Imagine watching that and thinking it's OK. 8 points from 21 this season. Dreadful.

to think we have blown over 80 million on players in the last few years that was unacceptable - im afraid a change is required

Awful game of football from the home side, only 1 side looked capable of passing the ball and wanting to actually play.

What have we become?
1 game yeah fair enough, but it's 4 in the last 5, and the Bournemouth game wasn't the best either other than scoring 4 from our 5 attempts.

Becoming a chore watching us, even when we are winning/drawing.

We just got outplayed at home for 98 minutes off Huddersfield...

Can't even see the plan other than pump it up and hope for to the best.

We have international players aplenty. Its the manager eeking every last bit of creativity out of the side. Playing percentages instead of allowing players to take the odd risk...give them a little freedom.

Find out what's going on with Defour and when he's expected back :) Hopefully the 2 weeks we now have, is enough for him to sort things out and be back ready for Man City and beyond.

If it's going to be until Christmas we'll be in the bottom 3.

There are no excuses for that today. We deserved nothing. A real no show from nearly the entire team. It was Cotterball at it's very very best. I don't know how it's come to this.

Forget the results, just look at passing accuracy stats. I believe we set a record low in the PL last week.
The basics are not good enough, what do they practice all week?

Very poor today. Seem to be lacking confidence, can’t string more than two passes together and keep resorting to high balls to Vokes. Good job Huddersfield were hopeless up front otherwise we would have been on the end of a pasting today.

I go on other boards and defend Burnley when other fans say similar things, how can we draw with THEM ? We must be **** to lose to THEM. Etc etc all the same. It’s no good thinking that we are entitled to win or play nice . Hudders deseevd a point , fair play to them .
Watford thump us, we thump Bournemouth and Bournemouth thump Watford . Work that one out . It’s football. Ups and downs, sadness and joy. The highs would not be so much fun if we didn’t feel the lows .
I support anyones right to moan, god knows it’s justified but let’s bounce back .
Her can we find a joey Barton type in January ?

So you're suggesting that anyone unhappy with our level of performance should go to Ewood? How very original.

I would suggest anyone happy to watch dross could save a few quid and go down to there nearest wreck. We are well below our OWN standards. It needs sorting. Pretty much what I was expecting both from the performance and tge result. If we can't go at a club on a run like Huddersfield and on the back of a smash and grab at Cardiff one has to ask when can we expect Burnley to put on a show for those paying week in week out?

We really need to stop pretending everything is rosey. It's a long time since it could be put to bed as a hiccup

Absolute rubbish.

Whilst not advocating any booing whilst the game is in progress I think paying fans at the ground are well within their rights to show their displeasure at the matches end.

Yes, they are there to support the team, but it is a two way street and if the fans feel the team have not performed as well as they could have then I think they are entitled to boo. What would you rather; that they write a stiff letter of complaint to the management?
