Burnley are based in their namesake town and were founded in 1882. Their pre-Premier League honours include 2 First Division titles and the FA Cup. The cup was won in 1913/14, between their earlier league honours. Detailed coverage in this archive runs from 1992/93 onwards.
A Fourth Division title came in 1991/92, before the later play-off success that preceded Premier League football. Turf Moor remained home throughout the club's seasons here. Their first Premier League campaign ended in 18th place and relegation.
Sean Dyche's stored tenure began before the next return, which also lasted only a season. Burnley finished 19th in that campaign. A Championship title then preceded a longer Premier League spell.
The Championship win was recorded in 2015/16, during Dyche's tenure. On returning, Burnley finished outside the relegation places instead of repeating the outcome of their earlier Premier League visits. That campaign's points total was also higher than either of those previous top-flight seasons, before the following year brought a further increase.
The new spell opened with a lower-half finish, before Burnley reached 7th the following season. That campaign returned 54 points, their highest total in the archive. A later top-half season matched that points return, even though the finish was lower.
The next campaigns ended nearer the bottom. Dyche left in April 2022, during the season that ended with another relegation.
Vincent Kompany's tenure included a Championship title before a Premier League campaign ending in 19th place. A 5–0 victory against Sheffield United at Turf Moor became Burnley's widest league victory here during that relegation season.
Scott Parker's later spell covered another return to the division, ending before the final league matches. The return season produced fewer points than the previous Premier League campaign, with the goal difference ending at the same negative figure. The latest completed campaign, 2025/26, again left Burnley in 19th place.
