£60 Million 'Winner takes all' super game ( Burnley v Sheff Utd)

Burnley v Sheff Utd

Championship play-off final
Venue: Wembley Stadium Date: Monday, 25 May Kick-off: 1500 BST

The richest club game in world football. Anyone have any thoughts on this one? I think Coyle has done great with limited resources and would like to see them progress. They have shown in both cup comps that they can hold their own with some top teams.

I see Burnely eeking this one out and winning 1-0. They have been in alot of big ganmes this season,a nd reckon they will have the better mentality for it. They are underdogs, so the pressure is off them.

A7X · 25-05-2009 12:23pm

I hope Burnley win.

Xavi6 · 25-05-2009 12:32pm

Burnley please. A few lads off my team flew home especially for it. Be great for them to get to the Prem.

Jazzy · 25-05-2009 2:27pm

come on Burnley!
got friends from there so really want them to win today

Mushy · 25-05-2009 2:37pm

Wanna see Burnley win...my Dad likes them for some reason or other, plus not a big Shef. Utd fan.

Carroller16 · 25-05-2009 2:39pm

apologies, just realised the blackburn/burnley link.

peach; 1-0.

Headshot · 25-05-2009 3:49pm

still think Sheff Utd will win this

they're at 7/1 to win the match btw

eagle eye · 25-05-2009 3:53pm

Disgraceful refereeing. That foul on the edge of the box that wasn't given and then the handball should have been a penalty.

Hopefully the Blades get their goals in the second half but Mike Dean isn't helping matters.

Mushy · 25-05-2009 4:21pm

Lot more frantic play now. Gonna be fun 30 mins or so.

andrewie · 25-05-2009 4:24pm

Fantastic last ditch challenge from Walker just as Blake was about to shoot.

Mushy · 25-05-2009 4:27pm

Let me guess....Sheffield United to possibly sue Burnley?

Headshot · 25-05-2009 4:28pm

peno for sure there

eagle eye · 25-05-2009 4:31pm

Mike Dean is a disgrace, thats two clear penalties that he has turned down.

JerryHandbag · 25-05-2009 4:31pm

Come on Burnley, seal the deal!

Yeah, dunno which one was worse. Oh wait, they've just gotten a free!

ChumpStain · 25-05-2009 4:33pm

Come on Burnley!!!

Btw am I the only one who really started disliking Sheff Utd because of Neill Warnock? I know he's been gone a while but I the dislike still remains.

No not at all. Thats where most of my hatred stems for them...although hatred probably being too strong a word.

Mushy · 25-05-2009 4:38pm

Still can't blame ref for that decision.

andrewie · 25-05-2009 4:39pm

United down to ten men.

Ward only on about ten minutes and he's picked up two yellows.

Chucky the tree · 25-05-2009 4:40pm

It's times like this I wish Colin was still manager.

eagle eye · 25-05-2009 4:41pm

This is the most rigged refereeing I've ever seen.

How can you defend that sending off? Blatant booking, and already booked, means he should rightfully be sent off regardless of previous decisions.

let's not get into conspiracies.

Burnley

SlickRic · 25-05-2009 4:45pm

lol at those voting in the poll during the last 5 mins.

VinylJunkie · 25-05-2009 4:50pm

Come on Burnley, I played with Chris McCann at Rivermount.

Headshot · 25-05-2009 4:53pm

well done Burnley

also nice to see eagles back in the PL

Dave! · 25-05-2009 4:54pm

FT

Burnley 1 - 0 Shef Utd

This makes me happy, mainly because eagle eye wanted Burnley to lose.

Chong · 25-05-2009 4:54pm

Come on Burnley , delighted for them.

VinylJunkie · 25-05-2009 4:55pm

Congratulations to Burnley.

Jazzy · 25-05-2009 4:55pm

eagle eye · 25-05-2009 4:56pm

Absolutely disgraceful.

gimmick · 25-05-2009 4:56pm

Wonder who the blades will blame for this?

What a season for Burnley. Fair play Owen Coyle.

slingerz · 25-05-2009 4:56pm

Well what other 2 teams will get relegated next year? Stoke and Sunderland is my guess

Mushy · 25-05-2009 4:56pm

Yay!

Congrats Burnley, deserved it.
