BURNLEY achieved the seemingly impossible in 2009, promotion to the Premier League. Fast forward two years, and the club find themselves back in the Championship, amongst the backdrop of diminishing parachute payments, and the incoming UEFA financial fair play rules (FFP).Turf Moor Monthly captures the trials and tribulations of a calendar month at Turf Moor, covering every game of manager Eddie Howe`s tenure down Harry Potts Way.About the AuthorPhil Smith has previous scouting experience in the Football League, and has written for several newspapers, including the Burnley Express.He is currently working on a full season review as well as an alternative EURO 2012 travelogue, both of which are to be released in the summer.Turf Moor Monthly - March 2012Six games, one win and a haul of just six points, only Barnsley managed a lesser total than Eddie Howe`s side in March.A first FA Youth Cup semi-final appearance since 1978 saw Terry Pashley`s team steal the show, before Charlie Austin nipped off the bench in Hampshire to bag his first professional hat-trick.Who are the real Burnley Football Club? The heart would love us to be the one who swept aside Portsmouth, Nottingham Forest and Ipswich Town. In reality, sixteen defeats and a previous winless run of seven offers a more realistic reflection on our current standing.
