I am away this week, so my seat is vacated. Back for Everton.
Madge had got up early to entertain us all, as I am unsure about my whereabouts, early on. Will be tuned in at match time, of course!
Here she is. Up the Clarets

You obviously didn't get the e-mail Ian saying that we've moved on from the French bird with disgusting tattoos.
Kate Beckinsale is here to save the day and become our new English rose mascot..........

Beckinsale`s a reet slapper! I`m sticking with Madge.

She has great movement, is very pleasing on the eye and seems to have an innate understanding with the big pair in front of her. Could she be the one to fill the `No.10` role?????

PS. Burnley to win 2-0 Cork header from Taylor cross and Lennon with a rocket, Pope and defence all get 10's and if it comes true, I will do a jig at the top of the Empire State building, if I ever go up it

Tribesmen...is the game being shown on Sky Sports PL ( ROI)?
So it says on liveonsat.com
That'll mean it'll be pretty widespread on the net.

Lump up to Barnes who'll be offside until the 80th minute then bring on Vokes and N'koudou until Southampton smash in a header from a 91st minute corner. 1-0 loss.

Feel bad for Taylor. He seems to have been growing and improving but Ward back is a big boost. Great to see Wood and Deano back on the bench too. Every games a big one but this is a great opportunity to get back to winning ways. UTC!

Extremely harsh on Taylor. How does Taylor get dropped almost straight away after having a few MOTM performances, especially against Man City but it took Bardsley multiple poor games to be dropped?

Understand the sentiment, I really do, regards Ward (a first name on the teamsheet contender before injury), but to drop Taylor is way outside the box of Dychelike loyalty. Other unnamed players remain despite concerns regard performance.

Ward is still the better player. Eventually Taylor will take over. Ward has played consistently well and the team have performed better with him in the side. No brainer for me despite Taylor doing well.

If Lennon and JBG play a bit further forward it could prove to be a good selection. I think that's why he's brought Ward back in, slightly better defensively than Taylor. Which he will allow the two wingers to do that.

Perhaps she should be dropped as there is no chance of a clean sheet with Madge around

I would imagine a lot of analysis has gone into this. Relating to lack of chances created.

Good afternoon everyone! Hope you're all well today.
Surprised to see Taylor dropped as he hasn't done much wrong at all - our problem is scoring goals not conceding! However, I do love Ward so it's nice to see him back all the same.
And good afternoon to ClaretCanada. Hope we can get 3 points for you today!
