I'm going to be uncharacteristically optimistic and say 3 against either Leeds or Arsenal (and 1 against the other) and possibly a cheeky 1 at Leicester. So 4, and maybe even 5?

Come to think of it, I've given my head a wobble and realised you're dead right. Not sure what came over me!!!

Towards the back end of last season and the game on Saturday, we no longer look solid at the back.

Zero points.

None.
Our first points will come via a 2-1 win against Norwich, by which time we will also be out of the League Cup and on our way to very early relegation (and up for sale again).

Not that any of that will be a bad thing.
Premier League football is no fun and as fans it is of no benefit to us.
We will pay progressively more and get less and less enjoyment.
Ask most Burnley fans over the age of 21 to name their top five Burnley moments and see how many of them involve the Premier Lrague.

3-5

We should be beating Leeds at home and should be able to squeeze maybe 2 points from 12 from Everton /Arsenal/Liverpool /Leics

One game at a time.

Win against Leeds and Everton, and nobody is even thinking about us.

Is that the Leeds that pasted us 4-0 last season at home? With exactly the same team we'll put out as last time I don't see how we will come away with anything but 0.

When was the last time we put much effort into a game once we are safe?

I agree. In the last three games for the past five seasons in the Prem we have taken six points in total.

So much negativity. We are ahead of Arsenal and Man City at the moment. Do you think they will be relegated?

Who knows? Stranger things have happened. If we sign Cornet and Maitland Niles, anything could happen.

In total. We have one win and three draws spread over the five seasons.

And I'll weave custard, but at least give us a chance. Nearly two weeks of the window left and it's obvious we are trying very hard to bring in a bit of class.

Personally don't think we'll make any additions that will improve the starting eleven. I live in hope rather than expectation.

In this context, other than that I'm fairly happy and optimistic about everything else.

You can't say that the new board isn't trying.

Was an odd game closely matched until we conceded on HT. After 0-2 of course it was goodnight Vienna . This however isn’t any end of season jolly and I’d sincerely hope we’re up for it . Re:0 points ,you maybe right ,if so we’ll be relegated , but I genuinely believe we can get at least something on the board in 5 games .

It’s not a question about only 6 games more like 38.
