2 points from a possible 18. |  |

And on 22:07 - Oct 25 with 1751 views | bournemouthblue | Oooooops! That's a real shame for them, they have a habit of flouncing pretty quickly but have so far, fluked a decent replacement It's time for them to buck that trend! |  |

It's their position in May that really matters. And somehow 7th on goal difference would be even better than 11th! I don't think Smith will last much longer and it will be interesting who they get in. I noticed Dyche analysing yesterday. I hope they don't appoint him because I quite like him and think he is a good manager. |  |

WOTB is fun reading tonight! But agree with you, I hope they keep and prolong the suffering |  |

We are very used to them just rolling sixes with the dice. I remember them irritatingly getting £20 million for Maddison the summer after their parachute payments had run out and they had finished mid-table. Obviously, they went up as champions the following year. [Post edited 25 Oct 2022 22:17]

I agree. However, their current form (2 points from the last 6 games) is to be enjoyed! I really hope they don't appoint Dyche. Hopefully he'll go to a Premier League club. |  | |  |

I think they have a few trolls on there tonight. Names mentioned so far include Pulis, Allardice... And Lambert! |  | |  |

It was a clear handball. Their captain dived goalkeeper style with his arms above his head to stop a cross into the area. I like Vincent Kompany. Hope he does well there. |  |

And on 22:32 - Oct 25 with 1450 views | BlueBadger | Controversial take: we could do with them winning a few between now and Christmas before doing their traditional post-January drop-off. They keep in indifferent form now, they might think about employing a competent manager. |  |

As I said elsewhere in the thread, could do with them picking up a few streaky wins. Otherwise they'll sack smith when their season is potentially saveable. |  |

It's kind of what I was trying to say earlier in the thread. Just picking up a few points here and there which don't punch too much of a hole in the league table. If they get rid too soon, they'll get in someone decent and in that division, a run of eight games can send you storming clear as everyone is so inconsistent. That draw at Sheff U would have been looked at favourably but didn't really help them or affect anything too much. A few 1-0 wins against the likes of Wigan, Hull etc won't hurt. |  |

They'll finish 6th on goal difference after scraping a 2-2 draw on the last day of the season with goals in minutes 90+5 and 90+7. They'll win the playoff final with a penalty shootout after the opposition goalkeeper gets shot and no substitute is allowed. |  |

And if they go into complete freefall, we might not get to play them next season. |  |

Very plausible. I'm still shaking my head at the fact Boro couldn't even get to bloody Wembley in time that year. |  |

It was a blatant handball but Burnley did dominate a lot of the match, was quite nice sat watching us win and them lose last night. That division is so tight though that they'll have a streaky run at some point again. |  |
