[Albion] Premier League 28/10 - 30/10

[Bozza]

Burnley v Newcastle to come tonight to finish off this round of fixtures.

Both teams above us, but it feels to me as though Burnley are more likely to be in and around us as the season progresses, particularly if they lose Dyche to Everton or the next trigger-happy club.

A draw to keep them both in touching distance?

 

[dadams2k11]

Yes a draw will be the best result for us, keep them in and around us.

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Chris Wood is injured and Number 9 (10) - Ashley Barnes leads the line for the Clarets.

With Vokes out too.

Newcastle will be boosted by that, if the right Newcastle turns up.

[TomandJerry]

Boring game so far

 

[Ernest]

What an absolute crock of shite so far, no wonder we are doing well so far with teams like this in the top half of the table

 

[dazzer6666]

Nothing here for us to worry about............................

 

[TomandJerry]

Apparently both goal keepers are wearing the same colour'd kit? If So, how is that allowed?

 

[Peter Ward]

With games like this evening's dross, as this season progresses it becomes blindingly clear that Albion are a strong Premiership side with great chances to not only stay up but to finish in the top half. I'm so pleased, so proud of the team, the manager and the club. Loving every minute and can't wait for each game.

Says a lot when Joselu getting hoofed in the tezzers is the absolute highlight of the match.

 

[edna krabappel]

Oooh. Burnley score.

Good.

 

[Is it PotG?]

Sky picked a good 'un here....

 

[LamieRobertson]

Good Burnley score

 

[Weststander]

European football in 2018/19 beckons for Burnley.

Why do we want Burnley to win? Weren't they considered more likely to be relegated?

I think it's just because Newcastle's sense of entitlement at this level bores me. At no stage did many of their fans consider that they might be anything other than solid mid table contenders this year, rather than relegation candidates as befits a team just promoted from the Championship. Because they are a big club, they automatically seem to think they've a right to be considered Premier League fixtures.

Also, Shelvey. And Matt Ritchie.
