Burnley FC and Sport
Burnley v Luton in a couple of hours. But gutted about this one, it was moved from Saturday to the Monday, so I had to cancel my trip, then moved to Friday - which meant I could have attended after all. ⚽️
Villa 3-2 Burnley. Late penalty by Villa to secure the win, but a strong performance from the mighty Clarets. Still think we’ll go down, but at least it will be fighting. ⚽️
Burnley 0-2 Liverpool. Not unexpected, but we could have made life a lot more difficult for them at times. ⚽️
Eddie Howe will be sacked in January, I feel. ⚽️
Fulham 0-2 Burnley. Did not see that coming. ⚽️
Absolutely bullied by Everton. ⚽️
Tough game ahead for the Clarets. Can’t see a win on the cards, Dyche teams are notoriously stubborn. ⚽️
Brighton 1-1 Burnley. Good point, backs to the wall performance against a strong team. James Trafford a colossus. ⚽️
Brighton 0-1 Burnley at half-time. Tough, tough, game but we’re due some fortune. ⚽️
I never doubted you for a moment Burnley. ⚽️❤️
Burnley 2-0 Sheff Utd H/T. Utd down to ten men. Don’t mess this up Clarets!⚽️
A better performance by Burnley, but still three conceded. ⚽️
Premier League have moved the Burnley game I booked to attend, which has irritated me no end. ⚽️
Hoping for a first point or three for the mighty Clarets today. ⚽️
Seeing the state of that England squad, it’s no wonder I’ve lost interest in international footy. ⚽️
Goodness knows, I’ve seen some rough times at the Turf over the seasons - I’ve earned basking in a bit of reflected glory. ⚽️📺
Also finished ‘Mission to Burnley’ documenting the fall and rise of my beloved Clarets. While I’m incredibly happy that I’ve made rural Ireland my home, I do feel a little torn that I’m not around to soak in the feel-good atmosphere around the town that comes with the football team doing well. 📺⚽️
The excitement is building as Burnley’s return to the Premier League begins with the visit of Man City tonight. I am positively bubbling over with joy. ⚽️
Decided to bite the bullet and book a ticket for a Burnley game. Most home games are sold out already, but I found a solitary ticket for Luton in January. Every time I book for a Prem game, some catastrophic event happens - so if some new pandemic happens around Christmas time ‘my bad’. ⚽️
One of the all-time classic penalty shootouts. ⚽️
