Merry Christmas to all our members and users of the Clarets Trust website.

The Clarets Trust Board hope you all have a great festive season.

We will be back in the New Year with a message from our Chairman, Peter Pike. We will also bring you news of our great new membership offer celebrating our fifth anniversary and give you an update on our new website relaunch.

Let's hope for some good news on the Clarets front too over the festive season, not traditionally known for being kind to Burnley FC. Two wins from our two remaining games of 2009 at home to Bolton on Boxing Day and Everton at Goodison Park two days later would certainly be very welcome. Six points would set us up nicely for the second half of the season in the New Year when we can hopefully survive in the Premier League at our first attempt.

Up the Clarets!
