Had it stayed 11 vs 11, I'm sure it would've been far more exciting, but as the tackle warranted a red, it didn't.
Burnley with 10 men are about as entertaining as watching paint dry with a patch of grass growing next to you. We tried our best to break them down, but it's hard when they've got 10 men on the goaline.
It was very frustrating. We had some cracking chances. Tommy Miller hit the crossbar with a shot out of nowhere, and Alan Lee went close in the first 2 minutes. Every cross we attempted to make was either smothered by their goalie, or was straight into one of their players. Whenever the ball was in our half, they only had two people up there, and their time wasting was shambolic.
Overall though, it has to be said, it was quite a fair result, as they defended annoyingly strongly. Pablo was not on the form we've seen him in recently, and every time he got the ball three Burnley players descended on him...
Good to see Jordan Rhodes come on. He should've come on a little bit earlier though...
A great shame about Sito, who's got concussion after a clash of heads. Poor guy. He's in hospital overnight.
Anyway, 6th at Christmas.
Hope any Town fans who read this have a very happy Christmas.
Now we turn our attentions to Leicester and Coventry... I'm crazily optimistic, and I don't know why.
