Burnley gaffe almost saw Clarets kicked out of FA Cup before late intervention


Sean Dyche fielded a relatively strong line-up for the encounter - and included left-back Erik Pieters in his starting 11.

"Driscoll-Glennon went onto the team sheet after our reporter, Natalie Quirk, made the enquiry of Burnley." (Image: Getty Images)Had Pieters gone ahead and played it is almost certain Burnley would have been kicked out of the competition in hugely embarrassing circumstances. We did notice it, Bournemouth noticed it and we managed to sort it before kick-off.
