I fucking hate them and I hope us, Forest, Leicester (and whoever they decide to target next while they avoid the big fish of City and Chelsea) bring the whole thing tumbling down.

It's gonna be absolutely barmy if the season finishes with these appeals still to happen.
Imagine 'the best league in the world' potentially not knowing who's bring relegated at the end of the season?!

I think the point is that 'we' say the same thing year after year.
When a manager is disliked, it's one of the repetitive accusations that gets made.
And it's been made year after year for....years!
I think we can all agree that as the last 4-5 years have gone on, our squad is getting smaller and worse in quality.
Whether it's Dyche or somebody else, it's gonna be a tough job for years to come. And I expect the same accusation(s) to be repeated during those years.

I'm honestly still amazed that we got 10 points for the first one, and everything that's followed from that has only increased the amazement.
It's all been handled so badly.

I'm expecting 2 at the most. Any more and the epl will expect us to appeal, even at 2 they will think "they will appeal this"
0-1 is my guess. If they give us 1 I'd still go after them. 
 
as a fan base we deserve a break. The last 3 years have been exhausting. This season is a shit show - a complete farce. 

I can really see us getting something from that game.
We have an interesting 4 games in quick succession coming up.
Chelsea, Forest, Liverpool & Brentford.
Imperative that we take points from Forest & Brentford.
Chelsea have a cup tie as mentioned above whilst Liverpool have a UCL away day, trip to Fulham & then play us at Goodison in the space of a week. (Whilst also playing West Ham 2 days after us)
There is an opportunity to pick up points from places we didn’t expect to get points here.
 

Absolute stonewall penalty. I could see it at the time.
But we don't get them. Exactly the same as Dom's against Bournemouth that wasn't given, and the Garnacho one that was given against us. Apparently there was one just like given in another game yesterday but I didn't see it and can't recall what game it was.

Aaah. Gerald. Having a great season.

No. Because I don't think he's clueless and incompetent. At all.
We've played some of the best football we've seen in years under him. Not hard to beat, but still.
He said he wanted us to play better. He wanted to be able to play better. We were playing good football.
The only reason we werent/aren't higher up the table is because we couldn't score...
HOWEVER...where he absolutely does deserve criticism, and where my view of him has dwindled, is how he has gone about the long winless streak.
I'll hold judgement until the end of the season.
I do want to see more from us. I want us to get back to how we were those first few months of the season.

Based on yesterday's battling showing it would appear that he still has the support of at least 11 of the squad.

Yeah. For me it's more the statement of deliberately playing it long...like it was a master stroke for this game that we've not seen before 😂

He's come out with some weird stuff recently. I guess that's what pressure can do to you.

I don't really have an issue with that being the plan for Burnley tbh. It probably is the way to go against them - press them into making mistakes, and when we have it get the ball up the pitch as quickly as possible so their shite defenders are pressurised (and we can only do that by hitting it long because we lack pace).
I would've tweaked it a little bit when it became apparent very quickly that the wind was going to be an issue. Too many times Pickford went long and the wind stopped the ball going where it was intended.

You hide it well...

My brother goes to all home games I've been to 3/4 this season - the wins against Newcastle and Burnley in the cup I felt fine after.....  watching games at home I relieve the stress by venting on the forum. Can't do it at the game 

Well, that was not pleasant to watch. And I'm not talking about the actual football there because we did actually play some alright stuff at times, but it was only ever in short bursts and never a spell where we keep the pressure on.
But when we had those bursts of looking like we wanted to win we made opportunities. We just didn't take those opportunities. Without being great I thought we were the better side and should have won by more than one goal but we made things harder, and more nerve-wracking, than they needed to be.
We must improve on maintaining pressure, especially in these games against the sides around us.

Unbeaten in 2. What a run this has been!!!
