So much analysis but the simple fact is that the first and basic responsibility of a goalkeeper is to stop the ball going into the bloody net. It was an unbelievable error in the circs of both the individual match and our season as a whole and as much as I love watching Muric pass the ball it’s pret...

He got lucky with us into Europe

A new low even for on here ? Imagine thinking that you could achieve that by “luck” .

Have had a season ticket since the Orient game,experienced highs and lows,didnt think we would ever see the Prem at many points along the way and now were are here [for now] its probably the least enjoyable time as a supporter. Ive jacked in Sky Sports,couldnt care less about International matches ...

I'm sure there are surgeons who will recently have seen Redmond, Koleosho and Ramsey

It’s frustrating not knowing the position with Tresor . If we had any halfway decent local journalism surely VK could be asked straight up ..”have we signed him or not ?”.

Everton completely bullied us in the previous 2 games this season and I fear the same afain (but hope I’m wrong !)

Maybe we’ll see Odobert out wide and Foster through the middle this time . We’ll have to wait and see.

If that strut is in danger of falling from that height I'm surprised they felt they only needed to evacuate one block really.

Muric 9...almost worth the price of admission just to watch him.Great save from Ait-Nouri to keep us level. Vitinho 7 Taylor 6 Esteve 7 O Shea 7 Cullen 8 Berge 7 JBL 7 (includes a plus 1 for a superb goal) Odobert 6 ...I much prefer him on the wing Foster 6..I much prefer him up the middle Fofana 5....

Don’t even Start Me Up on how much I want us to win this

Stalbansclaret

Yes ..I haven't had my result yet but wasn't necessarily expecting it quite that quickly.

Don’t think Dyche ever wanted him, Jackson dropped him and Kompany didn’t want him. I remember listening to the Monday Night Club football discussion programme on Radio 5 a few weeks after we signed Weghorst and when Dyche was a studio guest, He (Dyche) praised Weghorst to the skies for his attitud...

The idea that he would "rip up" the Championship is based on what ? He's been awful whenever I've seen him ...I mean really, really terrible..... so this opinion seems to me to be just a hopeful fantasy. I accept that his stats in Belgium may offer some hope but the evidence of my own eyes suggest t...

Stalbansclaret

Would be great news if we hadn’t (though from earlier reports I fear we have). I’m still angry about his “contribution” at home to Luton and really struggle to see him coming good. If, indeed, we have signed him I suppose he might be effective in the Championship but he comes across as really not wa...

Toe-curling, not least his blouse ! As the caption says it's hard to imagine Dyche settling down to watch this !!

Stalbansclaret

I'd think the fact that this season has been such a car crash makes it more likely that Sky will go ahead with a second series. Other than we Burnley fans there will surely be more interest amongst supporters of other clubs than there would be in watching another happy procession. I watched the Sund...

The funniest HT entertainment I’ve ever witnessed was away at QPR a good few years back. Blokes were made dizzy by running repeatedly around a corner flag planted in the centre spot before setting off towards goal with a ball at their feet and attempting to score past a keeper. The dizziness made th...

I don't know you either Mick but Ive followed the stuff you post on here and would happily chip in a few quid if money is a barrier to you getting up here for a game.

I’ve recently moved back to the area. Does anyone know a dentist’s practice in Pendle, or Burnley , which is taking on new patients ?

Apologies for my misunderstanding …can’t say I’d really considered the initial cross other than thinking Assignon should have hooked it clear but clearly thought it was a goal kick . Just watched it again and yes I’d agree Trafford could have claimed it ..the TV commentator thought the deflection of...

As the old guys used to say “He’d time to throw is cap on “ It’s not my style to denigrate other posters and no doubt you do possess good knowledge of football but if you truly think that it’s the keepers job to catch corners that far ahead of the front post you are honestly appearing not to unders...

The corner they scored from came from a cross he should’ve claimed.

Seriously ? You actually think that the ball had arrived at a point where it was the keeper's job to deal with it ? I'm sorry but that is just ridiculous.

Stalbansclaret

The constant excuse making for Trafford is laughable. I have no agenda re Trafford whatsoever and certainly don’t feel to make “excuses”!. Rather than just state my post to be “laughable” maybe you could tell me what I have said that is incorrect ? What is “laughable” is the opinion of people who s...

I genuinely didn't think he was at fault. Both goals are **** poor defending. I'm not a Trafford bum boy, but I didn't believe he was culpable today tbf. First goal …. Not his fault in a million years. Odobert loses his man after a half-hearted attempt at tracking and two defenders (one was Berge) ...

Mind you I don’t think there is any evidence indicating our players would behave poorly in this respect is there ?

The main reason we're where we are I'm afraid, but as the saying goes, wouldn't do for us all to be the same, could be anybody for me not just muric, as long as it's not this one. You're perfectly entitled to your opinion as to the relative merits of Trafford and Muric but to say that Trafford is "...

Not sure how you can catch many out. They know the law inside out and what to say in any interview. They would have to be overwhelming evidence against them.

Bit of a daft thread this I think. I mean it’s obviously a pipe dream financially but what’s all the angst re Turf Moor about? I go on for a couple of hours to watch us play and it serves its purpose fine as far as I’m concerned. I’ve been to numerous of the newer stadiums around and, leaving aside ...

Stalbansclaret

I shouldnt bite I know but such buffoonery winds me up too much. Just watch it man !! …Trafford is watching the ball getting himself into position to jump when Adebayo backs into him and impedes him. WTF is that to do with being “cowardly” ? He was fouled (obstructed), it really is as simple as that.

My mum died from pancreatic cancer in 2016. She went from being outwardly healthy to passing away in about 3 months. I think it’s about the worst form of cancer in terms of survivability as things stand. Very sorry to hear of your own loss.

It was a loan until the end of the season after which he automatically returned to us

But surely he could have been loaned out to them again this season ? A bit like McAtee going back to Sheff U again on loan this season.

It’s very interesting. Been listening to the BBC Sounds 18 part programme about this and it’s truly shocking.
