Club reveals plans to commemorate centenary of FA Cup success
|
Burnley Football Club is very proud to be celebrating the centenary of the club’s historic FA Cup triumph of 1914.
The Clarets overcame Liverpool 1-0 at the Crystal Palace Grounds on the very first occasion that the reigning monarch attended professional football’s most prestigious fixture.
After the final whistle, His Majesty King George V presented the famous old trophy to Burnley captain, Tommy Boyle, and handed specially-inscribed winners’ medals to the skipper and all his team mates.
At the final home game of the 2013-14 season, against Ipswich Town on Saturday, 26 April - almost 100 years to the day of the 1914 final - Burnley FC plans to honour that fabulous occasion.
