Its back and worse than ever. With no Team news thread either to go on. So off the top of my head. We've lost 3 and won one of the last 4 meetings. Those two losses cost us our PL place. Not a game for Hudd going on these 4 games. One of the worst displays the away game in the PL, the home game as bad. Battling loss away last season at least. While the home game 3-0 was a terrific Meyler/Jake/Diame inspired win. Not sure how many changes Phelan will make, if any. I'd go for Jako Elmo Maguire Davies Robertson Snodgrass Clucas Jake Meyler Diomande Hernandez Get Jake back in his rightful place. Maguire played well against these last season. Bring on the new larkers as the game gets to the last 25. We'll have it sewn up by then. City to win 3-0.
The FA are ****s and have given Phelan Manager of the Month, thus cursing us. MOTM never win their next 4 games. FACT. The FA are also ****s for stopping our best ever owners from buying us. FACT. Burnley are ****s we seem cursed by, they're our main bogey team and always beat us. FACT. The refs a ****. No idea who it is tbh, but, they're all ****s, and this one will have it in for us. FACT. Rich people, who got that way walking over the corpses of hardworking, honest folks like all of us from Ull, and by being lucky ****s, are tossing us around like an old used dog toy. They have nowt but contempt for us and the working mans (and womans) game. FACT. The players are all upset by the off field shenanigans, it's important they know who the owner is. They're not even sure who the ****ing manager is. We're a laughing stock and are nailed on for relegation. FACT. However, we are The Mighty ****ing Tigers. We laugh in the face of such bollocks. FACTAFUCKINGMUNDO. Regulation 0-4 to us. Nailed on. You Ull.
Phelan finally has decisions to make After Hull City added to their famously threadbare squad on deadline day, the caretaker manager Mike Phelan and his staff will monitor the fitness of Ahmed Elmohamady and Abel Hernández after the duo clocked up more than 13,000 air miles between them during the international break. Elmohamady was part of the Egypt squad that played friendlies against South Africa and Guinea, while Hernández was a sparingly used substitute for Uruguay’s World Cup qualifiers against Argentina and Paraguay. If he is deemed too jetlagged to play at Burnley on Saturday, Will Keane will almost certainly make his debut following a £1m transfer from Manchester United. Beyond that, the record signing Ryan Masonlooks like being the only new arrival to break straight into the first team. Phelan is now faced with the tricky task of blooding new recruits without upsetting the players who have served him so well thus far. For the first time he has options and the manner in which he uses them could dictate whether or not he gets the job on a full-time basis.
Burnley is second only to Bath as a treasure trove of Greek ruins from the Etruscan period. A genteel seaside town it is home to the largest colony of Great Auks outside the old Soviet Union. The launch point of Operation Overlord during the Crimea War, Burnley is famous for being the final resting place of both Herman Goering and her muse Dame Patti Smith, whose Horses album was mainly written on the platform of Burnley's main railway station. Burnley is unique for being the only city in England never to have had a Premier League football team whose name cannot be coloured in, in felt tip. There is no road access to Burnley and the only ferry doesn't fly on Tuesday's in honour of the mediaeval bye law which bans certain things at random. Famous Burnolien's include Maurice Gibb, Shaun Ryder and Queen Beatrice of Yak. The currency is lard and processed buttermilk.

Prior to that, they had turned out in a selection of kits, ranging from green to black and amber. Burnley's 30-match unbeaten run in 1921 stood as the longest stretch without defeat in league history until Arsenal bettered it in 2003-04.

The river Brun is the shortest river in Britain and runs through Burnley. Burnley are the only club to have been managed by an eight year old chimney sweep. - http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Burnley
Maybe the eight year old chimney sweep is on our managerial candidate list? He'd play the sweeper system and brush other teams aside in a cloud of soot.
The only time I have ever been to Turf Moor was in early 1962 when my boss in Lancaster took me to see them play Man City. It was a " Goalathon"with Burnley winning 6-3. The next home match they won 7-1 and that season they finished runners up in Div 1.
