Morning all.
Looking forward to this game.

They are our feeder club....

Hope we're up for this today, but I have my doubts now we're safe, good to see Dunne, Nartey and Richardson on the bench, though whether they'll get any minutes is questionable.

Congrats to Charlie on his century. Charlie Taylor makes his 100th Premier League appearance for Burnley today.

He joins the 100 club in terms of PL appearances, and that list must be growing rapidly now, I guess Dwight will be the next to reach that milestone, and if you'd have said a decade ago we'd have over a dozen BFC players who'd managed over 100 appearances at this level people would have thought you were , so this feat alone shows just how far we've progressed as a club over the past decade or so.

Only 8 named on our bench

Yes, our intensity understandably tends to drop after we've achieved whatever our objective for the season is. Plus this squad definitely needs a good rest after the season we've had

Afternoon all from a overcast day here in Galway and not that warm really hey it's May but i am sure the Clarets will warm me up today as i would love it if we beat them .

Come on you Clarets .

True! but the blatant injustice at Elland Road should have them fired up if nothing else.

I’m still REALLY angry about that

I’m going to miss seeing this game today so will have to wait for MOTD later.... Come on super Burnley let’s hope we get retribution for the last time we met DL.

Well! let's hope the players have the same fire in their bellies today. And want to prove a point or three.

Joey Barton co commentator on Clarets Player

Positive start in these opening minutes

Positive start

COME ON BURNLEY

Bt sport just said its the growler v the prowler lmfao

Come on Lads
Come on Lads
Come on Lads

Playing some fancy stuff so far. Great to see.

Great start and some good football

First mention of us being ‘’a physical side’ after 3 minutes

Looking good, keep it up, lads.

McNeil looks very lively so far

Not sure Vyds was offside there

Eh Mr linesman?

Comms already moaning about late offside flags.
It is so simple. You play on, if a goal is scored you review, if not you play on. No need to stop the game for a FK.

Stupid rule to flag so late - but it looked to be very tight ok the initial replay, in which case should be not have let it play on, allowing VAR to do its job if required?

Yes that’s annoying by the linesman
He can’t have been 100% sure then and so you play on and it’s reviewed if we score

Very strange considering that's normally what happens. He looked onside to me.

Officials appear to be Yorkshire folk.

I said exactly this on the Fulham match thread.

If it’s obviously offside flag straight away.
If it’s a close call, play on and review if there’s a goal

Vydra appeared offside to me but, as said, it was tight enough to let play continue and review if necessary

Looks like Dwight has been given licence to play more central role.

He’s spent most of of his time within the width of the 18yrd box

It certainly seems to be getting more from him so far.

Commentators Leeds obsessed.

I’ve just checked on google translate. Meslier is French for tart.

They’ve certainly got some prize halfwits on commentary today

Joey on Clarets Player keeps saying “we” as if he was still with us which is nice to hear

Good defending McNeil

That knee, 100% intentional

Pay back
Justice

That was never a foul

No wonder Leeds have done so well this season. I didn't realise every time one of their players falls over it's a free kick.

I’m trying to weigh up the best option of the BT Leeds bias or Jim Beglin

Gawd almighty that Leeds bird is doing my head in. Sounds like a fantv traineee
