Michael Owen says Burnley were absolutely shocking! Not sure what game he was watching. I thought we played ok....we just don't have any outstanding class players....epitomised by the misfires of Wood, Vydra and Pieters.
It's Michael Owen. The fact he's still employed makes me think I have a chance.

He watched the same game as me, we were shocking.

we did ok under the circumstances, bit unlucky here and there, but overall not a bad performance.

Of the 92 teams in the English pyramid Burnley are bottom
Of the table for points earned in 2021 with 0.87 points a game.

We passed well. We attacked. We had excellent chances. We scored one.

Billion pound team versus a few quid.

Could have been worse after such a layoff.
Agreed-I was dreading the final score when I saw the two teams. So frustrating to miss those Chances that get you points or wins games. The inability to convert is likely to get us relegated sadly, because the effort is there.. Sadly I think Cornet could have starred tonight

And in the toughest league having spent the least and with the smallest population but as Sean says we'll take it on...if you look for the negative you'll find it very easily but its not how I see the town or the team, always at our best when we are up against it

Yes I had at the idea that he was with either BT or Sky but there again I don't/won't have satellite.

But as you can see from Vino's post it's neither.

I know it can't be easy living over there...they'll be full of it at the moment but stay strong, a marathon not a sprint and hopefully it will be all the sweeter come the seasons end 👍

First goal very poor decision from Charlie, had a 70/30 chance to make a tackle/block early in the move and hesitated, skipper had a serious word after goal went in.

He's not on sky. Thankfully. And I'm sure he was already on the prick list although maybe that's only the case for international week as he probably still pretends to be injured the rest of the time.

I don't think there's a group of supporters anywhere who can tolerate the ****.
