Clarets v Mackems

Take it the ref has not been told about the scheduled stop on 15 mins.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:19 pm

Sunderland doing very well at pushing onto us and not giving us time to play it around at the back.

Git!
Went straight through Tella then.

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:21 pm

Targeting Tella there for sure.

Sunderland midfield are doing really well but surely they can't this up for 90+mins they'll be shagged out by 65min

I thought there was to be a Ramadan pause for fluids or food?

Casper2 · Post by **Casper2** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:23 pm

I thought fans were searched before entering the ground

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:23 pm

WTF?
Smoke bomb??

Kgun5 · Post by **Kgun5** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:25 pm

I haven’t seen a Claret goal in 2.5 weeks. Starting to get the shakes.

Hadn't seen this before I posted the same thing.

A lot of loose balls.

Rick_Muller · Post by **Rick_Muller** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:27 pm

That pass from Barnes - superb

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:27 pm

Better
Great ball by super ash

Corner

Ampth7 · Post by **Ampth7** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:27 pm

Sloppy so far

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:27 pm

What a ball by Ash then

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:28 pm

Good save to THB scoring

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:28 pm

Soooo close.
Come on, Burnley.

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:30 pm

Makems corner

HunterST_BFC · Post by **HunterST_BFC** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:31 pm

Barnes is totally baffling the two CB's - they don't know where to run

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:32 pm

Good save Muric

Longsider · Post by **Longsider** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:35 pm

Come on yooooooooooooooooooooou Clarets

criminalclaret · Post by **criminalclaret** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:35 pm

Tella Barnes fewest touches of the match. Sunderland defending well

Kgun5 · Post by **Kgun5** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:35 pm

I really wish Tella wouldn’t do that.

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:36 pm

That’s a penalty

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:36 pm

No need for that by Tella.

Never a penalty in a million years, not the first time Tella has done this and he needs to stop it.

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:37 pm

Their player blocks him off

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:37 pm

Tella didn't appeal and didn't seem to be looking for it.

Pickles · Post by **Pickles** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:37 pm

Sunderland are playing the opposite to how most sides have played at Turf Moor this season. And as if by magic, it's working. We've been brilliant at home but I have been a bit baffled by how easy teams have made it for us.

Moorite · Post by **Moorite** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:38 pm

Tella dives so much and not one has worked. The boy that cried wolf comes to mind when he is actually fouled and we don’t get it. Referees know who has a reputation for it.

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:38 pm

Why do we insist on passing to players who are being marked.

Casper2 · Post by **Casper2** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:38 pm

Need to wake up here

Croydon Claret · Post by **Croydon Claret** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:38 pm

Not good from Tella. He's better than resorting to diving

KRBFC · Post by **KRBFC** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:38 pm

Brownhill been really poor, way too deep and slow on the ball.

Paddy1882 · Post by **Paddy1882** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:39 pm

Brownhill so far off it touches poor, passing backwards constantly.

criminalclaret · Post by **criminalclaret** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:39 pm

I really don't think it was a deliberate dive nor was he claiming for a pen. Just fell over

To be fair, it’s been a few games since we’ve looked the runaway leaders that we are. But if this is a slump, I’ll take it.

Ampth7 · Post by **Ampth7** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:39 pm

Not working so far……

Teams have come and had a go and been blown away, we've just been off it tonight so far, we're definitely a better 2nd half team.

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:40 pm

We will do our usual, hopefully, and up the tempo second half as they tire.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:40 pm

Yes you can tell we've got a few returning from long injuries + international break

How are they playing? Coming at us?

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:40 pm

Put it down to Tella having a dry run for whats expected all over the Prem next season.

This. If someone goes down in the box we want to immediately label it a dive or a penalty. I don't think the Tella one was either. He tries to shimmy his weight to avoid the tackle, loses balance and eventually goes to ground.

Casper2 · Post by **Casper2** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:41 pm

Got to score there

Rick_Muller · Post by **Rick_Muller** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:41 pm

Should be 1 up… great chance by Barnes

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Fri Mar 31, 2023 8:42 pm

Thought Ash had that then.

Agree.
However, they'll have to keep it up for 90 minutes or take advantage by scoring.
