Burnley Football Club, established in 1882, stands as one of the world's oldest and most storied football institutions. A founding member of the Football League in 1888, Burnley has clinched the First Division title twice in the 1920s and secured an FA Cup victory, marking their early dominance in English football.
Burnley's first promotion to the Premier League came for the 2009/10 season and since then they have yoyo-ed between the Premier League and Championship having been relegated 3 times during that time. Their best Premier League finish came during the 2017/18 season where they finish 7th taking them into the qualifying rounds of the Europa League.
With an average league position of 15th during their 9 seasons in the Premier League, Burnley often flirt with relegation with the 2023/24 season also seeing them within the relegation zone.
Presently, Burnley FC is under the ownership of Alan Pace and his sports investment firm, ALK Capital, which took a controlling stake in December 2020. Valued at approximately £140 million at the time of purchase, the club benefits from its owners' commitment to fostering growth through investment in the squad, infrastructure, and community initiatives, aiming to solidify Burnley's presence in the Premier League.
Turf Moor, home to Burnley Football Club since 1883, is one of the Premier League's oldest grounds. It can host over 20,000 fans, serving both as a stronghold for the team and a beloved landmark in Burnley. Its rich history and vibrant atmosphere showcase the town's passion for football, making match days key for locals and global fans alike. Over the years, Turf Moor has seen several updates to improve the fan experience while keeping its historical essence, reflecting the club's goal to evolve while honoring its heritage.
