Burnley Football Club

Burnley FC rejoins Premiership, completing turn of fortune for club. Burnley Football Club returns to the Barclay’s Premier League on 15 August, 2009 as they face Stoke City on the road at Britannia Stadium. Burnley FC is returning to England’s top flight of football after a 33 year absence.

Burnley’s first game in the 2009-2010 Premiership will mark the completion of an astonishing turn around for a club that was on the brink of being relegated from the Football League all together in 1987.

This past spring (2009), the Clarets defeated Sheffield United 1-0 in the Championship’s playoff final to gain promotion to the Premier League.

Burnley FC has a rich history in English football that goes back over 125 years. The Clarets are one of the founding members of the Football League. In 1888 Burnley, along with 11 other teams, founded the Football League. In the early decades of the newly founded league, Burnley experienced success on many different levels.

The club captured its first major trophy in 1914, defeating Liverpool FC 1-0 in the FA Cup final. The club’s first major league championship came during the 1920-21 season when they won England’s top flight after finishing second in the top flight in the prior season. After this point, league success would come at all levels of competition in England, but was interspersed with droughts in their form.

Burnley has been up and down through all four divisions of English football in their history, earning them a unique spot in the league’s history. Burnley FC is one of only three clubs to have won a championship in each of the four divisions. In addition to their 1920-21 success in the top flight, they captured another title in 1959-60, and have captured the second division title twice, and once each in the third and fourth divisions.

Turf Moor – Burnley FC Stadium

The Clarets hold another distinction in English football that is surpassed by only one team. Burnley has played their football on the same ground since 1883, at Turf Moor. Only Preston North End has occupied the same ground continuously for a longer period than Burnley has been at Turf Moor. The stadium can currently hold 22,546 seated, though with Burnley’s promotion to the Premier League, plans are back in the mix to expand seating capacity to 28,000. Turf Moor has played host to one FA Cup semi-final. The game was played in 1922 and saw Huddersfield Town beat Notts County 3-1. The record attendance at the stadium was set in 1924 during an FA Cup 3rd round game as 54,755 saw Burnley host Huddersfield Town. Turf Moor’s North and East end seating stands were rebuilt in 1996 and are at current the largest and newest stands in the stadium. With its promotion to the Premier League secure, the Clarets hope to expand seating in the West and South stands to bring the stadiums total to 28,000.

Burnley FC Manager

On November 22, 2007 Scottish born, Ireland international Owen Coyle was introduced as the new manager at Burnley Football Club. Coyle took over a club that was finally stable on the field and led the team to a respectable 13th place finish on 62 points in the Championship. Coyle’s first full season in 2008-09 would be even more impressive as he led his team to a 5th place finish in the Championship and secured promotion through playoff victories. Coyle was a prolific striker in his playing days. After beginning his career with Dumbarton, Coyle bounced around to several different Scottish teams and even had a spell with Bolton Wanderers. Prior to joining Burnley, Coyle led Scotland’s St. Johnstone to back to back 2nd place finishes in Scotland’s second tier.

It was a slow start, but soon, with Sir Alex at the helm, Man U began to flourish. During his career at Manchester Utd., Ferguson has won the English Premier League eleven times, the League Cup three times, the FA Cup five times, the Champions League twice, and many other various championship wins.

Manchester United Stadium

The home of the Red Devil’s is Old Trafford, and has been since 1910. The stadium has also been given the name, "The Theatre of Dreams," by Manchester United’s famous manager Sir Matt Busby. The stadium itself has had an intriguing history. At the beginning of World Ward II, it was used as a depot for the army, and football competition continued there just as before. Then, in December 1940, it was damaged by a German air raid. Play was temporary moved until the following March, when only a few days later it was bombed a second time, rendering it useless. Man U did not play anymore games at Old Trafford until it was repaired in 1949.

After years of rebuilding and renovation, Old Trafford has become biggest stadium of any English Premier League team, with 76,212 seats. Old Trafford is a 5-star rated, "Elite" UEFA stadium, meaning it meets the high standards of UEFA to hold the Champions League Final.

Man Utd have won 18 domestic league championships, tying them with Liverpool for the most. They have also won many other honours, both domestically and internationally.

Since the new beginning in 1902, Man U has had a few struggles, but that is overshadowed by their enormous success.
Between World War I and World War II the team juggled between victory and failure, moving back and forth from the first division to the second division. After WWII, the team has been nothing short of spectacular, being regulated from the top division only once.

Manchester United are popularly known as The Red Devils, Man U, or Man Utd.
