Candy Crush

Maybe this is why they have the worst home record in the PL.

Completely disrespectful and wonderful that we we 'put one over on them'.

I'm getting pretty tired generally of the assertion that Burnley are 'one dimensional' in their play....I think it's been over exaggerated by managers looking for lame excuses.....

Whilst you’re thumbing through the programme, have a quick look at Jacob’s (our mascot for the day) prediction for the score. He was interviewed before the game on the big screen too and predicted it.

If only I'd backed him financially on the way down, bless him. He got the six numbers wrong on Saturday night though........

Burnley put a little video up of the mascot greeting players outside the changing rooms, on their Twitter page.
I don't know if you have seen it?

If we were that one dimensional you'd think we'd be easy to prepare for.

I did thanks, another memento of a truly memorable day for him. What a fantastic club we support and also a massive thanks to the Southampton staff who were fantastic with us both.

Excel

No wonder they’re struggling at home with such an air of arrogance.

As for we aren’t as organised at the back. This is funny because I actually said on Saturday watching the game how solid we look. How every player is in a dead straight line with one another from back to front.

I do like this line from Dyche

"I don't know why programmes do that. I love it. I almost want to find the fella who wrote it and say 'thanks, you are magic.'"

They must have employed David Luiz to write that.

Same with opposition fans all jumping on the word 'horrible' to describe any aspect of us. They seem to think it's hurtful towards us; I think it's bloody brilliant. Keep it up everyone!

This was in our paper this morning too... comedy gold ... Sean just telling the lads whats in the programme ... no wonder they were fired up

Plus my Mrs is impressed that SD is a Candy Crush fan like her

Always love the oppo manager saying "We knew what Burnley were going to do" ...

after we beat them.

The comment always has an undertone of us being predictable, but they still can't combat it

Exactly. So either a) your team is too shite to pay attention to you or b) your team is too shite to outplay us despite knowing exactly what we were going to do

Has anyone got a copy of the programme??

Can you put a picture of his interview into this message?

Would love a read!!

What is interesting now is how teams seem to be changing their starting eleven when they play us and even train differently in the build up to the game
Just shows how they are affected by the problems we cause.....but we cause different problems too.

Also interesting how often we don’t change the starting eleven based on who we play. Basically it is more important to be good at what you do rather than try to combat specifically what the opponent does....perhaps Southampton should note that. They may not have then ended up with the worst home record in the league....

Changing tactics, training differently - but these pre-match comments from a manager are ones I enjoy reading. One particular manager said: "“We know Burnley is a tough game. We have that experience. They are a defensive minded team. They have had good results away from home against the big teams this season, but we know they play direct football.

“It is all about being concentrated on second balls, but also in our ball possession we need to be more direct. It is important to pick a team that can play that type of football.”

That afternoon, we beat Ronald Koeman's Everton with a goal at the end of a 24 pass move.

As the years have rolled on by the attendance against Orient is pushing upwards of 100,000. In 30 years time I expect that Hendrick goal to be pushing upwards of 500 passes, there seems to more more added every time it’s mentioned.

As for teams changing tactics. The greatest was Pulis at West Brom in one of the 4-0. His team just let us have the ball . Thankfully we’ve improved with it nowadays.

You do get some absolute nuggets particularly in post match interviews. However, I do think we need to take into account the fact that english is not their mother tongue and most managers - but not all - are conversing in some strange mangled english manager speak patois. The word "moment(s) has crept into the vocabulary often being used out of context and even Sean Dyche has succumbed to this affection.

It's this word 'predictable' that gets used a lot and I find it odd. Fans call us 'horrible', managers say they know what we are going to do. It's all a bit mystifying isn't it. I've said it so many times but I'll keep saying it - if you don't like what we do find a way of beating it or shut the f*ck up. The excuses for not beating us are getting more ridiculous by the day almost, not least the grass length. Do these fools not fully understand how stupid they are making themselves look. All this ranks alongside that most ridiculous statement that still gets used by managers to this day ' we did enough to win' after a defeat or a draw, no you bloody obviously didn't. Some of the most ridiculous shite ever uttered is uttered by football managers and many fans.

I find it highly amusing.

Sean has always said,We find different ways to win,It baffles them All,Come on little old Burnley !UTC.

Honestly couldnt care what people think of watching us.

Saturday wasnt for the purists. And it wasnt even great for us for large parts never mind neutrals. But who cares. We are in a results business and what the opposition think of us doesnt matter.

Ive no interest in how Chelsea or Newcastle or Brighton play.

CT post said 28 yesterday when I posted.

i think some of the opposition managers overthink it when they are at home to Burnley-surely all they need to do to win is make sure the grass is cut really short and is well watered

I don't see the big deal.

We do attack down the left hand side,
while we leave the Rottweiler at home on our right hand side.

It's not rocket science.

This week's programme comes 'critically acclaimed' with a quote from Dyche on the front, "Magic - I love it"

Well, Gosling has obviously learnt nothing from Southamptons mistake last week. Really hope we give Bournemouth a stuffing.
