First game is here and I'm feeling quite optimistic about today. Let's hope the team turn up and perform and give us something to smile about come tea time. 2-0 I'm lumping cash on, so probably best tou all avoid that bet as I'm shocking at predictions! However you're watching today, hope you all enjoy the return of the Premier league. COYFB.

If you are that bad at predictions can you lump some cash on 1,2,3-0 Brighton? Also 2-1 Brighton please.

Keane and young start definitely a penalty conceded.

Keane starting. My optimism has just expired.

Have to say the line up has dampened my enthusiasm for today a little. still hoping for a good result regardless.

Wouldn't feel to confident, Young and Keane starting in defence.

Is there anyone on here that didn't think we would struggle once they seen the team sheet? Last season Michael Keane played at the start of the season and cost us a few games with his mistakes. He usually has a steady enough game if the opposition like hoofing the ball upfront but there's always a costly error in him.
Young was a liability (errors and red cards) in defence for most games he played last season. I thought Dyche would get sacked if he stuck with Keane last season, but fortunately he didn't and we tightened up at the back.
Now here we are 12 months later and Dyche has resorted back to playing these 2 in defence. If he gets sacked, he only has himself to blame for sticking by the same players that have continually proven they are not consistent enough for the EPL (Keane, Young, Holgate, McNeill, Harrison etc). Definition of madness is trying the same thing over and over but expecting a different outcome.
