Yes - but the International break really deflates me, especially when the first game back is away.

I hate the International break

Quite hopeful of a result tomorrow. Won 3 of our last 4 four up there, and only lost 2 of last 9 visits.

Quite a change in personel from our last game up there though.

Stockdale
Bruno
Calde
Greer
Chicksen
Dunk
Tex
JFC
Holla
Agustien

If that lot can come away with a 0-2 win......

No one interested in the football starting again?

Oh if we must.............but it only deflects attention away from important topics like whether JC's jacket has elbow patches, or do we agree that Gideon looks like a chap who would have worn a feather boa on his stag do. Football, football, football........sigh

as a Claret's fan I'm hoping for a sound win, for the first time this season we've got a midfield where we're not asking a winger to play in the middle. Barton might be marmite but he's a CM playing in the middle. Hopefully Arfield can do what he does best out wide.

It's the first time we've got a full side to pick from, I wonder if Ward will be picked ahead of Mee. I'm surprised he hasn't played more often, at home versus a team we should beat you'd want two attacking full backs. Upfront Vokes is still getting fit and hopefully forming a decent partnership with Gray.

So, expect Barton see red after 10 mins and we'll hold on for a 1-1 draw....

I quite like Burnley (as well your near neighbours, Blackburn if I'm honest). Your team taking points off the plastic biscuit gimps was one of the non-Albion highlights of the past few seasons, and I've never met a Burnley fan I haven't liked.

But here, there is special reason to hope you win with aplomb. You're playing Bolton. A bigger bunch of bell-ends, you couldn't wish to meet. Hope you smash them. :thumbsup:

I was really hopeful after that game, we played so well. It all went downhill after that, until the end of December.

I feel uneasy about tomorrow, as Leeds can't win at home and we are unbeaten. It seems to be an easy task, but football isn't like that.

We like to help teams out of the ruts they're in so expect a Leeds win tomorrow.

I take your point but there is no team in the Football League who I want less to get promoted than QPR.

Even Portsmouth:eek:
