    Are Burnley fans making excuses?

    Much smaller squad, much less money to buy players, much less money to loan players on high wages, lost their main striker to rival, both strikers out injured, and still they're making ground on us. They put us to shame. QPR was once a club like Burnley, run on limited resources but run pretty well for the large part, now we have become a mini-Chelsea. TF needs to really think hard about the direction we're going in.

      Sorry, I should have said putting more distance between us and themselves.

        Oh how we gloated in the autumn: the Burnley squad is threadbare, they won't even finish in a playoff spot, let alone automatic, blah-blah. A lesson for us in humility.
        Banning people is no longer my hobby,
        but take a look at my photo blog:

        How and why did I start supporting QPR in Estonia:

          Yeah, I actually wouldn't be upset when they get that second place, because they deserve it.

              I hope Burnley crash and burn; lose every game until the end of the season; lose in the play-offs and lose their best players in the summer.

                      Would love to have seen the points differential had they lost 4 first team players for more than 6 games

                        You're getting pretty wound up about Burnley for someone who doesn't care!
                        Any football fan would appreciate how well they've done.....and Leicester.

                          Begrudgingly of course, considering they were direct rivals of ours for much of the season
