Free hit, but Burnley look unbeatable. Mammoth task for any club in this division.
But
Funnier things have happened and they are 'due a defeat'.

Letās hope Headley is ok after going off injured.
Lowton wonāt be able to play so we may need to use Boyle.
Going to be backs against the wall and a big contrast in styles. Think that will help us though. Keep two up front and play fast and direct, we have an outside chance.

They've got a long midweek trip to Millwall so I'm sure Warnock will be looking to get on the front foot early.
They're the best side in the division but this is the Championship so you never know?

Burnley struggled at Luton, who play a similar direct style to us.. Burnley play possession football so it'll be interesting to see how Warnock sets us up for this one.
We can't afford to just give them the game to keep the goal difference down so I think we'll go for the jugular tbh. Try and get a goal or two then just play counter attack.
I think we'll beat Burnley..

We just need to go for it every game. Win some, loose sum. 14 draws means we are probably down.

Love how much yesterday has shown what a win does for confidence. Warnock is playing mind games he will set us up to give us the best chance of getting something which to me says he is pragmatic and wants to win rather than see how much we can keep it down which is what others have done. Thereās no pressure on us to get anything Saturday and thatāll be how he goes about telling the players. Yesterday showed we have ability going forward to worry them. Strength and pace and a now new found direct style of play. We might get a hiding but I think itāll be closer than most outsiders will have you think. Luton weāre unlucky not to get anything yesterday and the blunts lost 3-0. This is the championship anything can happen. UTFT

They have looked nailed on promotion material from early on and Kompany looks like a potential top manager in the making. However the games come thick and fast in the Championship and our lads will be straining at the leash to get back out on the field. You never know...

That first game of the season was a bit of an outlier in some respects.
Both teams coming into it off the back of a disappointing end to the season before, new Mgrs and personnel changes.
Although we didnāt play well, I didnāt think Burnley would have gone on to where they find themselves now.
Theyāre obviously a good team, but once you get that belief in your system it also plays into the mindset of the opposition.
I havenāt a clue how itāll pan out of course, but if anyone can get our players to realise that theyāre beatable, itās Neil Warnock.
As ever, itāll be about the first goal.
Even though Brum scored early on yesterday, weād had the lions share of play up to that point, so there was no point in changing anything so early, we just kept on doing the same thing and the rewards came our way.
A point would be a fantastic result for us, 3 points would be unbelievableā¦

It might be interesting to observe what a ānew ageā Mgr like Kompany thinks of old school Warnockā¦
I also wonder if thereās continued media coverage of Warnock himself, does that take a little pressure off the lads on the pitch?
Who knows ehā¦

I probably donāt study the opposition enough to work out who the best side weāve played are, probably because itās been dire to watch most of our performances against any teamā¦ Are they due a home defeat? Nearly happened last home game for them. Can we go one better? š¤š¤

Nearly happened last home game for them. Can we go one better? š¤š¤ It took the Clarets a few games to really get going at the start of the season unsurprisingly, and they are pretty damn good for a team that started off without an out and out goal scorer. Their biggest battering was vs Sheffield Utd who exploited Burnley's lack of height. Let's hope Neil's necromancy can summon up some 6" 4' behemoths to destabilise the Claret's defence. Get the ball in the box and get lots of players up there for set pieces. If Town simply try and get up and at 'em they will probably be well beaten, as Burnley keep hold of the ball well and have some nippy players who turn defence into attack quickly. They are also patient. Burnley have a knack of keeping going in tight games and scoring in the last quarter. It isn't likely to be easy....... A Benny and hot for anyone? UTT!

I'm not surprised they've walked the league.

Head and shoulders the best team Iāve seen this season. They played us off the park that first game and should have put more past us. However, they are due a home defeat and with Warnock in charge, Iām a lot more optimistic than I was just a week ago (when I had none) we can go there and surprise them.

Can't help but think we'll lose this. Stand a much better chance with Warnock though than any other manager we've had this season. I'd gladly take a point, 3 would be a dream. However I see us losing this game
