Burnley v Southampton Match Thread

[SAINTDON13]

Yes, Southampton Airport has been quite badly affected today. As you say, they're getting it sorted though, actually ahead of predicted schedule.

Just airborne at 16:50 and on its way.

Just airborne at 16:50 and on its way.

So still much quicker than a coach or train.

Feeling very confident about this one. 3 points and on to Sheffield. COYR!

The team must be hurting; think we will win.

Weather warning for Burnley...pack your thermals.

Have dug my thermals out!! See Lancashire Telegraph has issued a weather warning with maybe the possibility of snow within the next 48 hours!!! Will be absolutely gutted to travel all that way and the game is called off.

We are already ensconced in Shawforth, 8 miles south of Burnley, weather is wintery but unlikely to cause any problems.. 6 of us looking forward with optimism.

It is the Christmas dinner tonight at the stadium I just drove past, Loads of blokes in suits and sexy woman

So the players aren't going...unless it's a private function.

St Mary's hire out the hospitality suites for Christmas parties, I'd imagine it was just people from a company with a very sexy female work force.

Really looking forward to a 3 o'clock game...prefer to have us play when the other teams are. Hope it suits us better. Obviously hoping for a win, but we must start scoring again or this could be an underwhelming draw. Need 2 wins this week, boys. COYR

i know he used to play for them, but his bias toward them is showing how poor he is as a pundit. He has them down to lose at old trafford on sunday, in his eyes their first loss of the season, now that is delusion.

Maybe a bit like us with our Southampton predictions . How often do many of us predict a Saints defeat.

After 15 weeks, Lawro is only slightly ahead of the guest pundits (108 v 100). So a football 'expert' has a small lead against a bunch of film stars, DJs and writers (some of whom probably select a result with a pin).

COYR! Stoked!

Well I am normally cautious on our games. I had 0-0 v Sunderland and 0-2 v United.

I have gone for it today and thrown caution to the wind.... 0-1 Saints

 

[fatletiss]

I am hoping that my trip to Sky Studios today means that I will be seeing this game 'live' on their screens.

Come on you Reds.

FLT - please punch that Dickhead Merson for all of us!

Top talkSport pundit Georgie Bingham predicting a 2-0 Burnley win after our run of three defeats in a row....now I'm worried

 

[TheSecondStain]

COYR! Stoked!

Surely you should be burning..?

 

[saintluke94]

Got a spare concession ticket for today's game if anyone wants it, will take face value.

 

[thereisonlyoneno7]

Statistically, if I comment on a match thread for a 3 o'clock kick off before the game, we win.

Here we go then

No7

Make no doubt about it, a draw today would be a good result as Burnley are no mugs at home and it's important that we get at least a point on the board after our recent run of results, I certainlly won't be slitting my wrists if we fail to win this one. Having said that, I have a feeling that we will sneak a 1-0 win today.
