Burnley v Tottenham: Dallas couple travel 31 hours to see postponed match but Harry Kane saves day

Imagine making a 31-hour journey just to see your football club play - and then having the match postponed for snow when you arrive.

That's just what happened to Tottenham fans Ken and Brandi Saxton, who made the journey from Dallas in America to see Spurs at Burnley on Sunday.

The couple had no idea what was to follow when they posted on social about their 31-hour sleepless journey to East Lancashire the day before - some 24 hours later the post had become viral.

As the snow came down heavily overnight at Turf Moor on Saturday and into Sunday morning, the excited couple begin to fear things may not end well - and their fears were confirmed when the match was postponed less than a hour before kick-off.
