What is Kobo Super Points?

He remains tight-lipped on January spending, and his own future at the club. He might not be smiling after seeing said replay. Newcastle win their third consecutive league game and their first away from home this season. They were a bit fortunate to find themselves up early on but played superbly thereafter and fully deserved to win.

Burnley huffed and puffed but looked short of confidence. That was the last touch of the match. Another free-kick to Burnley , this one almost like a short corner from the right Hart is coming forward This is probably their last chance He staggers around dazed for a few seconds before getting back to business.

They look reasonably comfortable, though Burnley are starting to put them under a lot of physical pressure. Joselu hits the post! The chance was created superbly by Perez, who danced elegantly past a Burnley defender and played an instant angled through pass. Joselu, who made a fine run from right to left, belted a first-time shot on rhe run that beat Hart and clattered off the far post. Over and over again. Vokes leaves it for Wood, who slices a half-volley high over the bar from 12 yards.

That was another decent chance. A poor defensive header from Ritchie goes to Brady, who shoots well wide from 20 yards. Brady is a fine player but he looks very rusty. In his relatively short spell at the club from to , Brown also introduced short corners and a huge array of free kick routines, which were soon copied across the land. The team of this period revolved around the midfield duo of Jimmy Adamson and Jimmy McIlroy a new stand was named after the latter in the s and these two were key to the championship-winning team of —60 managed by Potts who now gives his name to the road which Turf Moor occupies.

Harry Potts often employed the, at the time unfashionable, 4—4—2 formation and he introduced Total Football to English football in his first seasons at the club. Burnley endured a tense —60 season in which Tottenham Hotspur and Wolverhampton Wanderers were the other protagonists in the chase for the league title, but the club ultimately clinched their second league championship on the last day of the season at Maine Road , Manchester with a 2—1 victory against Manchester City with goals from Brian Pilkington and Trevor Meredith.

The following season Burnley played in European competition for the first time, [42] beating former European Cup finalists Reims , before losing to Hamburger SV in the quarter-finals , losing in a FA Cup semi-final to Tottenham and finishing fourth in the league. Burnley finished the —62 season as runners-up after only winning two of the last thirteen league matches [43] to newly promoted Ipswich Town and had a run to the FA Cup Final , where a Jimmy Robson goal, the th FA Cup Final goal at Wembley, [44] was their only reply to 3 goals from Spurs.

Jimmy Adamson was, however, named Footballer of the Year in English football after the season ended. Nonetheless, although far from a two-man team, the controversial departure of McIlroy to Stoke City and retirement of Adamson coincided with a decline in fortunes. Adamson reputedly turned down the England manager's post which then went to former Ipswich manager Alf Ramsey. Burnley, could no longer compete financially with teams from bigger towns and cities. They had also reached the quarter-finals of the —67 Fairs Cup , in which they were knocked out by German side Eintracht Frankfurt.

The remainder of the decade was otherwise one of mid-table mediocrity, with Potts being replaced by Adamson as manager in after a year spell.

Burnley won the Second Division title in —73 with Adamson still in charge. As a result, they were invited to play in the FA Charity Shield where they emerged as winners against the reigning holders of the shield, Manchester City. Three nondescript seasons in the Second Division followed before relegation to the Third Division for the first time in — Of 42 league games, Burnley could not manage a win in either their first or last Two seasons later, now under the management of Brian Miller , [55] they were promoted as champions. Managerial changes continued to be made in an unsuccessful search for success; Miller was replaced by Frank Casper in early , he by John Bond before the —84 season and Bond himself by John Benson a season later.

Benson was in charge when Burnley were relegated to the fourth level of English football for the first time ever at the end of the —85 season. Martin Buchan briefly and then Tommy Cavanagh saw the side through the —86 season before Miller returned for the —87 season, the last match of which is known as ' The Orient Game '. Although, in retrospect, this has only served to blur the lines between professional and semi-professional leagues in England, at the time it was perceived that teams losing league status might never recover from this.

A 2—1 win, with goals from Neil Grewcock and Ian Britton , was enough to keep Burnley in Division Four, although even that achievement still relied on a loss by Lincoln City in their last game of the season. A capacity crowd of 80, people packed Wembley was a record for a match between two teams from English football's fourth tier, as Wolves won 2—0.

By winning the Fourth Division title, the Clarets became only the second club to have won all top four professional divisions of English football and the team is currently one of five clubs to have achieved this feat, along with Wolverhampton Wanderers , Preston North End , Sheffield United and Portsmouth.

That too was as a result of a match at Wembley, this time after a fierce battle against local club Stockport County. Chris Waddle was manager in that season, but his departure and the appointment of Stan Ternent that summer saw the club start to make further progress. Burnley immediately made an impact, as during the —01 and —02 seasons, they emerged as serious contenders for a promotion play-off place. By —03 , the side's form had declined despite a good FA Cup run, where they reached the quarter-finals. This was repeated the following season and in June , Ternent's six years as manager came to an end, narrowly avoiding relegation in his last season.

Steve Cotterill was then appointed as manager of the club. He was not able to improve on this the following season, as Burnley finished 17th. Burnley made a good start to the —07 campaign, but their form tailed away badly shortly before Christmas, leaving them threatened by relegation. The squad set a club record for consecutive league games without a win, with their game against Luton Town being the 18th one of the season 19 including a cup game , meaning they had gone one fixture further than the 17 league game streak of the —90 season.

After that, a short run of good form in the final weeks of the competition saw Burnley finish comfortably above the relegation places, ensuring that they remained in the Championship. The following season Burnley's poor early-season results led to the departure of manager Steve Cotterill in November His replacement was St Johnstone manager Owen Coyle. Coyle's first full season in charge ended with the Clarets ' highest league finish since , fifth in the Championship.

Burnley beat Reading 3—0 on aggregate in the semi-final, and the team went on to beat Sheffield United 1—0 in the final at Wembley Stadium , promoting Burnley to the Premier League , a return to the top flight after 33 years. After being up by three goals to nil at home after 90 minutes, the away goals rule comes into play after extra time has been played in the League Cup, [74] the Clarets crashed out after two Spurs goals in the last two minutes of extra time, preventing two Wembley appearances in one season.

Burnley's promotion made the town of Burnley the smallest to host a Premier League club, since the rebranding of the league divisions in He was replaced by Brian Laws , but the club's form plummeted under the new manager, and they were relegated after a single season in the Premier League. Nonetheless, he left the club in October to rejoin his hometown club Bournemouth; Howe citing personal reasons for the move.

Before the start of the —14 season, Burnley were tipped as one of the relegation candidates, as Dyche had to work with a tight budget and a small squad, and they had lost top goal scorer Charlie Austin to Championship rivals QPR. Burnley went yet one better than their previous time in the Championship and won the division in —16 , equaling their club record of 93 points of —14, ending the season with a run of 23 league games undefeated. With a combination of excellent home form with poor away results, Burnley finished the —17 season in 16th place, six points above the relegation zone, and were thus ensured to play consecutive seasons in the top flight for the first time since — Moreover, Burnley's home form continued to be strong too, drawing against eventual inexpugnable league champions and record breakers Manchester City 1—1.
