A point at the Amex takes us off the bottom

Burnley are off the bottom of the league for now, a point this evening from a 0-0 draw against Brighton & Hove Albion at the Amex Stadium lifting us a point clear of Sheffield United.

It’s a fourth consecutive game for the Clarets without a goal. We haven’t scored since the 3-1 defeat at Newcastle four weeks ago and can add this to the 0-0 draw at West Brom and the two home defeats, 1-0 against Spurs and 3-0 against Chelsea.

But at least a second clean sheet of the season and at least another point as we go into the latest international beak.

Embed from Getty ImagesAs was the case for the last game against Chelsea, there won’t be a report on Up the Clarets. Again we’ve taken up the choice given to us by our club and opted not to pay £14.95 to watch the game, instead we’ve made a donation to charity.
