Imagine being a Burnley fan...travelling all that way down to London, sitting in the pissing rain in about 3 degrees all afternoon, and not even seeing a shot on target.
Nah, I've enough bollocks going on in life to depress myself further than imagining i come from Lancashire

Least the weather was better than home in the summer.

And then to top it all off after the match you have to go live in Burnley

when a goalie wastes time like that he is really saying..............this is a shit shit team....my teammates are useless and the only way to get anything out of this game is to not play this game.

still not as bad as West Brom last year though

Fuck Burnley, they were a shit excuse of a football team today.

The referees really need to stamp out first half time wasting.

I hope they go down.

I don't buy that argument.

Bournemouth, who have arguably the least resources in the league, play an open brand of football and have done just fine in the Prem for years.

The problem is that too many managers choose the safe, boring option of sticking 11 men behind the ball and time wasting at every opportunity, because they don't have the tactical ability to do anything else. Hence my admiration for Eddie Howe.
Exactly. There's simply no imagination or ambition in playing like that. It's easy to tell your players to time waste, it's easy to tell them to sit deep, its easy to tell them to make niggly fouls and hit teams. What isn't easy is coaching movement, passing methods and cohesive attacking play. There's nothing brave or new about what Dyche does and it's why he'll not be taken on buy a bigger club.

So many rose tinted glasses out there. I see that honesty does not prevail here,but who cares. I say it as I see it.
You truly are a paragon. A titan of truth. An inspiration for all men. We bow down before your sooth saying; your unparalleled honesty....

That's basically what I was trying to say but you've done a much better job of it!

Remember when he was being touted for the gooner job. That would have been amazing.

Wasn't there and haven't seen the game yet. I listened on 5 Live and have only watched stream of Eriksen goal.
Kudos to the fans who made it there. I know the Wembley atmosphere is getting neg rep now but it's hard on the fans who do go, and the players, to get 'up for it' on a cold day, pissing with rain, against an opponent that gets 11 men behind the ball and time wastes throughout. Justice was finally done and I hope every fan there enjoyed the moment.

I wonder if, when our opening fixture at new stadium is confirmed, suddenly Wembley becomes a bit more exciting again? The final countdown to the national stadium finishing as our rented accommodation and us moving home at last. Especially if we can grind out wins over Christmas and New Year and still be in a great position as we play our final 'home' match at Wembley. I suspect that will be one party atmosphere.

I was sat right behind the goal where eriksen scored and the funniest moment was when the ball was out of play shortly after we scored, Hart turned to look at all of us and everyone was giving him so much shit, the wanker signs, everything. Hart had his hands on his hips just thinking "yeah...I deserve this" haha

41,645 isn't a bad crowd consider how many games we have played recently.

As you say "much" kudos to those fans

Eriksen’s celebration wasn’t that of someone who’s looking to move on... nor was Toby’s against Barca when we drew and qualified for the next stage. Pray they both stay.
