Tackles go in injuries happen. Marker was a genuine player. United and Ferguson at the time only complained about what happened to them. He is probably 1 of 100s of sporting injuries. Believe it or not football is a contact sport and injuries happen. I know for a fact if our players aren’t getting stuck in then I feel their not trying. He got injured united complained what’s new. It’s mans game apparently. Nothing wrong with marker or marker type players. If united don’t want player to get injured don’t play them.

If his attitude wasn’t right would Mowbray play him?

On for the 1.5 per game and an 8th/9th finish. Winning ugly is part of the game and I’d take that every week. Three really stinker games coming up and we have breathing space. COYB

I agree mid table is a more tha acceptable assumption but this league is unbelievable inconsistent in the results it produces. Rotherham beat derby who look excellent against us. Boro lose against Norwich who have been poor. Couple that with questionable referring decisions on a regular basis and it is not beyond the realms of possibility that with a little sprinkling of fortune a play off place is achievable. This however can be applied to most of the division and has you said mid table is more likely.

That final paragraph is a great overall analysis and just about sums everything up. No extra needed

I’m not sure why Palmer is picked over Rothwell who is a better all round player

Sorry Stuart I wouldn’t give opinion without observation. So yes I watched the game. However the great thing about football and this board is we can watch the same thing and see it differently. However the one thing we all agree on what a great point and I’d have taken that whichever way we got it.

You are just so wrong. I apologise if that appears critical but sometimes you have to do the dirty bits and just accept it. There will never be a game where the opposition doesn’t have chances but none of tonight has been back to the walls hang on stuff. Mine is an opinion but the word I would use is professional

Sometimes you just have to admire strong organised defence and that doesn’t happen with strangers

I’m not sure what the negativity is for. Defensively we appear sound . Can’t be matching everyone attacking wise every game. Their a good team. We’re look solid. I’ll regret this if they score a few.

After yesterday’s last minute equaliser I needed a pick me up. Having seen the whole game Burnley can’t defend as a unit and lack anything going forward just appalling. These are opinions. We are now everything they aren’t. Organised, defence is a team thing. Committed that’s a dressing room thing. Confident that’s a winning thing. will they get relegated? Let’s hope so because if they do we will be more than a match for what I’ve just seen

But at this moment you’ve got to love him.

I’m not sure what the point of this Dack criticism is. I go to work and do my job. I finish work and relax. He’s not in the squad for today for whatever reason and therefore he’s not in work ergo he can relax. I suggest the day your work colleagues or others( supporters) start to tell you what you can and can’t do in your own time is the day you move on. In particular and hypocritically the criticism is levelled from people on the internet commenting on football rather than preparing in a professional manner for work tomorrow.

Then we’ll have to go there and win (We seem to be getting better at it). Is it 2 defeats in 40? Not big on Saturday night research but big on optimism or misplaced belief take your pick. COYB

Now that’s the attitude we like. Glass full
