Relegation

[Papa Shango]

On what basis are you thinking they won’t win another game ?

They really are not very good. (Neither are we, or any of the teams down there)

Two games back to back that fell nicely for them. it happens. At the bottom of the table a mini run of decent results can make a huge amount of difference.

I cant see us winning back to back games right now.

have to hope for some favours against Leeds, namely from Palace tomorrow

Burnley showing no signs of a post-dyche slump, our injuries and refs bottling it. It’s an awfully difficult situation to be in this.

I don’t think anyone truly expected us to come away with a win today, I think it was more about being realistic with what games we can / cannot win / must grind out draws in. We’re staring down the barrel here - the players need to bring it now in every single game remaining or we’re finished.

Probably released the shackles. For all the talk of what he's done his teams were very negative. Brave call but looking very much the correct one.

 

[Papa Shango]

Of course they will

Surely this Burnley can't win narrative needs to stop. No one is coming to save us here.

Did you completely ignore the second sentence??

You have to go back 11 league games for our last 3 wins. Before that it was 3 in 17. And now we’re going to magic up 3 from 6? Sorry mate, not a chance.

And 3 wins in a row you get a statue and re-release of Spirit of the Blues. Our standards are so so low but still they fall further.

we’ve had not one favour mate

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Burnley had 4 all season, and have got 2 out the last 3.

A fair point, mate. New manager bounce or coincidence? I truly can’t see us putting any kind of run together.

 

[Colonel Getafe]

We started to lose our identity when we appointed Allarydyce. It turned us into just another club (To be fair we were hovering around being one for ages).

We then completely buried any identity we had left in the summer.

One could argue we lost our identity when we sold to an Iranian businessman who wanted a new toy. Or when we cycled through half dozen managers in as many years.

Then again, we've won bugger all for 27 years, have NSNO as our motto, yet live in a world where we're clinging on to Burnley not getting a result here and there, and praying for a point here and there.

Take your pick, I guess.

 

[Papa Shango]

sure i heard that the other week

I think people are missing the point I am trying to make here!

Points in the bag are the most important thing. They have now got some.

so they will stop winning? lol i’m confused mate

If we get relegated today had nothing to do with it. We have been so poor throughout this season. The errors leading to goals have relegated us. Not this performance.

 

[Uuuuuurgh plop plop]

No mate that'll be gung-ho negative fans like you who've chased manager after manager off every 12-18 months thats led us down this road.

The fans aren't the ones doing the hiring and firing, that's the utterly incompetent board. All the fans are doing is expressing their discontent. It isn't the fans who buy duffers like Sandro Ramirez and offer him triple his wage because that's the only way we can convince the mercenaries to come.

The club is rotten from top to bottom, we learned this when Moshiri came in and exposed Philip Green. Heads need to roll at the very top, the old boys club needs to be dismantled and a whole fresh start needs to be made.

They’ve got the points, they’re above us and we won’t claw the difference back

 

[ToffeeTim]

We will get points just probably not enough. We need 3 wins. I doubt we are good enough.

The Burnley narrative has been tedious. And those who kept repeating it clearly have no clue about football.

I wouldn't put any stock in the motto. It's just words that look nice on a badge!

The big thing with me is people being somewhat OK with us scraping a 2-0 loss against the RS, we have fallen so far.
