Manchester City 3-3 Burnley
The Guardian (Free subscription) | 11/07/2009
City will jet out tomorrow for a sunshine break in Abu Dhabi in embarrassed, rather than holiday mood after dropping two home points against homespun opponents who had previously lost every away game this season. Leading 3-2 after 87 minutes, the money men from Eastlands were left deflated by their fifth draw in succession in the Premier League, Burnley gaining their point with a close-range finish...

Mike Jones Does Phil Brown No Favors
EPL Talk (Free subscription) | 11/02/2009
I recently asked the question: When Will Phil Brown Go?, & it seems in all actuality I’m no closer to an accurate answer of that question than when I posed it last week. Hull City lost another football match this weekend at Turf Moor to current over-achievers Burnley, 2-0. Two Graham Alexander goals were enough [...]

Liverpool 4-0 Burnley
Oh, You Beauty... (Free subscription) | 09/12/2009
Reina Johnson Carragher Skrtel Insua Gerrard Lucas Benayoun Kuyt Riera Torres Goals: Benayoun 27’ 61’ 82’ Kuyt 41’ Perfect. No complaints. I had hoped it’d be similar to Stoke, and it’s the exact same result. Four goals (and Liverpool should have had more), a clean sheet (with no frights from set plays), a Benayoun hat-trick, and the ability to rest players like...

Burnley Season Preview
Fantasy Premier League (Free subscription) | 08/11/2009
Burnley play football. That's what you hear about this club who after a disastrous start to last season came on late to win promotion via the Championship playoffs. Along the way they had an amazing Carling Cup run, knocking off FOUR Premier League clubs before falling to Spurs. They are going to need that Cup run mentality week-in and week-out this season. And much as they did during that run, they...
