Season Review Part V - Mission Accomplished

 With a daunting run-in over the final four games hovering on the horizon, it was arguably a case of now or never for Sean Dyche’s men.

 And, not the first time, they responded in just the right way, re-grouping during the impasse to come flying back out of the blocks and launch a run that secured 10 points from four games and their top-flight safety.

 Wolves – trying to inherit seventh spot from the Clarets and earn a route into Europe – were first up at Turf Moor.

 By a quirk of fate, the opponents for Dyche’s 300th game as Burnley manager were the same as the first back in November, 2012.
