Stoke is a nice day out if you live in Burnley.
Burnley is surrounded by the most stunning countryside, and less than a couple of hours away from the Lake District.

Ashford is only 3 hours from Paris. That's not a justification for choosing to live there though.

I'd rather live in Burnley than Stoke. I wasn't aware you could walk to Paris from Ashford, but you can walk in the Forest of Bowland from Burnley.

Totally agree. Amazing scenery everywhere. Dyche and the players would live in stunning parts on the outskirts of the town or in the countryside.
Stoke has no redeeming features, and comprising several Potteries 'towns', has no real heart for a conurbation of a similar population to Brighton and Hove.

Most of Burnley's players, like many well-paid players of north-west teams, tend to live in "posh" Cheshire...Hale, Bowden (the Stockport and Macclesfield area. Top foreigners like Defour usually go for luxury apartments in Manchester (their WAG can go shopping).
Many Man City and Man United players are shacked up in the Cheshire/Peak District area. Also, Bronte country is only a stone's throw from Burnley and up-market Harrogate in west Yorkshire is not far away. Southgate lives there - that's why he is a frequent visitor to Turf Moor lately (Pope, Tarkowski, Cork, maybe Ben Mee).
We are his nearest PL team.As for April 28, if we need a point to make sure of 7th and you need a point for mathematic safety, I'm sure Dyche and Hughton could come to some arrangement
Not sure Tarkowski would stick to any agreement if Murray is playing.

East Sussex is near West Sussex.
That doesn't make either of them any more palatable.

The players must think they are safe the way they have been playing since Arsenal.
So you've come round to my way of thinking?

Same as CH first season after we won at Blackburn. We got lucky there as Millwall were worse than us.

It's not luck, it is what a relegation battle is. If you are in a relegation battle it is all about who is worse than you, stands to reason the teams below are going to drop points. I do find it funny people consider this luck that someone is worse.

Yep, I'm not convinced we are gonna get another point this season.
Fortunately, I think West Brom and Stoke won't catch us, and as long as Saints only get 1point from their next 2 then they wont either.

6 points needed to be mathematically safe of Stoke.
9 points needed to be mathematically safe of Southampton ( do your stuff, Leicester ! ).

I think it will work out for us, but I do think Southampton will beat Leicester.. Its going to be horribly tight but I think we may just sneak 3 or 4 more points. Can see us sneaking a draw at Burnley, and for some reason think we will pick up points against United and Spurs.. City away might be a possibility for something, as I don't believe that psychologically they will be able to keep the same intensity levels, but if we are safe by then they will hammer us - their less intense is far better than our less intense!!
Saints could actually lose their next two, win at Everton & Swansea and then draw at home to Man City (who might be on the beach by then).
That would then put them on 35 points and if we’re still on 35 points, chances are goal difference would be on their side.
Worst case scenario of course!

Personally I still think there is a lot of football to be played. It would be nice for us to get the points on the board ourselves rather than rely on everyone else not picking enough points to overtake us. It would be incredibly disappointing to get pipped to the post having lost 8 of the last 9 fixtures of the season and only picking up 1 point v Huddersfield.

It certainly is that time of the season to be stating the obvious.
I can think of alternative adjectives to ‘nice’ and ‘disappointing’ in those eventualities.
