  2. I'm suprised Lubo Satka hasn't been introduced to first team football yet, looks a good defensive prospect.
  3. Ty Segall - Manipulator That's my number 1, brilliant.
  4. Danny Ings has called on Burnley to come out flying when they face Newcastle United in the Barclays Premier League on Tuesday. Sean Dyche's side were slow to get going on Saturday at home to Aston Villa, falling 1-0 behind to Joe Cole's first-half goal. But the home side responded strongly after the interval to draw level through Ings' penalty three minutes from time. The England Under-21 forward almost snatched a third successive victory for Burnley at the end, but struck a post and he knows his team-mates cannot afford another poor opening as Newcastle visit Turf Moor. "The lads are confident at the moment, we've got to take confidence out of the last three games," he told Burnley's website. "The Premier League is the toughest league in the world and we're really competing now so it's well done to the boys. "Last year we were always good under the lights on a Tuesday night so it's going to be tough for Newcastle to come here and put on a performance against us. But we can't start like we did [against Villa]. With all due respect they [Newcastle] have got more quality than the team we played [on Saturday]. So it's important that we're on the front foot and we take the game to them." The hosts are concerned about the fitness of defender Michael Duff, who missed the Villa match with a calf strain and was replaced by Manchester United loanee Michael Keane. Matt Taylor (Achilles) and Sam Vokes (knee) remain longer-term absentees. Alan Pardew, meanwhile, will be without Moussa Sissoko, who was sent off in Saturday's 1-0 defeat by West Ham United and Jack Colback, after he was shown a fifth yellow card of the season at Upton Park. Goalkeeper Tim Krul (ankle) is another certain to miss out, as are Ryan Taylor (knee) and Gabriel Obertan (thigh). Steven Taylor came off the bench at West Ham after recovering from a knock, while defensive colleague Fabricio Coloccini could be back in contention after a thigh problem. The defeat at Upton Park ended a run of six straight victories for the club in all competitions, and Cheick Tiote was not too disheartened heading into their midweek clash. "This is football and we will take the good parts of our performance into Tuesday night at Burnley," he told the club's website. "It is important to remember that we won our last six games. We are in a good position, in good condition and if we win on Tuesday then one defeat in this game is not too bad. "We will do everything we can to come back against Burnley - it is a very important game." MATCH FACTS Head-to-head This is the first ever Premier League meeting between these sides. The last time they played was 31 years ago at Turf Moor - Burnley won that match 1-0 in March 1983 in the old Division Two. Newcastle's last victory away to Burnley was 1-0 on Boxing Day 1975 in the top flight. Burnley Burnley are unbeaten in three Premier League matches with two wins and one draw. They haven't scored more than one goal in their eight games at home in all competitions this season. The Clarets have scored just nine goals in their 13 league games this season, only Aston Villa (seven) have fewer. Danny Ings has scored four goals in his last five Premier League appearances. Newcastle United Newcastle's defeat by West Ham ended a run of five straight league wins for Newcastle. Aaron Cresswell's winner for West Ham was the first goal conceded by the Magpies in four matches. It was also the first time they had failed to find the net in eight games in all competitions. Alan Pardew's side have failed to score in the first-half in 10 of their 13 league games this season. Moussa Sissoko's red card was Newcastle's sixth in 2014 - no Premier League side has received more in the calendar year. Burnley (from): Gilks, Heaton, Duff, Keane, Lafferty, Long, Mee, Reid, Shackell, Trippier, Ward, Arfield, Boyd, Chalobah, Howieson, Jones, Kightly, Marney, Wallace, Barnes, Ings, Jutkiewicz, Sordell.

  5. Just heard Lee Clattermole has won the Sports Writers Award, the kid is fucking shit. Shows how low football has sunk when a plodder like that is picking up awards.
  6. Totally agree, playing Tiote and Colback and Gouffran just doesn't work. We are far too negative, as proved by our start to the season. We play much better being positive on the front foot, I thought we'd turned a corner and Pardew had come around to a different tactical outlook but clearly fucking not. His natural thought process is to give the opposition far too much respect, they were missing a handful of important players and were there for the taking today. Opportunity missed. They created very little, as did we. Very fortunate goal but we switched off completely, Sissoko will be a big miss.
  7. Carroll is shit like, nothing but a plodder.
  8. Turned into a horror show this, I said it last week that we were two injuries away from being absolutely shit again. We are now four injuries and a suspension down, December is going to be a very hard month.
  9. Lucky bastards, that scuff could have went fucking anywhere!
  10. What's the crack with this like mate, is it a pay monthly subscription?
  11. He is terrible, absolutely no end product.
  12. Finally. http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-east-news/newcastle-could-set-hooters-bar-8178710
  13. It would be a waste having Sissoko in Colback's position, completely nullifying his attacking capabilities.
  14. Back in training today, totally forgot about him. Hopefully he can come back stronger as he could be a vital asset in the second half of the season.
  15. Always on the shoulder of defenders using his pace to get an advantage, we've needed that type of forward for a long time.
  16. Gouffran is the most pointless footballer we've ever had, gives us absolutely nothing.
  17. We don't have a lot of protection for the defence with that lineup, which hopefully means we are going out positive to score more goals against these fucking cockends.
  18. Could really do with him staying fit, we've been solid at the back over the past month.
