They won the Championship.

Not with Danny Ings, that book is from when they first got promoted in 2014 as runners up, based on the jacket cover.

Yeah, only just seen Ings on the cover.

 

Anyway, Thomas writes books for Burnley now. He's got loads published throughout the years. It's no different to any other club, including us, publishing books.

It is not poorer in quality but because of the money there is a massive gap. Two/three clubs max challenge for the title every season - well, this season has only had one challenger. So many historic clubs in the division, in the country, that will probably never win a top flight title again.

And how is this better than our own story ? 

 

And how does it deserve a thread 

 

 

It is possible for there to be more than one under dog that defied modern football.

 

Just because we won the league doesn't mean every other small team that does well in the Prem needs viewed as "ha yeah you're doing well but you didn't win the league like Leicester so ultimately who gives a shit about you"

 

Well done to them, not a favorite club of mine but certainly can't knock what they've achieved.

Totally.

 

When I was watching the  Wigan game on Monday I was thinking - Wigan, a club that have spent the majority of their seasons in non league, have played in the top flight and won the FA Cup. And that is an unbelievable achievement.
