Report translated:

On Tuesday evening at 8 clock the English arrived with one hour delay from Dresden with us. They had four wins in their pockets and seemed a bit tired, but otherwise good cheer. With southern vivacity their directors described the reception so far in four German cities; they were full of praise and declared that the royal family could not have received a better reception. They praised everything: country and people, hotels and service; the warmth of reception, the raising of their national flag, the decent game of their German opponents. They praised the umpire Dr. Bauwens, Cologne, whom they would like to import to England. They were also satisfied with the climate; It must always be borne in mind that in the county of Lancashire the sun shines only in the hearts, but not in the sky, so that Germany appears to its inhabitants as Italy does. Only those who lived for months in England know the depressing impression of that yellow Mist, which is sometimes replaced by black fog and only very rarely by the sun. The English delegation was led by Walter Place, one of the directors, who himself played for Burnley for 20 years, and had to fight many battles in the good old days as right runner and right defender against Spiksley and Townley. Even as a wrestler and victor of Hackenschmidt and as an athlete, Walter Place has a great reputation; the strangest thing about him, however, is that he, who himself is a hotel owner and restaurateur surrounded by liquor, has never brought a drop of alcohol in his life over his lips. Nevertheless, he is a fierce companion, and of the old sort that one finds in the novels of Charles Dickens at the fires of the provincial inns. They came to see us, and everyone agreed that they felt as comfortable at the Grand Hotel in Nuremberg as if they were at home, and that there was no more beautiful hotel in London and Liverpool than the jewelery box of Messrs. Richert and Lotz. The Wednesday was spent sightseeing the city, the castle, the dozen ponds and the Zabo, in the evening they met at the brilliant chapel of the royal court and on Thursday morning the coach announced that his team would play as positioned, that is to say with 6 regular ones First and 5 substitutes. Of the remaining five, three were injured; Hill and Page, who cost the club more than 200,000 marks, were unfortunately unable to play because they needed the Football Association to win against France.

An hour before the start of the match, the Zabo's gates had to be closed, as 25,000 spectators had already chosen the afternoon of Ascension to visit their favorite spot. The club came in semi-complete lineup, with carrier but no strokes, and with Winter instead of Kugler. Referee was Birlem of Berlin, who, to send it ahead, officiated quite well. Stupid fanatics who have made a pipe concert on some of their decisions will do well to study their elemental rules in the future. For example, a "hand" is only when a player deliberately touches the ball with his hand; if he happens to be hit by the hand and arm, the game will continue automatically. These and similar things should be remembered by the "cunning ones" before they give their irrelevant value judgments through music.

The club won, won 4-2, and thus not only conquered the hearts of the Nuremberg, which he already owned, once again, but also proved a worthy service throughout Germany. The elf he beat was not in full line, that's right. Alone, she was the best man the famous Burnley Club could put on that day, and she played as well as she could on that day. Even at the club, you do not ask who or how or what, once he defeats; then it just means the club is beaten. And so it was yesterday, Burnley's beaten, that famous Burnley, who marched with at the top of the table of the English league and who demonstrated wonderful football despite his defeat. All considerations about the composition of the English elf may well explain the defeat and excuse it; but no one can reduce the club's victory, which was perhaps the best performance a German club has ever made against English crackers . It was a great triumph for the 1st FC. Nuremberg and for German football at all; In the last fifteen minutes, the Zabolutes grew beyond their own abilities, so much so that even the apathetic and not easily impressionable Alfred Schaffer became enthusiastic. At the break, the English had led 1-0; then the club made up, then he took the lead. Not content with that, he scored a third and fourth goal, which the Englishmen could only match, and then Birlem whistled, and the tide of enthusiastic spectators flooded the square to bang the hero of the day in bright joy on the shoulder. With stoic resignation, the guests were defeated and were the first to rejoice that the beautiful silver cup endowed by Georges Richart could remain in Nuremberg, as the club had been the best team . Immediately after the end of the fight, Walter Place went to the dressing room of the Nurembergers, to thank them for the nice game and to wish them the Deitsche championship. Nobler you can not acknowledge an unexpected game exit.

I say unexpectedly , because neither the spectators nor the players had expected a victory of the club. There was probably no one who had not bet on Burnley; The Burnley players, too, were convinced of a close victory by their team, even though they knew that everything they had experienced in Germany before was just child's play for the last meeting, and they went out of their way from the first moment on. One can say that Burnley was superior before the break and the club played alone at the end of the second half. This superiority in the final stages of the game won the Clubers cup and fame; they held on better, and when they had reached the same level and realized that the English were not better but worse, they were inspired by an unprecedented vigor, and fought for every inch of ground, like the (Bavarian) lions. After such a good performance you should actually donate no individual praise and write only that the whole team surpassed itself, which is actually true. But Stuhlfauth and Kalb still deserve to be highlighted as the best of the good guys. In the storm, the two foxes (with which not the cunning, but the anciennität should be emphasized), Seppl Schmitt and Reinmann showed brilliant skill. Even the Bumbas, who had the best striker of Burnley against him, and Popp, had a shine day. But I just notice that I have named 6 people, all of whom deserve the title of "very good" and therefore want to be content with this half dozen and raise the Aote to excellent, to the other five a "very good" in the annals of To be able to write in clubs.

I would like to criticize Burnley from the English point of view. The gatekeeper Sommerville is without doubt good class, but yesterday had no good day and was completely overshadowed by Stuhlfauth. The two defenders, both international, were outstanding. Reinmann must have learned a lot from his opponent and may already benefit from the consequences of the lesson on Sunday. Noteworthy was the extremely gentle and friendly way in which the two English backs solved their task; for English league proportions almost disembodied. No German club has such a pair. The English middle runner was very modest and did not reach calf at any stage of the game. Of the two outer halves I liked the right best. The storm showed brilliant ball handling, great finesse and precision, and everything that is so trimmed. He could not do one thing: shoot. With the exception of the right-winger and the left-winger, which went inside in the second half, the English striker's performance must also be considered moderate. There was the quintet of the English national team, which won so much in Brussels, but superior to two classes. No one knows as well as the club team itself that Burnley is technically still far superior to our players; How could it be otherwise, since the English professionals have no job to do but to perfect themselves in the noble ball art? If the English were beaten yesterday, it was partly due to the incompleteness of their team, but also partly due to the tenacious will and spirit of the club team, these two qualities that have accompanied the Zaboelel for so many years.

Ten minutes before the start, a slow train, Burnley directors, officials, and players march in pairs with a wonderful floral donation to the memorial of the fallen of the club. With their heads bowed, they stand before the symbol of fidelity and patriotism, and everything in a circle rises, as the first Kartini.

In the evening, an invitation from the club board united about 60 people in the Richard Wagner Hall of the Grand Hotel. There was so much cheerfulness that one had to rejoice over the noble way in which the English professional players had accepted their defeat. Apart from the English you could see the members of the narrower board of the 1. FC. and the players with their ladies; Mr. and Mrs. Kartini, the referee Birlem, Rosenberger of the Federal Judiciary Committee, Merk of the ASS, and the writer of these lines. In the middle of it was danced; then came toasts again, and over the whole congregation blew the spirit of the good old days and the cheerfulness of a by and large vanished period. It was a big day for the club; I am particularly pleased about the upcoming heavy games that nobody was hurt . It was athletic from the club to take the big risk; but every risk also finds its reward. Yesterday there were two of them; once a huge income, and secondly, the main thing is salvation and victory.

Walther Bensemann

Our Munich rapporteur

The last game of the Burnley expedition in Nuremberg gave a hard-to beat quality of the most striking impressions. To enumerate them all is simply impossible, otherwise the kicker would have to issue a special issue. But I'll try to shed light on at least what captivated the most: the game itself!

A rather strong mail fan, who was allowed to have some more heat degrees, received the thousands, who expected the most part, the English play and the club - albeit scarce - to see the second winner. There were some who hoped the club would win, but in general they did not dare to get loud, hoping, hoping!

With great applause, ahead of the celebrities, the guests, measured by pace, always entered the square in pairs, moving to the memorial and laying down a bouquet of flowers there. As the men of the club in black trousers and white shirt jumped into the fight track, it was already something lively. After a short welcome, the guests received flowers, then the sports call and the story began.

Burnley, with the wind behind him, made it clear from the start that it was a win-win. For the club, it did not look very bright in the first half. Stuhlfauth had to do piecework at times, but the Sebalduswirt and his forefathers lived up to their reputation. Nuremberg runners were overloaded with the defense, to build it was rare. The few club attacks crashed at the bomb-proof defense of the guests. In this first half, the English were real teachers. Not all, but some in an amazing way. With what perfection people mastered their body was really worth seeing. There was no convulsive effort. Everything looked so easy and obvious that one wondered why the Nurembergers did not complain. These were noticeably at a disadvantage because of the strong headwind, in addition to which there was a noticeable nervousness, which is surprising that the master machine bounced heavily. It did not work, however much each one tried. Only two people had the peace away: Stuhlfauth and Schmidt Bumbas. The long Heiner was in great form, he dominated almost the entire area alone. This performance makes him in the whole of Germany probably none. After a short while, Schmidt I recognized the dangerous right wing of the guests and now he performed a destructive game that was soothing to the nervous rush of his teammates. Köpplinger as a right runner had to be fooled at first by the opposing left wing, but grew more and more into his task. Kalb conducted a running voice, not always politely addressing his friends. The excitement of the Nuremberg Elf finally seized the audience and when the judges left some wounded or not intentional "hands" unpunished, the choir of Pfeifer sounded. It was quite a good thing, because one noticed that the majority of those present were well disciplined and only the smaller part felt obliged to publicly prove their lack of knowledge of rules together with insufficient nursery. The hard, but quite permissible stamping did not seem to please many. And such people resented a referee when he really overlooked something!

With the almost permanent banners of the Nuremberg Gate, it usually only had to be a matter of time before the English came to success. The minds did not seem to have that opinion, for Popp and Winter intervened like the devils, and even with the kind assistance of Stuhlfauth they always managed to avert the worst. Gradually, the landlord remembered that you can bump into it when you get started. In the process, Burnley-Halblinke Devine had to learn that Kalb owns a real German stubborn who can not cope with a Scotsman's skull. They waited anxiously for the first goal, which did not want to fall. The club storm had only in the right-winger Reinmann and Storm Leader Schmitt II stalwart daredevils. Also Träg sometimes tried to earn that title, but it stayed with the attempt. Already the normal game half was over and no goal! Because of short interruptions must be replayed. Suddenly, the left winger Burnleys has the ball, dubbed what opposes him and just from the 11 -meter point rushes a flat bomb into the Nuremberg network. Stuhlfauth probably touches the object, but it can not banish. Burnley leads 1: 0! Break.

It is hard to imagine how much the excitement had risen when things began again. Now the Zaboleute had the wind in the back, which did not seem to bother the English, because it began where it had stopped - Stuhlfauth - Stuhlfauth. But also a turn came. Only rarely, then more often came the Nuremberg storm near the enemy's goal. The technically superior skills of the English counterbalanced the natives by indomitable will. This alone would not have been enough to beat Burnley, but eventually, but finally the people of Nuremberg realized that it could be done, they gained more and more confidence, and now they suddenly realized that the calf people were also playing football can. Stuhlfauth's Schnaufpausen were getting longer, whereas his counterpart Sommerville is increasingly busy. Exactly half an hour takes this slow finding the club, then came the success. An error by the Burnley defense - the only one who perished - was used again deliberately to compensate.

From that moment on, the club elf was barely recognizable. This last quarter of an hour, the multiple German champions led a game that probably no team could withstand. The English had to capitulate, they tried in vain to push the enemy back, again and again stormed this, unstoppable like a surf. A shot of Wieders slammed on the post - high song picks up, stumbles, tears itself together, and Burnley is beaten. What came now is difficult to describe - 25,000 spectators break out in a tremendous jubilation, the tension was resolved, Germany's most famous Elf triumphed, showed himself worthy of a master. Do not miss it now - go on, - move forward - - Schmitt II misses a few meters from goal! The igniting spark has created contact between players and spectators. Encouraged by shouts outside the barriers, the Nurembergers are unstoppable. Kalb is terribly upset, he shoots a penalty from the 16-meter line wide beside the goal. Trag alone stands lost in thought on a further corridor offside. - Immediately he makes up for it, works for three, chases the ball to the middle, where high song picks up and certainly puts a bomb under the crossbar, 3: 1! A buzz of joy seizes the masses, the players hug each other, hats fly into the air, like a storm it roars across the square and even when Schmitt II turns a flank with a direct shot to the fourth and most beautiful goal of the day, the spectators get out of it Cottage, and I like to believe; that something the old Noris had never experienced before. - Maybe some dance masters were there, they could have done splendid studies. In the general howl, it was almost impossible for the Englishmen to score a second goal shortly before the end by a splendid single performance, which made the defeat a little softer.

The final whistle was the prelude to renewed ovation for the winner, whom Chairman Dr. Schregle presented a cup. There was no room for discipline, the crowd flooded the field and over and over again broke the tremendous jubilation, which was the well-deserved recognition for the magnificent performance of the club elite.

After such a game it is really difficult to criticize individual performances, because it was not one who won the victory, but the iron will of eleven players. Here they were all above praise. Nevertheless, the team is still a few weaknesses, which you could easily fix, such as the overly loud talking of calf. As much as he tried, he could not hide the fact that his time was up. To recognize this in time and to make room for a younger one is no shame. Once it has to be. On the other hand, if one watched Schmitt II and especially Reinmann, one could really enjoy the two youngest members of the team. High song and again you want to wish something of the temperament of these two. Of the outside runners, Schmidt I was in the first half. Köpplinger after the break the better. Kalb's biggest achievement was the slow pace after the break. What the man accomplished in half an hour was the sole reason that it worked out completely in the last quarter of an hour - but here calf was almost finished. In defense, Popp was always grown, winter after initial nervousness, everything. Stuhlfauth was Stuhlfauth, call me a better goalkeeper - we do not have one!

It should be borne in mind by the Englishmen that they had to hire five substitutes, which was naturally noticeable. But that's just the same, you have to compete against German extra class just completely, if you want to insist in honor. As the best people of the Burnley team I would like to call the defense as well as the right side of the storm. Also the half-left was good. By contrast, I had expected more from the runner row. The people are technically all fine educated and can certainly something, but highlights of the team they were not. The goalie might have distracted the first goal of the Nürnberger, if he was more active, against the other goals was nothing to do.

The referee Birlem (Berlin) was very good at preserving the great line necessary to make such a game a real pleasure. His decisions were those of an old player who did exactly what the analogous interpretation of the rules required. Therefore, the opposition rallies against his decisions before and during the break were absolutely inappropriate. I believe that all clubs should be sincerely happy if only referees of such format were given the direction of their games.

So the whole thing was rounded to absolute top performance, which will remain unforgettable for all who were in Zabo on 26 May.

Excellent stuff WCZ!

CT certainly used a different writing style in those days.

In the picture of the players applauding Spurs out, who is our number 4?

I’ve got a couple of copies of that pic of the players stood in front of the coach. A copy was on the wall in the laundry room at the Turf for years.

Hardly the ideal way to end the summer tour of Germany in 1927, a 2-4 defeat to the amateurs of FC Nuremburg.

But at least we had the excuse of having key players away on international duty. On the same evening as our friendly England beat France 6-0 in Paris and our centre-half Jack Hill was captain of the side and our prolific goalscorer Louis Page was playing up front with the legendary Dixie Dean.

This performance makes him in the whole of Germany probably none. After a short while, Schmidt I recognized the dangerous right wing of the guests and now he performed a destructive game that was soothing to the nervous rush of his teammates. Köpplinger as a right runner had to be fooled at first by the opposing left wing, but grew more and more into his task. Kalb conducted a running voice, not always politely addressing his friends. The excitement of the Nuremberg Elf finally seized the audience and when the judges left some wounded or not intentional "hands" unpunished, the choir of Pfeifer sounded. It was quite a good thing, because one noticed that the majority of those present were well disciplined and only the smaller part felt obliged to publicly prove their lack of knowledge of rules together with insufficient nursery. The hard, but quite permissible stamping did not seem to please many. And such people resented a referee when he really overlooked something!

With the almost permanent banners of the Nuremberg Gate, it usually only had to be a matter of time before the English came to success. The minds did not seem to have that opinion, for Popp and Winter intervened like the devils, and even with the kind assistance of Stuhlfauth they always managed to avert the worst. Gradually, the landlord remembered that you can bump into it when you get started. In the process, Burnley-Halblinke Devine had to learn that Kalb owns a real German stubborn who can not cope with a Scotsman's skull. They waited anxiously for the first goal, which did not want to fall. The club storm had only in the right-winger Reinmann and Storm Leader Schmitt II stalwart daredevils. Also Träg sometimes tried to earn that title, but it stayed with the attempt. Already the normal game half was over and no goal! Because of short interruptions must be replayed. Suddenly, the left winger Burnleys has the ball, dubbed what opposes him and just from the 11 -meter point rushes a flat bomb into the Nuremberg network. Stuhlfauth probably touches the object, but it can not banish. Burnley leads 1: 0! Break.

It is hard to imagine how much the excitement had risen when things began again. Now the Zaboleute had the wind in the back, which did not seem to bother the English, because it began where it had stopped - Stuhlfauth - Stuhlfauth. But also a turn came. Only rarely, then more often came the Nuremberg storm near the enemy's goal. The technically superior skills of the English counterbalanced the natives by indomitable will. This alone would not have been enough to beat Burnley, but eventually, but finally the people of Nuremberg realized that it could be done, they gained more and more confidence, and now they suddenly realized that the calf people were also playing football can. Stuhlfauth's Schnaufpausen were getting longer, whereas his counterpart Sommerville is increasingly busy. Exactly half an hour takes this slow finding the club, then came the success. An error by the Burnley defense - the only one who perished - was used again deliberately to compensate.

From that moment on, the club elf was barely recognizable. This last quarter of an hour, the multiple German champions led a game that probably no team could withstand. The English had to capitulate, they tried in vain to push the enemy back, again and again stormed this, unstoppable like a surf. A shot of Wieders slammed on the post - high song picks up, stumbles, tears itself together, and Burnley is beaten. What came now is difficult to describe - 25,000 spectators break out in a tremendous jubilation, the tension was resolved, Germany's most famous Elf triumphed, showed himself worthy of a master. Do not miss it now - go on, - move forward - - Schmitt II misses a few meters from goal! The igniting spark has created contact between players and spectators. Encouraged by shouts outside the barriers, the Nurembergers are unstoppable. Kalb is terribly upset, he shoots a penalty from the 16-meter line wide beside the goal. Trag alone stands lost in thought on a further corridor offside. - Immediately he makes up for it, works for three, chases the ball to the middle, where high song picks up and certainly puts a bomb under the crossbar, 3: 1! A buzz of joy seizes the masses, the players hug each other, hats fly into the air, like a storm it roars across the square and even when Schmitt II turns a flank with a direct shot to the fourth and most beautiful goal of the day, the spectators get out of it Cottage, and I like to believe; that something the old Noris had never experienced before. - Maybe some dance masters were there, they could have done splendid studies. In the general howl, it was almost impossible for the Englishmen to score a second goal shortly before the end by a splendid single performance, which made the defeat a little softer.

The final whistle was the prelude to renewed ovation for the winner, whom Chairman Dr. Schregle presented a cup. There was no room for discipline, the crowd flooded the field and over and over again broke the tremendous jubilation, which was the well-deserved recognition for the magnificent performance of the club elite.

After such a game it is really difficult to criticize individual performances, because it was not one who won the victory, but the iron will of eleven players. Here they were all above praise. Nevertheless, the team is still a few weaknesses, which you could easily fix, such as the overly loud talking of calf. As much as he tried, he could not hide the fact that his time was up. To recognize this in time and to make room for a younger one is no shame. Once it has to be. On the other hand, if one watched Schmitt II and especially Reinmann, one could really enjoy the two youngest members of the team. High song and again you want to wish something of the temperament of these two. Of the outside runners, Schmidt I was in the first half. Köpplinger after the break the better. Kalb's biggest achievement was the slow pace after the break. What the man accomplished in half an hour was the sole reason that it worked out completely in the last quarter of an hour - but here calf was almost finished. In defense, Popp was always grown, winter after initial nervousness, everything. Stuhlfauth was Stuhlfauth, call me a better goalkeeper - we do not have one!

It should be borne in mind by the Englishmen that they had to hire five substitutes, which was naturally noticeable. But that's just the same, you have to compete against German extra class just completely, if you want to insist in honor. As the best people of the Burnley team I would like to call the defense as well as the right side of the storm. Also the half-left was good. By contrast, I had expected more from the runner row. The people are technically all fine educated and can certainly something, but highlights of the team they were not. The goalie might have distracted the first goal of the Nürnberger, if he was more active, against the other goals was nothing to do.

The referee Birlem (Berlin) was very good at preserving the great line necessary to make such a game a real pleasure. His decisions were those of an old player who did exactly what the analogous interpretation of the rules required. Therefore, the opposition rallies against his decisions before and during the break were absolutely inappropriate. I believe that all clubs should be sincerely happy if only referees of such format were given the direction of their games.

So the whole thing was rounded to absolute top performance, which will remain unforgettable for all who were in Zabo on 26 May.[/quote

Three more great photos W_C_Z.

Perhaps 1964/65 (the last season for the 1962 Cup Final strip), 1968 the dismantling of the Cricket Field terracing and 1981/82 Division Three Champions.

That photo from 64/65 - sadly six of them no longer with us and others, particularly John Talbut and Brian O'Neil, suffering health wise.

81/82 - did Big Vince really look that young?

That third pic is an interesting one. Not sure what the occasion was but assuming it was at a time when Waldron was captain.

Look at the state of the pitch in the first photo, looks like the tide has just gone out. Is it Turf Moor ?

What's the story behind the "Welcome to Turf Moor" photo ?.....Mac, Cummings and even a returning John Connelly on there. Maybe 1975 ish ?

Just a thought on the third picture. For Jimmy Mac to be on it I would have thought it would have been after Bob Lord's death and Butterfield did return for a short time in the mid 80s. Could Waldo be 38 on that pic? If so, I wonder if it is when the ex-Clarets launched the fundraising to help the club towards the end of the Orient season. Butterfield had left by then but I know he was involved as was Tommy Cummings.

W_C_Z, the photo of the railings being removed from the old Cricket Field End is fantastic.

It looks like the large roof stanchions had safety padding around them, a bit like rugby posts do nowadays. Or is my eyesight failing me?

Wasn't the safety padding on the stanchions installed after Ray Pointer, in his normal fashion of chasing everything, went crashing into one and was quite badly injured? I was on the game when he went full pelt into one of the stanchions and remember being genuinely concerned about his potential injuries.

That’s spot on. Ray was stretchered off after colliding with the stanchion but came back out to finish the game. That prompted them to put the padding on them.

Definitely Brian Miller and if claretblue is correct and it's the Hamburg home game the missing players are Blacklaw, Angus, Elder and Mac.
The puzzler for me is exactly what our players are applauding?........Are they giving a round of applause at the end of the game to the Hamburg players as they leave the pitch?........I know the Germans had some great players in their side including Uwe Seeler but it seems a bit strange as it was only the first leg.

I do remember the pitch being an absolute quagmire and yet Brian Pilkington still scored two wonder goals. The incredible thing was that Bob Lord sold him to Bolton before the second leg in Germany.

Off field issues behind Pilky’s sale as it was with Jimmy Mac. I’m certain that’s the Hamburg game.

The pic with the Welcome to Turf Moor board was the launching of the Ex-Clarets fundraising in 1987.

I’ve shown it this morning to someone who appears on the photo - and it won’t take a lot of working out who that is.

Superb team photo there of the 1920/21 side that went 30 games unbeaten in Division One.

All the greats on there including Dawson, Halley, Boyle & Watson, Kelly, Anderson and the rest.

Brilliant stuff, conyoviejo.
