From The Bee Hole End - The Burnley Podcast

Josh Cullen scored one and created another as the Clarets enjoyed their first victory of the campaign in their Premier League debut at Turf Moor with a 2-0 win over Sunderland.
It was "an absolute captain's performance" according to the pod squad who had plenty of praise to spread around the team after a strong second half display. Are we seeing a more tactically flexible Scott Parker? Is the team physically stronger this season? And is relegation perhaps not as much of a foregone conclusion as the pundits predicted?
There are also fan-view segments, a bit of chat about the 'game day experience' and a short look-ahead to Tuesday's Carabao Cup tie against Derby County.
