I have mentioned the 1946/47 promotion winning team elsewhere. Conceding just 29 goals in 42 games their resolute defenders earned the nickname (the iron curtain defence). I am not, contrary to rumour, old enough to have seen that team in action myself though my father and grandfather will have watched them. Our current crop have shipped just 6 goals so far in 17 league games and should they maintain that miserly rate of concession will earn their own place in Clarets history and perhaps a nickname of their own.
