Clarets Blog: Plenty of positives to take from derby day

8:18am Tuesday 4th December 2012 in Sport Photograph of the Author By Stephen Cummings, Burnley FC fan columnist

WELL if you can’t beat ‘em, then a last gasp equaliser from a substitute is almost certainly the next best thing.

Sam Vokes has essentially been a bit-part player under Sean Dyche, thrown on for the last 15-20 minutes to retain possession higher up the pitch and take some pressure off a besieged defence late in the game.

But his headed goal which cancelled out Jordan Rhodes’ earlier opener was the most rapturously received since Robbie Blake’s breathtaking first-time volley against Manchester United got Burnley up and running in the Premier League in August 2009.

Parity was the least the Clarets deserved, particularly after dominating an opening 45 minutes during which Henning Berg’s men rarely journeyed beyond halfway as Burnley attacked with flair and invention.

And had there been a lesser keeper between the sticks than the fading but still occasionally excellent Paul Robinson, the game may well have been decided by 1.15pm.

Charlie Austin, Martin Paterson and Dean Marney were all thwarted by the former England custodian and Dyche’s charges were almost made to pay until Vokes wrote himself into Burnley folklore.

But as the pleasingly warming early-winter sun began to dull and both sets of supporters left the stadium and wandered into a post-Orwellian police state around Turf Moor’s surrounding streets, there was no doubt which bunch of east Lancastrians were the happier.

Recent meetings between the two clubs have always seen the Clarets cast in the role of underdog: not any more.

Sunday provided conclusive evidence that the gap between these two founder members of the Football League has all but closed.

The passing of Jack Walker, Venky’s arrival on the scene and Rovers’ relegation under Steve Kean’s stewardship last term have all been contributory factors.

Change is afoot. Last Sunday, Burnley were something they haven’t been in a game against Blackburn for over a generation: they were Rovers’ equals.

And whilst the 33-year itch remains unscratched, those of a claret and blue persuasion can take great heart from the fact that neither that record, nor their nearest and not-so-dearest, look nearly as intimidating as they once did.

Those in blue and white? Well they won’t say it of course, but they know the game’s up.

sorry stephen but your column is just bravado to cover up another failure to beat your rivals. Whether our team are a shadow of their former self or not, your aim was to finally win and you didn't. Had to settle for a consolation prize. By the way in all football competitions, the goalkeeper is a bonafide member of the team and that's why the top clubs in the premier league have top goalkeepers. They aren't an excuse for the other team not winning. Pity the much boasted about Austin didn't step up to the plate like Robinson did. Mind you Dann wouldn't let him out of his pocket!

That's a bold statement. It really didn't look that way on Sunday. I think the realistic Blackburn fans would agree that's the closest we've been for many a year.

However I completely understand your feelings. You've been on top for a long time, it's going to be very hard for you to accept Burnley being the better team in the near future. And even more so given that we've done it through hard work, sensible management and good football.

Well fanny tickler.
You think that tis the closest that ROVERS and DINGLES have been for many a year ???
Possibly so 33 years to be exact, but before you numpties start pating yourselves on the back lets just remember you were the home team not ROVERS. You only manaed a last gasp equaliser which only about 4000 of your loyal fanatical fans saw as the rest were already long gone. INBBREDS.

A bit harsh.

Yes that last gasp equaliser was quite a moment wasn't it, and then the one way traffic that followed in added time. I bet you lot were soiling yourselves at the thought of us popping in a winner. You just held on though.

Yes we were at home and disappointed not to win given the performance but to get a last minute equaliser in a big derby game made it an acceptable result to most, especially when it spoiled the day for all those silenced in the away end..

Your mum's your dad, etc.

Reply to AndyW. Don't think so. Rovers are too old, too fat and some can't be bothered to run for the ball unless its passed to within a foot of them.Sorry to say actually but a very medocre team are Rovers now. Keeper and centre backs saved them from a beating on Sunday. Never mind it will be even better when the Clarets drub them at Ewood One fan thinks they should be beating mediore pposition - presume he means like Milwall, Bolton and Burnley. Will be interesting to see if Rovers can lift their game to this level.

We are at our lowest ebb in decades, choas on and off the pitch, clownesque owners and no direction.

But you still couldn't beat us. At home. With (snigger) the best striker in Europe (snigger).

Come March when Berg's got the team settled, and Austin sacks you lot off we'll thump you at Ewood.

It was so one sided first half we were saying how p*ssed off we would have been if we in the away end. Burnley were way the better team even if they shaded the second half.

Worrying times at Deadwood

Another BITTER Dingle - what was your pre match prediction.

3-0, 4-0 ?? Austin to give Rhodes a lesson in how to finish ???

I don't think so - why isnt there a single MAN amoungst the dingles.

Not one of them is big enough to say they under-estimated us - and this re-writing of history "POINT, LEAST WE DESERVED" - load of tosh !!

You had the better of the first half - but that DONKEY failed to score when the pressure was on.

All you Dingles had slagged JR off all week but he showed Austin how to finish - not one of you is big enough to acknowledge this are you ??

2nd half Rovers were in control for the most part and Burnley rarely threatened - a point you or any other bitter Dingle loser fails to admit.

You are inferior, lowly, losers who have to sell their best player just to survive - you are going no-where fast - and you know it.

We should buy Austin in January off you - not that he'd get in our team with Best coming back but just to rub you scummer noses in it !! - oh how bitter would you be then ????

Oh dear. Your obsession with me, while touching, is getting a bit "dingle white shemail" (see what I did there?)

Shouldn't you be busy scouring the Telegraph website looking for stories about Bonleh so you can get your pom poms in a tizzy?

Thanks for the replies though, always nice to know I've wound a dingle up. Even one as dull as you.

Too easy.

At home. With (snigger) the best striker in Europe (snigger). Come March when Berg's got the team settled, and Austin sacks you lot off we'll thump you at Ewood.[/p][/quote]Coooeee cheeky cheeeky Chico! . Chin up, things will get better, its discount spray tan day at the Darwen St salon, have you booked? Eddies been missing you and wants to know when you are "free". . Ciao cheeky![/p][/quote]Are you trying to chat me up? Sorry cheerleader, Chico don't swing that way. There's plenty of other websites for you to persue your desperate quest for man love. Even for a shambling bore like you. Keep twirling those pom poms. It's hilarious. Bless x[/p][/quote]Hey Cheeky we all know which way you swing with your pastel outfits, man bag and white wine spritzers:-) Didn't you keep bumping into Eddie at the sauna! (sauna FFS!!!) . Bless you with your perma-tan and teeth veneers! Ciao cheeky cheeky Chico!![/p][/quote]Oh dear. Your obsession with me, while touching, is getting a bit "dingle white shemail" (see what I did there?) Shouldn't you be busy scouring the Telegraph website looking for stories about Bonleh so you can get your pom poms in a tizzy? Thanks for the replies though, always nice to know I've wound a dingle up. Even one as dull as you. Too easy. x Chico!

And yet you still couldn't beat us.

We are at our lowest ebb in decades, choas on and off the pitch, clownesque owners and no direction.

But you still couldn't beat us. At home. With (snigger) the best striker in Europe (snigger).

Chico, did you ask your gentleman friend to wear a Sean Dyche ginger goatee mask on Sunday night?

You dingles are all a bit "YMCA".

You should drop Midas a line fanny, he's hungry for bumduggery too.

You two would make a lovely couple. I think you'd be the "catcher" though.

Hope it all works out for you. Remember, you were born that way.

It's only a bit of banter Chico. These things are give and take, or in your case take and take. x

Relax Midas.

Banter is banter.

I save my real scorn for the Rev Kevs of this world.

You dingles are a just a mild diversion.
