Besides, I don't think we should subject any black players to the pain of playing for Burnley.

Precisely

Imagine not being allowed into your stadium for 14 or 15 months and you FINALLY get back in and boo for 93 minutes.

Twats.

Crazy, there was hardly any actual support for their own team bar a few early ‘come on’ shouts when they tossed the ball into the side of the pitch for the 15th time.

The insinuation that Burnley/Dyche are racist is just lazy and boring at this point. It's been repeatedly debunked, the club have come out strongly in support of the BLM movement. They're just a truly agricultural football side with a tiny squad, much of which they carried along with promotion to the PL where it's known that the ratio of players of colour is smaller in the lower leagues. Almost every player they recruit is also from the Championship.

And some of them even call this place their Happy Place, Burnley really are Everton's bitter and twisted little brother!

Absolutely mind boggled at that last night. I honestly couldn't believe what I was hearing. Utter miserable bastards.

They have secured premier league status again and have an ok manager and team considering the size of the club. Why turn out to watch a game of footy to be that bitter and miserable? Thought Burnley did Ok and the ref did fine too. What actually was there for their fans to boo about, as I am still a bit baffled by it?

Apparently, the West Brom fans got behind their already relegated team last night and enjoyed the game by all accounts.

As other have alluded to. Once Dyche disappears then so will they. Hoorah!

Sounded like they'd let a bunch of farm animals in. Just a constant "oooooo" sound in the background.

Even at 2 and 3 nil down. I mean there has to come a point where you think to yourself "you know what? I'm not sure this booing is worth the effort. It doesn't appear to have had any affect on them so far" surely? But no, they kept it up right to the end.

There was a very small section of boos, which was roundly "applauded out" by the rest of the ground.

But booing all the way through the game? Just wow. Couldn't believe it.

Bizarre, isn't it.

Honestly, the game is wasted on so many of these types of 'fan'.

You cannot go to a match for over a year. In the meantime the world has been turned upside down and we've seen millions die. People have had time to reflect and look at their priorities in life. You'd think those lucky enough to be back in the grounds would be thankful they are still alive. Thankful for the new perspectives surviving a pandemic can bring. You'd think they might be happy to be back and treat the occasion like a carnival. Full of positivity and a new zest for life and for the game. But no ... they prefer to boo for an hour and a half instead.

You cannot help some people.

Just thought, as most of the NW PL clubs threads are either locked or have been locked, that we better keep the other one near the top.

Probably need to so we can keep a 'Burnley watch' and see how the pundits react as they try to batter their way to safety.

Next up Everton, that should be worth watching as they head to Goodison.

Black Bull Nova · « **Reply #214 on:** September 14, 2021, 12:03:14 am »

Yes, had a go again, they are going down, especially when the mid season u turn on tackles (after Ronaldo gets decked probably at Christmas) will see them off

Schmidt · « **Reply #215 on:** September 14, 2021, 04:19:30 am »

I wouldn't get your hopes up, too many teams have a habit of just falling to pieces and not knowing how to get back to producing results. No matter how bad Burnley are they never really capitulate, they keep grinding away with their dogshit play style and eventually start picking up points against the teams that have given up.

Kekule · « **Reply #216 on:** September 16, 2021, 01:55:22 pm »

Dyche has signed up to four more years of kicking the shite out of the opposition.

It's just to protect his value so Everton have to pay them some decent compensation.

Can't wait for these shower to get relegated. Complete and utter irrelevance in this league. Unambitious twats.

Up to their usual tricks against Everton, over-the-top reckless challenge from Tarkowski on Richarlison, with no other intent than to shake-up a more skilled opponent.

The new interpretation of the laws on fouls could have been written by Dyche. I wonder how many more players will end up like Elliot before there's a backlash. Brownhill tried to clatter Elliot in the first 5 minutes of our game against this shower.

I saw the thread and came to write it was premature for Burnley to sack Dyche but realized they actually extended his contract, which is premature as well.

Not at all. Newcastle are a traditionally big team, Burnley are just a turd that won't flush. Disgusting way of playing the game and hopefully once they go down, they never come back up.

Keep praying they'll go but the fuckers never do. We had one bright spot when they did go but the fuckers came back up.

Last year they also had one point from their first five games. But they went on a couple of runs between November and March that kept them up. In 2018/19, they had one point from their first five matches, but that was the season when Huddersfield, Cardiff and Fulham stunk out the gaff and Burnley got away with it thanks to an eight game unbeaten run after Christmas. Whether they actually have enough to go on another run is up for debate. They look even more toothless upfront this season.

Bunch of hypocritical thugs and cheats.

Defenders get away with constantly wrestling more skillful players. Manager always whinging about forwards going down easy against them.

Then their forwards constantly flinging themselves all over the place within crossing distance of the penalty area.

4 or 5 cynical, overly aggressive and reckless challenges a game designed to unsettle the opposition.
