Mattio Posted 9 August, 2019 Posted 9 August, 2019 Any chance of this being cancelled? It’s only spells of heavy rain at the moment but I’m guessing Turf Moor doesn’t have the most modern drainage.
Lighthouse Posted 9 August, 2019 Posted 9 August, 2019 Any chance of this being cancelled? It’s only spells of heavy rain at the moment but I’m guessing Turf Moor doesn’t have the most modern drainage. Nah, just patchy showers.

ally_uk Posted 9 August, 2019 Posted 9 August, 2019 2-1 Saints Che to score in debut! Feeling optimistic.
whelk Posted 9 August, 2019 Posted 9 August, 2019 One all for the hundredth year in a row. Aye but that was before Ralph 1-3 Adams, ings and hojberg
Fookwit Posted 9 August, 2019 Posted 9 August, 2019 Going to be tough at a wet and windy Turf Moor. Away fans having to wear last seasons replica kit will upset some middle aged grown men. Saints will take the lead and play decent football but probably concede a soft headed goal after 85 minutes

Mr Brightside Posted 9 August, 2019 Posted 9 August, 2019 I'm probably going to park at Burnley Cricket club which is literally next to the ground, last year I parked on Doris Street park which is small but only about 500 meters up the road from the ground. Other options here: https://www.awaygames.co.uk/away-day-guides/burnley-away/#1467752466853-8bcf3018-3343 Cheers.
niceandfriendly Posted 10 August, 2019 Posted 10 August, 2019 They'll certainly score late on, just a case of whether they'll be equalising or grabbing a late winner. Probably the latter, 2-1 Burnley.
OttawaSaint Posted 10 August, 2019 Posted 10 August, 2019 Approaching midnight here in South Western Quebec (I live across the river from Ottawa in la belle province). Had a couple of beers after my match tonight (we lost 4-1, bah). Really looking forward to the season and seeing what Saints have in store for us. Would love a comfortable 2-0 win but thinking a 2-2 draw will be what we get. Hopefully it’s us scoring at the death rather than them.
GarrettIvo Posted 10 August, 2019 Posted 10 August, 2019 Ugh. I am trying to have a positive attitude, but as long as that ***** Barnes is in their squad I feel he'll always do something against us. Also it's a **** ground that we rarely win at. So yeah that all screams 1-1 to me.
Saint_Tony Posted 10 August, 2019 Posted 10 August, 2019 Expecting a fairly comfortable win. Ralph is very happy with the levels shown in pre-seaon. Burnley 1-3 (Redmond, Adams x2) Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Convict Colony Posted 10 August, 2019 Posted 10 August, 2019 Do we really need to play 3 at the back v Burnley or will this be our first proper attempt at a 4-2-2-2 ?
Shroppie Posted 10 August, 2019 Posted 10 August, 2019 (edited) Do we really need to play 3 at the back v Burnley or will this be our first proper attempt at a 4-2-2-2 ?Yes and no. But three at the back lets Valery and Bertrand get forward more and we can play with 1.5 DMs - Hojbjerg and JWP, so it's not completely defensive.

Saint_Ash Posted 10 August, 2019 Posted 10 August, 2019 Will be very excited before kick off and it will end 1 all and be quite boring and people will whinge.
Suhari Posted 10 August, 2019 Posted 10 August, 2019 Che with a early goal.... inside 3 minutes. (scuffed though). Saints win 2-1.

Wsaint Posted 10 August, 2019 Posted 10 August, 2019 My money is on che Adams first goalscorer and saints 2-1 win. Sent from my ANE-LX1 using Tapatalk
SNSUN Posted 10 August, 2019 Posted 10 August, 2019 Have put a fiver in non-equal quantities on Adams and Valery to score at any time. I definitely think today’s game has draw written all over it, which is not a bad result to kick off the season with. That said IF we can win, it takes the pressure off the big fixtures we have coming...
Dusic Posted 10 August, 2019 Posted 10 August, 2019 Hojbjerg on bench, Romeu starting.Could only be due to some kind of illness/fitness issue presumably?
beatlesaint Posted 10 August, 2019 Posted 10 August, 2019 Stephens starts in back 3. Jay Rod sub for them.
jamesfp1 Posted 10 August, 2019 Posted 10 August, 2019 If someone could provide an explanation please, that would be great. Thanks.
Shroppie Posted 10 August, 2019 Posted 10 August, 2019 And Romeu for Hojbjerg. Think it's a team that can move into 4231. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
Baird of the land Posted 10 August, 2019 Posted 10 August, 2019 Interesting that hojberg is on bench and that Stephens is preferred to yoshi.
beatlesaint Posted 10 August, 2019 Posted 10 August, 2019 Leitch says Hojbjerg has been ill. it had to be something like that. its the choice at central defence that makes no sense

whelk Posted 10 August, 2019 Posted 10 August, 2019 Interesting that hojberg is on bench and that Stephens is preferred to yoshi. Indeed. What does Ralph see that we all miss?
sadoldgit Posted 10 August, 2019 Posted 10 August, 2019 It was always going to be a choice between him and Yoshida today so I don’t know what is so funny?
beatlesaint Posted 10 August, 2019 Posted 10 August, 2019 It was always going to be a choice between him and Yoshida today so I don’t know what is so funny? no, I lost my sene if humour at 2pm when that teamsheet came out. Note to Jack - keep your fkin arm down in the penalty area son !
