Tommy Burden (1948-1954)

Born 1924 Tommy was brought to LUFC in 1948 by Major Buckley. A true club stalwart Tommy played 259 games scoring 13 goals. As Captain, he led by example and was one of the motivators behind the 1949-50 Cup run. After clashing with Raich Carter over his unnecessary berating of Keeper Jack Scott, Tommy left for his beloved West Country in 1955 and took Bristol City to the Third Division South Championship.
