Did Barton ever play for England?

I can see him beating up a kid, joining some National Front type of group, or bludgeoning a pet dog, but not a sex offender.

175 pages of this thread... imagine how much lower that would be if we could only state fact!

For what it's worth, Daniel Sturridge, and most other pundits, are absolute dirge. I find football on TV immeasurably better on mute. I don't have someone at Ewood or wherever else I end up in person telling me what I just saw, why do I need it for watching it on TV? Half of it is just pandering for social media clicks later... G-Nev OUTRAGED by VAR call... Roy Keane TEARS INTO West Ham left back... Micah Richards AMAZED by concept of gravity. Get it all to launched into orbit.

Burnley undone by one quality cross at home to Palace tonight. Unlike last time under Kompany, there looks a definite lack of quality throughout their team for coping with the Premier League. 5 defeats on the bounce.

With Forest winning and Leeds currently winning, there’s now a 4 point gap to safety. Looking good. I mean, er, grim. 🙂

Plenty of empty seats at the Dingle Dome tonight..lets hope Newcastle make it 6 losses on the bounce come Saturday.All crying they want Parker out now.

Down ya come inbreads!🤣

Liverpool currently losing 1-0 at home to Sunderland.

Slot starting to push his luck a bit.

Tosin may have left Rovers a while ago but there's still a bit of us in him.

They got away with it to some extent with another lateish goal.

1-1.

Isidor was clean through from the half way line in injury time but failed to convert the winner for Sunderland.

Sunderland the better team at Anfield. Liverpool got lucky again..

Good job Cheisa chased all the way back otherwise its a defeat

[Upside Down]

How can Brighton Villa be such a boring game when it's 4-3 in injury time? Both teams playing as though they're winning 6-0.

Premier League football is absolutely gash. If this is what had been served up to me as a kid then there's no way I would have been so fanatical about it.

Whether it lack of form, a lack of intensity, or innumerable other scenarios it's hard to pinpoint what Liverpool are doing wrong as seemingly every game it's something new. Against PSV last week they were woefully lazy, yet last night it was van Dijk making 2 mistakes in short time that cost them a goal. Slot has to fix it, but I think he's struggling too. 

What I see is a team that isn't working hard without the ball, and a team that's ponderous with it. For many minutes last night with Liverpool in possession is was like watching a handball match. They kept the ball for long periods passing it to the middle, out wide, then back to the middle again without ever getting the ball into the box. It's so easy to defend against. Last season Diaz and Nunez offered lots of running off the ball, but the midfield behind them did too and the personnel there has not changed, so why is it so bad?  

I can't see an upturn anytime soon. Slot needs to go back to early Klopp and go for 5-4 wins rather than last season's suffocation tactics.

Slot's tactics are slower than Klopp. He doesn't want to press high from minute 1. They are playing less long balls than last season and want to the ball more at the back. 

Missing Trent at right back cos Frimpony hasn't been fit enough. 

Maybe he needs to play Isak and Etketie together up front. Writz just off them.

I was hoping our long time Burnley contributors would come on at some point and give us the lowdown on this seasons going on at Turf Moor. They were on here more than I was last season, almost on a daily basis. What can possibly have gone wrong ?

I remember they got in a little huff when I pointed that out to them last year. It was pretty funny.

Speaking of The Dingles, one of their lads is now banned for 4 games for spitting at fans.

I wonder what the ban would’ve been if a fan had spat at him.
