Hello Ray. Hope you're doing well. The Aberdeen Clarets, we'll be there, well I'm sure some of us will be. A tougher proposition than the days of Jimmy Mullen!

Jimmy Mullen days were brilliant, but we've moved on a bit since then. Bet I know you.UTC

Well I hope so. How about Carlisle away? We were back in the Crown by 8 30. I was driving.
All, Ray is a Burnley diehard, any info needed for the away game he'll keep you right.

Remember it well. Border City Firm came in and we made a quick exit. After all there was only 4 of us and about 20 of them. Took over Brunton though.

Burnely havent been in Europe for over 50 years yet are seeded.

Actually, have they ever played European football?

1960–61 European Cup
The Clarets won their second league championship in the 1959–60 season and thus qualified for the European Cup the following season. Their first opponents were Stade de Reims, the French champions. Burnley won the first leg 2–0 at Turf Moor, however lost the away leg at the Parc des Princes 3–2. This was enough to send the English club through to the quarter-finals, where the West German champions Hamburger SV awaited. Burnley again won the home leg, though a crushing 4–1 defeat at the Volksparkstadion saw them leave the competition.

1960–61 European Cup First round Stade de Reims 2–0 2–3 4–3
Quarter-final Hamburger SV 3–1 1–4 4–5

After finishing third in the 1965–66 season, Burnley entered the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup in the 1966–67 season, along with fellow English clubs West Bromwich Albion and the eventual beaten finalists Leeds United. Burnley, just as in the European Cup previously, would be undone by a West German team in the shape of Eintracht Frankfurt.
