Weird reactions by some of their fans who have reacted like they've just signed Salah, much to the bemusement of their more able minded cousins.

I believe it's the nous he brings to them.  He's won this league with them twice (promoted three times) and he'll play a big role in getting them over the line this year.  He was a massive influence on their younger players last time, so I'm told. He's also a massive shithouse, something all the best teams have in their locker.

I think it's the Dingles' day tomorrow, Rovers just don't have what it takes.

Are we 💯 that Cantwell is out? 

I'm still hoping he's available

Stop fretting, Fretters.

We are due a bit of luck against that lot and maybe tomorrow will be our day where everything we hit goes in.
 

Every now and again a team has a stinker from absolutely nowhere (Exhibit A - Celtic yesterday). Burnley are due a cuffing off someone, so why not us?

[Mattyblue]

Don’t fret, he’s a Dingle, only ever two posts since joining and both singing the praises of that lot.

We're gonna take the roof off tomorrow. 

If that ball crosses that line that'll rattle em.

Nonsense, I'm just a realist.  We haven't got close to beating the DIngles for almost 15 years now and it was only through a freak worldie that we scored our first goal in a decade against them.

I'm just trying to temper expectations. I think we're all getting a bit too excited after scraping into the top six. Burnley are still way ahead of us, as Mowbray once said.

Leeds are top and we snuffed them out both away and at home. 

We arent without determination.  Burnley won't know what's hit them tomorrow and will expect to walk over us. All about to change and I'll eat my words come tomorrow tea time if that's not true.

I’d be delighted with that. Big Mak with a Paneka in front of the Darwen End. Celebrates by running to Ashley Barnes and absolutely fucking lamping him.

[Mattyblue]

Just two posts 6 months apart, both bigging up that lot, but if you say so.

Rovers fans ‘liking’ a post by a Dingle on how shit Rovers are compared to the Dingles.
 

Have some self-respect 😉

[neophox]

Burnley acting fast signing Barnes... hopeful age has caught him up...

Just missing Trav for added shithousery and his play of course I think we have alot about us and enough to draw of bag a win. We all know we are short on fire power but they've been making it happen even when we thought we were out of it. 

Gotta keep the faith

No Ohashi or Cantwell in the line up then either and we played with 10 men from 57 minutes, still got a result.

Stop peddling this negativity.

Best chance to beat these c***s in years! COYB

Time to restore the Pride of Lancashire back to its rightful place 🌹

I agree, we still lost to millwall with a pretty full squad.

 

There was no guarantees of winning no matter who we had in the squad.

 

Trust in eustace he's got a 100% unbeaten record against Burnley so far ;)

Use the tactics that made sure we win. That's all that matters. It's can be the most boring game as long as we beat those dingles.

Obviously. But we will need to score to win.

Is that up to you to do? Way ahead of us? But for a wrong decision at your place we would have won.

Come out of the closet Dingle.

This screams written with six fingers….

Come on Fretters - just admit you are here on the wind up, did you really register before the last game and stay waiting for your chance but Weimann ruined it last time out?

They are very solid and hardly concede, will be a really tough game.

We have to score the first goal for me tomorrow to get something from the game.

I'd take a goal in the first half and shut them down in the second. I don't think my nails will take it if we score early on lol

We held Leeds but don’t have what it takes to beat dingles at home ? Really ?

With ten men as well!

So looking at all the evidence before us. We can have them over if we play like we have been during our good run of form.
