As above but O'Neill and Waldron replacing McGreal and Mee.
Geoff Nulty, Ralph Coates, John Angus, Nick Pope and David Eyres as subs.

ONeil
Waldron
Tarkowski

Morgan
Lochhead
Irvine
Coates.
Impact sub.. Kindon.
Nulty sub for versatility.
Wouldn't want to get on wrong side of a partnership between Tarkowski and Waldron.

Re: Your team of favourite Burnley players
Blacklaw, Angus, Elder, O'Neil, Miller, Todd, Morgan, Lochhead, Irvine, Harris, Coates. In fact, the only BFC team I can reel off fast without thinking. The 1965/66 team which finished third.
Re: Your team of favourite Burnley players
God that's a difficult question. A very good one though.
Will need to muse over that.

Re: Your team of favourite Burnley players
I saw him play full back and centre back and I'm sure he was sent up front in desperation. I believe he had a spell in midfield at Sunderland.
I'm not sure what he was like as a goalkeeper or winger though.
Unfortunately I'm restricted by the rules because he was my only favourite player.

Good line up but if I can make one tweak there, I would replace Colin Waldron with Graham Branch.

If not for big Billy, Roger may have got in my team. He found his home here- in his career he played for 13 clubs. Only played around 150 games in total and scored 22 goals. 99 of the games and 20 of the goals were for Burnley!Vino blanco wrote: ↑Sun Sep 25, 2022 8:20 pmBit tricky this one, so I've gone for players, who seemed special to me at the time they played

Not sure on the keeper.
I think the opposition attack would have a feast.
