Burnley Football Club is saddened to hear of the loss of Kevin Randall – a member of the Clarets’ scouting staff and a guiding light for Burnley manager Sean Dyche.
Randall, who has died at the age of 73, was assistant manager to John Duncan during Dyche’s time as a player at Chesterfield, which included their run to the semi-finals of the FA Cup in 1997.
That was a second spell as number-two at Chesterfield for club stalwart Randall, who also managed the Spireites for a short time in the 1980s and previously enjoyed a successful playing career at Saltergate, scoring 96 goals in 258 league appearances.
