Re: Ashley Barnes - Legend
So pleased for him.
I've defended him on here but worried he was finished. Looked really up for it, today.

Re: Ashley Barnes - Legend
Really pleased for him. I thought after Blackpool he was not going to get his mojo back but recently he's been very good.
Struggled to get a stream here in Calgary but saw some choppy bits and pieces second half (oke up at 6.30 - it's half 7 now) and missed all the goals but bugger me what a great result and way to sign off before the dull cup.

You only needed to see the congratulations he was getting after the match, not only from those playing, but from all those not in the match day squad to see how well thought of he is.
I don’t think we will see too many more days like from Barnes but what a swan song. Thank you, Ashley.

Re: Ashley Barnes - Legend
Has any player in the last decade bought into the Burnley way more than Barnes? (obviously excluding Jay Rod)

Re: Ashley Barnes - Legend
Apologies, I've had a few, nerves and everything but I really mean it, he'll forever remain a claret legend. That performance today elevated him to a place that is reserved for players on the all time list. He's been a massive part of such a successful period and he goes and two punches the b@stards in the teeth in his twilight, when I thought he was down for the count. Stupid me. Proper Roy of the Rovers stuff. May he continue to be a rock behind the curtain, an obviously brilliant man to have around in this team of magic.

Re: Ashley Barnes - Legend
To be honest Ash needed the goal aganist Crawley just to get the weight off him .
Now when you look at the 2nd goal where he took his time no presure and you know the rest .

Re: Ashley Barnes - Legend
He's one of my all time favourite BFC players but this season he has been shite, when I seen the lineup I preyed he scored and got the send off he deserved.
Well he did so hats off Mr.Barnes leave as an hero u deserve it what a player what a man, WHAT A CLARETS LEGEND

He’d have been gutted not being involved, but he’ll be so pleased for his team mate

Re: Ashley Barnes - Legend
He was great today, and any Claret who bags a brace against Rovers will always live long in the memory.
Today was the day we needed our experienced players to step up and Ash duly obliged.
One of those who truly understands this intense rivalry and that showed in his passion when he scored.
No idea how much we'll see of Ash for the rest of the season, but that's some way to announce your resurgence.
Well done Ash.

I am a bit annoyed because I had him to score in the first half and he let the keeper tip it over!

"The thought of Barnes coming off the bench to score the winner , while a lovely sentiment, is as far fetched a scenario as you could come up with!"
So said Elizabeth on the Do we have Leaders thread!
About as wide of the mark as me picking Man City to beat Brentford in a last man standing competition yesterday.

Re: Ashley Barnes - Legend
He created a new definition of a "hat trick". 1 header, 1 shot, 1 b4sterd goalkeeper all hit the back of the net.

Re: Ashley Barnes - Legend
A member of the squad with a limited future at the club, not a first choice striker by any means, is given the chance to create a bit of mayhem and duly delivers.

AB is my second favourite Burnley player of all time.
I loved his celebration of his first goal by flooring that Amdram Blackburn Keeper. Just football magic, too late to make the 2022 England World Cup squad I suppose?.

Re: Ashley Barnes - Legend
Only one person needs to grow up
The games he got slated in, he was crap
Today he was good, doesn't suddenly mean the Games he was crap in, he suddenly became better
It's life, some games are good, others are poor, as you grow up you'll come to realise it more
