The last Burnley players to experience the competition now known as the Europa League will tell you it was not exactly a magic carpet ride.
The club's final successful tie in such territory concluded with home fans in Napoli's Stadio San Paolo setting fire to cardboard cushions and throwing them like saucers at the British players, and manager Harry Potts sprinting across the pitch yelling 'run for your lives, boys' at the end.
Under heavy police escort back to Capodichino Airport, the players were advised to put their coats over their heads and the British reporters present were briefly taken into protective custody.
