Lawton. Specific examples. 98 mins at Hull. Made a half heartened attempt to clear the ball. Had he either put it out for a throw in or took the player out for a foul we could well have won. QPR at home. Headed it straight to their player nowhere near the goal keeper who scored. 2nd half let the guy run past him without any attempt at a challenge and only poor finishing meant we got a point. Blackpool away. Got in a tangle with other town players but when the ball ran free made no attempt to challenge which led to the 90 min equaliser that cost us a point. I am sure there are other examples but these are the only specific ones I can come up with Can we at least get his name right? Lowton It’s not even complicated

I’m going tomorrow and believe we can get something.
It’s bizarre that we comfortably beat them at Turf Moor in the cup just over 12 months ago but now apparently anything other than a battering would be one of the biggest results ever.
It wouldn’t, it’s Burnley not Man Utd.
Come on Town

What position are you playing him..? He's a right back. That's it. Agree. But. He’s been played at left back mostly would you believe. Was at left central defender last week and had a cracking game. Not really understanding what people expect from a recognised right back. Left centre back..? Bit harsh to critise him if that's where you've played him.

Strange how things play out. I bet you'd struggle to find any claret tomorrow who has a bad word to say about Lowton.

At least Lawton won’t be available. He has already been partially responsible for late equalisers at Hull and Blackpool. He has clearly come to town to stay match fit but I don’t think I have seen a loan signing so little commitment on the field. Could Burnley please take him back and save some money for us What about his last performance?

Everything starts in defence and he was throwing himself at everything.

I’m giving my prediction tonight as up early tomorrow for TWO funerals sadly... The first is a real character Isa who lived into her 91st year and she just slipped away - her granddaughter Screachy (Sunday name Liz) is one of ma bestest buddies ever and I need to be there for the family, That one is at 11am but I need to get the bus at 9.45am as this will enable a booze up at the wake - exactly what Isa -x- would want !
The second one at 3.30pm sadly is a great friend of myself and Isa’s granddaughter Screachy and has sadly been taken at 47 with ovarian cancer 💔 Louise (Loosey) -x- was part of a group of Lassies that I hung about with many moons ago, great times at the dancin’ - underage driving, underage drinking - the lot - so tomorrow I’m not gonna get any footy as it’s the first time in ma 52 years that I’ve been to two send offs in the one day 😢
Anyway - The wakes will do for the booze - not a day to celebrate tomorrow for Westie so no usual pub crawl, however I am hoping that Town can bring a little light to ma day by way of what I’d consider to be a sensational point at Burnley !
I think we’ll just fall short - I don’t think we will get a hammering but perhaps a narrow loss once again - though of course the old heart always hopes for the win even if the head says different -
PREDICTION = Burnley 2 v Huddersfield Town 1

I think we can win tomorrow, pure magical thinking of course. But I will have some of that 9/1 regardless of what a hopeless task it apparently is.

Feel strangely excited about today. Hope its not a case of 'after the Lord Mayor's show', though. Hoping to see Simpson play a part again, thought he was terrific last week.

I am sure there are other examples but these are the only specific ones I can come up with Hull was Helik's fault, he misread the ball completely and ran straight past it. I'm not sure how you can pin that on Lowton at all.

Evening Folks. Claret here, hope you're well. Looking forward to this one, always enjoy the Udders matches with two proper clubs going head to head. Warnock seems to be massively down playing your prospects ahead of the game, sure you'll be fired up. We've obviously been going well and have had a few out with injuries but we've got strength in depth for the first time ever. Kompany's worked miracles this year... Those of you parking at the cricket club, be warned, you get kept in the carpark till the crowds have cleared so there's no quick getaway. Its decent pre match though for away fans. If you need any advice on pubs etc, let me know, happy to help. And yes....we are due a defeat.... Is there anywhere else to park other than the cricket club? Need to make an early getaway so will probably miss our last minute winner.

Lowton defended well last week but still made some awful passes. Surprised at just how poor he has been in possession

Knock heart out of favour as the rumours suggest the new management don’t fancy him. A bit disappointing if that’s the case as hes one of our few potential game changers.

Ruffels in the squad last week, not involved at all this week.

Shame that Simpson misses out with injury - he looked a handful last week.
A bit gutted that Knockhaert isn’t at least on the bench.

Lets not start daft stupid rumours, every week MF was falling out with someone. Warnock will not have fallen out with AK. he came on last week , he may have picked up a little knock. Warnock said anyone with a slight knock does not play against Burnley

Worth bearing in mind we have 2 home games coming up next Sat and the following Tues, so may be an element of rotation here?

I think Warnock will have to get a good tune out of all that side to have a chance of coming away with anything. Suspect without Hoggy and AK Burnley will have too much nous for us. UTT
