BURNLEY BACK UP

Turf Moor fans were celebrating over the weekend with the Clarets confirming their promotion to the Premiership, 125 years since the club helped form the Football League. Burnley were "old" First Division league champions in 1959-60, later meeting the great Spurs side in the 1962 Cup Final, which they lost 3-1.

Derby County,  another founder member, look as though they might join them in the Premiership, making this a significant anniversary.

Wolves, as Champions of Division One, have something to celebrate, beating close rivals Leyton Orient 3-1 today, as well as Preston NE, who having beaten Shrewsbury 5-2 are close to promotion, with only the play-offs between them and success!
