Good performance yet again let down by the ineptitude of the defence. We have no hope when you’re defending like O’Shea and Esteve do. One ball dinked over their head or round the side and they’re ball watching every time.

Cullen, Berge and Fofana all very good today.

jedi_master

How do we not score there. COMPOSURE.

jedi_master

Nothing you can say really. The season continues to be a delight.

jedi_master

8 minutes haha

jedi_master

That was millimetres!

Assignon doing some silly stuff, but he has taken Kudus out of the game.

He makes really bizarre choices at times, but he’s doing alright as you say. Hes a lot quicker than I realised.

jedi_master

SO FAR today (barring the goal) I’ve seen a lot more desire to block, close down and tackle across the team. Cullen and Berge excellent.

jedi_master

Fofana had to try and put Vitinho in there

jedi_master

Good from Trafford

jedi_master

Delcroix coming on for Odobert…

jedi_master

We’re definitely a threat on the break. Corner.

jedi_master

What has Assignon gone down for there allowing a free shot on goal from about 5 yards out? There was nothing there. Pathetic.

jedi_master

I’d like to see Brownhill for Odobert in the not too distant. We need to pack the midfield.

jedi_master

Taylor and JBL looking decent down the left.

jedi_master

Cracking goal

jedi_master

McNeil was electric when he broke into our team and offered far, far more in general play than Odobert. He was a real team player who swung in a ludicrous amount of excellent crosses in his first 18 months or so in the side. Odobert has potential but he has an awful lot to work on to make it at this...

Sheffield United could win every game till the end of the season 5-0 and I wouldn’t care (well, bar against us I suppose). What does it matter anymore? We’re down and have been since before the pumpkins were being put out. Relax and look forward to next season, it cannot come quick enough. Literally...

Go on Oba lad

———————————Muric Roberts——-O’Shea——-Beyer———New ——————————-Cullen ———————-Berge——Brownhill ——-Benson———-Foster———Koleosho Trafford, Vitinho, Esteve, Massengo, Gudmundsson, Zaroury, Redmond, Mellon, New Striker For all of the hyperbole about how bad this team is, that side gets automatically promoted...

jedi_master

It was Taylor Lautner and his werewolf friends.

jedi_master

Berge and Cullen would be a promotion winning midfield, no doubt in my mind about that. Vital we keep him and we should be building our team around that duo next season. A core of Beyer/O’Shea, Berge/Cullen and Foster would be a decent starting point for The Championship. Reintegrate Benson and Zaro...

jedi_master

We have nothing else to amuse ourselves with this season now, so this may well be the silver lining for us in a terrible year of football. That is a rancid set of fixtures and the really important thing was Eustace not giving them a bounce - if anything they’ve seemingly got worse.

jedi_master

I find this idea quite scary to be honest, even disregarding personal opinion on if he should stay or go right now. We know what summer transfer windows under VK look like, we know how much they cost, how can it be sensible to go into this summer and potentially next summer with the plan of letting...

jedi_master

For those who want VK to remain... The Majority of the logic for him remaining has been because he has proven he can do it in the Championship. By that logic, do you sack him if he gets us back to the Prem because using that same logic he has proved he cannot do it in the Prem? I’m pretty clear on ...

jedi_master

Time to drop those who aren’t going to be here next season. He will know deep down who will want out, and we all know that Assignon and Fofana won’t be here already. Reintegrate those binned off, and give others who we will be relying on a go. There is nothing whatsoever now gained from playing (say...

jedi_master

Just got back to Chesterfield after driving home in silence. Left when the second went in to get a head start on the M62, sadly something I’ve found myself doing all too often this season. First half was the best we’ve played in months, but all the cutting edge of a blunt spatula. Defensively horrif...

jedi_master

She doesn’t speak for me or anyone else but I imagine that was an unintended turn of phrase rather than any insinuation that she did.

Shite article/piece regardless though.

jedi_master

Don’t think we’ll win again and can see a few batterings incoming as so many of the team have given up and we will now start to see that some begin protecting themselves from injury to get moves.

Maybe 3 draws - 16 points.

jedi_master

Notable how heads don’t drop at going a goal down either (see lack of reaction to Odegaard scoring the other week). As you say, no pride. I think they’ve all mentally accepted relegation (as have we). The difference between them and us though is I’m paying to watch these wasters as opposed to gettin...

Him and Foster easily on 20 goals each next season in the Championship

I probably would agree should he stay (definitely for Foster if he stays fit) but can’t see him sticking around. The level is chalk and cheese with this though.

Must have a good agent who has negotiated a very good contract.

I haven’t checked this to see if it’s already been proven to be baseless conscpiracy - but you start to wonder if that contract has a ‘must start every league game when available’ clause inserted in it.

jedi_master

Had him bang to rights early doors. He’s been a solid 3/10 most weeks since about October. Has quality on the ball when dribbling but no heart, no desire and thinks he can do as he pleases. He should be absolutely nowhere near the eleven, it’s insane that we’re effectively starting with ten men ever...

jedi_master

No idea what Kompany and Paces transfer strategy was and that has probably influenced the bizarre system we’ve adopted which has no clear pattern of play and is certainly not ‘attractive’ to watch anymore. If we had signed Harwood-Bellis, Tella, Berge, Mattsen (or someone else) and a right back as o...

jedi_master

I’d keep him and let him try and bring us back but it’s getting poorer by the game, no doubt about that. He will have very little time next season to get us firing though in terms of patience. Pace will sack him Monday though, feels about the moment for him just like when he did it with Dyche. I.e, ...

jedi_master

The worst part of this is the fact it’s only February. It’s been shite going on since about October and we have to suffer many months more of this out of duty. Not enjoyed even a second of this season, I’d go as far to say that it’s been my worst season as a Burnley fan and I started watching us in ...

jedi_master

If Dyche had been provided the resources to reinvigorate his squad over the last two years of his reign at Burnley, I would suspect we would be comfortably in a 'safe' area of around 13th/14th with him still manager here. He is guilty of hanging on to some players too long when good offers were ther...

jedi_master

Just a note on Zaroury - Hull fans calling for him to be dropped already. Really hope he turns it around there as we need either a good fee or him in form next season. Didn't realise that - I certainly won't write him off though in terms of what he can offer us. Hopefully a good pre-season and a bi...

jedi_master

Would love Number 1 to happen. I think it’s my biggest wish going in to next season. But can you see those players giving their all again? I can’t, sadly. Tresor perhaps needs a season in the Championship to get some momentum. He has to come good because he’s costing a small fortune. And finally, c...

jedi_master

Good report as ever Tony - particularly nodded at not feeling anything when the goal went in. I’d have absolutely left early yesterday but for being in the corporates. Dreadful day, dreadful weather.

Things will get better.

jedi_master

1 - Benson, Zaroury, Muric all re-integrated and starting games.
2 - Tresor somehow not signed, get our money back on Amdouni.
3 - We finally sign a replacement for Jack Cork to play next to Sander Berge.

jedi_master

The season is done and has been since about November. The club are not sacking Kompany because he has had one season as manager at the level we’re about to be in and won it at a canter getting 101 points. In my opinion rightly so, he has enough credit in the bank to be given the opportunity to bring...

jedi_master

Thank **** I was in the corporates today. That was as bad as anything we’ve ever put out in all our time in this league. Arsenal are a world class team, but we didn’t even try. The lack of any response from anyone when the first goal in (no heads dropped, no bollockings being handed out - nowt) says...

jedi_master

Happy to see so many still positive and supporting VK and the team. I don’t think any Burnley fan is happy with the way this season has gone so far but we’re not dead yet! In the long term it doesn’t really matter if we get relegated this season, I fancy us to bounce back next season and give it a ...

jedi_master

Hope that Matt Williams is close to the board on the subject of Kompany's job security. I am very much looking forward to next season in the Championship with him at the helm again.

jedi_master

He started the season very poorly, and he had a bad game against Fulham (not alone) but in general I think he has vastly improved from the lad who started against Man City. There’s stuff to work on but I reckon he’s a decent signing for £7m.

jedi_master

Jesus it's not all aimed personally at you, i was responding to your comment which caught my eye about having a rather ambivalent reaction to getting an equaliser in a big game. Im not saying the fans should be boisterous at all times but the players had given us exactly what weve wanted all season...

jedi_master

Its all well and good criticising everything about the club, which im guilty of too. But fans have a part to play as well and we arent doing it. Having a hissy fit about that comment sort of proves my point about being like sulking children. Dont know if you saw Everton yesterday but their fans pre...

jedi_master

Im sorry but this is just a bit crap if you cant be bothered celebrating a last minute equaliser with another 4 or 5 minutes left to go. Its that exact moment where teams like Everton, Leeds etc tend to find those big last second winners as the fans roar them on. Our fans have been crap this season...

jedi_master

No point mincing my words on this - we were absolute unmitigated garbage yesterday, and Fulham deserved to win on the basis of controlling the game for 60 of the first 70 minutes. The draw masked absolutely nothing as far as I am concerned and I could barely muster the energy to stand and celebrate ...
