Very comprehensive 3-1 win over the Nix which virtually guarantees finals. Still a sneaky chance of a home final. Finally starting to get players back from injury, Absolonsen especially is just class and I would of loved to see what he would have achieved with a full season

Seemed like a damn good crowd, I was quite busy. Happy to be busy at 2.5x normal rates too! ;)

Only a bit over 11k in for the No Convicts Derby today. One of our better crowds this season though.

Agreed. Was the loudest I've heard it for years.

I'm glad to get Victory rather than City, who've had our measure this season. We beat Victory away with nine men. Having said that, we've never won an away final and Victory will start favourites.

Just useless, another poor season. Hopefully the new owners can splash some cash because this squad will never be able to compete

Two poor pieces of defending cost us (although it could have been a different story if Valeri had been sent off).

On the wishlist for next season is a number 10, a striker who scores goals (doesn't necessarily need to be a new player), possibly a centre half depending on whether Gulum sticks around - I doubt he will - and holding on to all our young players. But mainly a number 10.

Was a Burnely player for two years from 2007
We signed him after watching him represent Albania against England at Turf Moor
Was injured when he came and then went on loan for the rest of his contract.

Hopefully the owners spend some coin. Proud of the effort after the injuries we have had this year, but poor defending cost us both goals last night. Still, have started to turn a corner after last season

Hard to begrudge that win to the Victory last night.
We threw everything at them and it took until late for them to get over us.
Can't really complain about Valeri, either, as we benefited from Gulum staying on last week.
You're my only friend, and you don't even like me.
