Kilby: We'll reward Clarets fans

22 May 2009 17:02
Kilby promised the club's 7,000 season ticket holders last summer that they would receive a refund if the Clarets went up. Burnley, who face Sheffield United in the Championship play-off final at Wembley on Monday, are 90 minutes away from returning to the top tier after a 33-year absence. Kilby said: "If we go up we will refund people who bought tickets last season. It will be about £2million and in terms of Premier League money it's not that big. "I would certainly trade it for going up. Our Premier League rivals around here were cutting prices and I thought that was pretty easy for them to do when less than 20% of income comes from people coming to watch. "I thought we could do it if we got into the Premier League. All of these people have stood with us through thick and thin. It would be just a case of them sharing our success."
