Posted on 01 May 2015.
Sean Dyche must have hoped that his side’s victory over Manchester City in March would kickstart a survival bid but Burnley have not scored and picked up only one point from the five matches since then, and last Saturday’s home defeat by Leicester means they head to east London five points adrift of safety. West Ham, with only one win in their last 13 games, seem ideal opposition. Paul Chronnell Kick-off Saturday 3pm Continue reading…

Posted on 17 October 2014.
Burnley finally ended a club-record run of 10 hours and 55 minutes without a goal in their 2-2 draw with Leicester before the international break and now Danny Ings, scorer of 26 goals last season, could return from injury.
