No match thread from me today.

[FCBurnley]

Cornet missed an open goal at Norwich and again today. Hope it doesn’t cost us. West Ham will throw everything at us this half. Have a bad feeling about the pen miss

[Iloveyoubrady]

So unfortunate about the pen. Confidence is clearly low after Norwich miss and that would have helped but now it will be even worse…

[FCBurnley]

Gave West Ham a big lift

[Elizabeth]

I think we all feel bad but we are still 1-0 up

[SouthamptonClaret]

Cornet grabbed the ball off Jay, can't be doing that and not scoring. He did so well in the build up to winning the penalty too

[Iloveyoubrady]

22 in a row, wow. We were due a miss, shame it was Maxwel after his great run, touch and miss vs Norwich

[Pearcey]

Cornet missed an open goal at Norwich and again today. Hope it doesn’t cost us. West Ham will throw everything at us this half. Have a bad feeling about the pen miss

With the luck we’ve had this season I’d agree with you. Hopefully our luck is about to change.

[DCWat]

Looked from the replays shown at HT that there was no contact on Cornet for the penalty.

[scouseclaret]

Scored 22 in a row apparently.

Stats going back to 1973…

[Middle-agedClaret]

Looked from the replays shown at HT that there was no contact on Cornet for the penalty.

[Roosterbooster]

He's a luxury player... missed two golden opportunities in the last two games.

But also won us 6 points alone with his goals

25% of points
28% of goals
(Before today)

What if Jay had refused to give him the ball, and then missed himself?

[clive40golf]

It’s funny how some peoples memories desert them when they want to. Have we forgotten the performances :- Brighton home and away Newcastle h Leeds h Everton h&a Leicester Southampton Brentford h palace h

[Middle-agedClaret]

What was Dwight doing there?

[wilks_bfc]

Dwight with a cracking ball from the corner

Unfortunately it was to Bowen who was in the center circle

[gawthorpe_view]

Jeeez Dwight.

[Murger]

Wtf is McNeil playing at?

[Silkyskills1]

Surely there is a designated penalty taker. Must be written in that book that subs have to read and digest before coming on.

[RVclaret]

It’s pretty harsh calling Cornet a luxury player. He’s a serious threat on the wing with his movement. Did well to win the penalty (no other player is ever winning that pen). Then look at all the points he’s won for us as noted above.

[joey13]

Let’s hope the new manager works with McNeil on his right foot

[ElectroClaret]

Surely there is a designated penalty taker.

Exactly what I was thinking.

[DCWat]

Dwight’s not got his passing boots on, so far in this half.

[Silkyskills1]

Difficult for Mee to encourage it.

[wilks_bfc]

Surely there is a designated penalty taker. Must be written in that book that subs have to read and digest before coming on.

We’ve haven't had a single designated penalty taker in a while

Vokes Ings
Vokes Gray
Wood Barnes

They had a “system” that decided on the taker

[Roosterbooster]

Surely there is a designated penalty taker. Must be written in that book that subs have to read and digest before coming on.

I mentioned this a while back and CT says there wasn't one under Dyche. Apparently even Wood wasn't the designated taker

[Taffy on the wing]

Johnson had stepped into the box, shouldn’t it have been retaken?

That rule is just for the top 4!

[Buxtonclaret]

Come on Burnley.
We can do this.

[Middle-agedClaret]

That rule is just for the top 4!

Jay was also in the box. Would you have wanted the penalty retaken for that incursion if Max had scored?

[Roosterbooster]

It’s pretty harsh calling Cornet a luxury player. He’s a serious threat on the wing with his movement. Did well to win the penalty (no other player is ever winning that pen). Then look at all the points he’s won for us as noted above.

I reckon Vydra or Dwight, or even Lennon could possibly win that pen. But I agree, he's been too vital to goals and points this season to be considered a luxury. Directly contributed to 8 of our 25 goals in 20 games before today (32%)

[ElectroClaret]

Coming under pressure now, come on lads.

[claptrappers_union]

Connor Roberts will come on for Matt Lowton

[burnleymik]

Great work Jayrod in defence

[Buxtonclaret]

Phew

[Murger]

Strange sub.

[DCWat]

Connor Roberts will come on for Matt Lowton

Don’t think that’s what we need, defensively.

[ElectroClaret]

Chance for Jrod, good move.

[gawthorpe_view]

Strange sub.

Very.

[wilks_bfc]

Unlucky Jay

Again creating chances by playing football

[SussexDon1inIreland]

Good move Jay goes close

[Buxtonclaret]

Jay chance..

[claptrappers_union]

Benrahma coming on for Vlasic

[wilks_bfc]

And that wasn’t a foul from jay either

[burnleymik]

We are under pressure here. Think I would prefer we stuck with Lowts in this position. If we were chasing the game then yeah, Roberts.

[Burnley Ace]

Lot of WH pressure at the moment!!

[joey13]

Unlucky Jay

Again creating chances by playing football

Seemed to hit it with his heel

[ClaretMat]

They aren't getting space down our right because of our full back. McNeil isn't as comfortable there defensively as on the left and hispositioning us out. I'd have brought Lennon on for either Dwight or Cornet.
Not sure bringing Roberts on will achieve anything.

[SussexDon1inIreland]

Good block Charlie

[ElectroClaret]

Rice telling Wout to go away in short jerking movements.

[ian]

Pope's dominance in the box these days is literally non-existant

[SussexDon1inIreland]

Come on Burnley
