View from a Burnley fan

[Bruce Wayne]

Had a good chat with a Burnley fan earlier (supplier to work) this is what he said:

• Burnley had been the bogey team to the Prem by being hard to beat playing a rigid "break me down" tactics
• Got into Europe comfortably by playing solid tactics
• Has never seen Burnley beaten so easily in years as at Bramall Lane last Saturday
• Has never seen such "total football tactics" as we played - was blown away by the overlaods and attacking CB's
• Said he had heard about it prior but didn't really think it would be a problem!!
• Reckons Wilder is a genius and Dyche has been found out
• Thinks we will be top 8 if not top 6

Best quote was - It's 89 minutes, you are 3-0 up and your CB is going down the wing!! WTF

Burnley lads were sound on the train

"Thinks we will be top 8 if not top 6"

I wholeheartedly agree. It is there for the taking and these boys look very much at home in this league.

They were sound in the pub after too!

I had a chat with a few before the game and they were great lads

When the camera panned across the away end last Saturday this is what you saw...

A colleague at work is an avid Claret. As he was just about to trot out “the worst performance of the season” drivel, I mouthed his every word whilst rolling my eye’s. He then cracked a smile and realised he’d turned into one of those excuse ridden Prem fans he so despised.

This one sentence sums up everything I love about our team right now.

It's 89 minutes, you are 3-0 up and your CB is going down the wing!!

Truly amazing! Thanks for sharing.

It's like the Arsenal match. Second half they had most of the possession and I'm shouting at Wilder to bring Jags on to see the game out.

What does he do? Brings on Billy and McBurnie.

Shows how much I know.

Bosom Buddies since the iconic game Burnley v Hull City - has everyone forgotten!!
