Burnley did OK - no more than that. In two games they have had two shots. For ninety minutes they keep ten men behind the ball and it makes it very difficult. As a threat though, they don't exist. Watch the highlights and see how many real chances they created. I can understand you all being happy by their performance, they didn't get the expected roll over. Don't get carried away though. If you had come with a positive attitude and tried to get men forward, you may have reaped some rewards.

115 coaches leaving turf moor right now.

Tonights attendance - 28700. LET

Not so much singing, more a low drone of grumbling and snoring, kind of mixed up. If you seriously want a song, me and rev will start you off.

For god's sake, stop talking about penalties. You're making me nervous. I'd been OK up 'til now.

Paul, I said in a post yesterday, that Radio Lancs said the attendance will be restricted to 29000, because of safety measures.

What was the gate, last time we played them? At Ewood.

Nelsen can't replace Todd, he plays alongside him. Short hasn't played since before Xmas and Mokoena isn't much use. Worry again, Jan.

Dickov and Matteo doubtful, while Todd is suspended. Rovers official site That's a blow Todd being suspended. I thought he would miss the Everton game. Amoruso?

You saw my post a few minutes earlier, Dan?

D-Day for Dickov. Lancs Evening Telegraph

Rovers expect to sell all remaining tickets before this evening. Attendance restricted to 29000 because of safety measures. - Radio Lancs.

If you want to post on here, as quite a few Burnley fans have done, then please don't use textspeak - and try to make some kind of point.

You're tempting fate you lot - pack it in.

Yesterday morning we had sold 13000 tickets. By all accounts yesterday was very quiet, so maybe we didn't reach the 17000 mark. Another couple of days of poor sales and we might struggle to reach the 20000 mark.

Good post Tris. The thing is Rovers are in a customer satisfaction business. 1/1.5 hr queues or 90 minute phone bills are avoidable. There are ways to improve the service and just saying "that's the way it is, so what?" really isn't the way to go. I've said a few times the situation is unacceptable - that sounds like it's moaning, it's not. A proper business will look at the problems and deal with them. It's not for the customers to "deal with the problems". What that means in essence, is that waiting times both in a queue outside the ticket office or on the end of a phone line, must be reduced to a reasonable level.

17000 sold by the end of today, with 5000 to go over Sat, Sun and all day Monday. They seem to be shifting 5000 a day, so all should be well. Unless, of course, some gave up and wont come back.

LET report that 13000 tickets sold so far. That's probably a figure from early this morning?

Paul, it's not fair to say the second option is to whinge and agree with the casual support. It doesn't seem unreasonable to say that the current system is acceptable. People are pointing out that they're busting a gut to get a ticket, but can't get through. They can't get to Ewood and can't get through on the phone lines. This can be taken in two ways - either moaning or positive criticism. I prefer to take the second view. Maybe there are plans to improve the situation in future, that's the least I would expect, but at the moment that is only rumour.

No, but we footballed 'em off the park at Ewood.

Hey Waggy, take a bow.

He hasn't posted for three minutes, I reckon he's got through.

What does that make us then, best footballing team in the entire universe?

It's not moaning, mum. It's a fair issue for debate?
