A brace from David Nugent helped Burnley to a 3-1 Premier League win over Sunderland at Turf Moor. More
90+3 And that is the final whistle! Burnley win, three out of three at home and they rise to eighth - for now.
88' Reckless tackle from Bardsley on Gudjonsson, the crowd want a red but Chris Foy shows him yellow.
86' Given away by Jones, Elliott picks it up and runs from his own half, now he is on the edge of the box, Mears has it on the right, he touches it into Nugent who turns AND HE FIRES A BRILLIANT SHOT INTO THE TOP LEFT! WHAT A GOAL! What a difference a goal makes, the pre-Pompey David Nugent is back and he is quite good!
75' SUNDERLAND SUB: Henderson on for Campbell.
68' Burnley counter, Eagles to Mears on the right, he knocks it back to Elliott AND THAT IS A BRILLIANT CROSS AND IN FLIES NUGENT WITH THE HEADER INTO THE ROOF OF THE NET AND BURNLEY LEAD!! AND IT'S DAVID NUGENT AND HE LOOKS LIKE HE'S ABOUT TO CRY! Great goal, Sunderland reeling.
64' Long throw takes a touch of Bikey and Jones collides with Carlisle, free-kick to Burnley in their own penalty area. BURNLEY SUB: Eagles on for Fletcher.
62' SUNDERLAND SUB: Jones is coming on now, for Malbranque, as the Black Cats go 4-3-3.
57' BURNLEY SUB: Nugent on for Paterson.
53' Reid with a good piece of skill, he's on the left and swings a high ball far post which is deep but Malbranque with an excellent cut-back and Bent with a step-over AND BENT FIRES IT ON GOAL BUT A SUPER SAVE FROM JENSEN! Lovely football from Sunderland, best move of the match.
47' Early corner to Sunderland which Reid will take, good delivery which comes off Fletcher and into the path of Cana but his shot is scuffed and Jensen gets down to claim! Sunderland felt that was a handball by Fletcher but that would have been very harsh, ball to hand surely.
46' Second half underway!
45+3 Half-time, 1-1 and both goals from poor defending in a game that Sunderland have otherwise bossed.
45+1 Late from Turner on Fletcher, yellow card.
43' The ball is in the air on the edge of the Burnley D, Bikey is all over the shop and it drops to BENT WHO SHOOTS but it flies over.
39' Reid on the left, he cuts inside, drifts towards the edge of the box unmarked, Burnley are standing off him and he plays in a cute through ball with the outside of his left and Bent is in, he's clean through, Burnley have just stopped with their hands in the air but not flag AND BENT SCORES! He seemed almost reluctant to finish as if an imaginary whistle had gone, but Clarke Carlisle had played him onside and it's 1-1!
28' BURNLEY SUB: Gudjonsson on for McCann.
25' McCann is still getting treatment, magic spray so just a knock is seems.
21' Bit of a mess for Burnley as Carlisle and Bikey make a mess of clearing a high ball and Bent is in and must score but he fires straight at the keeper!
16' The ref calls back play for a historic offside from Bent, quite a late whistle there as Burnley had already countered and seen the move break down.
13' Alexander steps up to take... and he hammers it down the middle for 1-0! Totally against the run of play, Burnley are in front!
11' Great ball down the right from Alexander, he releases Elliott who touches it past Ferdinand but a terrible challenge, penalty! Totally unnecessary as Elliott's touch was really heavy.
5' Free-kick to Sunderland on the left. Taken short but the initial cross is not on for Richardson so Malbranque gets it back and swings it through to Campbell in the box, a heavy-ish touch but he can still get the shot away but blocked by McCann!
1' First half underway at Turfmoor!!

GOD HAS THE BEST MANAGER NOW ....... SIR BOBBY ROBSON .........

Bob P comment 111 , Dont worry the Claret Flame burns brightly once more just as it did with such style and passion in the early 1960s before the came was ruined by ,,a bunch of greedy scum from overseas like the Glazers,when the Claret and Blue of Burnley were among the most feared colours in the domestic game and Harry Potts team flashed across the football fields of England and Europe,like a streak of Claret and Blue Lightning.The team from the small Lancashire Mill town has allways punched well above its weight,and in Jimmy Mac had a player that was as good as any of the imports that now blight our game,not to mention Jimmy Adamson,Brian Pilkington,Ray Pointer,to name but three of the players that have worn the famous colours with such pride,we will stay up you do not understand what it means to play for Burnley its about far more than money,ask Andy Payton,or Leighton James,as I have and you would understand.LONG LIVE TURFMOOR

I think Burnley's home form will save them like Stoke's did last season

You Guys are bullying sunderland for no reason at all, after all, Man U the so called 'champions' came to burnley and lost.

Well done Burnley,....looking forward to meeting you at "The Lane" once again.

Fantastic result Burnley from a still shocked Man Utd fan - your going to stay up - well done

Sunderland, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
