Cheers Montey, we may be delusional but we are in the Premiership

Allow me to retort....

Well, go Clarets then.

Since the only football I'm interested in is foosball (we have a table at work) - the next time someone asks which team I'm following it'll be Burnley FC for sure

Welcome to the fan club Markus !

Just reporting that tonight we beat Man U 1 - 0 courtesy of a Robbie Blake screamer and a penalty save from The Beast.... Burnley are Back

Bauer, you've been proved wrong nice and early, hopefully this is going to fill them full of confidence. Next up are Everton at home, who are rock bottom and I think we can maybe pick another three points

Get In !!!!

Joint top of the league though (much to my amazement!)

Great win for Burnley tonight. Your celebratory post seems rather low key considering the achievement

The dream has been dared and won

WTG boys. That is a huge effort

Happy to be proven wrong

Ahhh yes, the local tech that wanders in every day carrying his Man U stickered toolbox just told me to "get fucked" when I yelled out "Go Clarets!" Whoohooo!

I heard the result driving in and damn near drove off the road.

Even better, one of the other guys has added a RE that he cut from another sticker to the Man U sticker already on the tool box. I am trying my best to get a photo before he bolts, but he is being rather un fucking friendly this morning.

Im waiting for it to upload to rapidshare. They dont generally upload the lesser teams but I reckon being a Man U game it might get a look in (unless the uploader is a Man U fan

)

Woohoo, we won

I just couldn't believe that we had managed to pull it off to be honest... still can't

particularly after the defeat at Stoke where I was expecting 3 points in the bag. I have to hand it to Owen Coyle, the manager. He did a superb job with them last year and has obviously pulled them up off the floor after the stoke game and got them back in the right frame of mind. Man U dominated in the second half and we defended for our lives. The keeper was fuckin brilliant as well as the back four, just awsomeness in bucket loads

Was keeping an eye on the Toon as well, yep they are doing great atm but need a buyer soon, I Hope they can keep it up

The Goal

@ Dexter... there is a torrent knocking around.. its only the first half but English commentary... search EPL Burnley v Man Utd

fair call. there is Burnley then there is patriotism

I just finished watching the game. The look on the faces in the crowd as the clock was winding down in the final minutes was special. You cant tell me there was a lot of hope prior to the start cos the looks of disbelief that Burnley may actually win was awesome

Sweet as. Any day that Manure scum lose is a good day, but it's just special when it's as the hands of clubs such as Burnley. Almost as good as Hull putting 3 goals past Manure at Old Trafford last season

This weekends fixtures

Table

Home game against the mock scousers (Everton) today at 3pm our time. Everton got pasted on the opening day of the season by ARSEnal, trouble in the camp surrounding one of thier players who wants out to moneybags Man City. They got back on track midweek with a good win in Europe so could be tough game ( like all of them I suppose

). I'll be happy with a draw although out of all the EPL games so far there's only been one draw.

The great thing at the moment is that Bastard Rovers have yet to score a point, regardless of what anyone else might say they are our closest and most hated rivals. All you Aus clarets should know that nothing compares to the rivalry between The Clarets and Bastards.

Daring to Dream again today.... gl Clarets

Um.... how about the Geordies and the Mackems? Had any good riots at the train station recently? The Mackems went nuts at a train station in Newcastle just last weekend.

Johnny X · Post by **Johnny X** » Sun Aug 23, 2009 9:31 pm

I can understand some niggles between the Toon Army and the Mackems

Rivalry between us and the Bastards goes back a long way, we haven't played each other in competition for a few years now. No doubt every train station between Burnley and Blackburn will be a battlegorund, any cars driving down the M65 will be fair game from the many bridges etc... The Feds are going to have a busy day when the teams meet again, that's for sure (Not that I condone football violence in any way) but it's been too long for Claret and Bastard fans alike to let the rivalry lie... I'm staying well out of the way

Result from todays game....

Burnley FC 1 - Everton FC 0

Courtesy of a Wade Elliot goal and another missed penalty from the opposition, this time Saha stroking tamely wide. Another 10 man defence performance after going ahead but who cares

Moved up to 7th in the table, the Clarets dream keeps rolling on....

Match report

Current Table
Next weeks fixtures

Chelski away next weekend in the early kick off too. We did beat Chelski at Stamford Bridge in cup competition last season so fingers crossed for another 3 points
