Been lucky so far, certainly need to bring a couple of loanees in next month. A midfielder and striker would put us in a very strong position. Fingers crossed!

Pleased with the signing of Barnes, will give Dyche an option now. Thought at times yesterday we were excellent, but we gave Yeovil a few chances which a better side would have taken. Another 3 points but we really need to beat the improving Wednesday next. Exciting second half to season by the looks of it.

We're sorry to see "No.9, Ashley Barnes" go. He's hit some good form this season.

Hope he works out for you guys. (Not too well, or course)

Just got to make sure he keeps away from the red cards........

Just back from QPR. What a game! Before the match I would have settled for the point, but after being 3-2 up I feel a little disappointed.

We need to start winning again, but what a season so far, and what a player Ings is.

I was disappointed after being 2-1 up, I thought we would go on to win 3/4-1, We played well and pressed hard for the first 20minutes but was a blow to lose Philips.

Overall as a hoops fan I'm happy as we didn't have Charlie and gave two debuts to Doyle and Maiga who came up trumps.

Ings and Vokes a huge threat as usual, a great game smile

3-1 against Milwall. Back to second, fingers crossed for a good game at Bournemouth next week.

Massive game at Barnsley on Tuesday, win that and I think 4 more points will be enough for promotion. Considering the players out yesterday at Watford (Ings, Vokes, Marney, Trippier) I thought we were excellent.

I went yesterday and wasn't at all optimistic. We had probably all of our best players outand I thought the way we didn't give up and ended up with a point was fantastic. I think that's convinced me we're the real deal and will now go up; that's also one game less for qpr and derby to gain points from.

Hoping that we get Marney, Trippier and Ings back for Tuesday, you can see the quality in them. Edgar and Treacy I though very poor yesterday. Baird and Barnes look like good signings though.

Finally.

Well deserved, I'd have been happy with mid table mediocrity at the start of the season, so what a result.

Big test for Sean next year, it will be interesting to see how he copes with the PL.

I'm sure he has his silly quotes ready for next season whenever you lose a game or happen to be top of the table for however long.

Congrats on coming up with the foxes smile

One of the guys from work was there today, due to one of the other lads being a Burnley fan we had the radio on, not that we needed it as we could hear the roaring/chanting/singing across town smile

Well done Burnley, enjoy your season in the top flight!

Unbelievable job that Dyche has done there and by winning games and not relying on others losing games too. Congrats chaps on the promotion!! clap

QPR fan here.

I was just subjected to an extended handshake and public hug from my Burnley-supporting mate in the office.

Taken in the spirit it was intended :-)

Cograts guys, Burnley have shown how it should be done.

Good luck next season.
