Dyche marks 5-years with Burnley victory over Newcastle

Published on: 30 October 2017

Burnley earned a 1-0 win over Newcastle United at Turf Moor on Monday night.

The win marked Burnley boss Sean Dyche's fifth year in charge of the club.

Jeff Hendrick's 74th-minute winner settled a dull contest at Turf Moor as the Clarets leapfrogged Rafael Benitez's Magpies in the Premier League table.

Newcastle were in the Europa League when Dyche was appointed Eddie Howe's successor in October 2012, but it is Burnley who now sit just beneath the European positions, albeit with just 10 games of the season completed.

The Clarets were in the bottom half of the Championship when Dyche arrived, and two promotions have been followed by last year's campaign of consolidation in the Premier League.
