Father & Son for Burnley

Post by wilks_bfc » Sat Jan 27, 2024 6:09 pm

Mellon having a good debut for Dundee got me thinking, if he was to make a first team appearance for us he would then have followed his father in doing so, but how many other father/sons have we had?

I can think of;
Derek & Chris/Paul Scott
Walter & Warren Joyce

Are there any others?

They weren’t father and son. I think they might have been cousins.

I don’t think there are any more than those listed although

Kiko (dad of Jay) Rodriguez and Nicky (son of Mike) Summerbee both played reserve games for us.

Why don't the Lampards get an apostrophe?

That’s a stupid question to ask at 10-30 pm when I’ve had a few drinks.

If the Lampards got an apostrophe that would be the Lampard’s apostrophe.

Bit of an educated guess.
