If it counted we would be leading by a goal to nil.

We have at least been compact and more difficult to break down than usual, but we have got to do a lot better on the counter.

Our attacking third pass completion is 50-something % JFC

Blimey. That was a dreary half.

First and last, "Rhys Carr's Sky Blue Army" being sung here tonight.

Is it only me that thinks we haven't actually been that bad, considering who we are playing and their home form? They haven't had a shot on target either.

It's certainly been a solid professional defensive performance so far, although Burnley haven't really had much tempo or imagination.
A bit odd that we have so many forward players in the squad and never really take it to anyone.

Lads are battling well, just nothing has got going going forward, I'd get Ephron on and get at them

They look like scoring as much as we do, which will help.

We haven’t a shot on or off target.

Sakamoto and torp both guilty of one pass aimlessly anywhere. Saka 100% needs to be more confident on the ball as he's panicking every time when we need some bravery

Having said all that, it's 0-0 away to title favs Burnley and we look rock solid. Not sure why people are moaning here. Guess we just love a moan

We're actually anticipating threats much more effectively.

Definitely helps that Sheaf and Eccles are dropping a bit deeper to support the backline though.

Carr is trying to sneak a win, he doesn’t care about attractive football tonight. If he ends his interim appointment undefeated with 2 draws and a win against 3 of the top 4 he looks instantly more attractive as an appointment to a League 1/League 2 team. It’s much better for his CV to be defensive and try snatch a win

Wind turbines given up. Too dark for solar. Installed the wrong batteries.

Don’t look anything like they have in previous seasons on the ball.

Agree with that, but putting extra pressure on ourselves by careless use of the ball.

I’m recording it and will be burning to DVD. DM me for orders.

Jokes aside, we’ve been solid defensively. These are decent and we’ve contained them well. I won’t be too harsh. In isolation a point here would be a good result.

Still a fair amount of dodgy passes in not great areas of the pitch.

Got to be satisfied so far. Nullify them and try and nick it on the break. We at least look organised .

I agree that we've played quite well. But we have clearly set up to simply clear the ball whenever we can and not worry too much about where it goes. It just looks like a team playig against a team way ahead of them and play for 0-0. I hope we hold them off until 65 mins and then make 3 chages and go for it.....

Can understand the Burnley fans frustration with Parker, so much talent in that squad but they are an awful watch

First game I’ve missed this season and it’s been an interesting perspective watching it on TV as opposed to being at the game.

We look good and could see us nicking this!

Bragging rights are at stake here as I’m watching the game with my Burnley supporting flatmate!

To be fair to him, Bassette didn't look off for his 'goal'. Dangerous player on the shoulder.

Still hate the kick it out of play from kickoff. Why do we do it?
