    Cheers guys. Enjoyed your company. Great win but better that the guys held the ball in possession really well, they had tricks and one touches, they worked for each other. It looked promising. Nine from three is now a real possibility. <cheers>

    And Brighton putting our win over them into context : Brighton 3 Man U 1 after 69 mins :emoticon-0137-clapp:emoticon-0137-clapp:emoticon-0137-clapp

    And it ends 3-2 with a last minute consolation pen for MU. Well done the seasiders.

    Who will score the goals? Can we win away? Have we had any good new signings? DOes JG know what he is doing?

    One swallow doesn't make a summer, however, we are looking good.



    I'd also like to give a mention to our "new" LB. He looks great this season

    What a surprise to come home to. No idea of the result until I came in. It looks as if Javi does have something to offer, although I suspect that there will be sterner tests ahead.

    Dyche moaning about a Hughes tackle saying it could have been a red?

    Anyone seen it? Just making a fuss over nothing because they lost?

    Did I put the social media equivalent of the commentator's curse on Burnley?

    Apparently most of the Burnley fans think not. Sour grapes from what I've been reading.

    Only seen it a couple of times, Mark. I thought it was worse the first time I saw it at full speed, but slow-mo from the other side of the pitch, I think, showed he was trying for the ball. Mistimed and full-blooded, perhaps, but not really malicious. Definitely a foul with need of a card. Yellow was right, I thought.

    I didn't see it. Those Albinos are dangerous.

    Well they probably like a good old hard nosed tackle anyway!

    As would their manager...

    It was nothing that Dychey would've baulked at doing himself.

    A YC for Hughes was about right.

    Think Hughes also slipped on the astroturf.

    Gracia has also moved his family over in the summer so maybe a bit of continuity going to happen!

    I thought he got the ball, it was a bit clumsy and maybe not helped by the astro turf, the Burnley player got up quickly without injury and accepted Hughes apology. Vardy got a red for what I thought was a fair tackle (he got the ball) at the w/e. Seems that now you can't make a good fair clattering tackle without getting admonished - the game has diminished as a result.

    The problem with Vardy was yes he got the ball then with his boot up high he got the player just behind his knee That would have been a fair tackle for "chopper" Welborne

    He often looks like he has a beef about something, but he seems to play better for it.
