alto ---I enjoy all aspects of football and am of the opinion that working for each other as a team is far more important than individual ability. Our team knows that our strength is through out team work and relies on each player doing his utmost for the team so, yes, I do enjoy that. I don't find the level of the play disappointing because we do what we are good at. Fulham were taking 12 passes to move 10 yards yesterday which is all well and good, however, they were going nowhere and we knew it.
They had a dream start with a goal in the first two minutes, just as Everton had done, however, they could not capitalise on that advantage because we didn't let them.
Tom Heaton was beaten once by the wonder strike and he had only two other saves to make and Tarkowski cleared the one off the line. According to statistics, their keeper did not have a save to make but picked the ball out of the net twice, strange statistic that.
I have watched us play in the days when we played some good football and became champions of England. I never, ever thought that we would play in the Premier League and yet, here we are in our fifth season in the last ten years playing at the top level against teams who have owners who could buy and sell the whole town of Burnley, never mind the Football Club.
So, yes, I do enjoy it and I also enjoy the fact that the infrastructure of the club has improved so much over these last six years since Sean Dyche has been in charge. I know that you don't enjoy it alto, however, we earned the right to be where we are and I support the lads who are trying to keep us up there.
So far this season, I have travelled 5,700 miles to support the Clarets and will travel a further 3,000+ before the season ends. I enjoy the drive up and down, I enjoy the match --win or lose, I enjoy seeing a couple of friends who also travel and between us have over 210 years supporting the Clarets ---it is always a good day out ---as long as you treat it as just a game, which is all it is.
It certainly isn't something which I will ever get uptight about nad I think that this is where we differ alto. However, it would be a boring world if we were all the same, so best of luck with you concerns, but don't let them make you ill --seriously --there are many more things to worry about before football even comes onto the board. Best wishes
