I remember in the early 60's a two page article in a football annual (wish I'd kept them all) and it had a full page black + white photograph of Bob.
The feature was call 'Lord Burnley' and I was so proud that anything associated with Burnley was in a national publication - I must have re-read that article hundreds of times!
He was revered and feared in equal measure!

I do hope those two parts aren't related
