By Burnley FC
July 2 2021

Part eight of our summer squad number feature Squad numbers were introduced for the first time in the 1999/2000 season and a generation of Clarets have since put their own special mark on a particular shirt.

 Repeating a series by contributor Wallace Chadwick which ran in the on-line Turf matchday magazine during the 2020/21 season, we will be highlighting who wore what and profiling some of those who made their mark at Turf Moor.

 This instalment features shirt number 18, previously worn by Phil Bardsley in his first spell at Turf Moor and latterly by Ashley Westwood since his arrival from Aston Villa in 2017.

1999-2003 Paul Weller

2003-04 Luke Chadwick

2005 Nathan Dyer (Oct-Dec)

2006 Phil Bardsley (Mar-May)

2006-07 Micah Hyde (to Jan ’07)

2007 Eric Djemba-Djemba (Jan to May)

2007-09 Alan Mahon

2010-12 Leon Cort (Jan ’10 to Jan ’12)

Although I did like Paul Weller, just shading it due to him playing in the very top league, my vote goes to Ashley Westwood. (Sm152)

The one that got away, Eric Djemba-Djemba, sheer class in an an era when 'class' was a bit thin on the ground in Burnley teams.

Achilles heel? (Sm14)

I honestly thought Westwood would be a very good acquisition & within our means whilst he was still at Villa.
He's proved to be a very invaluable player.
