[Football] Burnley's defensive record

[kevo]

They've only conceded 9 goals all season (34 games) and have gone 12 consecutive Championship games without conceding. Pretty remarkable.

Not sure how much this is do with having James Trafford in goal, it surely can't be to do with having Scott Parker as their manager?!

Trafford isn't having to make many saves , so perhaps it is down to super Scotty P .

An incredible coincidence (or maybe not) that this run of clean sheets started after a bet Trafford made with former NFL star and Burnley minority owner JJ Watt.

Trafford asked him what it would take for Watt to come out of retirement and play for the Cincinnati Bengals, who Trafford supports, and Watt's reply was "you don't allow a goal for the rest of the season and it's a deal".

J.J. Watt retired from the NFL in 2022, but a fun bet with Burnley FC goalkeeper James Trafford might change that.
