Dyche: 'Refs are making Burnley do twice as much to win'

Burnley manager Sean Dyche Burnley manager Sean Dyche

SEAN Dyche has warned his players they will have to keep going the extra mile to win games, after being staggered by decisions that went against the Clarets in their midweek draw with Barnsley.

Charlie Austin edged nearer to the magical 30-goal milestone by putting Burnley on the front foot with an early opener, converting Danny Lafferty’s cross for his 26th of the season.

But he was denied a clear penalty in the second half when he was brought down in the box, with the score at 1-0, and Barnsley went on to rescue a point through substitute Tomasz Cywka.

It was not the first time this season that Burnley have been on the wrong end of a refereeing call against Barnsley. In their FA Cup defeat to the Tykes, who have since gone on to reach the quarter finals, the Clarets were wrongly reduced to 10 men when Brian Stock was the victim of mistaken identity over a second yellow card.

Dyche said: “We have to over-earn wins at the minute.

“We had that when I first got here and we’ve having to do that again.

“No-one gives you anything anyway – no team – but at the minute we’re struggling to get a decision that goes our way so we’re going to have to over-earn it and not just beat the 11 in front of us.”

The penalty appeal on Tuesday was not the only big moment that did not go the Clarets’ way.

Stephen Foster was already on a booking, for a first-half lunge at Austin, when he pulled back Martin Paterson as he burst through on goal, yet the former Burnley defender escaped without punishment.

Dyche was left infuriated.

“Decisions have radically changed the outlook of the game,” he fumed.

“It was pretty obvious – quite an incredible one – Charlie Austin gets cut in half through his shins with a two-footer and I'm amazed at the yellow card.

“Pato (Paterson) goes through on goal with a shirt pull from a player who's already been yellow carded, no action.

“The obvious one was the penalty with Charlie.

“It's a penalty, simple as that.”

However, the Burnley boss accepted his side had again failed to perform to their best at home and was frustrated not to build on Saturday's welcome win at Charlton.

It was their third win and clean sheet from six games on their travels in the Championship in 2013.

Conversely they have won only once in five attempts this calendar year.

And he fears bad vibes are escalating at Turf Moor.

“It was patchy,” said Dyche. I'd never cover it over with referees. There were moments I was pleased with, we started very brightly, we scored a very good goal.

“The interesting thing is we've gone 1-0 up and there's an edge to it around here at the minute and that sometimes affects them (the players).

“But we've had a few game changers go against us.

“You can only hope over time that it evens itself out, but it would be nice if that time came pretty quickly.

“Decisions have radically changed the outlook of the game.

“It's not about holding on, the game should have been done.

“In tight games when we're not as free flowing as we want to be we're having to change the team around for many different reasons – once them things go for you it settles everything down, you're 2-0 up and confidence builds and it changes the whole feel.”

Dyche added: “We have to over-earn wins at the minute. We had that when I first got here and we've having to do that again.

“No-one gives you anything anyway – no team – but at the minute we're struggling to get a decision that goes our way so we're going to have to over-earn it and not just beat the 11 in front of us.”

Stop whinging Sean and get your game plan, team selection and tactics right.

Yes I know we have injuries to key players such as Wallace, Marney and Mcann but you already know this when you select the team.

Charlie Austin's body language is beginning to say it all that he's fed up of the role he is continually having to play without adequate support. Your continued way you use Vokes baffles me and from comments of other fans sat around me it seems they are too.

Never thought I would make a comment like this but it is really frustrating at the moment seeing how we continually allow teams to push up and control the mid-field as well as the way we go about challenging an opponent who has the ball.

Was it the ref that made our defenders play like headless chickens for the last 20 mins on Tuesday, our midfield go missing or our forwards look confused and frustrated with a system that they neither understand or like, I think not! Whilst I understand it is not all SD's fault, the attitude of the board over the last few years has left us in this position, but he MUST not start looking for other factors to blame. It was purely down to the lack of quality within the squad and the lack of options to change any game that lost us 2 points on Tuesday, and lots more in other recent games !!! At least the q for new season tickets will be short.

Hes right, Barnsley should have been down to 9 men and we should have had a penalty. He sets the team up to counter attack and when they are succesful ie Patterson through on goal and Austin through on goal, both are fouled and nothing happens.

Unless the Ref is willing to shoulder some of the blame for our statue-like, anti-creative midfield, and the complete unwillingness to play to the strengths of our 1 or 2 players with genuine quality, then these comments are going to fall on deaf ears i'm afraid Sean.

Our center midfield and wingers are just not good enough for a side that has aspirations for a top 6 finish. We respect that.

What we can't and won't accept are poor tactics, poor decision making and then blaming others for those failings.The football i have witnessed over the past 6 matches is as bad as anything i've witnessed in 20 years of watching Burnley.

I notice that the deadline for the early bird ST's has just been extended - It will be needed to be extended to august if we carry on as we are.

If you are going to take the micky with how over inflated your charges are for your product, at least have the good grace to make it worth watching please.

I won't be renewing.

Must admit that after being a Turfite for over 60 years I am considering the same about renewing, she who must be obeyed keeps telling me there are other things to do on Saturday afternoons. Can't think what but I am beginning to look

The referees in this division leave much to be desired. I do not think they are biased just poor no wonder the Premiership Referees have nothing to fear from competition

Now now, you are can't do what you criticise us Rovers fans for. All those reprimands we get "get behind your manager and team"!! What are they asking you to pay for a ST this time round? Have to say, watching my team and football in this league has had me yawning in my seat.

your not wrong there mate on all descriptions, however i would say Ive seen some real ugly humans in both Blackburn & Burnley & worse in Bolton the drug capital of the North these days.
But if you want to see Clowns running a circus get down to Ewood park & thats sad to say. the new rovers manager seems OK & so is the Burnley manager thats if people & the morons running the clubs give them a half chance.
