Promotion brings it's own problems. Bigger better clubs sniffing around your better players, your manager having to dabble in the transfer market. Well done to Eddie Howe for providing a bulk of the squad. Has Dyche got what it takes to move forwards and secure a second season in the top flight?
The question is really,will the board allow him to try.
To be fair it's a well run club. They won't bet the ranch to stay up, the long term consequences aren't worth it if it doesn't work. Think most Burnley fans accept that apart from the few fickle ones who think they should win everything, contrary to common belief most are realistic
Glad that the Clarets made it ... not to mention that Stanley are probably safe
Finally, some football I can show an interest in ... I'm a Peel Park veteran who can remember the cold wet nights, with decent pies, and rum in my grandad's coffee.
And I remember going to Turf Moor with him too. We used to stand in the enclosure, just by the tunnel. This allowed my very vocal, loud, grandad to hurl abuse at the officials without busting his lungs and straining his vocal cords ... oh, and to advise Potts on strategy
Sorry for the nostalgic wander.
Congratulations Burnley ... and, hopefully, Stanley! Long live real football! Oh, and real ale

See yeh dont know history Davo, Its the John Bond mistake they don't wanna be making.
Well Eric you must have been standing near me and my dad in the enclosure. Now I know who was making all the noise. Great days those. I am thrilled that Burnley are back where they belong. Who knows what will happen next season but this manager is capable of making a good job of it. I think he and the whole club deserve praise for what they have done on a shoestring not like other clubs who have bought their way up the ladder.
At least they do not owe anything. They own the ground and the training ground so there will be plenty of money now to improve the squad. Well done you Clarets.
