• Tunnel Bust Up

Posted: **Sat Feb 18, 2023 8:43 pm**

Did something happen in the tunnel at full time, a fan said they were fighting but couldn’t see anything other than the protective cover shaking a bit.

Posted: **Sat Feb 18, 2023 8:44 pm**

I hope not

Posted: **Sat Feb 18, 2023 8:45 pm**

The commentators said Barnes and two of Lutons backroom staff were having a do with each other after the final whistle, but it didn't show the tunnel.

Good lad Ashley.

Posted: **Sat Feb 18, 2023 8:48 pm**

Takes two of em to go up against Ash.

Posted: **Sat Feb 18, 2023 8:50 pm**

Saw that, it was blown up out of all proportion.

Nobody will get the better of Ashley Barnes.

pretty sure it was just the ball bouncing down the tunnel

No, a bit more than that, in fact a lot more......But, as expected Ashley came out on top.

Bellamy was absolutely furious (red faced raging) with someone at the end of the game on the pitch, couldn’t see who it was as camera panned away.

I noticed that as well

He definitely didn’t look happy and there were a few stewards in the vicinity

Good lad Ashley.

Yes, with our current injury list, it would be great for him to pick up some kind of retrospective ban.
This isn't criticism of Barnes by the way, since I've no idea what happened and whether it was avoidable, and nothing may come of it, but for anyone to be praising him for getting involved in something unnecessary with all these games coming up seems a bit odd.
Never thought I'd be saying this but Barnes is turning out to be a v important player for us at this tough point in a long season.
Let's hope it was something and nothing, since he's already been charged once this season.

Retrospective ban ?.......Are you serious ?

Ash was completetly the innocent party and yet he still came out on top.

Barnes is Burnley through and through, and be grateful for that fact.

The whole of the Luton team did today to be fair. Apart from scoring the penalty he was completely ineffective and was probably our worst player on the pitch today

I don't think you read my post.
I said that I hoped there was nothing to it, as I hadn't seen it, but we know Barnes has a bit of a reputation and the authorities will find any excuse to punish him.If "he came out on top" then there was clearly something but hopefully your interpretation is correct and will prevail.

He scored the penalty in a 1-0 win..... and was a massive influence on all his teammates.

You really need to understand that.

did you sit today at Luton ?

I don't need to understand owt thanks. He was poor today but as I said on the match thread once we had the penalty there isn't another player I'd want to take it.

Barnes slows our play down in the false number 9 role and I think we are really starting to miss Jay

There was more than a "bit to it", but trust me Ash was representing Burnley Football Club as he has done throughout his time here........and fair play to him.

That might be your interpretation DA, but not that of all serious minded Burnley fans.

I can assure you 100% that no player is more committed to Burnley Football Club than Ashley Barnes, no matter what his limitations as a player.

Never said he isn't committed and think he's a top bloke and will be brilliant around the squad.

Having him as a regular starter is what concerns me as he stifles the fluidity of our play and it's started to show the last couple of games

What more do you want than a win ?.....As I emphasised his importance to the contribution of his ALL his teammates cannot be overstated......Can you not see see that ?

Chill out sounds like you've been having a few whiskeys to celebrate the win

It's not that difficult to be happy with a win and still have an opinion on the team and players performances without it all being 100% positive. It is a message board after all

After another three points, a whiskey is more than acceptable.

If only you could converse with the other players in our team, you would 100% understand how important Ash is in to be included in the starting eleven. They love him to bits and he would always be the first player on their teamsheet, no matter what the main man VK might select.

Posted: **Sat Feb 18, 2023 10:58 pm**

We need him against teams that play like Watford and Luton did, and Millwall probably will.

Don't forget his team is in the relegation zone in the PL

Now I'm home (with another whiskey), can't tell how much that three points meant to me.

DA, please tell me you understand the point I'm desperately trying to drive home about Ashley ?

He is crucial to everything the Club stands for and thanfully, VK accepts that more than anyone.

DA is a wind up merchant Royboy forget trying to have a sensible conversation

So DA you still trying to wind up on here. If I was you I would be extremely worried at the demise of the never mighty but always dirty Leeds. Great win today for our Sean

M65/66 roundabout- thinking of starting crowd funding for a statue of Barnes - similar height to the angel of the north

No, I think Barnes was poor today and it seems people have gone back to thinking him throwing himself about and battling hard is worthy of a good performance.

He's had a couple of great games recently but ultimately I think he slows down our play and our football isn't as fluid and as good with him up top instead of Jay.

How's Muric doing? You finally stopped slagging him off every game yet boo boy

Posted: **Sat Feb 18, 2023 11:52 pm**

Be good to debate the tunnel bust up with DA on here but seems like he''s disappeared ?

Perhaps he's the wind-up merchant that so many indicate ?

My post was nothing to do with Barnes. 100% about the demise of Leeds. As for Muric I marked him a 10 v PNE a low mark v Watford when he was Ill and a 7 today. Hardly a boo boy. What marks did you give him lol

Why does it matter if people are originally from Burnley?
Surely all fans from far and wide are welcomed?

Personally, couldn't manage it, too important to me.......but fair play to you.

Did you depart when Mac was in his prime ?..........Even more difficult to comprehend, but then again I've had a few whiskies after that brilliant win today Luton.......You must miss not being there ?
