Come on you clarets...Keep the unbeaten run going..nothing less than three points today please against those Yawkshire minnows

I would like to see Boyd and Arfield rested and Kights and the ex-Watford winger brought in. Darikwa would also add some spice and give Lowton a rest. We have some tough games coming up and Leeds doesn't look like one of them.

P/as poor from the Clarets ... Need to improve drastically in the second half or Leeds will eventually get a decent chance

For all the moaning on Tuesday I thought we played better against Cardiff than Leeds but one of our chances went in

All about opinions, I thought we were better today, especially in defence. And for 10 minutes towards the end we even looked a good team again, until Sean took Gray off and invited Leeds onto us. No idea why he did that, we were well on top at the time.

Four points,Leeds,goal apart,were the better side today, Boyd is fluffy. we were better when Marney came on.....we were weaker when Gray went off.Just my opinion.

I think Defences would fear Gray and Barnes more than they fear Gray and Vokes.
Just my humble opinion.

As much as I dislike SAF, this truly is squeaky bum time isn't it? We are playing badly, but winning ugly. Last time I knew we would go up after Scotty equalized at Watford with a whole slew of games left. This time with only 5 games left? not so sure.

Next game Brum. That's all we have to worry about - and another squeaky bum.

By the time we start our next game we could be 5points behind as Middlesbrough play twice before us Also i know SD doesnt like to change a winning team but at this point we need fresh and fit legs and we have got plenty of them on the bench who are keen to show what they are made of fighting fit to get a game

18 games, 12 wins, 6 draws, 34 scored, 10 conceded.

Same 11 every game.

Just hope Jones and Vokes are OK for Saturday, think Jones just felt ill, sure they will be.

Same 11 please - anything else would be insane.

"Squeaky bum time"

Really? Honestly?

I'm absolutely loving this, simply turning up at every game, even away games, knowing you've git a result.

Winning the title would mean the world to me but I can honestly say I'm neither worried nor nervous in the slightest .

It's all in your own heads.

Or in this case Chris Woods' head, he missed two absolute sitters with his.

Still like Cardiff bouncing one off the crossbar when it was easier to score, it just shows we're going up, promoted teams always get the breaks.

We could be 5 points behind boro before we play at Birmingham at a point behind Brighton so brum is looking like a must win game.

Sick of reading 'must win' - it's all nonsense.

we MUST WIN at least 3 to win the title.

Why lying for.

We MUST NOT WIN anymore games so we finish in the play offs just to satisfy a posters warped mind.

Second best......draws and wins.It is more likely we will play well in the next games.Anyways it's better than cruising to the title or whatever.Barnes will probably score one of those impossible goals at just the right moment.450 or so mins to the title or the real squeaky bum playoffs.

Sean will tell you quite openly, we don't play for draws, we aim to win every game. So that record, good as it is, means Sean has failed to achieve his objective in 6 of the last 18 games. So it's clear, we're under-achieving in around one third of our games even on a good run, so there's room for improvement, there always is.

It's looked to me for some time now that we need more mobility, pace, dynamism in the team, and that's precisely what Barnes and Marney brought when they came on against Leeds. And almost immediately the performance improved, we got on top of Leeds for the first time in the game and they were on the back foot. There is absolutely nothing to fear, nothing to lose from playing Marney and Barnes, both good experienced players at this level, both fit into our system seamlessly. I really can't believe you're fretting about the possibility of Marney and Barnes starting MH, you know what they can do, you know they fit in, what's got into you ?

If they improve the level of performance, and they did on Saturday, then they should play, simple really.

Barnes is a good all round football player,he also roughs the opposition up good style.Marney can share or carry some of Joey's legs.It seems very strange or unusual for a Burnley side having these options in the closing stages of a season.There will no excuse if it is not used to best advantage.

To be fair Dyche might not yet see them as ready for more than coming off the bench for the last 15 minutes or so.They have only recently come back from long a lay off.

The title's gone now so you can save yourself a trip to Charlton.

I've no intention of going to Charlton.

I am not convinced boro have it in them to win the title

somebody else did, boro have won 4 on the trot and have reading and Bolton before we play brum, they could be 5 points clear of us so can afford to draw against us.

@#$%& me you're weak.

Booked for Charlton yet huggles ?

I couldn't care less about Boro, they can have top spot for me, happy to finish 2nd to them. Couldn't care less about Brighton either, they can have top spot as well, happy to finish 2nd to them.

What does worry me is Boro AND Brighton, especially if Brighton win at Forest tonight, if they both keep on their roll then we could be looking at the play-offs.

If it does go down to the wire then we have the advantage, they can't both get 3 points on the last day, win at Charlton and we gain at least two points, possibly three, on one of the other two.

A bit defeatist that Bob ?
Owt could happen.

Bloody Brighton winning.

No worries.we're at 1/8 to go up.
Bookies are rarely wrong.

Happy with the Brighton win. If I have to go to Charlton then I want the excitement.
I hope it's the same as it is now on the final day with all 3 involved. They play each other so only one can win anyway but it adds to it.

The table exactly as it is right now on the final day please.

If it's like it is now on the final day then we've been a PL team for five days already and the celebrations are long finished. The Charlton game will just be a jolly in London, unless you're like MH and actually care whether we finish first or second, me I couldn't give a FF.

The ideal scenario for me, if I could pan the season out now, would be a scenario where all 3 clubs could finish top, all 3 could be second and all 3 could be third.

That would be amazing.

Something like this:

Burnley 91
Boro 90
Brighton 90

Going into the last game.

The knight mare scenario is us third with Brighton and borough 3 points ahead of us and play for a draw.

No... The ideal scenario for us is we are two points clear at the top going into the last round of matches ...That would be ideal

Most exciting situation would be that all 3 of us could finish in all 3 places.

To go and be a part of a day like that would be immense.

Too much for my old ticker Huggles.. I would feel better knowing we were at least assured of a Promo spot.

Half the fun gone then mate.

I can't even get down on the day, gonna have to go down Friday night, stay somewhere on my Jack then up for the game Sat.

Gonna cost a small fortune, so want monies worth!

I'm 30 mins off Charlton by train that weekend visiting my son and grandchildren,I wonder if there will be any pay on the day in the Charlton end if it ends up like you say, with us needing to win.If so I will certainly think about making the short journey with my son ...

As I said then. Weak. Just glad me and Sean ain't like this.

I'm still wondering what we're going to do with all that money in summer. Triple the wage bill, buy 3 £10m players and we still have plenty of the TV moolah left over.

Maybe they could give us all our ST money back. Why not, everybody else at the club is going to be quids in, and they could easily afford it.

What about us fans !!!!

Correct.

Leicester were 5000/1 to win the Premier League,,,ooops

That 5000/1, why do you think there's a 1 at the end, what do you think that represents ?

Hey you can't fool me it represents £1 😄
