This is really refreshing to see, and somewhat contradicts the narrative around pub culture, venues closing and such like. Granted it's undeniable pubs in and around Burnley have closed down. The venues showcased in his video however do show there's still a good appetite for pubs and a decent amount...

Cups should never be a distraction, and this one isn't either. Anyone remember our cup run under Coyle? They lift the fans, create excitement, breed a winning mentality, get some more cash in the coffers. It should be taken seriously and give our first team players playing time with each other. The...

That first attempt from Cardiff that just went past the right hand post in the first few minutes. 20 yards out or so. Edwards was tracking him and he was utterly pathetic. Put in not even a half arsed challenge and then literally stopped running. Cardiff forward then got his shot away. Spineless

Dubravka 9* - Superb Walker 8 - so glad we’ve got him. His all round game was class, barring a couple of misplaced passes. Experience will be invaluable. Laurent 8 Ekdal 8 Esteve 9 - Some player. Hartman 8 Cullen 9 - I watched him closely second half. I don’t think he misplaced one pass. Does so muc...

Can’t see Edwards starting too many PL games. Too much of a luxury player and the contrast between him and Anthony (and to a lesser extent a winger like JBL) is chalk and cheese. Just doesn’t do enough of the gritty defensive stuff, and we just can’t be in a position to be carrying any players.

TommyPicks

Dubravka 7 Bruun-Larsen 6 Walker 8 Ekdal 9 Esteve 8 Hartman 8 Cullen 9* - was going to give Ekdal MOTM until that sublime pass for Anthony’s goal. Lesley 7 Hannibal 7 Anthony 9 Foster 8 Sonne 6 Laurent 7 That was a thoroughly enjoyable display, and a game in truth we controlled for the vast majority...

Nothing.

It's only a flow plan. Nobody is going to be checking or stopping people

People will just end up doing that then. Especially after a few weeks when folk cotton on to it.

Or why don't we just claim to be away fans and just go down it with no colours on?

This idea also came to my mind. I don’t know if I’m being too simplistic but what’s to stop you walking down the side of the cricket club if you’ve no colours on?

TommyPicks

We don’t half seem to get plagued with constant injuries to several key players at any given time. It’s definitely got worse in the last 2-3 years.

Can’t recall it ever being as bad in the Dyche era.

TommyPicks

The 'let's hear it for BURNLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!" thing is horrendous. Like nails down a chalkboard. Makes us look very tin pot. It's like he's talking to a stadium full of 8 year olds..

TommyPicks

Squeaky Bum-rah time?

TommyPicks

In what sense? the fact that we bowl well and win the game doesn't change the fact that a lot of our batters got out in a very poor manner yesterday. If you're 3-0 down at half time due to 3 goalkeeping howlers, but win the game 4-3 it doesn't alter the fact that your keeper has had a nightmare. If...

Washington Sundar goes for 0

Overall verdict from people who have been to the Heaton Park gigs so far?

TommyPicks

Archer! So good to see him back

TommyPicks

Oasis, schmoasis. Sick of it all now tbh. Two brothers, one slightly less of a dick than the other, play guitar and maracas. Hardly the Stones or the Beatles are they? (Even tho they clearly wannabe - basically a Beatles tribute as it is) Yet it’s absolutely everywhere - can’t get away from it. The...

Got tickets for Heaton Park. Really looking forward to it, just hoping I can avoid enough of the stone island, beaked up roids heads who'll inevitably be the crowd.

TommyPicks

Can't really ask for better than that, going into lunch. If at least one of the openers can convert and get 100 + the chase is on. Praying weather doesn't spoil it.

TommyPicks

Good recovery given the context of India being 430-3 at one point.

Bumrah in these conditions though could be wild.

TommyPicks

India going well since lunch. Jaiswal and Gill starting to look fairly set now. Boundaries incoming.

TommyPicks

What injury did Beyer suffer? I know he was out for a period, and the VK brought him back too soon. Was it the same injury recurring, or something different?

TommyPicks

We’ve been blessed with some truly great centre backs over the last 10-15 years, but Esteve has so much potential. I think what stands him out against some of his former peers is his pace. Even when a forward has a yard or two on him, his ability to recover is really impressive. Looking forward to s...

Yes absolutely, just clean up after it. And if taking it inside make sure it's well behaved

No dogs on the pitch

Perfect, thanks!

TommyPicks

Does anyone know if dogs are allowed up at Lowerhouse CC? Hoping to attend the charity match on Friday.

TommyPicks

That tonight has lead me to think we’ll end up having to settle for the play offs. 15 draws this season, and every time we seem to get in a position to capitalise and nudge into the top 2, we seem to be falling short. With CJ possibly out for 3 games, and the potential for injuries (Foster and Estev...

Checked mine and I'm on DD. If I manually renew this online do I have to pay the £500 odd quid up front or does it just keep the DD rolling for the new season?

Trafford 7
Roberts 7
Humphries 7
Esteve 9*
CJ 8
Cullen 6
Laurent 6
Anthony 7
Foster 4
Fleming 5
Brownhill 5

The 0-0 against Luton in the Cotterill season was worse.

Tonight was poor though, admittedly. To not lay a glove on them all game was disappointing.

JJ Watt was sporting the 1980 yellow away Umbro shirt on an interview the other day. Love to see that badge brought back.

My favourite badge too.

TommyPicks

There’s rumours doing the rounds on social media that the club are looking to rebrand the club badge. I don’t know how to upload a picture, but the letter ‘B’ badge which is on those baseball caps appears to be etched into the grass near the dugouts at the Turf….

Make of that what you will.

I've done 8 Wainwrights, so loads more to do! Great fun though. I'd recommend a book called 'The Lake District 214 Peak Challenge' it's essentially a log book and has all 214 peaks in there ready for you to add notes about the walk you have done. It's a great way to tick them off, and add some notes...

The omens were not good from the very start. It seemed very clear Tresor needed a lot of convincing to come. Exactly, why spunk £18m euros on him? His notable contributions in his entire loan period could be summed up by those tackles he shirked out of in the Prem games. Couple that with him clearl...

TommyPicks

He’s a bad egg - it happens - but criminal mismanagement? I think he's our most expensive signing ever, played a handful of times and pulled up no trees when he has played. For a club our size saddled with debt, don't you think the whole process, from initial signing to obligation to buy, should ha...

TommyPicks

Absolute joke. The mismanagement of this is criminal. Obligation to buy nonsense has come back to bite us. What a complete mess. How much did we pay for this joker again?

TommyPicks

A lot of seeded players have gone out early already! Gary Anderson another on that list

TommyPicks

Missed last night due to a stinking cold I’ve picked up, and the Boro game because I was at a gig. I have generally struggled for motivation this season and I’m increasingly finding it disinteresting. Think the empty seats issue is a few reasons: - The brand of football is poor. These attritional, p...

TommyPicks

No, but I'd have Scott Airfield back.

TommyPicks

This game has 0-0 written all over it. We can't score for toffee, and West Brom have drawn 5 of their last 6, 3 of which were 0-0 scorelines. I would broadly agree with the OP's Team. Think we need to try something different than the current 3 in midfield as it just isn't working. 0-0 with SkyBet cu...

Watched both the Radio 2 and Radio 6 sessions this morning, really excellent stuff. Think the Radio 6 set just edged it for me. They played more of their reflective 'darker' songs, with the Radio 2 session having more of the pop hits. Thought the overall sound and quality of the songs came across be...

Seriously did anyone ever really rate SOTSOG?? more than a mid phase mediocre album ? There’s good moments on it. Go let it out, where did it all go wrong, f*ckin in the bushes etc. Gas panic in particular is a hugely underrated song, and some of the live versions of it are excellent. Oasis at thei...

It’s been an awful service for years, and will continue to be. ALK have been here long enough now to implement changes, if they viewed it as any sort of priority, but they clearly don’t. Still, if you’re disgruntled at least you can go into the newly refurbished hospitality lounges in the JH and Jim...

He seemed to be encouraging Parker to do the fist bump at the end with the fans! Fair play to Parker if he has managed to convince him to stick around. Genuinely wasn’t expecting him to ever play for Burnley again.

First game, the hosts battered our local "Rivals" Decent game with Hungary and Switzerland. Spain played well, with a 16 year old kid having a fantastic game.

Craig Bellamy has “major support” inside Burnley to be their next manager.

The way Pace has been talking about Kompany since he arrived, he'll probably kiss him goodbye on the way out.

TommyPicks

In the highly unlikely event the Bayern deal does collapse, I can't see him sticking around. His agent has clearly been pimping him out, another club will eventually come in and he'll go. Be this Brentford, Brighton etc he clearly wants another opportunity and the bridges will be too far burnt for h...

Honestly this play the right way, possession based Pep Guardiola-love in football is going too far. For the majority of this season we’ve been utter dross. No football fan, chairman, board member enjoys their team getting slapped about most weeks. As others have said contrast Dyche’s reputation to K...

Scott Arfield’s transfer from Huddersfield is one I think most Burnley fans would admit they were a bit underwhelmed with at the time.

Glad to say how wrong we all were.
