Burnley vs Brentford - MATCH THREAD

[Tribesmen]

Afternoon on a wet Galway day , hey Paddies tomorrow who cares , got to win this one

[THEWELLERNUT70]

The pencils will already be sharpened by some for every little error that Muric makes ( have no doubt something will be found) despite him not starting since January and hardly playing

Saying that I'm hopeful today, some player on our bench returning should give us a boot

COYC!

[NL Claret]

Big ask for Muric. Barely played this season. At least Brentford won’t just be able to lump crosses in under the bar. Glad to see Foster back in the squad and Ekdal

I’m sure that Muric got loads of stick for been indecisive on crosses into the box last season. I suppose the longer one is out of the team they tend to improve on here. We will see, 3 pts today, I can feel it.

[burnleymik]

Come on!! Lot of pressure on Muric's shoulders now.....

He did then really improved. Still inexperienced himself - I think Traff has now played more mens football than he has.

[derryclaret]

Afternoon all, like Galway a miserable day up here, and yep we have to win this one

[Andreshotboots]

Utterly weird. Trafford makes numerous mistakes and keeps his place. Last week he does nothing wrong and gets dropped. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy to see Muric play, but still, bloody odd!

Because this is where our 7 game winning run commences keeping us up..

[Kgun5]

Looking good for an early PK.

[JimmyRobbo]

How does the ref not give a penatly?

[spt_claret]

Got to be a pen surely clear as day

[Wo Didi]

Don't like the way he threw himself down but that is a stonewall pen

[JimmyRobbo]

Clearly onside. Why are we waiting half an hour?

[Wo Didi]

They seem to be desperately trying to find a reason not to give it

[Kgun5]

Lines say onside.

[THEWELLERNUT70]

The question is how the f*ck did Bond miss it in the first place

Fukking shocking officiating

[Colburn_Claret]

SS saying var couldn't provide the pictures, that's why the delay.

[boatshed bill]

It's a pen!!!

[spt_claret]

This is farcical

Blatantly inside and blatantly fouled how is Bond struggling with this.

Vitinho once again with absolutely elite movement god if he could cross or finish what a player

[Superjohnnyfrancis]

Lovely stuff

[Superjohnnyfrancis]

Thank God for that thought they were going to **** it up

[Wo Didi]

A penalty and a red card, come on JBL

[Paul Waine]

Come on Jacob Brun Larsen!

[JimmyRobbo]

I think VAR/Ref eventually got the decision right.
Penalty and in this stupid world of cheap red cards, it is correct.

Football has gone nuts but why did the silly boy try to shove him so dramatically?

Still young enough to improve.

[Wo Didi]

Yes get in. Come on you Clarets

[Superjohnnyfrancis]

Go on JBL!!!!

[CoolClaret]

Unreal penalty from Muric

[Paul Waine]

DOGSO, same as Josh Brownhil at Palace.

Got to admit I was expecting a yellow at most

[Kgun5]

If we can't win this one, this board may need collective therapy.

[ElectroClaret]

Took far too long . Should have spotted it anyway.
Still at least he gave it in the end.

[Wo Didi]

Don't like the way he threw himself down but that is a stonewall pen

Was a bit unkind on Vits there, he was brutally chopped down as he was trying to shoot, one of the most obvious penalties you'll see god alone knows how the ref didn't give it.

[clitheroeclaret3]

12 v 10 now with Muric as sweeper keeper

[Commy]

I think one of their players was blocking his view. Rely on the assistants when that happens, or VAR

[warksclaret]

12 v 10 now with Muric as sweeper keeper

A new broom sweeps clean

[spt_claret]

Muric first involvement gets us a terrific fast break. It's honestly something so important to our play style that we've been lacking, didn't come off for Fofana but that's the kind of play that can scare teams

[tally]

Come on U Clarets lets score another before the break

[criminalclaret]

How did Assignon kick that out of play then?!? Total lack of control and brainpower.

We look in more control now with that red card (as we should). But we are so slow to whip in a cross, when we do were always bloody offside

[JimmyRobbo]

The Turrf seems to be oddly quiet, despite us leading.

[spt_claret]

Brentford getting more into it now even with ten. Nervous again now.

[PremierLeagueClass]

I’ve said this many times on Vitinho. Some of the stuff he does is technically fantastic. His work ethic and attitude is spot on as well. He always makes himself available, never hides unlike a few others that are guilty of it every game. But then he will go to put a cross in and it’s head in hands

[JimmyRobbo]

How has the lino given a fk against Assignon?

He's a Brazilian Graham Branch!

Absolute joke

[burnleymik]

That's was harsh on Vitty. Vitty done well here this first half.

[Paul Waine]

BBC saying there was 5 and half minutes between foul and penalty being given. Prepare to be late home if you are at the game.

UTC

[Kgun5]

Good lord, O'Shea!

[Elbarad]

Good grief O’Shea

[tally]

o'shea oh dear

[HollandsPies]

Have I just seen Nathan Collins?
Thought he was at Wolves?
