    That was all down to Antonio running on and anticipating what might happen.

    It's been 7 years since Burnley have won after going behind.

    Carroll has been sent off.

    Two yellow cards for leading with his arms twice.

    Same thing he got booked for 30 seconds before.

    Idiot.

    So far this season he's made 2 poor backpasses costing us a goal, a few other silly incidents and now this. He doesn't seem to be concretating. Focus gone

    That was a pen for Burnley there. Got away with one.

    Only confirms my opinion that Carroll is a liability and should not start a game unless there is no other choice - he should be our last 10 to 20 min impact sub

    Sorry, I can't watch it but seriously. Two bookings in such a short time sound like intent so send off to me. Surely the ref could have given him a serious ticking off before the second booking.

    So frustrating when you see that line-up and expect to spend a lot of the game attacking, but then somebody does something so stupid and now we’ve got an hour of defending to do.

    Wouldn't say he is a liability but he is a last 20 min man he isn't a starter in my book. You bring him on to lump balls up to in the last 20 chasing a game or to hold the ball if holding onto a lead.

    The ref may have done his shoulder trying to get his card out so quickly.

    The first wasn't a booking at all. The 2nd challenge was probably a yellow, but surely the ref has to take the first booking into account, and warn the player to calm down?

    Atwell seemed desperate to make a point.

    Before the sending off, there was no point Lanzini or Chicarito being on the pitch, the way we were playing, and that has continued since the sending off.

    I'd bring off Chicarito at half-time for Sakho, and maybe Arthur for Arnie.

    Think there's more chance of Arthur getting up and down.

    Time for Noble to make his appearance ;wink

    Perhaps so, but it was utterly brainless of Carroll to do exactly the same thing so soon afterwards.

    Will be interesting to see whether anyone else gets booked for leading with the arm this weekend , because I'm pretty sure it happens in every game.

    It's going to be hard enough without giving them another player to play towards our goal ;wink

    Who Markie ;whistle

    We got away with one there, Harts challenge was a penalty all day long

    Think that AC's sending off may be a blessing - it is going to force us to use Sakho who I think is a better fit with the likes of Lanzini and Chico
