Twenty years ago today, the Clarets stepped up their climb back towards the elite by winning promotion from the third tier of English football.
It took a last-day win at Scunthorpe United to propel Burnley back to the First Division (Championship) for only the second time in 17 years.
Under Stan Ternent, the Clarets won seven out of their last eight matches and also needed a helping hand from Wrexham, whose defeat of Gillingham at the same time as Burnley were beating Scunthorpe 2-1, confirmed automatic promotion behind champions Preston North End.
