No Respect

Post by Tackler49 » Sun Aug 31, 2025 1:01 pm

Last night I listened to a phone in on talk sport phone in and as expected it was all ManU the 2 clown presenters kept saying “ But it’s only Burnley “ so the Utd fans start saying it one pundit last week said we wouldn’t get the same points as Southampton Troy Deeney never a good word to say and thinks we are relegated now, on MOTD not a word it’s like the Premier League only has 19 teams in it they just have no respect for what we are i think some of them choke when they say the word BURNLEY. I hope we have enough points to stay up by January so they can all choke on their lack of respect UTC

It's very rare I hear someone who I think talks sense is also disrespectful towards Burnley. Level-headed pundits/commentators tend to at least have enough about them to put it across the right way if they think we'll struggle. Troy Deeney just comes across as someone who would have spent all his life in prison had it not been for football. Clueless and classless.

We're a small town club who is insignificant to people apart from our supporters. Very few Worldwide neutrals would switch on to watch our games, unless we're playing one of the big boys of course.

All we can do is to try and amass enough points to stick two fingers up at the Premier League and the pundits by gatecrashing their party..

Some of the people who sing "no one likes us, we don't care" are lying

Talksport is the radio version of clickbait. Only interested in the ‘big’ clubs as they define them. I don’t listen anymore for this reason.

Standard of punditry is also going down the pan, seems to be a trend of bringing former pros in that can barely string an intelligible sentence together; I’d have Deeney in that bracket. If it serves as motivation then great, otherwise best not to pay too much attention!

We get no respect from the officials either which is the biggest issue. How we can end the season with multiple football league defensive records and then get the experts dismissing us so readily and comparing us to a team that almost broke the record low points from the previous season having come through the playoffs (having conceded more than 3 times as many goals as us at Championship level).

Must admit, MOTD was very disappointing last night.
I don't mind Mark Chapman, but he never referred to the game once from our point of view, I realise it's probably not his doing, probably the producers, but I expected a few words along the lines of "well, that's from the United perspective, what about Burnley?" But no, everything was about Man U.

Poor.

Just a load of Chelsea fans, basically.

Chapman is a Man United supporter.
