  • Going down with a whimper

    Talk about already on the beach.Disgraceful performances from many players today.They dont give a toss about the club.Bruun Larsen passed to Brighton players 4 times in a row when he came on.Just what do they do down at Gawthorpe?
    They can all go in the Summer as far as I am concerned along with Clueless Cardy.

      Well I?m just back home after what can only be described as inept

      I really don?t mind getting beat with better teams but our downfall is our own making - I?m like a record with a scratch in it we do. Not track runners and the opposition walk through us with ease - it?s the basics of better football and Anthony today on the first goal just let them have it , at this level of football you get punished and we did.

      The second goal well what can I say we decided 2nd half to play all our football in our own third again with very little urgency to get forward and hurt Brighton - I honestly believe we?ve played sideways and backwards so much now that we can?t change it even if we want to - we made substitutes that didn?t change anything just one for one with no plan how to get up the field quickly or get ourselves of our favourite camping spot our own 18 yard box.

      The man in charge as nice as he is is so far out of his depth it?s unbelievable imo anyway

      I cannot and will not watch next season with him in charge - it?s toxic negative and frankly embarrassing - if not now then when are we actually going to have a go at teams we?re down anyway we have nothing to lose and we still play - negative boring football.

      The VAR didn?t help I accept that but I?m just about sick of being served up dross.

        It was obvious to me last year Dave and I said so on numerous occasion and got roasted on here for those comments.We were never fluent going forward even in the Championship under Cardy.It was awful to watch even then but everybody gave him a pass because he got us promotion.I honestly believe he simply got lucky with the defence last year and this season proves it.

            Two goals disallowed by VAR. UN****INBELIEVABLE DECISIONS.

              Todays match felt like a pre season friendly. BHA hardly broke sweet and we look like we were going through the motions

              The fans have had enough, the atmosphere was flat and stands empty. I doubt if there was much more than 13,000 home fans on today.

                  Wish I had BT

                  It?s beyond a joke now -it feels like we don?t even try to win when we already know we are down.

                      I also wished I had mowed the lawn as I intended rather than watch that scoite BC.Then Clueless Cardy comes out after the match and spews out that he cannot criticise his players for lack of effort - talk about deluded.

                        Yesterday I wasted another four hours of my life, in going to Turf Moor to watch some players who were less than interested in winning a game of football, even though their weekly wage is greater than my yearly pension.

                        I would agree that last year we gained promotion playing a very negative game in most matches, but as the Championship players do not have the attacking qualities of the Premier League we did prevail.

                        This season has highligted the ineptitude of Scott Parker as a premier league manager, although his previous tenures also led to his failures but some clubs recognised that and terminated his contract.

                        The board of directors of Burnley Football Club have in my opinion shown a derilection of duty to both the club and the supporters by not addressing the problem which has been obvious all season.

                        Personnally I have taken the decision that I will not be attending Turf Moor again we have a new manager.

                          Haven't seen any of the game and I have no interest in seeking out the 'highlight', so I can't comment on the performance. However I have listened to several podcasts from supporters who were there, and their views were unanimous, it was 'sh1te'. More than one was so upset by what they'd witnessed that I felt they should have been put on suicide watch. Every single one of them wanted Parker gone asap. Every single one of them couldn't wait for the season to end, they doubted there'd be any febrile atmosphere on't Turf or demos against Parker, because for that to happen the fans would have to care, and it's gone beyond that, most fans just don't give a FF any more, they've had enough.

                          Seems to me that the only way to stir Mr Pace into action now is for the fans to vote with their feet. In the PL gate receipts are virtually irrelevant, perhaps 5% of turnover, in the Championship they'll be more like 15% of turnover and if that starts being eaten into significantly, then Mr Pace has problems. Not that he hasn't got more than enough problems anyway, not that he seems to be doing anything about them. Or maybe he is and he's keeping it quiet, him to know and us to find out.

                            Was Alan Pace actually there or has he had enough of Parker's playing style, choosing to stay in Barcelona.
