Burnley 0-0 Leicester, abondoned 19mins
 
Burnley's game yesterday was abandoned after 19 mins due to waterlogged pitch.

I was surprised they even started the game becuase the pitch was quite bad at 3pm, but the game kicked off and the rain carried on.

The ball didnt go out of play for about 5 minutes because the water was stopping it and it was becoming impossible to pass the ball.

The referee decided to call the game off when the players started swimming instead of running.

most of the fans had left by this time, that photo was took about 10-15 minutes after the games was abandoned.

The pitch was just playable at 3pm and the referee warned both managers that the game could be abandoned. Then the rain carried on and it was like a monsoon ive never seen rain like it before.

as for friday night i cant wait for the game.

We are the underdogs, liverpool are expected to beat us, so there is no pressure on us.
If the defence play like they have been doing most of the season then Liverpool are going to have a job scoring against us.

Are you going on friday bagpuss

UP THE CLARETS

1) The stand you can see fully is the away one, and leicester didnt bring a lot - as you can see

2) The stand on the left is the Bob Lord, and there is quite a lot of fans in there.

3) The stand where this picture was taken from had lots of fans in as its 1 of the best stands

4) The stand to the right which is the JH had lots and lots of fans in it.

5) No attendance was given but there will have been around 11,000 - 14,000 on this game.
