Regarding the Celtic game, Shamrock Rovers played a mainly under 19 team with a few trial players against a full strength Celtic side as we had just played a Europa League qualifier 48hrs previous and our first team was rested. I feel this coming Friday we will field a similar team as we are playing in the 2nd qualifying round in Dublin 24 hrs before the Burnley game.

Thanks for the info Dubhoop, much appreciated :)

Glad I didn't spend money on flights and game tickets that say we are playing Shamrock when it's Shamshamrock rovers.
It's a Shame for those who have.

Looks like D4 can smile I

Looks like we are the Brady Bunch.

"Keep off the taxi doors Hendo!" Barnes cheekily shouted. :D

Talking to two old friends of mine at Turf Moor yesterday and they have just paid the thick end of a grand to go over for the friendlies! :?

Trade Descriptions Act probably doesn't apply there either! We'd better score 10 and not lose anyone to heroic tacklers making a name for themselves.

No waffle lads came the reply. It's Brussel sprouts make me deliver!

[Altobelli]

In that picture it looks like D4 has had a blue rinse.

[oldcolner]

First game tomorrow, looking forward to seeing the line ups.

Has D4 been out with Dolly Blue?

[oldcolner]

Sean watched the real Shamrock lose 3-2 in the Europa League last night and the Shamshamrock game is not live on Clarets player tonight.

Match thread
https://www.burnleyfootballclub.com/matches/fixtures/first-team/2017182/july/shamrock-rovers-vs-burnley/

[oldcolner]

Walters scores after 9 mins 0-1

[oldcolner]

Walters substituted after 34 mins and Aygei on still 0-1 so not doing a Celtic.

[oldcolner]

Aygei has two shots saved Gray missed a point blank header and has a shot saved.
0-1 at half time.

[oldcolner]

Ashley controls a long ball from Lowton and curls one in, then Brady gets one following good work by Ward, so after 71 mins it's 0-3

[oldcolner]

Vokes deflects a Hendricks shot for number 4. I post the screenshot showing wrong scorers to the text.5430

That's how it ends.

[exilecanada]

I trust Walters substitution was a scheduled replacement, not an injury such as a hammy or the dreaded knee knack?

:mad:

[oldcolner]

It seems he is ok. There is now a write up of the game on the thread I posted earlier.

[oldcolner]

Burnley (first half): Heaton, Darikwa, Tarkowski, Mee, Taylor, Defour, Cork, O'Neill, Gudmundsson, Walters (Agyei 34), Gray.

Burnley (second half): Pope, Lowton, Anderson, K Long, Ward, Ulvestad (Agyei 78), Westwood, Hendrick, Brady, Vokes, Barnes (C Long 85).

[The Bedlington Terrier]

I'd forgotten we still have Ulvestad! :(

I think Freddie and Chris Long could be being replaced - SOON! :s

[sinkov]

I'd forgotten about Tom Anderson as well, it seems years since I first saw him in pre-season friendlies, in fact it IS years since I first saw him in pre season friendlies, but he's yet to progress beyond them. No idea how old he is now, he must be Burnley's oldest ****ager, surely it's too late for him to make the breakthrough now, he must be destined for D1/D2 at best.

Quote of the game
"he's obviously finished his homework, and his mums let him play!" when one of the shamrock subs came on!
