Looking forward to this. Hope we can get a decent crowd, im sure they'll be bring a few.
Think we've got everyone available, so should have our strongest eleven starting.
Not sure about them. Set of dirty swines have had five players sent off their last two away games.

Think if we keep our heads we should beat them. Might not be a very pretty game, though.

Not sure what the Blackpool situation is with suspensions, will they all return now?

Fuller and one other suspended. Cathcart and Osborne injured. They are expecting to put out a very inexperienced back four again.

Betfair's Lewis Jone's view of the game, is he one of our moaning fans ?


"Lay Burnley to beat Blackpool @ 1.9

The wheels haven't completely come off Burnley Championship title push but the bolts are loosening slightly. After a fantastic start to the campaign, where Danny Ings and Sam Vokes were firing home chances all over the shop, things have slowed to a crawl since winter came into view. Since beating QPR 2-0 at end of October, the Clarets have won just one of their last seven games. As with all Sean Dyche teams, defensively they have been assured, conceding just five goals in the last five games but the fact the attackers have bulged the net just five times in their last six makes them very vulnerable against a Blackpool side that can cause teams problems. Paul Ince's men were the better team for 60 minutes last weekend at home to QPR but Matt Phillips inspired the visitors to victory on his return to his former club."

Nothing about their recent implosion? It isn't half odd to read others' views on us sometimes.

Thing with Lewis Jones Jabber is that he's looking for value bets and he reckons we aren't an odds-on chance, which is fair enough. If we were priced at say 2/1 he'd probably make out a case for us being a good bet at that price.

I don't really understand odds and all that stuff, but I'll take your word for it!

I'll be disappointed not to win given their recent woes but still expect a tough game. Always loved the games against Blackpool having done my training there and living a stone's throw from Bloomfield for three years.

I'm expecting a very tough game, it's just the nature of this division, and Blackpool have lost only 3 out of 10 away games. Even though we've had good results this season I've only seen us blow one team away and that was Birmingham, every other game I've seen has been a battle. I don't see why tomorrow will be any different, any sort of win will do for me.

The Beeb are not exactly reassuring: Burnley have won just one of their last eight matches, a 1-0 win at Barnsley. That eight-match sequence followed a run of eight consecutive wins in all competitions. Burnley, like QPR, are defending an unbeaten home record in the Championship this season. Their only reverse at Turf Moor this season was a 2-0 defeat against West Ham in the Capital One Cup. Burnley have not scored more than one goal in any of their last six matches."

This may be the defining game of our season. Lose and given other results we could be in fourth spot. Win and it may be we are back on track and ready to nick points off Middlesbrough on a day that produces notoriously fickle football results.

I think we will well and truly lash the donkeys tomorrow.

Come On You Clarets !

The fans will play an important role today

Sounds good.
Glad that shithead Fuller is not playing.
That penalty for Preston still wrankles after all this time.

One of the most blatant dives I've ever seen. I @#$%& hated Preston back then, they always had those players who just boiled your @#$%&; Fuller, Nugent and of course Nogan.

I hope the Bob Lord are in good voice to give that horrible beggar Ince some abuse.

He's a very angry man.

He's a @#$%&

Wonder how many those mofos will bring?

I think they'd only sold around 1,850 the other day.

Come on you clarets!!

BURNLEY: Heaton, Trippier, Mee, Shackell, Duff, Kightly, Marney, Arfield, Jones, Ings, Vokes.

Subs: Cisak, Lafferty, Stock, Long, Edgar, Treacy, Stanislas.

1-0 Clarets, had to be Oh Danny, Danny

Ince causing us problems.

1-1.

2-1 Arfield.

Back to the top, a good 3 points that, well done Clarets

Tough game as I predicted. We're a fairly tough team ourselves, though.

Top of the league!!!

OHHHHHHHHHHH, dingle bells, dingle bells, dingle all the way!!!!

Great win, sounded a really tough game that.

Burnley are on the top position in the Championship most deservedly .The fighting spirit of the players is to be applauded .So far they have done no wrong .We wish that we shall continue with the winning streak till the conclusion of our last match .

We are top of the league, we are top of the league

Could have been behind at half-time but we crushed the life out of them in the second half, they were reduced to long range shots by 70 minutes and were well beaten at the end.

Wonder why we aren't clicking until the second-half recently?

Paul Ince has, apparently, criticised our style of play and labelled us a 'long-ball team'.

Great win, enthralling game, terrific to watch, Ings could should have had 4.

Second half mostly Burnley, should have been out of sight long before end and saved a few chewed nails.

Crowd noise excellent. The best for weeks.

And then steak and ale pie at the Queen in Cliviger followed by Sticky Toff Pud and custard on the way home.

Beat that
