CLARETS V Weeds MATCH THREAD

[CombatClaret]

Positives: We look like we could get a goal.
Negatives: We look like we could concede three more in doing so.

[warksclaret]

Wheres the players pride gone-I think we have so many out of contract they are not too concerned

[Denno97]

Missing Browhills energy in midfield here.

[Milltown1882]

Four more years.

What other manager on earth wouldn’t be under pressure now?

[Lowbankclaret]

In an ocean of examples of poor performances this season - this is the very, very worst.

I got pelters for saying we were crap against Utd.
Today we started ok but then just kept giving the ball away. Topped of by Tarks losing it and the goal.

[RVclaret]

Has to be the worst half of the season. Trying to find the positive which is we are only 1 down. Needs to make a triple sub now with Stephens for Westwood, Cornet for JBG and Vydra for Lennon.

[cockneyclaret]

Sorry time for dyche to just **** off

I'm very surprised the board aren't talking that something needs to change!

[Lowbankclaret]

Agreed it’s not going to affect their wages , they are off to new clubs.

[BurnleyFC]

Soul destroying anti-football.

[Guller Bull]

Good Championship style game.

3 shocking mistakes from Mee, Tarks and Westwood and could have been so much worse.

Very little to offer upfront. Lennon is AWOL today - Cornet on surely!

[cockneyclaret]

Can't we pull a few fake covid tests out and get the game called off

[Conroy92]

Enough is enough, no confidence, same tactics every week (I can already say we'll probably do ok for ten mins at the end when Vydra comes on), players seem to have lost there technical ability and several look like they want out. Time for Dyche to go and bring fresh ideas while theres still the January window. Anything but now is accepting defeat.

No second half at Newcastle takes some beating for me.

[IanMcL]

It is only one.

Might Claret heroes will rise to the challenge in the 2nd half.

Here is Madge to cheer us up for the 2nd half.

[FCBurnley]

Get JGB off Vydra on. Lennon on right McNeil left.

[BabylonClaret]

Pretty awful last 20 mi s there. Centre Backs both look half asleep. And why is McNeil out right?

Gudmunsson off. Jay on and push lennon out right with Dwight back on the left

[CombatClaret]

Has to be the worst half of the season.

Recency Bias.
It's not, but it is one more to add to the pile of bad halves.

[jedi_master]

I am starting to think this is a really good point. When they were contracted they were fighting for their salary not getting halved from the relegation clauses.

Now though - Cork, Westwood, Vydra, Mee, Tarky etc etc, what does it matter to any of them? They’ll just shop themselves out for a deal elsewhere.

[jojomk1]

Not sure Cornet would be wanting to come on giving he goes straight to AFCON after this game
Won't want to chance another injury

[Hedontplayforyou]

Abysmal

[Somethingfishy]

Today we started ok but then just kept giving the ball away. Topped of by Tarks losing it and the goal.

We were a hell of a lot better than this at Utd. We played football and gave them problems. Defensively we were poor at Utd..and again today but today we are woeful all over and playing zero football.

[SalisburyClaret]

Just can’t pass - time to play with the U12’s

[clarethomer]

We played well against United so if you did get slated for that, I can understand why.

Today is a different game and our performance hasn’t been anywhere near good enough.

The only thing hurting us at the moment is our own mistakes.

[Andreshotboots]

Don't like saying it but maybe SD is the problem very stubborn man with his tactics

Exactly what's happening here. They are taking risks leaving men high up the pitch knowing we are so poor on the counter that we won't hurt them. When they win it back they've often got 4 on 4. Cornet has to come on to at least push them back. They are very much beatable but if we just come back out expecting a change it won't happen. Sadly it seems we are so far throwing in our two worst performances in our most important games.

[IanMcL]

Stay calm. All will be well.

[FCBurnley]

Wood will never have two better chances to score.

[Elizabeth]

Clearance from a player who knows he wont finish the season here,, a number of players playing like they know there future isnt at burnley. Very dissapointing

If that is the case then let’s get rid of them and rebuild in the Championship with the parachute payments and fees from the likes of McNeill

[evensteadiereddie]

Just can’t pass - time to play with the U12’s

You might want to rephrase that, we're in enough trouble already..

Playing like that, they won't get picked up by anyone higher than National League!!

Just said the same, plenty of bad games to pick from but that was so bad. Can't even do the basics

[CrosspoolClarets]

Problem we have is that we have four on the bench we may want to bring on - Stephens to add some craft to the midfield, Cornet, Jay and Vyds. Playing Lennon at 34 less than 3 days after 90 mins at OT was daft imho. Vydra should have started.

The McNeil / JBG switch also makes little sense to me, and the Pope absence is unfortunate.

Most decisive though (so far) is the scandalous way teams can get games called off to get fresh for a relegation battle. Will be looked back on as a shocker from the Premier League, but if only little clubs go down it’ll be brushed under the carpet.

[GodIsADeeJay81]

This sounds horrendous on the radio....

Also the commentator called Leeds an established PL side

[Superjohnnyfrancis]

What we are seeing is Garlicks fault robbing the club of millions to feather his nest, absolutely shameful.

Dyche doesnt have a plan A either going off this showing but they are both equally culpable.

Need to get both out of the club as fast as possible, dont think Pace has the bottle to do it though, I hope im wrong.

[SalisburyClaret]

Fair point Eddie!

[ClaretMov]

2 wins in the last 12 month's at home

About 8 wins in around 50 league games in total, no change in formation ever, any other manager would be sacked, please please please the Dyche lovers try and defend this tripe

[KRBFC]

At least it's half time, 15 minutes respite for the fans. Truly fkn dreadful from back to front, zero composure on the ball, passengers in the middle of the pitch, non stop giving the ball away when it's an easy pass. Gudmundsson is so bad, just offers nothing.

[jojomk1]

if Newcastle seriously want Tarks - let him go

[Vino blanco]

I’ll repeat what I’ve said many times in the last two years: our midfield is garbage, Westwood, Cork, Brownhill, Stephens would struggle to get into a Championship side, our tactics are one dimensional and so predictable, our ball retention is abysmal. When you add to that individual mistakes in defence, the recipe is one of disaster.
I’m sure the happy clappers will be along soon to tell me I’m a bedwetter and need to grow a pair, or even better go and support someone else. Good luck you to lads if you are happy watching this rubbish.

[Nonayforever]

Dyche is completely out of ideas now. He's got to the point of not knowing what to do anymore.
The tactics don't work, the formation doesn't work, the players don't know what to do apart from bang it forward.
Dyche either has to change the way we play or go.

[Stacks]

Double sub

Vydra - Lennon
Cornet - JBG

Taylor mom so far

[evensteadiereddie]

Fair point Eddie!

Gudmundsson should never have been offered a new contract. He’s offered nothing for three years (when he’s been fit).

[Lowbankclaret]

Today is a different game and our performance hasn’t been anywhere near good enough.

It’s about opinions I agree, but I thought we were poor against Utd.
Today we just cannot pass to another claret player.
Sad really.

[superdimitri]

The players will be getting bollocked right now.

[The Enclosure]

Keep the faith boys.

[Woodleyclaret]

Wrong choices from the off
Now we are having to play catch up in a must win game

[jedi_master]

The players will be getting bollocked right now.

I imagine they’re quite used to it, and it clearly has no effect.

[tarkys_ears]

The players will be getting bollocked right now.

Maybe it's time to bollock the dinosaur.

[KRBFC]

We played well against United

Playing well is losing 3-0 after 30 minutes? the game was done and dusted 1/3rd in?

[KRBFC]

Gudmundsson should never have been offered a new contract. He’s offered nothing for three years (when he’s been fit).

I told you all 3 years ago but I'm the negative one
