There must be easier ways to become a nervous wreck! Thank God's that's over. Hardly time to recover before the next dose! Well done lads--in the end.

Don't like this optimism! Aways feels worse when it goes wrong. And it usually does! I suspect we'll end up with as many victories as defeats which is roughly the situation now.

Tat's what I was thinking! Helps you lift it.

Fair enough too---I keep forgetting that bit! Hard to give up the habits of a lifetime!

First one was surely?

That would depend on reinforcements coming in January. We simply haven't the player resources to sustain a long run-in to promotion as it stands. That, in turn, depends on Venkys so I have zero confidence about that. Our target this season, as has been stated, is to remain in this division. I don't believe that matches JDT's ambition. That makes me a pessimist I suppose but I prefer realist!

He played at least a couple you'd put in the sublime category but i the first half he played one lazy pass on the halfway line straight to their player about 10 yards away with all our defence moving up and no cover. Absolutely horrific. Should have led to a goal. He does this every week and he really has to cut this out of his game.

Huddersfield March 30th 2019. One of 4 teams relegated wth 6 games to go. Burnley set to beat this!

I guess I'm just lamenting the fact that we don't have a central striker. Sammi's goals should be the icing on the cake, not the cake.

This....

He is for us! I was thinking more widely. He definitely should have scored 2, that first chance was a gimme.

Thinking how many he should have got in addition to those he did! He should have been the sensation of the season.

Yes he did, came on late, got injured in the short period he was on and has hardly been seen since. In any case since when was Walsall a Championship team? Not sure what your point is tbh.

2 of 3 usually do though? Seems that way, I haven't checked.

They've beaten it haven't they?

Shouldn't it be "I've never felt less like singing the blues"?

I would prefer to be a yo-yo club than to be in our position. At least it guarantees its future. But as the article says, it does make you wonder what its all about! Maybe in future you just shun the season in the Premiership and return for the promotion season. Saves you a lot of grief and dosh!

Good article on Burnley's problems in the Guardian too! https://www.theguardian.com/football/2023/nov/24/is-the-premier-league-really-the-holy-grail-for-supporters

The gulf between the under-21's and championship football not a reason?

When we signed him and when he first played, some wondered whether he would be good enough. I didn't read what you read.

He's going backwards! From a low base!

Matt Woods?

And Australia were just so utterly professional. Ruthless.

I fear we'll lose this one and the nerves will be jangling again.

Sorry, yes I did. Fixed.
