[Archived] Burnley Relegation Watch

[rovgers]

The FA are going to investigate the coin throwing incident, thankfully the dingles won't have any points taken off them.

Can you imagine if that happened, we would never hear the end of it!

Dingles would be going for years saying "we only went down because of them points they took off us"

Hopefully we can say, they went down because we took 6 points off them!

[Hughesy]

If they hadnt had United at home in the 1st 4 games then they would probably have 3 points less right now too! Best time to get United at home is early on.

I also doubt Everton would lose at Turd now either.

No No No! get them down as soon as possible

[Hughesy]

Hopefully the picture after Sunday – 6 games left/ 18 points to play for

Pompey – 28 points behind

Burnley – 17 points behind

Hull – 14 points, maybe 17

I was having a chat with a mate on Saturday who lives in Accy and he was commenting on the distinct lack of burnley shirts and car stickers around the place since the predictable slump started.

I must admit to noticing the same in burnley also, gone are shirts, gone are the flag and hats, and everyone is once again wondering around with worried, defeated looks on there faces.

DON’T YOU JUST LOVE IT

Yeah we were on about this a few weeks ago too. Still see more Shirts than you use to, but the mini kits from cars & badges seem to of disappeared. Same with the cockyness that some dingles at work had, its gone from 'we are x number of points infront of you' to nothing!

Just dont lose on Sunday boys - thats all that matters.....Beat them and Fantastic, it will be great!

Couldn't agree more, I'd take a draw now, as that’s another nail in the coffin and we’d still hold 30+yrs bragging rights.

their Dad's step-sister's brother's nephew

you mean their mum?

[Gav]

Bizarre how 37000 'fans' can make it to see a team that their Dad's step-sister's brother's nephew supports

Any excuse to escape the slums for a day.....

[Hughesy]

We should use the 'and thats a fact' song on sunday - you can put whatever you want with it easily!

"YOUR TOWN IS SH!T, AND THATS A FACT"

"YOUR TEAM IS SH!T, AND THATS A FACT"

"YOUR MANAGERS SH!T, AND THATS A FACT"

"YOUR GOING DOWN, AND THATS A FACT"

"31 YEARS, AND THATS A FACT"

The gap is closing............between Burnley and Accrington Stanley.

If we beat them, then the hill trolls will lose all hope, and it'll be a long march back to the lower divisions. We simply have to win. A draw would be OK, but another 5-0 or whatever will be orgasmic. The fact Laws' position is already under scrutiny shows that there is a measure of anxiety and worry about their future in this division. If he does go, in the next 12 months, I'd love it if Paul Ince took over.

[USABlue]

You know GAv, a draw will make them happy. Look how long they banged on about scoring a goal against us when Hydes cross floated over Friedels head. Can you imagine the elation if they hold us to a point. NO we can't be having that. Win win win

[dazmaz]

as it stands a win for us tomorrow puts us 10th

EDIT: and just 4 points behind brum

EDIT: make that 3 as arse have scored

EDIT: and back up to 4

[Blue blood]

Surely the game is up for Burnley now. This was their most winnable home game, and with City, Liverpool and Tottenham still to come to the Turd it's hard to see where their next points will come from.

The bad news is their away fixtures aren't too bad, Hull, Sunderland and Birmingham, but the good news is their away form is. Home advantage for Hull, whilst Sunderland are on a bit of a run at the mo, and Brum aren't a bad team - coupled with their hard home games feasibly Bunrley could get no more points this season.

[joey_big_nose]

Utterly terrible today. Have to be down I think. Laws looks clueless. Tactically they were atrocious today.

[berkshireblue]

back under the rock whence they came

cheerio dingles see you in 10 plus years

41 years and counting

[DE.]

There's no way they'll stay up with Laws in charge. They were abysmal today in the most important match of their premiership season. If they can't get motivated for today's match, what hope have they for any other match?

[deryck guyler's spoon]

In the words of Mark Nicholas - "goonnnne!"

[philipl]

Thanks to the Guardian minute-by-minute for that one.

Being a Burnley player, I bet the first thing which sprang to mind was:

7 letters - related

[Billy Castell]

They're going down after today. Any confidence must have gone after we got them licked at their turnip field of a stadium. I just can't see them doing enough to stay up.

[DE.]

Apart from our dire shocking performance.

I actually found the

'We're having a party, Burnleys down!

We're having a party, Burnleys down'

chant most hurtfull.

I'd give anything to beat them, just once! :blue:

awww, you almost feel sorry for them.

almost.
