Burnley's league title victory of 1960 remains one of the most
remarkable feats in the history of English football, the club the
smallest ever to win its premier title. Despite spending far less
than other champions and drawing more modest crowds, Burnley beat
the likes of Manchester United, Spurs and Wolves by playing
exciting, fluid, continental-style football that won many admirers.
'I wanted to applaud their artistry,' Jimmy Greaves commented. 'In
an era when quite a few teams believed in the big boot, they were a
league of gentlemen.' Former player Brian Miller described how
grounded the team were at the time: 'Several of us worked at Bank
Hall pit all day and then played First Division football. Spurs'
players didn't do that.' Never Had It So Good reveals how Burnley's
amazing title triumph was achieved - and how very different life
was for a footballer in those bygone days.
