One man's "gutter" is a similar man's brief, but sadly rare, peak, into what most right and fair minded folk, are thinking and increasingly saying's world.

I'm not in any way similar to you.

Genuine question. Which post prompted this reply? If you can highlight it then we can all agree that the conversation should be shut down because of said post, and not because its a subject you don't feel comfortable discussing There wasn't one single post that prompted my response. I compared this...

So in the face of classic up the clarets bs we have to be called ‘unable to read and a 3 year old’ within a few short posts. It would be nice if, just for once, us 3 year olds with reading deficiencies could post without the need to be called a 3 year old with inabilities to read.....after all what...

There’s no argument. Backtrack away but what you said about the hat trick mission is nonsense...

There's no backtrack, in my original post about Kane I acknowledged that he was fantastic.

I'm not going to go over it any more with you though because it's like reasoning with my three year old.

Rileybobs

Blaming that collapse to any extent on him trying for a third goal is nonsense. Was unlucky hitting the post. Not sure there was any point stating that he had been greedy during a great performance like that. If anything this season he has, I think, more assists than anyone else and has improved hi...

Anyone slagging Kane off for that obviously knows more than me about football. He was the best player on the pitch by a mile. He’s playing a deeper role most of the time and knitting all the attacking play together. I read some guff on here but really.... Not sure anyone has slagged Kane off. If th...

Rileybobs

Great comeback but really complacent from Spurs. As fantastic as Kane was, he was greedy beyond belief on a number of occasions looking for his hat trick when a pass was the better option.

It’s all gone to pot since Bale came on.

3-0. This brings back bad memories.

Dunk sent off for doing a Pickford on Cahill.

That penalty decision, and others like it, are the reasons why people are turning away from the game. So sad

It’s never a pen. But I hear a lot of people saying they’re giving up on the game, but they don’t.

Interesting that Gove said today that Track and Trace only works when you are facing a decreasing amount of cases. The government only got track and trace properly up and running when cases started to rise again. Had the system been up and running properly since May and people were not so delicate ...

Rileybobs

I'm splitting the blame, there's a difference. We had a weak government/PM and a half arsed negotiating team who just kept rolling over to have their tummy tickled. I believe if we'd have people who truly wanted to leave in charge, instead of being mouthpieces, then the current situation would be d...

He didn't do that though. He clearly stated his information on transfers wasn't reliable and was from a different source. I just posted above things that he passed off as fact. If you want to lap it up that’s fine, I have just called it out as the BS that it obviously is. I’m not really interested ...

No, I want a no deal I think we are better off with a hard brexit.

For some reason that doesn’t come as a surprise to me.

I'm being told to accept responsibility, so I have. Anything else you'd like from me on this matter so you can then complain about it? I’m not complaining about anything. I’m just pointing out that you pinning the blame of the current situation on the people who didn’t want to leave the EU is ludic...

You've asked me to take responsibility, I have done.

I'll accept whatever happens, leavers will do that you see.

Accepting whatever happens isn’t really something to be proud about.

Rileybobs

Never shirked accountability thanks. We spent several years dicking about fighting amongst ourselves because one side were so shocked they lost what they assumed was a forgone conclusion. Last year we finally got a gov that has ensured we will finally get this over the line with or without a deal. ...

He wasn't passing them off as fact, he passed them off as rumours from a different source to the takeover one.

‘Dwight’s gone’

Rileybobs

Nope, but you already know that. However we spent way to much time bickering amongst ourselves over a democratic vote that it was laughable and easily exploited by the EU. Are you able to provide proof that it wouldn't have been the case? So the people who were warning that this wasn’t going to end...

*Paid. I'm still not sure if you're agreeing with me or not. So you're not saying they are (putting extra games on), but you are saying they they are laying extra games.

CEO of the club no clarets tie or badge.
The comment over PPTV "you have a choice" came over as contempt for the fans.
Never liked him, don't trust him, very superficial and possibly using us as a stepping stone.

No claret tie. Classic.

Wasn't Mane sent off for a high boot a season ago, yet Walker is allowed the same type of high boot challenge? No action for Pickfords assault as the whistle had gone. Richarlison whistle has gone but bugger it we will send him off. As for the two off sides, if it wasn't for the fact I don't like L...

Why are you blaming Sky and BT for the PPV situation. It is the clubs that demanded this and set the pricing. All Sky are using is their Box Office platform in order to facilitate showing the requested games that were not originally part of the Sky Sports package The Premier League set the pricing,...

Probably because ‘This is a local club for local people’ mentality. Attack the poster and make him go away, then they don’t have to hear the alternative views that would destroy their world view. I don’t think anyone has attacked the poster. He has been pulled up for passing off things like McNeill...

Definitely a Boundary Mill special!

I’m not sure Burnley fans would take to an Armani suit and Gucci loafers. A lot can’t seem to handle players who deviate from a short back and sides.

Rileybobs

Unless I'm wrong and the commentators are right, dangerous play is still only an indirect free kick. The commentators were so determined that it ought to be a penalty that I thought the law must have changed, but I've checked and it appears not; it was just the commentators being appallingly unprof...

Or Pickford's legs-akimbo finisher move on Van Dijk's knee? We're told that the phase in play was offside, and so subsequent offences don't count, but if in a lull in play in between the whistle a player jumped into another's knee like that he's be gone. He wasn't spared a red because it wasn't a r...

Before implementation/in the early days I was never behind the argument against VAR that it would give fans in the pub etc nothing to talk about after games, because an innovation's capacity to stir gossip or chatter is no measure of its value, but I'm genuinely amazed how much more it's given ever...

Rileybobs

To be fair, everything was kind of ok before. You were either offside, onside ,or if it was a bit too close to tell you were level and therefore onside. I think most of us saw the can of worms that VAR would open, and it seems that every little bit of tinkering to the laws just makes the game worse.

It always looks worse when you slow it down.

Can you actually think of a worse challenge made in the Premier League over the past few seasons?

Rileybobs

I'm 8 episodes into the Haunting of Bly Manor. It's very watchable, less of a **** your pants horror than Hill House, more of an intriguing ghost story. Still got plenty of bits that make you go all shivery though I’m the same, just one to go. Must admit I’m a little disappointed though. Very watch...

Rileybobs

In fact, wasn’t Richarliason sent off for a similar challenge on Thiago after the referee had already blown for a previous foul?

Rileybobs

If you watch Bosscat's clip then you can see from the angle behind the goal that the referee doesn't blow his whistle until after the challenge, so there isn't even an argument about the ball being dead. Just another awful decision.

Rileybobs

Quite possibly it should have been a red card, but I doubt it was missed by both the referee and VAR, I'm sure they saw it, reviewed it and decided it wasn't violent conduct so not a red card. Yeah, they definitely didn’t miss it. But what an awful decision to let that go unpunished. I can’t think ...

Rileybobs

It’s amazing that anyone can keep a straight face whilst defending the outcome of this. It’s usually best to just hold your hands up and admit you were wrong.

They didn't, the ball was dead after an offside.

Peter Walton on BT Sports said it was a definite red. If not for dangerous play, then for violent conduct. As he said, the referee blowing his whistle doesn’t give players carte blanche to do as they please.

Rileybobs

Presumably he’d only weaken our position in the transfer market if in fact we are well-placed financially? If we were struggling he could spell it out in all its gory detail because it wouldn’t matter either way - we wouldn’t be operating in the transfer window as we haven’t this season. We operate...

With all due respect, up until very recently, I very much doubt the CEO did have more of an understanding of what was going on at the club. He’ll be on about 10% of the salary of Dyche and is nowhere near as influential. Football is a business like no other. You don't think the CEO of BFC would hav...

Rileybobs

Don’t really think Hart and Dyche have said anything contradictory, have they? Dyche said the club is well run and well placed financially. Hart said the same about being well run and didn’t contradict that we are in good shape. He said we’d lose “tens of millions” - that could be £15m or £40m. He ...

Arsenal look a much better side on the ball than previous seasons, but they're always going to struggle against the big boys with that defence.

I think you're asking in the wrong place as it's clear that nobody on here knows, and if they did they wouldn't be daft enough to make it public.
