City v Burrnlee Thread

[FlemingtonFox]

I remember when we played Burnley at home in April ‘68, the day before my 10th birthday. They beat us 2-0. When Frank Large missed an absolute sitter I stood up in the Double Decker and yelled “How the f**k did you miss that”! The old lady next to me didn’t think a nine year old should be talking like that and gave me a right ticking off.

Back four deeply involved in the Chuckle Brothers routine tomorrow apparently. "To me, to you"

That was my first game. Will never forget it. Night game.
Years later took grandson to his first game. Burnley, lost.
Unreal.

77 was Fun....

 

[mickyhoss]

1978 and all that......Jock's first game

 

[Southwiggy]

Yeah that's the one 78....

 

[FlemingtonFox]

1978 and all that......Jock's first game

Yeah, I was at that one too!

 

[mickyhoss]

Yeah, I was at that one too!

You'll enjoy issue 3 of the Fanzine

Iheanacho not in the starting 11 apparently so it’s going to be Perez or Maddison again.

 

[FlemingtonFox]

It cannot be Maddison, he simply does not deserve to start. Either Lookman or Iheanacho, or both, should be starting.

 

[kendalfox]

Perez I still banned ain't he

 

[Foxgolfer]

Hope we actually try to play in their half rather than our own penalty area today . Just a thought

 

[CityFox]

Perez I still banned ain't he

no

 

[ClaphamFox]

Maddison dropped. Well I never…

 

[CityFox]

No Perez or Maddison

 

[LGFOX]

Lookman starting. Excellent

 

[Silver Fox]

Perez is on the bench

 

[Ibbo]

If we play our cards right in this one we could scrape a draw...

 

[Harwichfox]

Burnley score.

 

[Feckit]

Vardy misses a sitter in the Burnley 6 yard box but doesn’t miss in our 6 yard box 0.1 ffs…

 

[Blue]

1-1 Vardy

 

[astleyfox]

Give me fucking strength.

 

[Richardvanles]

Stop fucking about, you’re in my acca!

 

[sixthswan]

You said you don’t go on the football board, out of respect…

 

[Harwichfox]

Dreadful

 

[Richardvanles]

You said you don’t go on the football board, out of respect…

There’s money involved here so shut it!

 

[Silver Fox]

Dreadful

Much like Schmichael's distribution. Can't believe the commentators said it was usually excellent.

If you’re listening to the same one I am, that was Lee Hendrie, so you have to consider the source.

Meanwhile, Kasper has indeed been poor. Beaten at his near post for the second goal. Dodgy on crosses. Terrible distribution. Time for Danny Ward?

 

[astleyfox]

Corners are pathetic. We8ve got a 6’7” lunk in the middle and they float it over his head.

 

[buz_not_buzz]

N'Didi got away with one at the end there... well, two really as that mess started with him and then he failed to make amends when he had the chance to clear.
