The Clarets Trust welcomes the appointment of Nicky Hayen as the new Head Coach of Burnley Football Club and wishes him every success at Turf Moor. He arrives at an important moment for the club, with preparations for the new season already under way and a clear need for stability, focus and momentum.

It is clear that he is a coach whose reputation has grown quickly because of what he has achieved, not because of profile alone.

At Club Brugge, Hayen showed that he could step into a demanding environment and deliver immediate results. Taking over during a difficult period, he helped guide the club to the Belgian title, before adding further silverware and gaining valuable experience in European competition. Those achievements point to a coach capable of organising a side, handling expectation and improving performance under pressure.

The timing of the appointment is also important. Bringing in a head coach ready for the US tour gives our club a better chance to align recruitment, pre-season planning and playing style before the competitive season begins. Supporters will expect clarity and ambition, and we hope our new manager will get the backing of the club to build a squad capable of meeting our expectations.

We also hope he will be a manager who communicates openly with supporters and engages positively with the wider Burnley community. The relationship between the club, the town and its supporters has always mattered deeply, and any Head Coach who understands that connection will quickly appreciate what makes Burnley Football Club special.

On behalf of The Clarets Trust, we welcome Nicky Hayen to Burnley and look forward to seeing him get to work. He will have the unwavering support of Burnley fans if he shows the same commitment to the club that we give from the stands every week. Good luck, Nicky!

Clarets' season ends with a 1-1 draw against Wolves
Burnley and Wolves played out a 1-1 draw on the final day of the 2025/26 Premier League season. Adam Armstrong's fifth minute penalty, after Florentino was penalised for handball by VAR, handed the visitors an early lead.
Zian Flemming's 11th top-flight goal of the season drew the Clarets level moments into the second half, playing a neat one two with Loum Tchaouna before unleashing an unstoppable low strike into the bottom corner.
And that was how it finished, with Burnley ending the campaign in 19th spot, two points ahead of their visitors in 20th.
On a sweltering afternoon in Lancashire, the deadlock was broken from the penalty spot inside three minutes, after Florentino was adjudged to have handled inside the area. Fans will wonder why Walker chose to take on Hee-Chan on the goal line when he had ample opportunity to clear. We failed to clear the resulting free-kick and two subsequent corners before the penalty.
Armstrong stepped up from 12-yards and slammed home the opener to give Wolves an early lead. The visitors went close to doubling their lead 10 minutes later, when Mateus Mane struck the outside of the post with an effort from range.
With nothing much to separate the two sides in a tight first-half, Max Weiss was then called into action to make an excellent save to deny Santiago Bueno from hammering in from a corner shortly after the half-hour mark. The final two chances of the half fell the way of the hosts - Jaidon Anthony and Florentino each testing Wolves keeper’ Jose Sa, who was equal to both goal-bound strikes.
It didn’t take long for the Clarets to get going in the second half -Jackson’s side finding a leveller inside two minutes. Flemming played a smart one-two with Tchaouna on the edge of the area, with the striker then sweeping the ball sweetly into the bottom corner past Sa to draw the scores level.
There was a chance for the visitors to regain their lead soon after - Bashir Humphreys slipped inside his own half with Mane picking up possession and running in towards goal, but the youngster could only fire over the target from inside the box. In a lively opening 10 minutes of the second half, the Clarets then struck the outside of the post, with Florentino’s in swinging cross ricocheting to safety off the upright.
Following a tight first-half, the second half was an end-to-end affair. Hannibal came close to bagging Burnley’s second of the afternoon, but the midfielder’s incredible solo effort trickled under the body of Sa, before being cleared away just in front of the goal-line. Shortly after that chance, Jackson made his first change of the afternoon with just over 20 minutes left on the clock, as Hannibal was replaced by Zeki Amdouni.
Another change 10 minutes later saw Marcus Edwards replace Tchaouna, with the substitute coming close to putting Burnley ahead, but his curled effort sailed over the crossbar
Chances continued to flow with Sa making saves from Pires and Barnes, but it ended
All square giving Burnley the benefit of, by some accounts, a “merit” payment of £2.6m more than the bottom placed Wolves.

Although the last few games under Mike Jackson have shown more spark, the season has been a depressing experience. It seems likely that we said goodbye to a number of players yesterday. Some, especially Flemming, have done well; Barnes has been great over the years, others have added little – no doubt contributing to the lack of interest and involvement in the traditional lap of honour.

Once again we face a summer of change but the 15,000 season ticket holders already signed up will be looking forward to the fixtures on 25 June with four “Lancashire” teams in the Championship. Let's hope the owners attempt to rebuild relationships with fans.

Burnley defeated in the capital
Burnley produced a brave and spirited display but came up just short against Arsenal on Monday night. Kai Havertz scored the only goal of the game at the Emirates Stadium, as Mikel Arteta's side ground out a key victory in their pursuit of the Premier League title.
Havertz was lucky to still be on the pitch midway through the second half though, when a VAR check adjudged his studs up challenge down the back of Lesley Ugochukwu's calf to only warrant a booking, when replays suggested it appeared worthy of a red.
On a balmy night in the capital, the Clarets started brightly and won a couple of early corners, with Florentino’s strike fizzing just wide of David Raya’s goal, in what was a positive start for the visitors.
Arsenal soon grew into the clash and began to apply pressure on the away side, with Leandro Trossard’s stinging effort from outside the area bouncing off the post.
With no real chances created for the Gunners as the game reached the midway mark, Burnley carved open a great opportunity on the counterattack. The move started with Zian Flemming spreading the ball out wide to Loum Tchaouna, with the winger racing down the right, before picking out an unmarked Hannibal at the back-post but the Tunisian international could only steer his rushed effort wide of the target under pressure from Declan Rice.
Mikel Arteta’s men responded to that opportunity with one of their own - first Bukayo Saka saw his dinked lob creep past the far-post, before Maxime Esteve made a crucial sliding block to deny Havertz unleashing an effort on goal from inside the area. As the hosts began to turn it up a notch, a VAR penalty check was then turned down for the Gunners, after Saka had gone over inside the box, before Martin Odegaard saw his effort deflect wide for a corner.
From the resulting corner, Arsenal opened the scoring. Havertz rose highest to meet Saka’s corner to head in from close range and give the London side a half-time advantage.
Eberechi Eze gifted the Clarets an early chance in the opening stages of the second half but Jaidon Anthony could only curl his effort over. Up at the other end, Eze was involved again, but this time his half-volley sailed over the crossbar.
Burnley were pushing for an equaliser and had another chance a few moments later. Ugochukwu stole the ball from Cristhian Mosquera, before laying it off for Tchaouna, who found Hannibal, but the midfielder struck well over from fully 25-yards out.
With the game approaching the 70th minute, there was a VAR check for a possible red card for Havertz following a rash challenge on Ugochukwu. Yet despite a lengthy check, VAR deemed it to be a yellow card only. Havertz, by most commentators’ view, was fortunate.
Burnley continued to cause a threat late on, but Arsenal held on to edge a step closer to the title. Burnley could leave the stadium with their head high; we didn’t make it easy for Arsenal and were always in with a shout but the usual lack of a calm and clinical finisher affected us.
Arsenal: Raya, Saliba, Mosquera, Magalhães, Saka, Odegaard (Zubimendi 90) Eze (Lewis-Skelly 73), Trossard (Martinell 90), Havertz (Gyokeres 73), Calafiori (Hincapiè 73), Rice
Unused substitutes: Arrizabalaga, Jesus, Madueke, Dowman
Burnley: Weiss, Walker, Estève (Humphreys 83), Tuanzebe, Ugochukwu (Laurent 69), Anthony, Florentino (Ward-Prowse 78), Tchaouna (Bruun Larsen 83), Flemming, Pires, Mejbri (Amdouni 69)

It finishes all square at Turf Moor
Honours ended even on Sunday afternoon, as Burnley played out an entertaining draw against Aston Villa at Turf Moor. On a topsy-turvy afternoon, it was Burnley who took the lead in the ninth minute courtesy of Jaidon Anthony. Lesley Ugochukwu's shot from the edge of the box was palmed away by Emi Martinez, but Anthony was there to fire home the rebound from close range.
Villa squandered various chances and had an Ollie Watkins effort ruled out for offside, but they drew level three minutes before the break, when Ross Barkley rose tallest to head home from a corner. The visitors went ahead early in the second half when Watkins seized on Martinez's pinpoint long ball from the back, calmly slotting home.
Burnley weren't behind for long though, as Zian Flemming - following a sublime assist from Hannibal - fired home a leveller on 59 minutes for his tenth league goal of the season.
After a positive start from the Clarets, Burnley took the lead on nine minutes when Anthony pounced on Martinez’s save from Ugochukwu’s initial effort, slotting home the opener from close range. There was little to separate the two sides following that early goal, but Jackson’s side wasted a golden chance to double their lead midway through the half, when Zian Flemming could only steer Loum Tchaouna’s cross high and wide when well-placed inside the box.
Despite Villa seeing lots of the ball, Burnley were looking dangerous whenever they threw bodies forward, carving open another opportunity on the half-hour mark, when Lucas Pires’ forced Martinez into another save. Soon after, Villa did eventually create a chance of note, coming inches away from equalising when Barkley dragged his effort just wide of the post.
Unai Emery’s men then thought they had grabbed their equaliser moments later, as Morgan Rogers crossed into the area for Watkins to head home, but following a VAR check, the goal was rightly ruled out for offside. However, the visitors didn't have to wait long to level matters, drawing level shortly before the break when Barkley met John McGinn’s corner and glanced home into the far corner.
Burnley started the second half brightly again and carved open a glorious opportunity to regain the lead, as Hannibal slid the ball across the face of goal, but Flemming just couldn’t quite fully connect from a few yards out.
Jackson’s side were then made to pay for missing that chance, as Villa went in front just a minute later, with Martinez picking out Watkins directly from a goal-kick and, after a fortunate bounce of his shoulder, the forward went on to race into the area and slot home under the body of the advancing Weiss.

However, in an end-to-end clash, Burnley were back level just moments later, this time Flemming made no mistake, with a smart finish from Hannibal’s back-heel to make it 2-2.
Villa had a chance to take the lead once again in the 75th minute, but McGinn could only head Lucas Digne’s cross just wide of the goal at the back-post.
Both sides went in search of a winner in six added minutes, but it ended with the spoils shared. Burnley had lost their past five games - and only won once since October. So getting a point, including fighting back, against the team fifth in the table gave their fans something to cheer about – albeit with many empty seats in the stadium.
They were more aggressive that in previous games and fully matched Villa, having 15 shots, six on target. All in all it was a much better, and positive, performance with Tchouna and Tuanzebe having their best game in a purple shirt. Weiss played well on his league debut, Hannibal was his usual energetic and effective self and showed a wonderful touch to lay on Flemming to equalise.
Burnley: Weiss, Walker, Estève, Anthony, Tuanzebe, Ugochukwu (Laurent 79), Anthony (Bruun Larsen 87), Florentino (Ward-Prowse 87), Tchaouna, Flemming (Amdouni 79), Pires, Mejbri (Foster 69)

An appeal from a Trust member that’s worth supporting:
“Good afternoon. Sadly last September my son, Tim Connors - a staunch Burnley supporter and season ticket holder, died of Cancer. He was a teacher at Nidderdale High School in Pateley Bridge, near Harrogate. His school community is doing a fundraiser called 'Rememberjng Mr Connors 22' - doing 22 activities ( to represent the 22 years he taught at the school ) to raise funds for an outdoor shelter for the students. They are theming many of their fundraising activities around Tim's interests. They started by turning their school Claret and Blue with a non uniform day and have also some year 11 students did a sponsored run of 38 miles ( the distance from Nidderdale High School to Tim's beloved Turf Moor). One of the parents communicated with the club asking if any support could be given. BFC very kindly donated a gift of two Chairman's lounge tickets , preceded by a three course meal, for the last game of this season. This gift is being auctioned on 32auctions.com by the school. I was wondering if the Trust could perhaps let members know about this opportunity? The school has asked if I can spread the word.
Many thanks for your consideration.
Jill Connors”

Clarets defeated in Yorkshire
Burnley fell to defeat at Elland Road on Friday night, losing 3-1 to Leeds United, in Interim Head Coach's Mike Jackson's first of four scheduled games in charge between now and the end of the Premier League season.
Anton Stach's seventh minute goal gave the Whites a deserved 1-0 lead at half-time, before Noah Okafor and Dominic Calvert-Lewin added to the Leeds goal tally early in the second half, before Loum Tchaouna pulled a goal back - his second of the season against the Whites - 19 minutes from time.
Leeds were worthy winners though, edging Daniel Farke's men nine points clear of the relegation zone, towards Premier League safety.
On a balmy Yorkshire night, Burnley fell behind inside seven minutes. After a dominant opening from the Whites, Stach let fly from fully 20-yards, sending a low piledriver beyond the slow to react Martin Dúbravka, to hand the hosts a deserved lead.
Elland Road was bouncing, and Ao Tanaka tried his luck from distance on the quarter hour, only to send his shot into the stands. Burnley found their feet as the clock ticked towards the 30-minute mark but, despite an improved showing, Jackson's side were unable to breach a well-marshalled Leeds back four, especially the ease that the Leeds central defenders coped with high balls.
When the visitors did eventually create an opening, on the stroke of half-time, Jaidon Anthony's back-post header from Tchaouna's cross hit team-mate Zian Flemming while at the other end, James Justin's low strike was well held by Dúbravka.
That Justin chance proved to be the final one of a frustrating half for the Clarets, as the hosts headed into the break a goal to the good.
Burnley started the second period on the front foot, with James Ward-Prowse's looping 47th minute effort deflecting into the hands of Karl Darlow. But it was Leeds who notched the all-important second goal of the night six minutes later when Calvert-Lewin and Jayden Bogle combined to tee up Okafor in space at the back post to make it two. Calvert-Lewin added a third moments later, tapping home from close-range after Tanaka's shot from the edge of the box was palmed into his path by Dúbravka.
Substitute Lucas Pires thought he'd pulled a goal back for the visitors on 69 minutes, but the assistant referee's flag intervened, with VAR confirming the defender was marginally offside. The Clarets did, however, reduce arrears two minutes later, when Tchaouna slammed home from 12-yards out for his second league goal of the season - a consolation goal for the already-relegated Clarets, which could not inspire a fightback and the winless league run stretched to nine matches.
Zeki Amdouni entered the fray late on, for his first appearance of an injury-ravaged season - but the Clarets were well beaten by that stage, as the Whites eased to victory. Once again we deservedly got nothing out of a game where our defence looked shaky, our midfield could not retain the ball and had little energy until Hannibal came on and our attack rarely looked dangerous. Ward-Prowse, the set piece specialist, did not have a single corner to demonstrate his skills. Mike Jackson’s team looked no different from his predecessor’s.
It has been a bruising few days for Burnley. Only eight days after their relegation to the Championship was confirmed, the club announced head coach Parker had left his position by mutual consent. Less than 48 hours later, this defeat underlined the contrasting fortunes of the two sides since their return to the Premier League.
Last May, Leeds pipped Burnley to the Championship title on goal difference after both sides amassed 100 points. But nearly 12 months on, the gap between them is far more significant - now standing at five places and 23 points. Burnley, by contrast, have managed just four wins all season and have been stuck in the relegation zone since November.
This is not just a defeat that must serve as a lesson but the season as a whole. Since the relegation in 2022 after six consecutive years in the topflight, Burnley have yo-yoed between the top two tiers with three relegations (and two promotions) in five years. It is clear that the model Burnley are working towards has flaws and will require significant changes in the summer if they are to not only secure another promotion but also to re-establish themselves as a competitive Premier League side.
Leeds United: Darlow, Bogle (James 90+4), Ampadu, Struijk, Rodon, Calvert-Lewin (Gnonto 90+4), Bijol, Stach (Aaronson 72), Okafor (Nmecha 64), Tanaka (Longstaff 72), Justin

Clarets relegated following City defeat
Burnley's relegation from the Premier League was confirmed on Wednesday night, following defeat to Manchester City.
The Clarets' fate was sealed, as Pep Guardiola's Citizens climbed to the summit of the league with a 1-0 win at Turf Moor. Erling Haaland scored the only goal of the game to clinch victory for the visitors.
The Clarets carved open the first opportunity of the game. The recalled Loum Tchaouna drove forward and teed up Jaidon Anthony on the edge of the box, only for the forward to see his effort pushed away by Gianluigi Donnarumma.
However, just two minutes later, City were ahead. Jeremy Doku, given too much space by Humphries, won the ball in the middle of the park and threaded a perfectly-timed through ball in for Haaland, who raced through into the area, before dinking over the oncoming Martin Dúbravka with a neat finish from close range.
There was a chance for the Clarets to draw things level moments later, but Abdukodir Khusanov was in the right place at the right time to deny Quilindschy Hartman’s effort with a smart block.
Burnley created another opportunity just after the quarter hour mark, but Zian Flemming could only steer his strike just wide of the post, having worked his way into a good position on the edge of the box.
City’s next chance came midway through the first-half, as Nico O’Reilly met Bernardo Silva’s corner at the back-post, but the youngster saw his header palmed away by Dúbravka.
Following a lively opening half-an-hour, chances dried up for both sides in the final 15 minutes of the half, as City headed into the break a goal to the good.
City came out on the front foot at the start of the second half and had an early chance to double their lead, but Antonine Semenyo could only guide his close-range strike over the crossbar.
Haaland then came close to bagging his second shortly after, clipping the outside of the post. The away side were in the driving seat - Dúbravka made a smart stop to deny City substitute Savinho, before Haaland thrashed over when presented with another chance to add to his tally. Nico O'Reilly squandered a glorious chance in the final minute, shooting straight at Dúbravka from a few yards out.
Burnley, to their credit, continued to plug away despite City's dominance, but it was the visitors who ran out worthy winners, to jump to the top of the table, and with it, condemn the Clarets to relegation. The performance was better than in recent weeks with much more resilience and the creation of a number of chances.
The Club has issued a statement which includes: “This season has presented challenges that have tested every part of the Club.” The responses to those challenges perceived by the Club have tested the patience of the fans who will remember a series of tone-deaf faux pas including: the purple shirts, the dull badge, the failure to have proper consultation on the restrictions on Ormerod Yard, the transfer of home/away seats in the Cricket Field Stand etc. This was no doubt reflected in the multitude of vacant seats in the stands. Perhaps the one saving grace has been the season ticket pricing for 2026/27 – albeit with digital tickets the norm. We should also note, the excellent gesture to present Trevor Meredith with a First Division Championship medal for his 1959/60 season.

Gibbs-White's second half hat-trick floors Clarets
Zian Flemming’s ninth Premier League goal of the season proved in vain, as Burnley let slip a one-goal lead again on the road, losing 4-1 to Nottingham Forest on Sunday afternoon.
Leading at the break courtesy of Flemming’s fine finish, the Clarets were left licking their wounds yet again on their travels, with Morgan Gibbs-White netting a sublime second half hat-trick, before Igor Jesus notched a late fourth, to clinch a comfortable victory for the hosts. Scott Parker’s side now sit 12 points adrift of safety, with five Premier League match-rounds remaining.
On a sunny Spring afternoon on the Trent, there was little to separate the two sides in the opening quarter of an hour.
Forest, buoyed by a Europa League victory over Portuguese giants Porto in midweek, enjoyed the lion’s share of territory and possession, but Burnley stood firm as the clock ticked beyond the 20-minute mark, with neither keeper called into action.
Soon after, the Clarets threatened briefly when James Ward-Prowse’s clever free-kick found Jaidon Anthony out wide, but – having skipped past Ola Aina – his cross came to nothing.
When a chance of any note did arrive, it was Ward-Prowse, arguably the most influential player on the pitch during the opening exchanges, who tested Matz Sels with a dipping free-kick from fully 30-yards out, that the Forest keeper did well to tip to safety.
Forest were forced into a change shortly before the break, when Murillo – in the act of denying Flemming, who had initially got goal-side of the defender – appeared to tweak his hamstring, and was replaced by Jair Cunha. The first half seemed destined to end goalless, but there was one last opportunity in the second of two added minutes – and the Clarets, and that man Flemming once again, made no mistake!
A fine break resulted in Anthony teeing up Quilindschy Hartman on the left-hand side of the penalty box, and his pullback was met by Flemming, whose low drive gave Sels no chance. It was a wonderfully worked team goal, with Flemming continuing his fine individual campaign with his tenth goal of the season in all competitions.
The home team came out the blocks quickly in the second half, but Gibbs-White fluffed his lines with a weak effort when unmarked in the box.
Despair soon turned to joy for the Forest faithful and their captain though, as the England midfielder levelled matters with a well-taken goal, slotting the ball home with aplomb past Martin Dúbravka after repeated failures to clear the ball from the area.
Burnley were almost back in front moments later, when Lyle Foster, on for Marcus Edwards in the immediate aftermath of the equaliser, saw his back-post effort tipped around the post by Sels.
The game had suddenly come alive, and with gaps now starting to appear, it was Forest who took full advantage. Unmarked again at the back post, Gibbs-White made no mistake, firing a volley beneath Dúbravka for his and Forest’s second after a cross from Hutchinson under no real pressure on the right.
Remarkably, the Forest skipper then scored his third goal of the half on 78 minutes, heading home from 12-yards out to all but end the contest. Once again a cross from the right found the Forest player on the centre spot and rose unchallenged by Ekdal to head the ball into the corner
The hosts put the gloss on a stunning second half display with a fourth in added time, as Jesus rounded off the scoring after a rapid break which left six Burnley players helpless on the halfway line.
A second half capitulation handed Forest their first Premier League win of the year. The Clarets have now lost 45 of their last 71 games over their past two seasons in the Premier League and look about to be instantly relegated for a third time following promotion. It seems a long time since we had six straight seasons in the Premier League and qualified for Europe.
