All time record, competitive games, up to and including Burnley 1 Luton 1.

P 5772, W 2255, D 1396, L 2121, F 8478, A 8317.

I'm glad someone is keeping count

To the best of my knowledge, only two of Leighton James' 81 goals for Burnley were headers, and both were away from Turf Moor.

Details below...

We require clean sheets in both of our remaining matches to beat the club record, which is 21, and, perhaps surprisingly, was set in 1980/81, when we finished 8th in Division 3 https://twitter.com/DLRbrts/status/1651557808104431619 https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FuuB-3LWAAEWpq6?format=png&name=small

We have scored in 24 championship games in a row, only failing at Watford away. Keep it up clarets. Wonder what our record is? Or even the championship record? This team definitely feels like record breakers. To try and answer the original question, Burnley's longest sequence of scoring at least on...

I am not a programme collector, as such, but have accumulated many Burnley programmes, not a full set by any means, mainly from the late 1970s onwards. So although there would probably be some overlap, the ones from the 1960s era, especially, would certainly be of interest to me. What sort of donati...

All at https://www.uptheclarets.com/players/hat-trick-heroes Although Ray Simpson's Burnley FC books are excellent resources, there are a few errors, including several missing hat-tricks, which aren't listed. By my reckoning there are a further 7, which don't appear on the lists in the books, or in...

Manchester City have received permission to obtain retrospective league title winners medals for four of their players, who did not qualify for medals due to rules that were in place at the time.

"But something went wrong!" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcvw2hrm1YM The Newcastle goalkeeper for our goal was unbelievable.

They managed to get out of the division in 2016/17 (it's not as hard as it might seem)- I'm sure they'll be able to get out again in 2018/19

Dave thanks so much for posting this.

There doesn't seem to be very much out there from any of the Premier League seasons.

Wonder why there are few games available from our first promotion to the Prem in 2009/10? I've looked for highlights from that season but it's difficult to find many matches available. Strike my original comment (I misunderstood, and thought you were talking about the 2009/10 PL season - I assume y...

In the future I am planning to added an extra section for club handbooks, of which I already have a few, including the one from 1982 and some more from the 1990s. However, I don't have the 75th anniversary publication - do you have further details?

BB8

The 'Images Of Sport' book is there (first row, top right) - although I'm aware that it was also reissued later with a different cover.

I own Dave Thomas' 'Defiant To The End' book, which has been omitted, so I'll make sure that's included later, thanks.

CT, I seem to recall on the CM site that you had all the tables going back to 1800 and frozen to death as well as the results. Additionally for a number of seasons, I think one could find a result and click on the Table as it was after that result. This really allowed one to make comparisons not on...

How about the ubiquitous, annoying, trait of starting a sentence with

There's a Vintage Clarets match on in Colne on Sunday afternoon (2pm ko)

http://www.vintageclarets.co.uk/latest- ... r-fixture/

It was a good game - very closely matched sides overall. Burnley were unlucky not to get a draw after hitting the woodwork from a save by the Everton 'keeper in the second half, and could also have had a penalty for a foul in the box in the dying seconds.

BB8

You can make one hell of a 5-a-side team from the former Burnley players who were born on this day (15th October)

Rather harsh to have ex-England international Paul Robinson on the bench, but Colin McDonald surely gets the starting berth.

BB8

why the hell do they have headphones with mouthpieces and then only use the microphone when speaking? For home matches, the sound goes directly to the match DVD from the separate hand held microphone.

Thanks for the match report, which as always makes for very good reading, and even more so for it being a victory and 3 points. I think the stat about the 4 match unbeaten away run in the top flight during the 1970/71 season is incorrect though. I suspect this may well have been caused by an error i...
