Re: Benalmadena bar for sunday

Just to confirm Burnley game will on at Goodies Bar in Ibensa Square opposite Bonanza square. I dont think there will be half time sandwichee because the couple who run Benalmadena Clarets are back in the UK for a week.. I hope to be there myself though got a heavy cold at moment.

Re: Josh Laurent

He couldn't get into our Championship team most games and now he's playing against City and Liverpool in thr PL. This is one of the reasons we will struggle this season. He is simply not good enough for the PL...he thinks and plays far too slowly and ponderously for this division.

One of the worst first half performances I've seen from a Burnley team in years. Lazy, no effort , no cohesion, basically no idea. What the f.ck did Parker say to them before the game?
