You have to be impressed with how solid Burnley are.

On Wednesday if we play like this we will have chances to score multiple goals I have no doubt

Keeper situation needs attention. Collins needs a confidence boost or Wilson needs to come in.

But overall we ain't that bad as 3/4 losses suggests and wednesday Vs pompey is a massive game for us.

Lessons learned for next season:
1) Get a new keeper in the summer
2) Start next season strong. No more shitty starts.
3) Get defensive reinforcements
4) Ship out deadwood

probably more lessons as well

Fair play lads. No complaints from me, gave it their all.

Play like that rest of the season and we’ll be in the playoffs.

Really? We were poor second half I thought

 

[Nick]

Their players with the ref they knew from the off.

 

[sw88]

Lamps just get a red from the ref?

 

[The Nomad]

Burnley are a poor side to be up top. But they’re playing a tactical game.

Compared to Leeds and Sheff United they’ve looked poor

They do the dark arts well. Leeds and Sheff Utd are far better footballing sides.

 

[Tommo1993]

We beat ourselves.

 

[Nick]

Really? We were poor second half I thought

Yeah but you thought the ref was ok so I'm not sure you thoughts are relevant.

 

[Nuskyblue]

We've been pretty poor second half,

Burnley killed the game by feigning injury and taking about a day for every throw in, corner and goal kick. We understandably couldn't get going.

The ref should have booked at least one off them for time wasting. Anthony was taking a minute for each corner

No chance of winning them without Dovin. The Blunts game has killed us.

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

Fuck sake Lamps

 

[jordan210]

I know we moan about refs a lot but that was shocking. There constant fouls and descent and nothing

 

[Briles]

I wouldn’t slate him if he just did the basics right. He can’t even do that. He’s a paid professional. Not some amateur in a recreational league.

So? He's now our number 1, what is slating him going to do exactly?

 

[SIR ERNIE]

2 gift goals

 

[Jamesimus]

Lacked a bit of quality compared to the opposition for sure . Can’t fault the effort though. Most of the teams we have left to play are far more equal in terms of quality.

 

[Shannerz]

What a fucking horrible team they are.

It'll probably be enough to get them promoted, but fucking hell, you need a damn sight more than that in the Premier League.

The last two (for different reasons) have shown we're not at the level to make a serious bid for promotion yet.

 

[RegTheDonk]

Just frustrating. Bad defending then major cock up and we end up with nothing.

 

[Evo1883]

They are now top of the league , thats how shit they are

 

[Jamesimus]

No chance of winning them without Dovin. The Blunts game has killed us.

Im trying to conveniently ignore that Dovin is injured.

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

Annoying but maybe if west brom lose not a car crash

 

[DT-R]

We've been pretty poor second half,

Just lacking quality. Same as the blades game. Seen plenty of possession, just done nothing with it. That said though, it must be sooooo boring being a Burnley fan. They're awful. So boring to watch. Score early, park the bus. Winning or not, I'd be fuming to pay to watch that week in week out. The fact they're top of the league just proves how dog shit this league actually is this year.

Come on Watford. This could yet be an ok weekend for us

 

[Garlana86]

It's hard enough to beat teams like that, but we literally gave them two goals, we just don't have the discipline right now to be a promotion contender.

 

[steve cooper]

If Campbell hadn't have done Dovin we would probably have won that. It will be justice if Sheff U miss out by 1 point and get beaten in the playoffs

 

[Tommo1993]

Good on Lampard I say. These officials need it pointing out how poor they are. It gets worse and worse.

 

[Jamesimus]

Really? We were poor second half I thought

Also, you have some absolutely bat shit opinions way more often than me so I’ll trust my own judgement here

 

[DT-R]

Yup! Only thing he's not bottled all game! Absolutely fucking disgusting showing from.the ref today

[covcity4life]

Hopefully Collins is getting every possible calamity goal out the way before playoffs start?

Things can only get betterrrrr

 

[stupot07]

Another 2 goals conceded with 4 at the back.

 

[SkyBlueAussie]

Playing like that, Burnley will be back down in the Championship next season, if they even get promoted, that is.
The Premiership teams will eat them alive.

 

[Paul Anthony]

We deserved something out of that. We played well for the most part, caused them problems.

Unfortunately, we caused ourselves problems too. And it cost us the game.

Burnley, honestly rotten, horrible team. Horrible football, boring really. Ref fell for every single trick they had. I think we know who he had his money on today.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

He didn’t improve
5 mins added is a fuckin disgrace as is not sending meljbri off for a second yellow
Should have had a point
Bobby was magnificent
They are the worst of the top 3 hopefully meet in the play off final

He said to mark his words lampard would be a disaster

 

[steve101]

Such an annoying watch. Multiple petty fouls not addressed by a shocking referee. Time wasting. Rub of the green not our way (apart from our goal). All the second balls fell their way. And then giving them a goal that wouldn't look out of place in an U7's match.

 

[Para1140]

Are you sure it was Lampard. Wright went up said something to the ref and the ref then pulled a red out. I hope your correct and it was Lampard and not Wright
