I will be there. Mad, eh?
Expecting nothing at all, but hoping that sh1tty Scotty Parker only wants to win 1-0 or 2-0 at worst. Last time I was there Rowan Vine scored my all time fave QPR goal running the length of the pitch to shoot into an empty goal because Gabor Kiraly with his baggy jogging bottoms was up for a last minute corner to try to equalise.
No Frey bad, no Colback bad, no Paal - hooray!
Just dreading the next "minor" calf problem to be announced with the team news.
2-0 them. Promise from us, but ultimately huff and puff with no attacking threat whatsoever.
The football will ruin a good weekend away as per... |  |

Cook, JCS and Nardi have been immense.
The rest, not so much.
It’s basically like the Ainsworth game again.
I know he’s playing out of position but if we really did sign Ashby instead of Hayden that has to be the stupidest decision of all time |  | | |

Celar actually received a pass without losing it, and the commentator made it sound like he scored a brace out there |  | | |

Outside of sideways passes between the back 4 have we strung more than 3 passes together?
Genuine question!
The 'quality' of our 'football' is abysmal. Lower table League 1 level. |
Agreed, with the exception of the 3 centre backs who at least are throwing everything away from the goal.
We literally cannot string 2 passes together outside of our own box. |  |

They've had nine bloody corners |
11 now. They need to work on those a bit. |  | | |

23% possession… great to get to HT no losing but I can’t see us surviving another half of that | | | |

although I am loathe to admit it.... I have to say we really miss Willock.
Okay, Hayden too, but its surprising how 3 newer players ( Anderseen, Dembele and Saito) haven't really been able to fill his boots.
Willock annoyed me don't get me wrong, but our weekly performance goes to show, how we miss him a bit. |

He's not exactly tearing it up at Cardiff though. We certainly miss prime Willock. | | | |

Fck my arse and call me Bunty.
Just saw the stats: 23 clearances on our part 23% possesion and they fired in 27 crosses in the first half.
We're going to win this. It is the way of our people. |  |

Well whatever happens I can say that defensive performance was on par with anything we did last season it was not only solid but in some cases epic.
Cook and JCS have been fantastic and Smyth and both Saito and Smyth have tracked back really well to protect their full backs
Not sure if we can hold out, I'm sure that Burnley will throw fresh legs on and we..........well really don't have a lot to bolster that defence on the bench
If we can come away with a point here I think it could turn our season, that defence as looked tremendous | | | |

For sure Harrison Ashby is the groundskeeper of the families land.... a local lad good with a tractor.
Unable to watch the game again today - baby duties, no-one told me a 4 month baby would be this full-on... f-ing nuts man. |
4 months is full on but also a joy, have you started the indoctrination yet? | |

75-25 was 80-20 earlier |
Problem is, no matter how hard we battle and ride our luck, one goal from them will be enough for the win...as we are toothless. We haven't been destroyed by anyone this season so hopefully that will continue. If we could beat teams that we have a chance against...we wouldn't be under so much pressure against the top sides. | | | |

I think they've done alright all things considering and working hard but Celar is going all out to top his abject performance on Tuesday with the most ineffectual striker play you'll ever see. I appreciate he will be offside numerous times but at least Lloyd will battle a bit and offer some threat behind. |  | | |

We must be on about 10% possession |
23.5% actually.
It's a hard watch. Backs to the wall for 44/46 minutes. The only note of relief when Smyth smacked the bar.
Thank God for Captain Cook. And Lt Dunne.
This can go 1 of 2 ways.
1. We succumb to the continual pressure.
2. We get a breakaway around 75 minutes and score the only goal of the game. |  |

We go long spells without the commentators mentioning Chair or Smyth. We need those players (especially Chair) to have the ball from time to time, if only to take the pressure off the defence for a minute or two. Sounds like heroic defending though. | | | |

Good battling away performance but I think it's inevitable they will create a clear cut chance and nick it . | | | |

We do miss Michi Frey hassling their centre backs. When you're backs against the wall like this, you can't underestimate how important it is having someone like Frey up top giving the defenders something to think about and dragging them around a bit. Celar plays like he's wearing cememt boots [Post edited 26 Oct 15:58]

Precisely. We're doing no more than half of what any professional team should be doing, which is defend and, here's a thought, attack now and again. We look bottom three and no more.
(Actually, less than half, as we also can't play the ball through midfield as a prerequsite of the attack bit.)
Nardi timewasting from around 15m to the derision for the home fans is just embarrassing - standard Champ stuff these days, I suppose, which is why I'm glad I don't pay for this 'product'. Hardly the beautiful game is it, Mr Marti? I'm sure our hard-hitting Offish commentator/interviewe anyone will interrgoate him about it later.
Sure we'be been organised in and around our box, though Burnley have been a lot less incisive than I thought, for all their massive possession. But if it's good enough for us to feel satisfied with that and ignore everything else, it's mainly a sign of how far we've stagnated - or sunk. |  |

Wow this is a hard a watch as was expected.
Burnley are really, really ordinary although their wingers have the beating of our full backs.
But, aside from the first 10 when we looked ok, this has been backs to the wall and nothing else.
Chair shocking today, Celar as expected, Dunne really poor, Ashby really poor.
Cook, Field and JCS doing well blocks aplenty.
But it is just a matter of time unfortunately.
45 more of attack v defence and men v boys.
...and all the action will be up the other end of the pitch... | |

He's barely had a pass in his direction while trying to deal with 2 CBs and the left back.
Not good but cut him a little slack. | |

To be fair to Smyth and Saito they’re both playing as auxiliary full backs and sticking to their task well | | | |
