Links
Our pick of the best third-party sites around
Introduction
What's included...
Over the years, we've accumulated a large collection of links to other websites. Some of these are referenced within individual pages on our site, but this page attempts to provide a list of significant URLs, along with brief comments on each one.
We've divided the list into categories to help you find what you're looking for. Inevitably there will be some overlap - and probably many omissions - but some structure is better than none!
Please either select a category from the table below, or feel free to just browse down the page. Click on a link name to open the relevant site in a new browser window.
| Category | Includes |
| Burnley-specific | Sites dedicated to BFC, including supporters' clubs. |
| General football | Football news / stats / directory sites, most with BFC-related information. |
| Governing bodies | Rulers and their rules - from FIFA downwards. |
| Fans | General fans' organisations, guides, football-related campaigns, etc. |
| Other | Anything else - but all related in some way to either football or Burnley. |
...and what isn't
We could go on adding links for ever, but to save this page becoming a yard long we've had to be selective. So in general (with a few exceptions), we haven't included the following:
Links to other clubs' sites, whether official or otherwise.
Links to national newspaper sites, though many of these will of course have football coverage.
Links to online shops or other commercial concerns.
All the above should be easy to find via your favourite search engine, or take a look at Fanbase.
Lastly, links relating to beer, breweries, pubs, etc, are in our Pub guide.

Linking to our website
Please feel free! All we ask is that you open our site in a new browser window (i.e. not framed within your website). You can either link to our homepage (http://surf.to/londonclarets), or to any page within our site. However, if you do 'deep link' to us, please bear in
mind that we occasionally rename pages, so you will need to check periodically that the link is still valid.
Broken link?
Did you find a broken link, either on this page or somewhere else within our site? If so, please accept our apologies. We do check the links periodically, but occasionally we miss one.
We'd be grateful if you could report the broken link to us. To do this, please click here. A new, pre-filled email message will open. Simply add the URL in question, and hit Send. Thanks!
