Burnley FC - The London Clarets - Nothing to Write Home About - Archive

Here you'll find reports and recollections of memorable games, some written at the time, some later. Amongst others, we can offer an eyewitness account of the day we won the league in 1960, the triumph of our famous thrashing of the mighty Leeds in 1974, the near despair of The Orient Game, the ecstasy of our Fourth Division championship clincher at York in 1992, our win at Wembley in 1994 and our against odds survival from 1998.
