    Team as expected with Mundle getting his chance. The bench is more of a surprise. No Adil or Ba but 3 centre half’s.

    Ballard, Browne and Poveda on the bench is nice. Ba and Aouchiche leaving? Burnleys squad is a lot weaker than their first 2 games. Big chance for another 3 points today.

    Just seen Burnley’s Xl. More confident than I was an hour ago that’s for sure. Some decent players missing for them.

    Wonder why that is. I can’t see it meaning they are both away, would leave us very light if so.

    First big call by Regis imo. Browne on the bench, Rigg stays in. I would play Rigg every game personally, but in a game like this there will have been a strong temptation to pick Browne.

    One or two not on bench too...

    Yeah I think he may be aswell which is a shame as he has a lot of potential.
    Wonder if him going and some of the Clarke money frees up bringing in the lad from Hamburg.

    Any thoughts on the French lads seemingly being put on the back burner? Totally counter-intuitive to how you'd think things would be with a new French coach.

    Ba, Aouchiche, Ekwah and Pembele. Seems like Mayenda is the one who is thriving.

    Still looks a very strong starting 11, Cullen missing is a massive blow for them - i think hes quality at this level

    This could be a classic but I'll take a scrappy 1-0 to go top ...

    ... Ha'way the Lads!!!

    I don't think so.

    Can find the £180 season pass on the website, but not a single match option
