It just goes to show that all those claiming that Dyche had lost the dressing room and that Tarkowski and Mee's heads were elsewhere, were talking absolute nonsense.

UTC!

Wasn't expecting that but sounds like a good performance
and we're still fighting and another away game out of the way.

I don't think there is any need to be in "I told you so" mode.
The last few for performances were awful.

This was good . Very good . Very different to the last performances so something has happened and it's better.

Magnificent defensive display with Tarks and Connor unbelievable. Shame we haven’t got a midfield.

It’s a good point if we follow up with a win against Watford.

It doesn’t deflect from how terrible we’ve been recently though.

Got to build on it now.

That's not what I'm doing. I'm pointing out the rubbish that the bedwetters on here spout at times.

We may still go down, but if we do, let's go down fighting and not with a whimper.

Fantastic point hard to pick for a MOM between Tarky and Connor, and Pope made some worldy saves too

'Classic' Burnley performance. Not seen too much of that this season. Hope the three-week pause and slide to the bottom of the table has been a bit of a wake up call.

Totally reasonable it being pointed out after some of the ******** written by a few people on here about Tarkowski and Mee.

Great performance from the lads at Arsenal. Selfishly, I’m hoping Egypt win on Wednesday, sorry Maxwell. A couple of signings brought in before the Watford game Mr Pace. Then over to us fans to get behind the lads and build on today’s performance. Get Turf Moor Bouncing. Encouraging result. UTC

From what we know of the personality of both Tarky and Ben, if they end up leaving they will want their legend at Burnley cemented in for a lifetime. If we stay up against the odds and they move on, they will be heroes and why would they not want that? I actually think Mee will stay if we survive and even Tarky may do (reluctantly) if Newcastle drop, we don’t and Leicester or West Ham move onto other targets.

So it has never been in doubt that they will try their best.

Today was indeed a great point. Three would have been ideal but too greedy (Dwight needs to get it on target more, his effort at the end would have been world class if stuck in, his finishing lets him down but he did great otherwise).

It’s a good point & unexpected but I’d swap it for the other 2 away results at vicarage road & elland road, but a point is certainly better than nothing & considering it away & the opposition it’s not bad & something to hopefully build upon.

The result against Watford is irrelevant to how good of a point away to Arsenal is. Cheer up.

No it isn’t, it’s obvious of course but a point at Arsenal alone won’t keep us up, we’ve to take that today and build on it, get some momentum going.

I will thanks. Can see the point in not being happy with a point away at Arsenal. Don't need to judge based on games in the future.

I agree but, people have the right to call out aj ever growing long list of performances that were rancid to the point where the attitude and certainly body languages of player was not what we expect. The re always a over reaction both ways of a result and I'm not one side or the other.
Should just enjoy a good performance without calling division

Nope. It's a messageboard. People have the right to point out where people are talking rubbish. Just like people have the right to point out a (perceived) lack of effort.

You can't have it both ways.

Peoples opinions aren’t rubbish though just because you don’t agree with them, people might think you are talking rubbish but are probably too polite to tell you.

Scotland and Wales case rates where they continued with them after we stopped them were higher than England's, so there's no scientific proof that they work, hence the fact that we are scrapping this stupid rule next week. Anyway let's not get the thread pulled.

People on here have questioned player's effort and stated as a fact that Dyche has lost the dressing room. After today's performance, I think we can safely say that is utter rubbish.

Like I say I'm not one way or the other but from my view and some others. I see posted from both sides that are passive aggressive and slightly antagonistic and that's where the constant bickering starts.

There are a handful of posters on this messageboard, who have predicted we will be relegated for the past 5 seasons, who currently infest every thread saying "I told you so"
You can't complain when someone who gets behind the team gives a bit back can you?

Don’t think he is taking anything away the performance, it’s a great point, a point I think no one would of expected, but I’m afraid unless you back it up with 3pts vs Watford it won’t count for much.
