 As for his punting out to the left wing.  He was doing the same against Betis so i don't think it is wholly his decision but a tactic. 

 

If you swap Tierney with Alonso he's been doing it every possible chance for about 6 months, not sure why people are so suprised by it.  It's clearly something he's been asked to do, especially with no Davies outlet these days

Apart from the fumble in the first minute I did not think Bogdan did much wrong. He caught and punched everything properly after that.

A couple of knobheads behind me were screaming abuse at him after that first fumble. Calling him all the names under the sun. I had to have a go back. Can't believe people got so worked up in the first 30 seconds. They are in for a long season.....

Someone near me spent the whole game calling him shit / twat / useless cunt etc... he went mental when CYL wanted the ball in midfield early and Bogdan decided not to give it him. Bogdan realised CYL had no white shirts near him but was surrounded by five Burnley players and though better of it, quite right too. Apart from that fumble he did most things right, commanded his area much better than recent seasons. Doesn't deserve the abuse he gets.

Haha...

 

I heard the best chant I've heard for a long time outside the cricket club on Saturday...one guy pointing to two of burnleys not so finest looking women shouting "get your Finns out for the lads"

 

Very funny.

 

Not as funny as the time I saw a grown man flicking his lighter on and off stood directly behind Peter crouch taking a throw-in shouting 'burn the freak burn the freak'!! Haha the guy was about 50

 

That is very funny.

 

Are we ever gonna break out the Darren Pratley song again?

I think Bogdan forgot Kevin Davies had gone. Hopeful punts up field, I'd hoped, were a thing of the past.

 

Comment from a Bolton fan which I thought worthy of note:

At half time when Burnley stadium announcer introduced Bertie the Bee, lad at the side of me shouted that it wasn't even a real bee. "No shit," said I, 'not like us with a real lion!'

 

Another point of note: The smoke bombs fuck shoes up.

 

Atletico Bilbao have a real lion - I've seen it, it's also cross-eyed - like that one of the telly in the 70s.

That's brilliant. Does the bloke sit esl front row left of the half way line? There's a group there that no matter how the games going just shout abuse at the linesman.

alonso was very good in the air, mind, so an understandable ploy

Agreed, but Tierney beat Real Betis' 5ft 2" winger every time last week too.

 

Not saying it will come off every time, just that it's obviously a plan, as I'm sure some experts that sit around me think he's just struggling to keep the ball in play

Medo is better than most Premier League players. Incredible signing and our best player easily!

 

As you were

 

He's great, isn't he - some fucknut on that Twatter the other day said something like "I've not seen the big rave about him" referring to Medo. Some thick fuckers about.
