Zijn er geen acties gepland om Tottenham in een sfeer van vijandigheid te ontvangen?
Are there no actions planned to host Tottenham in an atmosphere of hostility?
THEIR ULTRAS ARE VERY WELL SPOKEN


Collectief 86 heeft laten weten de Radisson Blu te willen bestormen, maar ze hebben niet genoeg mondmaksers.
Collective 86 has announced that they want to storm the Radisson Blu, but they do not have enough mouth-makers.
WELL, MOST OF THEM
If any of you have ever been to Antwerp, the idea of a subset of angry Belgian ultras throwing flares and causing trouble at the Raddison is generally hilarious. At most I would expect a Belgian to look at you with condescension for ordering a waffle incorrectly or scoff seeing that your scarf is 3cm lopsided on the right side.

I personally can't wait until we have to play Burnley again, I'll happily take one for the team and visit their forum in the lead up to that game.

Lovely city and yes, I had the exact same thoughts as you :LOL:

I'm sure it isn't, but the fact she was 15 at that point makes me hope it is :p

I have to say, I understand Dyche has been working on an extremely tight budget for quite some time but, their style of play is terrible and as a fan I would be embarrassed to watch them, never mind claim they were 'superb'. I would love to know how many times they pumped the ball up to their strikers last night, I remember saying to my brother every time they did it that their style was a joke, and I said that a lot!

We got drawn into that far too often by doing the same and I was becoming frustrated, but to watch that every week must be a tough gig. I don't say this too often but I genuinely hope they go down, there is no place in the Premier League for that style of football.

It's probably the only reason they are still in the Premier league.... Why shouldn't they play like that? If they'd tried to play us at our own game we'd have put 5 or 6 past them. It's not like they are massively dirty with it, fair play to them I say.

It's the thing that (imo) makes Dyche a quality manager. No real difference (to a much lesser degree) to Mourinho, and the likes of BFS.
Play to your strengths. You can't put lipstick on a pig and expect it to win Miss World. He's got no where near the resources to be in the league, but has had them in Europe.

Tbf that's a myth...she was 19 or something

Well just a cursory google will tell you she was born in 1984...song released in 2003 :)

It’ll also tell you here arguably most provocative song was released in March 2000 when she was indeed 15, but how we got here from Burnley is beyond me

Well Burnley or Alizee is quite the choice...I'm torn.

Anyway back onto football :)

Yes you're the tenth person to say the same thing in reply to this. I agree my argument was probably unfair and that teams will have different styles of play to ensure they stay up but my point was supposed to be more targeted at the fans and how tough of a watch it must be on a weekly basis watching them just lump it up to their forwards.

I expect most of the fans are over the moon they are playing how they are in the Prem. I expect most of them remember how shit it was to be playing in league 2 just12 years ago.

This thread has reached it's ultimate peak - Burnley mixed with Alizee!

To be fair, i'm glad her age was cleared up....not that I had a massive crush on her back in '03 or nothing :cautious:

Exactly. I'm a Deportivo La Coruña fan, a team currently buried in the third division of Spain (or Segunda B, as they call it), and I would prefer it a million times to have us at the top division parking the bus every weekend.

Blimey! The days of Trsitán must seem a long time ago now!

I’ve actually quite liked watching Burnley for the last few years. They give the top teams a hard time every now and then and are a good side on the whole. I like Barnes and mentioned his qualities in the summer. He loves playing against the big sides and gives them a torrid time. They kept the second most clean sheets in the league last season, which is no mean feat whatsoever. Plus Dyche is obviously a good manager and as one of the only English managers in the league I’d hate to see him leave it.
From a personal point of view, Dyche's philosphy and therefore the optics of the Burnley team is an affront to me. But I will just leave it there
