Burnley v Lowerhouse

[Bigbopper]

Was the umpire at the Belvedere Rd end Tripathi's uncle?

I did wonder how much of the car park takings it took for him to keep putting his finger up on every shout?

[dandeclaret]

Remember when Stockport fans questioned the neutrality of the referee in the play off final, when they had 2 players correctly sent off?

[Somethingfishy]

I also seem to remember we had a hell of a lot more fans there than Stockport..so your analogy doesn't really work does it?

[FCBurnley]

Sorry fishy but you were totally outplayed in every department of this particular game. To hear you blaming the umpire for giving his decisions is actually quite sad. I assume you had a perfect clear close up view to back up your accusations. If so how many of the not outs that went against Snowden did you think were correct ( all I suspect)
Best to just put it out of your mind and move on to hosting your cup final. Lots of beer sales and revenue especially if the sun shines
We will just concentrate on trying to stop the title going to a suburb of Blackburn
Up the Clarets

My oh my you CPCC lot aint half touchy...and you say it's all one sided.
My post about the umpire..if you hadn't noticed...had a laughing face and a wink. Chill out. Knew the usual suspects would bite Pathetic.
If you had cared to read this thread properly you will see further up my thoughts on the game and my admiration for the Burnley bowling as a unit.
Get a grip.

That's twice now Lowerhouse have been properly pumped by Burnley this season in the league isn't it ?

You would have thought they would have turned up at least once, maybe the day is too big for them.

Slight improvement. 83 runs earlier in the season, 74 runs yesterday.

[Quickenthetempo]

I think it proves that Burnley are the better side this year.

Although Lowerhouse could have the better season with a cup win and 20/20 win.

Superb performance from the town team. Bedford, Snowden & Tripathi were outstanding in a very satisfying afternoon. Easiest victory imaginable & never in doubt.

[Bigbopper]

Well beaten yesterday, one should not question the impartiality of the umpires but 5 out LBW? On to the Worsley cup and hopefully a return to form.

UTH

So in fact you are questioning the impartiality of the umpires? There could be 10 LBWs in an innings - if in the opinion of the umpire it's out, then it's out. I did the job at a high level for 15 years - perhaps you should have a go?

[GetIntoEm]

there were at least a couple that looked dodgy calls, but thats how the cookie crumbles.

There could also be 20 run outs but unlikely to ever happen.

Burnley are well known throughout the league for intimidating appealing, it is a thing of wonder to see all 11 players go up as one shouting and screaming. The umpires need to be strong and I would suggest yesterday they may have crumbled in the face of pressure.

And I would suggest they did their job fairly without any crumbling at all. You don't get to officiate at Lancashire League level if you can't take pressure. Anyway, I'll take the 12 point win, the easy double & the reduction of the title race to 2 teams. Come on Burnley.

[claretonthecoast1882]

Good to see a hammering being taken well.

How bitter do you have to be to question the umpires in a Lancs league game. I take it that it was the same umpires as the game at Lowerhouse at the start of the season.

[Burnley1989]

I didn't see the game live so couldn't comment but a top bowling attack are more likely to hit the pads on wickets they play on most weeks, it's sour grapes to blame the umpires. Get bat on ball, and take the decision out of the equation
As others have said, we've got to dust ourselves down and move on to next weekend.

Quite an accusation for umpires who give up their time (for very little compensation) and who enable games to be played.

Getting umpires is harder and harder in league cricket every season and this lack of respect is a disgrace.

3 bowled and 5 lbw suggest they bowled very straight.

All wickets can be viewed on the scorecard if you still think you have been cheated.

i dont think a single Lowerhouse fan has said that Burnley didnt deserve to win? Their fast bowlers in particular were on fire.

[FCBurnley]

The 2 superstar ( best in the league we were told ) openers were both clean bowled. Heap survived 13 deliveries ( not sure how ) before departing for a duck. Whitehead lasted much longer but was also bowled. The game was already done and dusted before he was out
I have never seen the Burnley opening bowlers before but they both bowled a great line and length in direct contrast to the visitors attack.
I think it was Hopey who described Salpietro as the best pro in the league. Yesterday against top opposition he was anonymous

Tbf, I'd still stand by those statements. Their league averages shows it to be fairly accurate.

There is literally a post a few up saying the umpires crumbled under pressure and gave people out

[GetIntoEm]

and the same poster says we were well beaten.

Poor form this pal. I responded to your initial call jokingly and got grief (because people can't be bothered to read) yet you seem to be genuinely asking questions. The one on the pro was perhaps the iffiest so I am told. I was sat square so have no idea. Was told it looked to be going down the leg side and the wicket keepers movements would suggest that. However the decisions are made in good faith. You shouldn't question that.
I also didn't think Burnley were over the top with their claiming yesterday. Try going to Clitheroe or Walsden if you want to see that in action. We had a guy fielding in front of us on the square leg boundary shouting loudly and prolonged at Clitheroe. Someone pulled him up on it and he just shrugged his shoulders and said "why not? It all helps"

The stats suggest we do have the best batsmen in the league and the best pro when you combine his bowling (most wickets) and his batting. It isn't up for opinion. It is freely available to be seen on the Lancs League website. What that does mean is that Burnleys bowling yesterday was exceptional. It had to be. As I've said a few times now (which you seem to miss every time) is that i think taken as a whole the Burnley attack is the best. They bowl very straight and very economically right from the off (that can slso be seen via stats). No looseners. They also have 3 fast bowlers and I don't think any other team in the league has this. It is quite a rarity. Pair that with Ocky who has always been a tight bowler (perhaps less so yesterday to be fair, got swiped for 6 a couple of times) and Bharat then you have quite an attack. No weak bowler to hit about.

Says it all.

[FCBurnley]

Says it all.

And I have never seen Lowerhouse opening batters either. I know who were superior yesterday though. I also had a rather better view of the paid for Umpires LBW decisions you were so incensed by. Then you freely admit you were sat at square leg !!! Now THAT really says it all

So you are dishing out what amounts to a gloating based off one game? You have no idea(certainly in a wider conversation about local cricket) what you are talking about have you? I'd hazard a guess this goes for the majority of those purporting to support Burnley CC on here.
I can't speak for the other House fans on here but I know my stuff as I follow the league as well as House.

Oh and YET AGAIN you are claiming I was incensed by the LBWs. Please point out where I said that? Can you even read and comprehend what has been written because you aren't demonstrating you can?
Go back and re-read you absolute whopper because you are making a fool of yourself here.

Pipe down Lenny. I can only see Bigbopper who has been unfairly grumpy about the umpiring (and even he said Burnley deserved it). Everyone else has held their hands up. Another one who needs to re-read what has been said. All I'm seeing is Burnley CC supporters ( a term i use loosely from what has been discovered) using that as an opening to perpetuate the gloating.

Are you conveniently missing the wink at the end? I'll give you a clue. It sort of signifies it was made in jest. You have well and truly bitten My oh my you are serious and intense aren't you? I've even qualified my stance in a post aimed at Bigbopper about poorly accusing umpires.

As an aside..I never saw any winks when the snide accusations about paying players etc was being thrown about. Never saw any evidence being offered either. Hmmm interesting.

Again. Making a fool of yourself.

[FCBurnley]

So now you have been challenged it’s all good fun and you didn’t mean it. Suggest in future if you don’t mean something then don’t write or say it. Keeps you out of trouble. Anyway thank you for paying to watch yesterday. Nice of you to make a donation

Give it a rest now yeah? You refuse to listen or read. Going round in circles. Clearly a wink there and most definitely a joke in response to Bigboppers initial remark about the umpire. I've qualified it since..and ive said that countless times. You just choose to ignore it. You are here for the argument and have been from the start. You don't even watch the games. You've freely admitted it. You are a joke pal.
I also suggest you practice what you preach regarding the keeping out of trouble.

I confess I don’t know Eddie Cobb but Jackie Barnes was certainly a character.

He certainly was. There was a banner with his face (and a slogan I can't remember) at the old Rossendale Utd ground on Dark Lane behind one of the goals
