About to start on BBC 1. Not sure in running order but would expect us to be last.

Tall Paul · Post by **Tall Paul** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 10:30 pm

I reckon Arsenal Brighton will be on last.

Considering a 0-1 started last nights show I'd be disappointed if the only 0-1 of today's games wasn't first up

wilks_bfc · Post by **wilks_bfc** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 10:32 pm

Ooooh. I'm not disappointed

Chester Perry · Post by **Chester Perry** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 10:32 pm

first up - wow - Koeman must be the story not us

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 10:32 pm

Were on.

Chester Perry · Post by **Chester Perry** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 10:35 pm

it's coming

I always forget to record MOTD2... yet record the highlights on Sky Sports at 3.30 in the bloody morning.

Hadn't seen the goal before now. If that had been Arsenal or Man City i would have liked it but one dimension Burnley? Why can't we swear on here? Because that was ******* ******* superb

Anyone else bursting with pride at the way they're marking out Tarks for his performance?

MDWat · Post by **MDWat** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 10:48 pm

They singled Tarkowski out for praise about 3 weeks ago too.

Tall Paul · Post by **Tall Paul** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 10:49 pm

Can't have any complaints about the coverage tonight.

martin_p · Post by **martin_p** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 10:49 pm

Typical BBC, biased against us, never give us any credit! Oh! hang on......

Chester Perry · Post by **Chester Perry** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 10:49 pm

2 minutes of possession with a good open play goal at the end of it - what's not to like

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 10:53 pm

V.good coverage, yes.

Murphy gushing in his praise.

Claretmatt4 · Post by **Claretmatt4** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 10:55 pm

Our back five is immense. Also considering how well Cork and Defour played today they didn't even get a mention, just shows what a complete performance it was

Goodclaret · Post by **Goodclaret** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 10:55 pm

Heck, that was a glowing report from them all tonight.

And rightly so, we were absolutely amazing.

FactualFrank · Post by **FactualFrank** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 10:56 pm

Danny Murphy? Always gives us praise.

FactualFrank · Post by **FactualFrank** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 10:56 pm

Will this be available on catch up?

Tall Paul · Post by **Tall Paul** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 11:06 pm

Yes, don't think they put it on until Tuesday though.

Ex Blackburn player as well!

I say ex Blackburn. He picked up a wage for a month or two!

"Defensively, Burnley were perfect today"

Get in!

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 11:18 pm

To be fair, Shearer often describes us as "absolutely superb" on MOTD.

Were opening a few people's eyes.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 11:36 pm

"Tarks for England." being discussed by Murphy and co. Rightly so.

Great end to the programme.

IanMcL · Post by **IanMcL** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 11:37 pm

Very good to hear the comments tonight. Defensively perfect is something to put on the wall!

Tarkowski must have grown again after that. 6 ft 5 now! 7 ft by season end!

Made a point about featuring him a short time ago and then said they had to do him again!

This is what they did with £50m Van Dijk. Tarkowski the outstanding defender in the prem at the moment....hang on, there's Ben Mee too...ih and Steven Ward...and wet Matt Lowton.. not to mention Pope!

Blimey we have a defence envied by all!

claretdj · Post by **claretdj** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 11:55 pm

@ least we can say tarko will NOT be playing midfield again!

ClaretLoup · Post by **ClaretLoup** » Mon Oct 02, 2017 12:04 am

Please no England call ups. As good as Tarkowski has been let's keep things in perspective. He has made seven PL starts. When he has faced every team twice is when his international potential should be assessed.

Juan Tanamera · Post by **Juan Tanamera** » Mon Oct 02, 2017 12:14 am

The start to our outstanding goal was Steven Defour bringing the ball out with great purpose, something which I mentioned on here last week that he should be given licence to do regularly throughout a game.
Obviously Steven read my comment and took everything on board.
Therefore, I take 100% credit for our goal.

The major player who isn't being mentioned. The first name on the sheet, for me.

Me too FF.
I don't think I will ever tire of watching this lad play.
Wonderful player.

Can we agree that every man Jack of em are pulling up trees!?

I usually hate Monday mornings but this one will be far more easy to get over!

Up the 6th place Clarets!!

FactualFrank · Post by **FactualFrank** » Mon Oct 02, 2017 1:45 am

One of my Leeds supporting mates:
They showed the entire build up in the highlights. After I while I was already going "fair f**king play"
"You knew what was coming"

That's a Leeds fan who is holding his hands up and saying "fair play - Burnley deserve it".

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Mon Oct 02, 2017 4:19 am

I can see him being called up for England, to tie him down, as Poland are rumoured to be watching him.

It's a mixed thread, but I'm guessing you mean Tarks?

ExistentialWanderer · Post by **ExistentialWanderer** » Mon Oct 02, 2017 4:53 am

Looking forward to watching that on catch up when it's on. I had a sneaky feeling we'd get someting there and I really should have put a bet on us.

It was on Sky Sports about 3.30am. I purposely cancelled MOTD2 because every time I record it we lose.

Strange what we do in a superstition sense. Whenever I wore my shirt last season (was the 11/12 shirt) we lost, so stopped wearing it and bought the new one. Always wear my Burnley hat on match day walking the dogs first thing and, touch wood; my new shirt. Has worked so far this season. Must be something in it as the only time we have been beaten this season, I forgot to wear my lucky hat! There I said it, our success is entirely down to my attire and you not recording MOTD

Ha ha. I think if we all did the right thing, we'd win 38 games on the bounce.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Mon Oct 02, 2017 5:39 am

I have a long list of things i do and don't do pre game. I'm daft but it makes me feel better to try and appease the football gods with my superstitious things lol (right, off to give my head a wobble!)

Always intrigues me what lengths people will go to in their rituals.

Pleased they showed the whole 24 passes before the goal. Was very well worked.

I have highlights recorded on Sky Sports, and you can never see goals like that too many times.

It was brilliant that they showed the 24 passes before our goal.

It was brilliant that they said we were brilliant

It was just brilliant
