And what a Board- Doc Ivan, Baz Dearing, Jackson, Frank Teasdale and is that Jack Butterfield our commercial manager next to Tommy Cavanagh?
A few decent players on that Pic (decent in so far as we could have stayed above 22nd in the 4th Division) Kevin Hird but think he left before the Orient season as did Biggins (played top flight football), and big Vince Overson-so maybe not.

It's not the Orient season - it's 1985/86 with Buchan & then Cavanagh so we still had Hird, Biggins, Overson, Alan Taylor who had all gone before the Orient season.

Billy Wright made just one first team appearance for us in the Football League Group Cup at Wimbledon in 1981/82. Brian Miller played virtually a reserve team that night and we were beaten 5-0.cricketfield73 wrote:

The team was: Billy O'Rourke, David Miller, Phil Ray, David Holt, Paul Dixon, Colin Anderson, Derek Scott, Phil Cavener, Billy Wright (Mark Allen), Eric Potts, Kevin Young.

Thanks for that great info, hardly a famous name then, but I'd still give my right arm to have had his Clarets career!

Re: Burnley F C in pictures
We lost 2-0 but what has been forgotten is the fact that VAR failed that day due to a shortage of carrier pigeons on the day and the game had to rely on the referee, a certain Tobias Scott (aptly nick named I am biased Scott) the first in a lineage of Scotts who would (dis) grace top flight football for generations. At present that Mantle has been passed down to Tobias' great great not so great Grandson Graham.
