Burnley stopped their opponents from registering a shot on target for the first time in their 207 Premier League games.

[Steve1956]

Three points is all that mattered today the performance was secondary
WELL PLAYED LADS .

It doesn’t have to be pretty to be enjoyable, this was attritional football where two teams cancelled each other out on a miserable day with nit picky ref. I’ll take the win every day and I’ll be back for the next one.

[Burnley1989]

Yes we won...1-0 .

Wow, a wins a win but that was crap

[Burnley1989]

Amazes me that all people care about is winning regardless of weather what they are watching is any good. Each to their own, I’m not arguing with anyone

[FactualFrank]

To be fair, I think today was a game when the points mattered above anything else. We're past halfway (reckon 37-38 will be enough), but after the previous 3 games we needed 3 points desperately.

[burnleymik]

It wasn't lovely football, but second half I thought we did okay. The ref didn't help things with constantly stopping play for niggly stuff and Newcastle were on the floor far too often.

I genuinely don;t think it was as bad as some folks are making out, defensively we were very good and we had a couple of lovely moves.

[MACCA]

Shocking game, you could tell they had 7 possible first teamers out.

Thank goodness we managed to scrape the win.

Conditions didnt help, but I cant have watched too many games on the turf that void of any quality

[wilks_bfc]

The weather, the ref & Newcastle’s “tactics” didn’t make for conducive football but today’s game was one that we needed to win after losing the last 3 in the way we did, in order to get back on track.

[Steve1956]

Every single time I go on the Turf I enjoy it win,lose,draw,bad game,think it's called supporting your club.

[thelaughingclaret]

Play not so well but win and stay in the premier league or play attractive fancy football but lose every game and get relegated.
I know which one I’d take! I enjoy watching us win a lot more then I enjoy watching us lose. How we play doesn’t matter. You don’t get points for playing fancy stuff you get points by scoring more the opposition. Simple.

[ElectroClaret]

The points were all-important today. We secured them
and that's the vital bit.

[Aclaret]

Sounds like some would rather see us play well but lose !

[Burnley1989]

Every single time I go on the Turf I enjoy it win,lose,draw,bad game,think it's called supporting your club.

I like you Steve and can only wish I was as upbeat as you! If you get in your car after a horrible defeat with a smile on your face you’re a rare breed

Well you seem to be of a sunny disposition.

[Yeovil1951]

Thank God we won today, That means we have taken 4 points from the 11 teams above us this season .Yet the 8 teams below us have taken from just the "Big 6" Brighton, Bournmouth, West Ham, 6 points .Everton, Norwich, 4 points. Southampton ,Watford,2 points. and Aston Villa 1 point.

[Burnley1989]

Yes you are !

How’s that?

[Blackrod]

I didn’t think the game was half as bad today as some are making out.At least we competed and it was a fair competition. Defending for 90 mins against Man City and offering zero threat is not entertaining.
