I'm sure Lynn was called 'Lynn the Leap'.
Maybe Wyn then became known as Wyn the Leap.

Or maybe it was the other way round !

ThaiClaret

I'm not doubting that but just think there might be a connection.

ThaiClaret

'Wyn the Leap' might have been a reference to Welsh Lynn Davies who won long jump Olympic gold in 1964.

ThaiClaret

It's getting old I really object to.

ThaiClaret

Yes
I'm sure that's the case.

Angus
Elder
O'Neil
Miller
Talbot
Morgan
Lochhead
Irvine
Harris
Coates

60+ years later the team still trips off my tongue.
It's not just that they were good players , it's more that ,even though most moved on, they embodied what it was to be Burnley.

Sad if those days are totally lost.

Why dont our defenders think

To hell with what the coaches say
Our keeper is struggling
I'll stop passing him the ball so often.

A game fitting the pattern of our season.
It's hard to take.

ThaiClaret

When you pass back to the keeper
Pass wide of the goal

Was it Berger
Not blaming him but

Shouldn't happen

ThaiClaret

No
No
No

ThaiClaret

Wanted it more than the keeper

Actually he jumped up to avoid the keeper and the ball hit him

Payback for last week's goal

A Brownhill rocket

Poor cross from Taylor

They believe they will score and win

We're just trying to hang on

At least our subs make some sense today

ThaiClaret

Shocking error in own box

WAKE UP

Header past the post

Are we good enough to survive?

ThaiClaret

I feel a goal for them is coming

ThaiClaret

Wellbeing still a handful
Isn't he a vet ?
Seems to have been around for ages

ThaiClaret

And that was nearly IT

But they miss it

ThaiClaret

Oh Fofana
Looked close but his starting position too deep for CF

ThaiClaret

Eskdal stood strong

ThaiClaret

They look far more likely to score than we do

ThaiClaret

Esteve
Pace and secure
Goal saver

ThaiClaret

Berger shoots !
Over

ThaiClaret

Been less intricacy around our own box

Good to not see !

Taylor on for Vit

ThaiClaret

Cullen's been quiet
Nothing wrong
Just quiet

Maybe because we are getting the ball forward quicker.

ThaiClaret

England Rugby ladies thrashing the Scots so not so bad so far

ThaiClaret

Decent half

ThaiClaret

Our strikers don't attack crosses well with their head

ThaiClaret

Oh FFFoFana

ThaiClaret

Fofana trademark miss

ThaiClaret

Brighton literally queuing up for that corner

ThaiClaret

And another shot on target for them

ThaiClaret

Esteve emerging as one of our best players

ThaiClaret

But we're giving it a good go

ThaiClaret

No shot on target yet

ThaiClaret

Another shot on target from them

ThaiClaret

Brighton going down like 9 pins

ThaiClaret

Playing wide right

ThaiClaret

Not quite going for Odobert of late

ThaiClaret

Like to see our wingers switch more often.
A la Coates/ Morgan

ThaiClaret

Yes
Brighton make a chance on target

ThaiClaret

Balance of the team looks OK

Larsen misses absolute sitter

Moving the ball around at pace
