    I've heard our Stewards can be well over the top with fans but generally our own, I think you may have been correct saying they were more robust after Hanover, but its the Police who were to blame for their bad handling of the situation and obviously the Stewards have had a word in their ear, pathetic the flag being taken from the kid, IDWT is correct, tell the Club, if nothing is done nothing will alter for the best, enjoy your season with Pulis if possible falla

    Cheers Altobelli - for me Pulis does a brilliant job with a threadbare squad which clearly needs investment in certain positions. At the end of the day - football is about getting three points.

    Always liked coming to Burnley - good laugh at the cricket club - with both sets of supporters - good local lads and hope you have a good season.

    PS - hope you stuff the cockneys again!

    I think we're much too stationary and sluggish near goal....the Hendrick shot - he has 3 burnley players in front of him - the same 3 that were there when Cork got the ball from the throw in....two of which were caught offside when Brom pushed out together when Hendrick received the ball - because they were all stood still just Waiting for a pass - none of them making a move - and nobody thinking....they should've beeen darting all over the place - confusing the Brom defence...but no - so there's Hendrick is in space and with nothing else on offer - takes a wild shot - what a waste.
    And another - the ball is floated nicely upfield to Vokes....who heads it down to Gudmundsson - Defour is also up there and has seen the move - he's stood to the right side and in line with Guds - so he should making a run toward the box as soon as he sees the ball hit Vokes's head or earlier - so that when Guds gets the ball he has the choice - but as he didn't and there wasn't...was just another wild shot...and more waste.
    Mee's header - how did he miss...looks like he was held a little to me...so couldn't get over the ball and make a better connection..but he didn't complain any....so means nothing.
    The Goal....Mee doesn't get the ball...is headed on from a Brom player to Kanu - though Mee was quickly back onto Kanu but slowed his run when he saw Ward make the move to get the ball - but Ward wasn't committed enough and so completely miss timed it....so a pointless move - he was better to hold back and let Mee move on Kanu then close in with Tarks to shut Kanu out...so then it was Tarks that was left alone clean up - but he'd also hesitated when he saw Ward move on Kanu - so that when Kanu won it and was on the run....Tark he found himself behind, without a sliding tackle...even - was a total mess, a complete lack of thought and lack of communication....Imho.

    Cheers.

You need to blame your own lot for not opening us up! Football is about winning and if you want end to end stuff with loads of mistakes then perhaps you need to go to Blackburn!

    Woods was with us before he went to Leeds and although he was average at best, he certainly was not premiership and had little grace or creativity but best of luck as a good lad!

    Your stewards were disgraceful on Saturday, and acted like little hittlers - perhaps trying to get tough after the Germans but man handling old guys and taking an Egyptian flag off some kids was disgraceful.
    Your fans were lucky ! A dozen or so of our fans were ejected yesterday in connection with the hanover game.. Our policing and stewarding has been an utter joke for years.All the best for the season,one of the better clubs in the prem.. They will probably be charged for bieng hit on the head by a seat thus causing criminal damage to the seat after it had nearly broke some phuckers skull.
