We won’t miss a Wembley visit

We won’t have to see that 11 start again this season

I’m not on my way home frozen to the bones

Best chance for a while to get to last 8 and dyche plays worst team ever, Stephens as got to be worst ever Burnley player.

No positives at all from that viewing .

Clearly
Prioritising the league - but how bad were some of those players tonight? You can’t go out blaming the youngsters , the experience lads should have led by example and they quite simply didn’t - Rodriguez was absent for the entire game, Stephens looks as if he’s terrified to play forward, and was generally awful. Kevin Long not much better either , had a torrid time with their forward.

How do we expect the likes of Benson, Glennon and Dunne to perform when experienced pros like these are playing as badly as they did tonoght.

Roll on the next game

It was on bt sports so I didn't have to watch it or listen to the commentator everyone was moaning about.

And Chesterfield got knocked out of the fa trophy on covid tests.

Not sure which is the worst result.

Another 12 months after this season,he will be first choice next season when we finally lose our place in the Premier league..with the spine of the team being Farrell,Long,Stephens & Barnes :lol:

Highlight of the game for me was when Karen Carney dropped her attempt at RP and reverted to her west mids accent.

No footballing highlights whatsoever.

People were genuinely telling me that Stephens is better (at the moment) than Brownhill a few weeks back.

I know a broken footballer who’s going through the motions. I’ve seen lots of them.

Stephens needs to take up his coaching badges, or wander to league one and play.

I’m positive that Dyche’s wife rung him at 3pm to wish him luck for tonight’s match and he said ‘ oh blimey , I forgot, thanks for reminding me’

I just popped to the fridge to get another beer and had actually been thinking how glad I am that I'm not currently driving home in the snow after sitting through that joke performance.

I'm sure Dyche will say it was a performance with a lot of positives. He always does.

It is possible to be awarded a penalty at Turf Moor...


...but only if you’re the opposition...

Well we won’t get any! We’ve somehow got to work out a way of playing a ball into the penalty area towards a Burnley player first. ( our best chance is a dodgy handball from one of our 3or 4 corners in a game), providing the ball clears the first defender that is.

As Burnley manager (FM 2021) I am fighting a relegation battle, currently sitting 1 place above the relegation spots.
However I lost the League Cup semi final to Everton 2-0 and have just progressed into Round 5 of the FA Cup after a 3-0 demolition of Newcastle. Just been drawn away at Barnsley in Round 5.
Fans loving the Cup run - so do I put out a strong team for the trip to Oakwell?

I'm positive I don't want to witness a performance like that ever again.
I don't care about the result, but that performance was shameful.

I do agree if the performance was better then most people wouldn't be as annoyed. That's the case for me anyway.

If we had battered them and lost 1 0 against the run of play then fair enough but we got what we deserved.... nothing

I'm positive we need an overhaul and move some players on. Maybe starting with Stephens, another Dyche target offering nothing whatsoever.

Edit
Despite the Football, this season's highlight must be the First Goal Sweep!

2 year deal, so he's got 18 months left.

He probably would have done but if some sucker is willing to offer you a job paying tens of thousands a week you`re not going to turn it down, are you
