Astonishing miss from the Burnley striker

I wasn't astonished.  

 

He's one of those players that seems to have all the skills but can't use them all at once.

We'll end up having played Brentford 4 times in the space of 45 days (just over 6 weeks) including the two league games, which is mental. 

 

27th Dec - League (A) 

5th Jan - FA Cup (A) 

15th Jan - FA Cup Replay (H) 

10th Feb - League (H) 

 

Have you lot ever played one team so many times in such a short space of time?

Wimbledon in 1996/97 we played twice in league games within six weeks and a two legged cup semi final. Think it was all within two months.

 

Just looked- four games between 18th January and 11th March so 53 days.

Reckon the Tyne-Wear Derby is the biggest in the UK.

 

Leicester and Coventry are nowhere near really, in terms of fierceness.

Hard to beat Celtic Rangers on a number of levels but Tyne Wear is definitely quite high up compared to the others.

 

For a start, I doubt they'll be singing 'We Sunderland and Newcastle, we're all on our own'  today.

Horrible kit clash this is. Surely Newcastle should have been made to wear their away kit.

Lots of viewers complaining on Twitter. Welcome to the world of the colourblind.

I was thinking that too, the difference in shorts colour isnt really enough for me.

Game over. Terrible defending.

[Nalis]

Sunderland seem to be going for it now, pity it took until they went 2 nil down.

[ARTY_FOX]

Disappointed in the Sunderland Newcastle game tbf. 

[filbertway]

Stoke playing a bunch of ressies and Brighton going close to full strength...Iverson is gonna have a busy debut

And having missed the Maidstone game they’re now left with egg on their faces again.

[isaidno]

Well done Maidstone. Sticking 2 fingers up to the TV companies.

How was this not on the TV?

I reckon Newcastle's Gordon, has taken on the mantle of the new "rolling Ramsey".    What a diving, feigning-injury cheating oik

[David Hankey]

Birmingham far better off without Rooney then.
