Mental. How on earth can a Premier League team not field a full team with subs, even allowing for Covid. Shambles. The EPL need to bring in tough rules on this, similar to those just brought in by Seria A.at this rate they'll have a game every day in April/May
You get the feeling that once they inevitably get relegated they'll struggle to get back up (or atleast i hope they do)
They have a good cricket club across the road and Arfield scored when I went there. So not all bad.I hope they never return. The club or their rat ridden town bring absolutely nothing to the Premier League.
It's like the Junior league!Game now confirmed as off.
Burnley have played as many as 5 games less than some other teams
As much as being in the epl would be great with the best players coming to play etc, surely you’d get fed up watching your team losing or desperately trying to get draws to stay up and just fancy a year in the championship to win games.You get the feeling that once they inevitably get relegated they'll struggle to get back up (or atleast i hope they do)
Sooner they're relegated the better.
Understand your emotion bro, but honestly to “push games back” to allow you just get “get signings in and players back” is completely against the spirit of the game. Until 6 weeks ago there was no question anywhere of a game being postponed because you couldn’t field your strongest team! It is utterly dumb, and especially in the richest league in the world, but that is not Burnley’s fault. At the end of the day if the team that played in the last round of the League Cup was good enough for it, plus the players that were rested, then you have enough players to fulfill a fixture! End of story whoever you are.I'm a Burnley fan, we had four games in a row postponed mostly for covid reasons, none of which we requested. If it's good enough for the other teams it's good enough for us. We have a small squad with our best player at AFCON - more than happy to push those games back to allow us to get signings in and players back.
Great comparison.It's like the Junior league!
That's 50% more than the number Arsenal had missing with covidBarry Glendenning tweeting they only have two players missing if it's true they should be hammered
St Mirren done it against the filth.I read that all the players on the Bayern bench were youngsters with no Bundesliga experience. Surely if Bayern can do it then no reason for the clubs in the EPL not to be able to fulfill fixtures
A lot of good blue noses in Burnley, I hope it doesn't affect they're fight to stay in the EPL. Hoping to get through for the Villa game in May and a few sherberts in the Angel Inn. All bears are made very welcome in the Angel.I'm a Burnley fan, we had four games in a row postponed mostly for covid reasons, none of which we requested.
