The History Men

Major players from the Clarets’ past met at the Barnfield Training Centre for an informal celebration of its present with manager Sean Dyche.

Paul Fletcher, Colin Waldron, Stan Ternent, Frank Casper, Geoff Nulty and Jim Thomson were guests of the Burnley boss.

Dyche showed the six – who between them racked up over 1,500 playing appearances for the Clarets and almost 400 games in management – around the training facility at Gawthorpe.

The former team-mates, who remain great friends, also shared lunch with the management team and chatted with members of the current squad before presenting Dyche with a framed, signed picture of Sir Stanley Matthews.
