The games keep coming, & tonight we visit Turf Moor for the visit of unpredictable Manchester United.
At time of writing, Burnley are 5 places & 4 points behind United. Burnley lost to Everton on Boxing Day, but are a team that rarely loses 2 on the bounce. Man U, meanwhile, gave Newcastle a black eye, but have become very unpredictable, partly I suspect due to not having a decent Manager.
Quite an interesting betting market all things considered, with Burnley generally available at better than 3/1, despite having ground advantage.
Not an easy one to call.
This rotund & merry looking chap enjoyed legendary status as Burnley's Chairman for 25 years, but if you think he was a nice avuncular chap, think again, he was far from it, as his Wiki page demonstrated. (Warning - may give offence).
Just google "Bob Lord Burnley, Wiki", & it brings the correct page up.

Sorry for the small photo, but it's the best I could find. It's Natalie & Adam Bromley, both big Burnley fans, in fact Natalie helps put together NNN ("No Nay Never") which is the Burnley FC Podcast, as well as writing a Burnley Column in the local rag.
Here's Natalie's latest piece for the Lancashire Telegraph;

Have you got the right man ?
the wiki page puts him with IBM.
Yes, I have the right man, but the Wiki Link is redirecting for some reason.
Just google "Bob Lord, Burnley, Wiki".
Why I can't get the link to work is a complete mystery.

Exactly 2 Goals @ 5/2
