Post by Carwin261 » Wed Apr 12, 2023 7:54 pm

If my maths is correct ,and Sheff Utd win their next 3 ,and we draw ours ,we could then be champions at Deadwood,would it be worth the wait?

We won't draw our next 3, so it's a moot point anyway

Let's just get the title won, then we can really enjoy the last few games of what in years to come will be looked back upon as an unforgettable season for BFC.

Even if it meant ditching Rovers out of the playoffs?

Get it done asap

Then we go to Ewood with absolutely zero pressure, and they will have loads and loads and loads, and their fan base won't let them try to contain us, and they will attack, and they don't defend well and they certainly don't do transition at all well (based on Huddersfield)

We want to be champions when we go there, and we want to be singing that from pre match all the way through to the end, whatever the result

I don’t really care that much about Rovers and thanks to their miserable ticket allocation it wouldn’t be much of a celebration. Much rather we did it in front of more of our fans. Besides we want six wins from six for the record. And considering the game at Ewood is probably the hardest we’ve got left I’d rather have the Championship in the bag and be going for the record than risking them putting off our celebrations. They haven’t been in the top six all season for nothing. Just because we turned them over big time at the Turf don’t assume it’s going to happen again, ask Sheff Utd.

Think is I think they have been in the top all season for nothing and we will ensure that.

I hate negative threads like this. We are about to play 4 bottom teams. No reason to believe our team can’t win all 4. At the moment, 108 points is possible. 106 achievable. Have some faith!

There's one team gonna keep Rovers out of the playoffs and they play in blue and white halves.

Win the League, rock up there with the title already in our pocket... and if/when we beat them they'll know we've done it just as an afterthought.

What is wrong with people? I mean, some would rather put us into a crap run of form, not even attempt to go for the record points haul and risk Sheffield U overtaking us purely for a chance to win the title at Ewood. Imagine going into that in poor form, losing it and losing the title? What a terrible end to a great season.

Some of our fans need to give their heads a wobble, because there are a few thinking like this. :roll:

I support Burnley and want to see us win every game we play, I have little interest in what is going on at Bristol, Blackburn, Birmingham, Boro or Bangor on Dee!

I think it would be massively unfair on the scrubbers at Ewood for us to go there with the chance of winning the league. In the lead up to the details of our allocation, their manager, players and fans have shown how cowardly they are by begging the club to give us the minimum required.

Their players can still hear the "your f***ing s**t" chant in their ears as they left the pitch, their fans still cry about how they hardly touched the ball and their manager found out the hard way just how far out of his depth he was against Kompany. To ask their 8000 non boycotting fans to turn up and us clinch the title in front of them is simply too much.

Lets win the the next 3, then let their manager praise us in he interviews leading up to the game, their players give us a guard of honour and then humiliate their fans all the match as we hopefully knock them out the play off race.

Wasn’t supposed to be a negative thread ,it was just to see how important it was for our fans to rub Bastards noses a lit bit more into the dirt before we go our separate ways.

Title first, then lets see if we can get to 100 points, then lets see if we can break the record

Even if we don't break the record, this is a team that will be remembered in a way that SD "23, 23 undefeated" team hasn't been by pundits and commentators

Well that's much more likely than us drawing our next 3.

We go into every game attempting to win and let's maintain that mentality as it's a great habit to have.

If in the process we dent Rovers play-off hopes that will just be an added bonus.

Let's get as many points as possible and hopefully break the record.

That said, if I could choose any scenario it would be very nice to win the league in front of our own crowd at the Turf against QPR rather than in one of the next two away games, then go to Ewood as champions.

The stuff of dreams.
