Kids party man. Makes us look tin pot. Surprised he's still around when we seem to be sharpening up in other areas.

Alan - wield the axe please sir

Looks good

We'll be ok if / when add that killer. Will be us and Leeds.

Has been a revelation on the left recently and has made a very childish mistake today letting down everyone, including himself, that he needs to reflect on and learn from. Can’t help thinking those with the biggest overreactions are allowing the general team performance and resulting frustration at...

He let himself down, he let everyone down. It's really poor but far better players than him have done it. Up to him to learn, if he does it again that's a different story. Made no difference today, we were dog poo.

Now ask yourself, does Trafford slow the play down because he’s too dopey to think quickly, or is it because he’s been instructed to do so to draw the opposition press in the hope of creating an opening? If it’s the former I doubt he would have made it to this level. If it’s the latter then your cr...

Did well, been great all season. Why would anyone be swinging at JT?

‘Rotating’ 3 of the front 4 was the mistake today, for me. Let alone putting J-Rod in ahead of Foster.

If Hannibal, Laurent, and Fleming can do 30 mins, they need to start and get us ahead before being substituted.

That common tactic used by top coaches?

You'd crucify him if we played the same XI and then rocked up to Deadwood looking leggy.

I don't think some fans realise how intense and demanding the modern game is for players. They cannot be flogged every 3 days or so.

On track, decent return

Let'sChaseTheDragon

Not to get too carried away.....but teams are struggling to get near us now. We look like a bigger boxer with a longer jab. Looks repeatable, bodes well when we get creative options back / if we sign that killer up front.

Let'sChaseTheDragon

Solid as. Add that forward and we're on our way

Let'sChaseTheDragon

We have spent more time in this league than any other in our history. There is no natural level. Its nonsense. When we got to The Championship under Stan, people thought that was above our level. Just because we had recently been in the doldrums. And because there were the likes of Forest, Sheffiel...

Some great suggestions- inspired to see Cornwall as an adult, when back in England. Top 5 for me:
Torres del Paine, Chilean Patagonia.
Cusco, Peru.
Rio, Brazil
Queenstown, New Zealand.
Pacific North West, USA.

Definitely appears biased. It's not a straightforward call for Southgate. Pope has been brilliant for us but his weakness with his feet has to be taken into account by Southgate. To be fair he has tried to assemble his squad based on form and it's right that Pope is in it. As Taio says. Very biased.

Done, love the vids.

Thanks for posting the link. The "sweat on the shirt" and "team will give everything" comments resonate. It's hard to think of a game where a Sir Sean team haven't given everything and been hard to beat- and at a minimum looked bloody organized and committed. Comparing that to other teams I've seen,...

It is as much about mental fatigue and game preparation as anything - travelling seriously messes up your ability to rest and refresh (I have done a lot of that for work it is the worst part of the job). The level of concentration to play at these high levels is immense and our game plan is so depe...

Made me laugh!

Really good player, as others have said. Our squad depth kept the machine rolling, this season.

Let'sChaseTheDragon

Vital to the squad. Chucking Wood, Barnes and Vokes up top when we need a goal seems to be a good tactic. It worked vs WHU and if there were another 10 minutes we would’ve won that game. A vital tactic and reliable player. Need to keep him Agree- caused mayhem. Very good player- we need a squad and...

Dyche getting results and bringing home the bacon is making the owners look better, would we still be delighted if we were currently bottom of the league having made profit in the summer transfer window? It's hard to say but I don't think it would've gone down well. Let's not forget Sir Sean being ...

Excellent. Well run is a given with BFC in 2018. Well done to all. My only quibble is given these figures how it can be justified serving fans sub standard produce (e.g. the water of a brand I have never heard of in wafer thin bottles) at ridiculous prices. So, we are superbly well run, the next st...

Get rid of him. Its only the 4th Burnley player to play under him. He is completely biased, doesn't spend any time watching little clubs and definitely won't start any of them! :roll: Know the point you're making, and totally agree. No complaints from me- seems open minded, no evidence of big club ...

Hard as nails, rocket shot, lightning instincts in the box, titanium plated elbows, relatable, committed, great character, selfless, capable of comedy moments, high propensity to improve.

Impossible not to like this guy and this news.

Excellent debut, impressed with both sides of his game

What a solid player he is. No nonsense but pretty good going forwards also. Hes strong aerially and on the deck and takes no nonsesne. His game management is great too.

The requirement is 10% and we've given them more than that. If you want to give them more tickets to get in as big a crowd as possible then why stop at the full cricket field end, why not give them the Bob Lord as well if they can fill it? Not for me, we've given them what they are entitled to and ...

Very impressed- looked confident, tidy and pulled off a couple of stunning saves. Like others have said, Billy Mercer obviously doing a fine job. We're the epitome of a well run club.

I think there is a complete misconception amongst Burnley fans over how many goals a striker should score for Burnley at this level. This isn't the football league with 8 games more, poorer defenders and we're a stronger team. If Gray got 15 goals a season two years on the spin he would be a £50 mi...

You need to stop chasing that dragon, it's hindering your ability to see a humorous comment. It's just a line from a song that I enjoy, no tripping here.

Easy, obvious dig at the guy who fired us up and has helped keep us up. When he masters that skill, unlikely he'll be at Burnley for too much longer.

Just watched that interview (on Clarets Player, for those that are wondering).

Twenty times the player? So he's going to win 20 Champions League medals? Get 760 England caps? Play in 40 international tournaments for England?
