Sorry, Bow, but the evidence so far doesn't support your view. Whilst I agree we may go down, I really don't think we're going down (if we do) with a whimper at all. We're fighting in every game; seem to be in every game; causing problems for every team we've played (whether that's making chances or...

Goddy

Tony - think your article mentions Crystal Palace rather than West Ham, as one of the other November games.....

Goddy

Not much claret and blue action in the NFL. I became a Pats fan just because of the underdog wild card success in that 85-86 season.

Quite like the Packers, too, who might be neareat to Burnley in terms of small town team success.

Great to hear Goddy, your team?

I'm a Pats fan from waaaaay back (85-86 season when The Fridge did his thing for Chicago). Loved the Brady/Belichik era but the last few seasons have been grim.

Who's your lot, Depeche?

Goddy

JJ doing a good job of promoting the clarets commentating on the Steelers-Jets game. He sure did. Great plug for us from JJ which, I presume, is broadcast across the States. All helps increase our profile to an international audience, even in a small way. Decent game, by the way, Jets V Steeelers....

Goddy

Oh, and just for fun, here's where I have the points for those teams I've listed above after the next 6 games.....

Burnley 9
DL 8
Villa 7
Fulham 7
WHU 6
Brentford 6
Wolves 3

Lottery numbers to follow......

We've certainly been handed the toughest start to the season.

....but that's coming to an end and if we're still in touch (with at least a point against Forest) I think we'll be competitive not just in the next 6 games but across the season.

Goddy

So, just go with this rather than picking fault (as, for example, I've not included Newcastle or Sunderland who will probably do OK in their next 6 games) but here's who the (in my view) early relegation candidates have in the next 6 games. Personally I think we'll be in the relegation zone until th...

Apols for typos...Merson not Metson and 100% not 10%

....back to VAR after the Metson divergence..... Anyone who is saying 'offside is factual' is talking nonsense. Sorry to take this academic route but if you were making an assessment you'd have to take account of the variables (such as the accuracy of when you think a pass was made, the accuracy of ...

Goddy

Nothing showing now as available. Well, that's annoying. I've got the 'Extra Member' thingyo in the hope of being able to get to a few away games (particularly in London which is much easier for me to get to than Turf Moor). Unless we start taking our full 10% (or whatever it is we can take) I doub...

MultiMillionaire Daddy JCB owes ovver £500M in Tax - Paid forBoris Johnsons wedding etc etc and gets a pass. Starmer somehow idnores this also. Pretty sure Patrick will be fine.

Goddy

Good question - I was thinking it was 9.00 am but still only Lazio tickets available as far as I can see

Goddy

A quick question....when are tickets for away games likely to go on sale?

Goddy

Yeah, lovely. I particularly like the bit where he got a camera crew to follow him round, that was a nice touch. It wouldn't have meant as much if it wasn't being filmed, so I'm pleased the whole world got to see how selfless and genuine the whole thing was. Lovely. Ouch! Come on Dave - of course y...

Oh, jeez....that made me well up!!!

Well done to all concerned from Eddie to Charlotte and everyone else in between.

What I love about this is not only SP's emotional side coming through but, in the background in the stands above, you can hear the crowd singing 'you'll always be a Claret'.

Jeez - we've had (and seen) a LOT worse this season, quite frankly

Goddy

I was sat with the Derby Ultras :roll: (my pal and his son have season tickets and the son couldn't make it). I have to say, they made a lot of noise throughout the game....but so did the Clarets fans. There was actually quite a respect going on despite the wind-up chants e.g. one of the locals said...

Apols for predictive text malfunction, above, Roper

Too late to edit....

There's a lot of love being shown on here (rightly). Roper - to have such strength in the face of such adversity is truly inspiring. I hope you can keep fighting and continue to look for, and take the positives. As others have said, there's little, if anything, any of us can do but offer our best wi...

I've been more dull than usual and had a go at predicting the results for the top 3 from our Luton game onwards. I'd put us down for a draw against WBA and Sheff U beating Bristol City, so, from my perspective, whilst I'm a tad disappointed with only a draw against the Baggies I also feel like we've...

Amazing save by Pompey keeper right at the end....

Game over

Ha ha

One minute left.....play up Pompey!!!!

5 mins of additional time ....

Prize money is pretty poor in the cup.....just getting to Wembley for a semi-final would make £1-2million from the gate receipts alone. That's where the decent cash might be made.

Goddy

Make that 20/2

Goddy

Can I just thank everyone for your input here. As PremierLeagueClass says, there's so much misinformation out there it's good to get the views of everyone who has practical experience of EVs (both positives and negatives). Plissken - thanks to you in particular for your (what seem to me) sound and c...

Goddy

Now I know this is a football forum, so apologies for the off-topic, but I'm after a bit of (relatively, I hope) unbiased thoughts on EVs. Any ideas about boring things like range (battery life), when the battery degrades over time - which I assume it does - can you change/update/upgrade it, any con...

Born in Leeds (sorry) in the 1960s....always hated them for the same reasons most of us dislike them now....unpleasant fans and (back in the day, moreso) unpleasant team/manager (Revie). '74 cup semi-final I was unduly gutted about Burnley losing and decided then and there that that would be my team...

Goddy

I guess of all the teams left, they all seem beatable if they have a bad day (well, you know what I mean, more so than the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool seem beatable....even though a cr@p Man U and Plymouth beat those two, respectively)

Goddy

So, we're only at the 5th round of the cup but with the likes of Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, Spurs gone and a few other all prem fixtures which will see the back of, for example, either Newcastle or Brighton, this seems like the most open FA Cup for quite a while. Even those of the, so-called Big 6...

Goddy

I think that's correct too, however the biggest difference is seeing teams drop off at the bottom ie the number of teams that can catch us keeps reducing till it becomes (hopefully) only one team, or better still, no-one that can catch us. In theory, the first of those teams that will drop off could...

Goddy

Thanks for all that info dibradio! I've also just discovered that every team achieving 90 points (or more) has ALWAYS been automatically promoted......apart from DL last season who managed to get 90 points and not go up (chortle) My 85 points suggestion might well be a little low as the average for ...

Goddy

92 pts minimum Really...with 4 teams going at it and each taking points off each other (at times) I suspect a lower number of points might be needed this season. Either way, mid-80s or low 90s required, I think we're likely to get enough....esp if we can beat 2 - or maybe all - of the other 3 up th...

Goddy

Looks like it's 2 from 4 for automatic promotion.

What do you reckon will be enough points to take at least second place?

I'll go fir 85 (which in effect means 11 more wins from 20 games)

Goddy

DD - so sorry to hear about your dad. He sounds a top bloke.

Take care of yourself and I hope you/your family and friends all pull together....and maybe, in time, smile when you think of the good and, hopefully, amusing times you had with your dad.

Slightly O/T but poor punctuation is my big bugbear. A comma can make such a difference e.g. 'Let's eat grandma' is very different to 'Let's eat, grandma'.

Thanks guys for your replies.

I'll try calling again later (when the Rovers rush has died down). I've dug out confirmation email (from Ticketmaster which has the seat numbers etc) so I think I'll be able to sort it.

Cheers

Right - I bought tickets for the Derby game back in July (as soon as the tickets became available). I can now no longer see any tickets in my account with Burnley - no trace of purchase in the Purchase History section. I've checked with my Ticketmaster account and there's no tickets there either.

Agree with your thoughts entirely, hgas.
