Stoke City 2 – 0 Burnley – 15th August – Set piece lesson for Owen Coyle
.
Burnley started off their first season in England's top flight for 33 years with a defeat away to a Stoke side who showed why they avoided relegation last time around.
Two first half set pieces proved to be Burnley's downfall; the highly rated Ryan Shawcross opened the scoring with an unchallenged header then Rory Delap continued his throw-in antics with a perfectly weighted ball that Stephen Jordan glanced into the back of the net.
