Any ideas who this is? He has a connection with the bloke on the left of the pic.

I'm not sure Stevo would be impressed, he's only a year older than me. This ex-Claret, no longer with us, was considerably older. I never saw him play.

Les Shannon whom I did see play around 1957/8?

Deffo Les Shannon, still a good head of hair on that photo but it was bright red when he played for us.
After he left Burnley he went on to have a sucessful career in management for 18 years most notably managing Greek clubs.Saw him play a few times in probably his last season with us.
A fine half back in his day .

It was Les Shannon and the connection is that he scored our goal on the day I was born.

The photograph was taken on 30th April 2006. He passed away in December 2007 at the age of 81.

I thought the connection was you were born in the same year

Oh and if it makes you feel any better I saw him play many times. Pure quality

It’s uncanny that Beast is wearing the same shirt and has the same background colour in both pictures….
