So are you saying his time is up , half way in to his first season and in a play off position ? I was responding to a poster who said it was. -

If a manager who in the first half of his first season has the club in a play off position has "failed" and his time is up, then the club is unmanageable. People like you just have a massive sense of entitlement, are unable to accept that there will always be bad days, and would probably be best advised to take up something else in your life. -

His "cracker" was going wide until it deflected off one of our players. He's not as good as Ledson. -

Only if he chooses to. His job is safe with the FA. -

He's always walked around the pitch because he finds space that way - then he puts on the turbo chargers with the ball at his feet. One of the 2 or 3 greatest players of all time. -

The Burnley Messi has just scored a cracker. -

Based on what happened at West Ham our players could teach Brazil something about taking penalties. -

Like Teddy Sheringham and Peter Crouch, not dissimilar players with lengthy careers, he has the advantage that he didn't have any pace to lose. -

He was the greatest player in the era in which he played - and I don't think you can ask any more than that. -

Robson had a good record for the most part (1988 Euros were a disaster and we failed to qualify in 1984) but definitely benefited from having the assistance of Don Howe who was an outstanding organiser. -

Do you really believe that there won't have been press scrutiny of Southgate ? The reason you haven't read anything is because unlike some of his predecessors he hasn't behaved in a way which would generate scandals. The attitude of the players and the squad unity under his management is down to Southgate's skillful management and nothing to do with "luck". -

Disappointing performance but the essential thing is to get through the qualifying round and we would have to lose to Wales by a 4 goal margin not to do so, so job done. -

Just a week ago some of us were celebrating England winning the T20 Cricket World Cup ! Not much disappointment there. England struggled so badly in the last football World Cup they got to the semi-final. -

Er no, Burnley were champions and their fans had the experience of supporting the champions. -

As a matter of fact they did experience that in 1921 and 1960. -

To date Adam Wharton has played 45 minutes or more in 7 Championship games, of which only 1 - the game against Coventry- has been against a team currently in the top half of the table, so I think he is being protected and being used against weaker teams. No doubt that will change when the manager and coaching staff think the time is right. -

If you re-read my post I said "one of the best" which is not the same as best. -

No. I'm taking a view on the season as a whole - 3rd in the league, through to the 4th round of the Carabao Cup, excellent group of young players who are being tied down to lengthy contracts. Keeping things in perspective is a big help. -

We're having one of our best seasons in years - I'm happy.
