They’ll never take the Longside! Reacquaint yourself with the history of Burnley football club through newspaper clippings of the time in this personalised Burnley book. With coverage beginning in 1913, the year of their promotion to the First Division, this fine piece of Burnley football memorabilia takes you through over a century of history, revisiting all the key moments from Turf Moor and beyond, right up until the present day.
A year after their promotion, Burnley won their first F.A. Cup in a 1-0 win over Liverpool. Seven years later, they ended the 1920/21 season as league champions of England, notching a record of 30 straight games unbeaten, which would stand until Arsenal’s 2004 Invincibles team. But the golden era for the Clarets came following the Second World War. After gaining promotion in 1946, Burnley spent a quarter of a century in the top flight, reaching two F.A. Cup finals, winning the league title again in 1960, and reaching the quarter finals of the European Cup a year later. After a spectacular fall from grace, Burnley found themselves in the fourth tier in 1980’s, retaining their league status by the skin of their teeth after a dramatic 2-1 victory over Leyton Orient on the final day of the 1986/87 season. In recent years, Burnley’s fortunes improved, led by Sean Dyche to the promised land of the Premier League.
