MIGHTY CLARETS versus George Boyd

[jrgbfc]

Just need to avoid drawing City away again!

Wood and JBG injured. Top class. Could’ve just started Koiki and Vydra, but no

And then people would have moaned SD wasn't taking the cup seriously!

[jrgbfc]

Did Wood walk off OK or was he struggling?

A bit slow, but didn't look anything serious on the surface of it, but it's hard to tell really.

LOL. He can't win here can he?

I am glad he went with a strongish line-up, the team needed the confidence booster and it was good for the fans too.

[jrgbfc]

Club just put something on Twitter saying he was withdrawn as a precaution.

[ElectroClaret]

SD on r/Lancs..."JBG injured, Wood withdrawn more as a precaution."

[FactualFrank]

JBG will be back on the grass in a couple of weeks.

[SGr]

And then people would have moaned SD wasn't taking the cup seriously!

Oh I agree they would. And I’d disagree with them, like I said pre-match. My view is it wasn’t worth risking those players when we’re facing a genuine scrap in the second half of the season. JBG especially.

[IanMcL]

They all needed to be part of a win.

[jrgbfc]

Brady injured? Perfect chance for him to get some game time today.

We wanted to win.

[FCBurnley]

If JBG is injured again and will miss a number of games then all the more reason to bring in some new blood. Sounds like Lennon did well but remember the opposition

[Claretforever]

I think Lennon always does quite well when played in a more advanced role, like today. When he’s asked to only play against the top sides as a double right back then he’s purely used as a fast cover with his pace. He offers no threat going forwards like he did at Everton or Spurs.

[tiger76]

Good heavens we win a game that contains 6 goals and still people find something to moan about,yes we got an injury to JBG,but he could just as easily got injured next week at Chelsea,sadly he seems to made of china and he can't manage to get a run of games to get up to match fitness,that's probably one of the factors in Sean playing him today,to get some minutes into his legs,unfortunately it didn't work as intended,but until he plays the management/physios won't always know how his body will react.

Neil Hart, (new CE) sat next to an asian fella behind Posh dugout, cue rumour mill !

Our window-cleaner's brother in law's cousin's girlfriend's Uncle has a box, and he heard that it was Crown Prince Majid of the Emirate of Fujairah, one of the seven Emirates that make up the UAE. He, and his entourage of 30 took an entire floor of the new hotel at Crow-wood last night.
Apparently, the lady who does Mrs Clarets4me's nails has a client who's polish plumber's sister is a junior trainee at KPMG in Manchester, and they've been appointed to act on the Prince's behalf, and are currently engaged in the necessary " due diligence " work.

[IanMcL]

Always need due diligence to buy a hotel.
