On a personal note I will.

Don't know, but I bet a few numpties still run onto the pitch.

I would but it takes then an absolute age to come back out so I'll be off, I have a long drive home without waiting for ages listening to that goon on the microphone padding it out.

It depends on how we play probably. If we win 3 0 more will stay

It’s a shame that people have to run on the pitch otherwise the players after shaking hands with the opposition could just walk round the pitch at that point to thank the supporters, all done in quick time.

Apart from the old stalwarts leaving there is nothing to applaud for this season

Hoping it’s a great turnout for the lap of the pitch after the game.
Should mean I can get home quickly and be back in the garden with a glass of wine.

It would be nice if people stay to see off Cork and JBG (and maybe Jay Rod and Taylor). Nothing to else to really applaud this season.
If we go 3-0 down it will be a graveyard though.

I'll probably stay, but if they take forever to come back out as usual i'll be off to the pub.

Let's hear it for BURNLEY.
Should never have ousted Ian Bannister, he gets the club.
He just reads out the HT birthday sh!te now.

Got to be straight after and the cheering will be for the old guard, who have all earned their Clarets spurs.
Up the Clarets.

Thankfully in some respect has been my grandsons christening today , so whatever happens it will be special for me. Just seen the updates though on the score …. Let’s just get the players on for recognising their service and move on

Bit half arsed, just like most of the season. I think initially they'd planned on walking off, but then decided to come back

He won't even be doing the half times next season - they mentioned at half time that he is retiring. I remember his voice even from when I was a kid!

I suppose I should have stayed to applaud off JBG and Cork, but this season has been so depressing, I just wanted to get out of there as soon as the final whistle sounded.
The game was as good as over after fifteen minutes, so I did well to last so long.

First time in watching Burnley for 50 plus years I've walked off at the final whistle on the last home game
I cannot clap that pathetic bunch of lightweight half hearted bunch of tippy tappy mercenaries.

Final whistle for me. As for waiting the usual 20-30 minutes for them to reappear? Yep, fair enough if they’ve just won the league, fair enough if they’ve even made a fist of it and gone down fighting, but what we have been subjected to has been shocking. They don’t deserve a “lap of honour” and anyone at the club who suggests otherwise needs potting.

Final whistle for me also. I did give a standing welcome to Corky, JBG and J Rod. But I wasn't prepared to stay and applaud mediocrity. This was my 63rd season watching this fantastic club but never have I seen only 2 home wins. Abject. With apologies to T S Eliot, this is the way the season ends, not with a bang but with a whimper. But I'll be back next season!!

I wish that bell end with the microphone would retire/ get finished. “ LETS HEAR IT- FOR BURNLEEEEEEEEE”. Do we really need that?

Any idea the club might have had that Burnley fans can have the wool pulled over their eyes is dead.
This is now a stand off

Best part of the day was seeing and listening to Dobbo at half time. Articulate and charming. Well done, Dobbo.

Stayed to the final whistle, clapped the lads but then headed back home.
Highlight was chatting to ClaretTony pre-game!

Kompany should get ten games in the Championship to show that his 'project' is back on track.
Anything less than top six and he should be replaced.

They had to endure a little speech by Kompany for two minutes then did a quick lap of honour. It was over by five past six.
CFS gave JBG and Cork a little send off then I thought that’s enough with the ground virtually empty.

That must be the first time that nobody has tried to go on the pitch at the final whistle.

The highly paid players looked as though they didn't want to be on the pitch as well.

I couldn’t leave quick enough when the final whistle sounded. I stood and applauded our ‘proper players’ who are being released as and when they were subbed on, that was enough for me. Absolute shite today. We had nothing to play for but we played like we had less than nothing to play for.

You'll not be back next season then?
What do you mean by "proper players"

Even after a good season like we had in storming the championship, that clown was still grinding my gears.
It's nigh on impossible to have a chat about the game at HT with Mr Shouty on PA.
"Make some noise"
He certainly follows his own advice.

I left about 5 minutes after the final whistle. There was about 20 percent of Burnley fans left in the ground.
