Sean Dyche can sense the excitement of the fans as he prepares to lead Burnley back into Europe this evening.
The Clarets take on Aberdeen at a sold-out Pittodrie tonight in the first leg of their second qualifying round tie in the Europa League.
Around 2,000 Burnley fans have made the 340-mile trip to the North-East of Scotland for the first competitive meeting between the two clubs – and a first competitive match Burnley have ever played in July.
And Dyche can understand the passion the tie has generated for the Clarets’ fans, who have been waiting for this moment since Burnley’s secured qualification by finishing seventh in the Premier League last season – and in some cases a lot longer.
