Brownhill: set pieces

Good to see Brownhill back in the starting eleven but why is he allowed anywhere near our set pieces? I'm struggling to recall a Burnley player who is as consistently bad at them. Very strange

Sorry, but the hat trick against Barnsley was at home.
We were 2 -1 down and a few of us put money on us to win at half time, back when there were kiosks on Turf.
We won a few quid and had a great Tuesday night 😉

The defence in 2009/10 was worse under Coyle than Laws to be fair. He at least, in general, stopped the constant hammerings away.

This team is lacking experience but the squad isn’t.
It reminded me of our away performances in the top flight under Coyle yesterday
