It is now time to switch to a new Money AM football blog as the world cup is now over and we all look to the future.....World cup 2010 is over, Bravo Espana, and Forlan, once again and bring on the new season !.....I never expected the last thread to be such a success...thanks all.... so this new one might go on for years without the need to edit the title...we shall see...

Sorry Stan not Arsenal either, it appears you know nothing.
2517

Who then?

Manchester United to name stand after Bobby Charlton

Better late then never I suppose.

Agreed Stan a brilliant player and a gentleman from what I know.
2517

I suppose you will be praying for a Leeds win tonight. what about tomorrow Hull v Brighton, looks more and more like a play-off place for The Clarets.
2517

So you don't support anyone.

Ed: Dirty Leeds to win and the other two to draw would suit.

That'll put you in 4th with the fast improving Owls breathing down your neck. You gotta admit it doesn't look good for automatic promotion for your team.
2517

It's looking very good from here.

I hope you get promotion for your sake Stan, maybe that should be for your wife's sake because you'll be unbearable if they fail.
2517

Wife says I'm unbearable now so not going up would make absolutely no difference -):

..But of course Burnley are going up.

There's a very good reason why no one should fear Sheff. Wed either George as regards promotion.

Sam Vokes scored his 10th goal of the season to earn victory over Nottingham Forest and keep Burnley in second place in the Championship table.

A resolute rearguard and some fine goalkeeping from Dorus de Vries kept Forest level in the first half.

And despite improving after the break, they trailed when Vokes anticipated a clever Andre Gray dummy and swept the ball in.

Forest pressed late on but the hosts held on without too much alarm.

The Reds struggled to create opportunities throughout against a defence which has now not conceded a goal in winning three of their last four games.

And only Hull's victory at Ipswich prevented Burnley from going top of the table.

They had to be patient after finding De Vries in fine form to deny David Jones, Gray and Vokes in the first period.

Forest could have gone ahead after the break but Jamie Ward shot over when well placed.

And, after Vokes scored from close range after 68 minutes, Burnley were able to close out victory.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

..You were saying George?

Burnley won with a disputed goal, nevertheless it's a win and 3 pts, I still say they will miss out on auto-pro. However it's very close to call and I hope for your sake they do manage to go up.

No disputing that goal old son, and would have been more if all the chances had been taken.

Having watched the clip several times I agree the ball did not appear to go out just prior to the goal. Very tame in front of goal though.
2517

Tame who?

Your team of course, all those chances. What are you doing up so early?
2517

Missing chances is not tame, not creating any is.

So come on then who do you support?

No one in the championship, I support---oh, who did you vote for in the GE, you've still not said.
