Wing Wizard Windy Miller Posted July 29, 2022 Posted July 29, 2022 Pains me to say it but Burnley have come out flying. Look streets ahead of Huddersfield. Quote

Backroom Tom Posted July 29, 2022 Backroom Posted July 29, 2022 Burnley annoyingly good so far Anyone notice the ref let Burnley take a free kick for offside a good 10 yards inside the opposition half Quote
ItsRoverZ Posted July 29, 2022 Posted July 29, 2022 Don't know if it's because Huddersfield are that bad or Burnley are that good ...Burnley could be 2 or 3 up Quote
Wing Wizard Windy Miller Posted July 29, 2022 Posted July 29, 2022 (edited) Burnley look like a side that have brought players in early and integrated them quickly. Huddersfield look like a side hoping to be stronger come the end of August 🤔 Edited July 29, 2022 by Wing Wizard Windy Miller Quote
Backroom Tom Posted July 29, 2022 Backroom Posted July 29, 2022 Burnley utterly dominant that half, with is doubly impressive when you realise they’ve played it with 10 players and some lad from the pub up front Quote
Hasta Posted July 29, 2022 Posted July 29, 2022 Huddersfield bad but Burnley looking good. It’s only a bad final ball or finish stopping this being a rout so far. Quote
bazza Posted July 29, 2022 Posted July 29, 2022 Watford and Burnley for automatic. Boro, Sheff Utd, WBA and Norwich for play-offs. Quote
Guest Posted July 29, 2022 Posted July 29, 2022 Huddersfield my tip to go down, absolutely terrible. Quote

Exiled_Rover Posted July 29, 2022 Posted July 29, 2022 Jekyll and Hyde performance that from Burnley. First half looked like they were going to win the league at a canter. Second half looked like mid table plodders. 1 Quote
rigger Posted July 29, 2022 Posted July 29, 2022 Any win for the Rovers tomorrow, and we go above Burnley. 1 Quote
Mattyblue Posted July 30, 2022 Posted July 30, 2022 It was shit or bust for Hudds last season by the looks of it. Now with a rookie manager in situ as well, doesn’t bode well. Quote

Since the change I can only think of one instance when it has happened at Ewood. Our supporters went mad at the referee but on this occasion he was totally correct. Quote

Assume this means that if an offside player doesn't touch the ball, then they are not offside? Quote
Upside Down Posted July 30, 2022 Posted July 30, 2022 I thought you had to have intent to play the ball or be involved in play. Whatever it is its total bollocks. You're either onside or you're not in my opinion. 1 Quote

It depends if they are involved in play or involved with another player in which you don't always have to touch the ball. Gaining an advantage is the consideration. Quote

That's one hell of a walk. Most Briggers would catch the train to Mill Hill or get the Premier coach or BBMS double decker. My mate, Frank, who supported Rovers from 1945 to 2020 (he died) once caught the bus from Hoghton and got off at The Fieldens Arms, Feniscowles to "quickly and easily" walk from there along Livesey Branch Road. Ha! He didn't realise how long Livesey Branch Road was and got on the ground 20 minutes after kick-off. Quote

Ha! He didn't realise how long Livesey Branch Road was and got on the ground 20 minutes after kick-off. It was simple Bazza. In the 30s my grandad had enough spare cash for either the BBMS bus or the ticket in to the game, but not both. So he walked. The first time I went to Ewood, some time in the early 60s, it was on the BBMS bus with my uncle. He lived in a house on Station Road right next to the bus depot. It was the first time I had stayed away from home in the country and the first time I had slept with street lights. 1 Quote
