A few seconds of the 8 minutes were left. The part that pissed me off was that there was 8 minutes of stoppage time before their ballboys decided to go missing every time it went out for a throw. Should have played at LEAST another minute or two. He saw the fans starting to come on and bottled it.
I can see the back page now. "KNOCKOUT" with a picture of a shirtless French Tony celebrating his 94th minute winner. If that happens I will personally buy you AND big hilda a full english with TWO extra sausages.
Can we all just agree to not post any more here so this thread dies?
Burnley are in the premier league and bloody deserve it. It doesn't matter what the town is like FFS.
But buying the away kit without sponsors for £13 instead of getting it for £40 from the club shop is totally immoral and I couldn't possibly condone it. The one I linked is a totally different shirt, but the same VOLT colour :thumbsup:

Ok, so. This is what will happen
- Boro BATTER us for the first 20 minutes or so which is good. We ALWAYS ****ing lose when we start brightly.

His...
I went mental - as did much of the ground.
It was a late goal against a really good, in form team who made us look like schoolboys in the last playoffs. We had ten men. We didn't know what the Burnley result would be. We also didn't know if we'd have one more chance to win it.
We just won't...
I was sat 5m away in the North. Absolutely no way a pen. Knocky dived and got touched when he was 75% of the way down after the defender got the ball. I was surprised he wasn't booked tbh.
