- We've now scored in 27 consecutive PL games.
- But no clean sheet in 15 (since we beat Arsenal (A) on May 14th)
- Thats now equalled our longest winless run under RDZ (when he arrived) - 5 games.
- But we are still 7th, and our next 5 games are against the teams currently 20th, 16th, 12th, 9th and 19th.
- And our next game is v Ajax in the Europa League.

We’ll never have to play at that shit hole of a ground again!
My first visit - I was upstairs. Must say from everything on here I was expecting something far worse. Easy to get to and away from on the train. A proper old ground.

It did make me wonder what will happen to all the pubs in the vicinity when the ground moves over a mile away. They'll have had the football trade for 100+ years, and will lose the lot.



PS - they didn't remove my bottle top....

You could say the same If the new fan zone is successful at the Amex pubs will lose trade around the station on match days.

  • 6th or 7th in the Premier League after this gameweek.
  • Sheffield United (H), Nottm Forest (A), Chelsea (A), Brentford (H) and Burnley (H) in our next five league matches.
  • 3rd in our Europa League group, only one point behind leaders Marseille.
  • And we play at Ajax on Thursday.
Not too bad ;)

The most curious thing..
80% possesion according to the BBC but still can't win.

It's the points that count.
 




The positive is a great point that I didn’t think was ever coming in the second half - and it was always going to need a bit of luck and fair play to Mitoma for creating that luck.

I have to say that’s the first time in quite a while I’ve been bored stiff watching us play, just lots of shuffled possession generally going down the well defended blind alleys Dyche wanted us to go down. He’ll probably be spitting bricks it didn’t totally work for them - another positive!

Shout out to Dahoud who I thought was our one midfielder to play today with a bit of urgency. Fati and JP looked threatening but still too many rotten balls into them

Very happy to take a point and run today - was fearing the worst after the 1-5 drubbing and what with our leaky defence and shaky form. Bloody hate playing Dyche teams - would absolutely hate to have to watch that shyte every week if he managed us
