upturn in form and our away record, anything from that game will be a big ask.

Not meaning to sound negative here, more in hope that we don't get ahead of ourselves! Let's treat every game as a must win. There has been too much cockiness on here for my liking.

NickBFC · Post by **NickBFC** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 3:59 pm

Massively disappointing today so far. Red card is inexcusable, but I also think the set up was slightly questionable. We can't keep writing off away games. Having said that, absolutely no need to panic at this stage!

Get a goal back early and all to play for. Tough ask now though.

Easy to understand. Belief and optimism.

Still guilty I'm afraid!

Quickenthetempo · Post by **Quickenthetempo** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 4:00 pm

Everything that frustrates me with Burnley is on show today.

We don't hold the ball up, we can't cross a road at the moment and not picking passes. Just hitting spaces.

I know it's not helping having a man down but people are not doing their jobs against their man they would have to do at 11 Vs 11.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 4:00 pm

I'd swap Gray for Vokes and try and get us further up the pitch, games done for me

IndigoLake · Post by **IndigoLake** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 4:01 pm

Players back out. Incredibly no changes. Wow.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 4:02 pm

what I find weird is we manage to stop crosses when we play at home, away we don't seem to get within 10 yards of the lad putting the cross in, both goals where awful from our point of view

Prepare yourselves for the greatest 45 minutes in BFC history. We'll be talking about this moment for years to come.

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 4:03 pm

I am more disappointed with the defending on both goals (not from set pieces) over the sending off as Hendrick did not mean to get sent off

Longsidebovril · Post by **Longsidebovril** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 4:03 pm

If BFS gets the sack, at least he can still say he hasn't been relegated.

IndigoLake · Post by **IndigoLake** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 4:03 pm

I see Grosicki is playing for Hull.

The 'how **** must you be, we're winning away' chant needs a bloody good airing if we ever manage to score first in an away game.

halfmanhalfbiscuit · Post by **halfmanhalfbiscuit** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 4:04 pm

Early goal in the second half and on we go. Come on Burnley.

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 4:04 pm

"Much worse" - Didn't say they couldn't be any worse.
Not sure how Sunderland winning is much better than palace winning, stoke are totally irrelevant but I'll give you Bournemouth.
Plus I drank far too much red wine last night so everythings just a bit worse. Leave me alone

It's clear at home that under Dyche's instructions our fullbacks are narrow inviting crosses. Unsurprisingly that's going to be more profound with 10 men.

Oh FFS now Gray has an "issue" (Apparently from the commenters on the stream)

Here's hoping that Liverpool can at least get back into the game versus Hull.

Gray keeps holding his back

IndigoLake · Post by **IndigoLake** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 4:09 pm

I don't understand why Dyche didn't make changes in this case. What in earth did he see from that first half that suggested the same team should continue?

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 4:09 pm

vokes for Gray for me, he's having an off day and contributing zero

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 4:09 pm

Taio, what on earth is difficult to grasp or contradictory about saying I don't think we're safe, and we're good enough to stay up? Neither are definitive statements.
Are you simple?

Find this kind of post really odd. "More in hope that we don't get ahead of ourselves!" Who, the fans or Sd and the team?

Do you honestly believe that the fans who believe SD and the team are good enough to stay up will have a negative effect on results/success?

IndigoLake · Post by **IndigoLake** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 4:09 pm

Tell you what, Grosicki looks lost in the Hull Liverpool game. Don't see how he would have fit our team as he looks vulnerable defensively.

MACCA · Post by **MACCA** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 4:10 pm

Gray fails to control 10 yard ball through when through on goal, sums up our day right there.

Giftonsnoidea · Post by **Giftonsnoidea** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 4:10 pm

Painfully slow to change things yet again, were terrible away from home, clueless, hope Hendrick gets a fine he's killed us this game..

Chester Perry · Post by **Chester Perry** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 4:10 pm

Gray was moving well enough there though
