Great signing that, really happy to see him back.

I think its easier to assume the French ATC are always on strike unless told otherwise. You gotta admire the French for the shear audacity to stike at almost any given time in any organisation. I love the story of the French riot police who, during a strike they were residing over, we caught drinkin...

Surprised to see Primark listed above. Still in Europe and operate in Ireland as Penneys.

Hello fellow Clarets, Yes, how long's a piece of string. It all depends on how many people you're booking for and their ages etc. The ecc family, my beloved and I and our two sons, visited Amsterdam a month back.

Do you have a link? Getting in cold water or exposing your body to very cold temperatures ( the sea / a plunge pool / ice bath / whatever ) causes blood vessels to constrict in a process called vasoconstriction. That's proven medical science. When people say getting into cold water "takes your brea...

West Brom for me. I've been a number of times but this year is as close I've got to a win. I remember Koumas and Ellington ripping us apart in the mid noughties. I've seen at least a couple of hammerings down there. I was at that game, Nov 2006. My one and only trip to the Hawthorns. Rushing off fr...

As per title, what ground have you visited as a Burnley fan where something just never goes right and you have bad memories? Mine is Vicarage Road. Think I've seen us win there once in 5 visits. Some frustrating memories - the infamous quarter final (less said about that the better). And going there...

I'm genuinely baffled at the point of resurrecting a thread which had mainly fair and representation descriptions (and of course some completely loony ones) in January on the back of a lot of inconsistent and hard to watch games.

At what point do you have to admit that the draws are just part of a teams normal return across a seasons worth of fixtures? They weren't 1-1 or 2-2 draws, some of them were very poor 0-0 draws against very poor sides earlier in the season where we had massive amounts of possession and no clinical ...

The division isn't awash with goals this season..... for whatever reason, it's a very low scoring division compared to the last 3 years or so. I did some digging and you are correct. Mad that of the 2 of the current top 3 teams, goals scored this season would have been met by 11 teams in 22/23. Rea...

I'm not taking ANYTHING for granted.

We draw against Watford and Sheffield Utd beat us and Cardiff we are all square again.

As the old saying goes, one game at a time!

Don't know the extent of the abuse but do their players deserve this after the season they've put in? I think that's what Wilder is trying to say in a very emotive way. Either way, the net of this and Leeds crumble is great for us. They say the problem with being in front is that you are always loo...

It amazes me how he can't see what effect his comments will have if they don't win against Millwall. They are bound to get some more negativity, this time from the home fans. What does he do then? Call out all of the home fans too in order to be "consistent" his word not mine. He's put himself in a...

https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/cj45nd75202o Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder has described the abuse his players received from travelling fans after Saturday's surprise 1-0 defeat at Oxford United as "a joke".

I only caught the last 10, what's the synopsis overall of the game?

Looked very stop start, ref blowing for everything and not clear quality up front. That fair?

criminalclaret

Fair play to him, always came across well. Is he still coaching / getting his badges? It's a subjective one, personally I don't agree on with best player in last 25 years though. He was injured far to often to ever fully be consistent Burnley legend (not his own fault mind). Will never forget that F...

What? ER red card?! Wtf? Bloody nowt

We've had 24 touches in their box compared to their 8 I ours. At home. With 60~% possession.

Doesn't scream "promotion winning" does it.

Throw the bloody kitchen sink at this now lads, really need to capitalise on the 2 teams above us.

Come on Burnley, really need to grab the game by the scruff of the neck now

When did we last score from a corner?

Never thought I'd say this but short corners should be the way as their keeper could spend all day dealing with Anthony whipping those corners in.

We've had a lot of sustained pressure, would love a goal before HT

Ironically that goal music is being played now post match at Frampton Park

What a result for Pompey (and for us!!!)

Exactly the same memories. Moby and Nightmares on Wax, what a great post-match soundtrack. Oh my word, Les Nuits by Nightmares of Wax! Didn't realise that was there, always partial to a bit of 'You Wish' Very much going down nostalgia lane now. Just need that but bouncing goal music and I'm back in...

3rd in league holding on to dear life playing like we are a relegation threatened side.

We are such an odd team with odd tactics this season.

We’re a really odd side.

We don’t ever really produce complete performances.

We blow hot and cold in games and when we have lost momentum we rarely get it back.

Couldn't agree more

criminalclaret

Really not sure you can compare this team to any Stan team! We’re looking like we’re about to set a clean sheet record this season for crying out loud! Do you not remember losing 2-7!!! Defence looks totally immense and light years away from anything under Stan. Problem is goals obviously, the one ...

And Leeds.

I can't see Leeds dropping from here on out, unless they take a big big wobble or have some serious injuries.

Sheff Utd are such a mixed bag (as are we) but I feel they are more than likely the team to drop 5 points in a few games and we can pounce on them.

criminalclaret

Subs have been fantastic. Once again, I feel I have to eat my words regarding Parker and tactics. We've been very inconsistent this season, probably not since Stan 2001-03 years have been have we gone from sublime to despair, game from game. 2nd half tonight has been another team in another league ...

compare how clinical we've been in front of goal tonight to PNE, much better second half since the changes

I'd say that was what Parker has drilled into them all week!

criminalclaret

Superb team goal that.

Goal of the season for me I think

criminalclaret

We should have scored in the first half but we didn’t. Your remember it was Foster not Parker missing those chances? Parker isn't like Fergie or Cloughy, he's not gonna hook a player after 20 mins for one bad miss. Where was throwing everyone forward in the last ten to try and get a winner. His pra...

Parker has got to look at his tactics moving forward or we risk play offs

There is very little fault to lay at Parkers door today.

Final 3rd was abysmal with AMPLE opportunities. We just didn't take them.

Should have been 3 or 4 goals to the good easily

To say we've made bloody hard work of this game would be an understatement

He should have shot all day long. Can't blame him for that.

Not with a defender on him and Brownhill wide open

criminalclaret

Anthony going for glory and blasting over instead of squaring it to Brownhill or crossing it back post.

Story of the day for him so far.

criminalclaret

Final third ball or finish absolutely abysmal today.

(bar Flemming as the lad has basically not had a sniff and when he has the opportunity he's selfishly given it to another player)

Subs needed now Scott!

criminalclaret

Oh Foster. Jasus.

Bad bad bad miss.

Feel sorry for Flemming getting bugger all chances and when he does, selfishly hands it over for naff all

criminalclaret

Foster seems to be liviest on the left, but doesn't feel like there is much cohesion between Foster, Flemming and Anthony today. Anthony not having the sharpest of games so far regarding final ball, but that's been his inconstiency all season. PNE playing a derby game and not letting us have our own...
