Who'd take a point now? Or can we do 'em?

I believe!

Yellow for Pieters.

What a turnaround in this half. Why haven’t we done this for the past 12-18 months

Yes whatever the outcome this 2nd half has to be the standard for the rest of the season, though where it's stemmed from has me baffled.

KateR · Post by **KateR** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:36 pm

let's go for it, we can take all points now, especially since Everton have not played their part in tonight's games

Watford lost, good news. Would be immense if we could nick one.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:37 pm

Yellow for Brownhill.

KateR · Post by **KateR** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:37 pm

have to say I'm not a fan of Brownhill but he's trying and working

Good save Mee.

Brownhill needs to give up football and do something he might be good at like signing on

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:46 pm

Weghorst done very well since we actually managed to get him into the game. It's all died off a bit now, but the signs are the most promising they have been for a while for us.

This has been brilliant second half, real chest thumping stuff. I hope we can knick one to cap it off

Basher Barnes to blast one in.

So you think being a second behind everyone else is acceptable?

You think not being able to do basics in the Premier League is ok?

I'd hate to see your house...

Just watching the replay of jay's goal and that little turn by WW completely takes out two United players, that was class and lay it on for jay, who did superb with the finish.

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:50 pm

Can hear the fans pumping it up. Come on Burnley

THEWELLERNUT70 · Post by **THEWELLERNUT70** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:50 pm

I actually think Brownhill has been one of the big plusses tonight when you compare our last two centre mid pairings

NickBFC · Post by **NickBFC** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:53 pm

McNeil doing his best to give me a heart attack. Come on Burnley.

KateR · Post by **KateR** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:54 pm

one last punt by Pope and knock it in please.

derryclaret · Post by **derryclaret** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:54 pm

Great second half, deserved that point

Murger · Post by **Murger** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:55 pm

Absolutely more like it.

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:55 pm

Well done lads. I hope we see more of that heart, fight and effort in our remaining fixtures.

KateR · Post by **KateR** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:55 pm

good point, could be the one along with Arsenal that makes a difference

Pearcey · Post by **Pearcey** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:55 pm

Miles better!! We need to carry on like this just to have a chance. UTC.

Good point

Good effort 2nd half that.

NickBFC · Post by **NickBFC** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:56 pm

Well, what a second half. Undoubtedly our best half of the season, and what we all know we are capable of. Grit, determination, winning 50-50s with a bit of quality here and there. A shame Newcastle won, but definitely something to build on. Some good performances, but I do like the look of WW. Led the line well, grew into the game and showing far more class on the ball than Wood managed. Helps us up the pitch and will notch given service.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:57 pm

Took us 45 minutes to wake up, but great point.

BurnleyFC · Post by **BurnleyFC** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:58 pm

A much improved second half performance.

Second Behind a muti million pound institution like Man U isn't anything I think possible.
You've a rather big mouth.
What do you think?

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:58 pm

Great second half, WW was very good. Brownhill was everywhere too but as always he has a tendency to lack that extra quality on the ball. Hope Cornet isn’t injured and it’s just stiffness…

Boss Hogg · Post by **Boss Hogg** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 9:59 pm

Great 2nd half. Good intensity. Must have had a rollicking at HT. Different team completely. Wish we could play like that more often.

The turning pt

Onwards and upwards.

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 10:02 pm

Keeps us in touch but another big win for the Geordies

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 10:02 pm

That 2nd half gives us genuine hope that we can yet escape, a huge turnaround and we definitely deserved the point over the 90.

Unbeaten in 6 home PL games now.

Tribesmen · Post by **Tribesmen** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 10:03 pm

Wow really a game of two halves , this was a point won no doubt about it .

IanMcL · Post by **IanMcL** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 10:22 pm

Brilliant!

Naughty Madge says it is like a win!

TheOriginalLongsider · Post by **TheOriginalLongsider** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 10:56 pm

And did you see Wood with a free header for Newcastle? So glad he’s gone. Weghorst looks a better player

Andreshotboots · Post by **Andreshotboots** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 11:00 pm

Three points against Arsenal, Watford and Man U were probably all I could have hoped for, so onwards and upwards, we're the unflushable turd that just won't go away, let's drag some teams in this fight with us!!

bfcjg · Post by **bfcjg** » Tue Feb 08, 2022 11:38 pm

Great second half, however we started getting a head of steam innthe first that carried over.

& winless in that home apart, draws are all good & well but won’t save us the gap I thinks increased with Newcastle winning.

fighting for it, and it paid off. Hopefully keep the turgid Dyche /Pace out knuckleheads quiet for a day or so. UTC.

Yes that's the frustration, we've been competitive in every game, but we can't quite edge those victories.

11 draws in 20 games shows that we can compete, unfortunately we've generally reserved our best performances for the bigger teams, and if we could only have shown those levels in the Leeds and Newcastle matches we'd quite possibly be out of the relegation zone.

Nothing we can do about other sides winning, and that Newcastle victory might pull Everton into trouble, so it's not all doom and gloom.

We say the same thing week in & week out but when you look at the league table nothing ever changes, we might see Everton edging closer as a positive but I don’t think there’s any chance of Everton getting relegated same as Newcastle, draws just aren’t enough plain & simple,

It was great to be there and part of a crowd totally behind the team.
