Blimey. Second in the table and only 33 points from safety.

I thought Dyche was the right kind of manager for us, but I had a few doubts last year.

UTC good result at Leeds

[12TS]

Another 3 points. Starting to get a bit worried that we will have to sell Danny Ings in Jan now.

And now top, until tomorrow at least. Fingers crossed no injuries.

Great start for us, but a long way to go yet. Having said that, if we're lucky with injuries/suspensions then I'd be disappointed if we're not in and around the top six come May.

Jones and Heaton have been a great bit of business, far better than the players they replaced.

[12TS]

I'm off to Ipswich on Saturday to see them for the first time this season. It's not a good ground for us historically so fingers crossed. I'd be happy with 3 points from the next 9, but if we are the real deal we should do better than that.

[12TS]

Well! What a great team performance against a decent side. Arfield was my MOTM but there were lots of candidates.

I am travelling up from Sussex for the QPR match, looking forward to it. I didn't make Ipswich, but my dad/brother went and said it was another really solid display.

[12TS]

Hope you enjoyed it. What a result!

I watched the game on the highlights this am, and the Ings goal was a superb team goal. Plotting my next trip, maybe Forest in a couple of weeks time.

[BMRuss]

Well done (from a QPR fan) I thought we would win that, revenge at Loftus road soon enough

[12TS]

Ah well. We're out of the cup now, we can concentrate on the league

[Nick_MSM]

The Ings goal was a cracker. I went to Millwall on Saturday, we certainly missed Marney as the intensity wasn't there. Still a point away after being 2-0 down is okay. Hopefully beat Howe on Saturday and we'll still be top

[Highway Star]

Nope, good draw today for us (Cherries fan). Good to see Burnley doing well, they are my wife's team.

[Nick_MSM]

International break has come at the right time I think. IMO Millwall and Bournemouth performances were below the standard we have set so far. I think Dyche needs to bring in a loanee or two. Some tough games coming up, if we come through those okay then we're really in a good position.

[12TS]

Would agree that the break has come at a good time; fingers crossed Ings doesn't get injured. Whilst we've dropped 4 points out of 6 I'm really please that we've come from behind, so we don't give in easily.

Next match is against Forest away so that's going to be a good test.

[12TS]

Back on top after the win at the weekend. Phew!

I'm off on Saturday to watch the match against Leicester, which will be the first time I've seen them in 2 months. Hoping for a good match, but I'm worried about Nugent. He always seems to score agsinst us.

Saints fan here. Looking forward to your boys visiting in the FA cup. Should be a good game as you are playing some really nice football

[12TS]

Wonder if Jay Rod will feature in the match? He's still highly revered in Burnley since he's a local lad, doubt he'd really want to score against us!

I think he might, but I bet he does not celebrate if he scores. He seems like a sensible chap

[12TS]

Back on top again. Hoping Christmas is kind to us with injuries.
