Newbies defeated Champions!


Burnley stunned the Red Devils last night with a 1-0 win at Turf Moor. Burnley's Robbie Blake shot in the winning goal in the 19th minute and despite awarded a penalty, Michael Carrick was unable to convert the chance as Brian Jensen made a "heroic“ save. It was 33 years ago since Burnley had a home win in the Premier League and it is to the fans' joy that they have recorded their first home win in the Premier League since 1976 against Premier League Champions, Manchester United.

I guess Manchester United is beginning to miss the firepower of Ronaldo Cristiano as they were unable to break down Burnely's defense. I guess we will have to see if Burnely can continue to resist the attack from the Big Boys and if they are able to keep up their wins to stay alive in the Premier League by the end of the season.
