How many clubs from Burton have played in the Football League?

Views from the Match Thread ahead of kick-off:

syimp: “I would be disappointed if we don’t win this one. As an Imps supporter, even now there’s always that niggling worry that we won’t perform to expectations.

I might have a little flutter on a handsome goal-difference-boosting performance and to hell with superstition.”

Luke Imp: “Looking at Burton’s squad, they look like they’ve still got some half-decent players in there – O’Hara, Bostwick, Brayford, O’Toole, Eardley, Quinn, Atkins etc.

They don’t have too bad a options.”

Scotimp: “The absence of Sam Hughes is interesting.

With him in the side this season, Burton have conceded 20 goals in 14 games.

Without him, they have conceded 29 goals in 11 games.

Not all down to him of course, but possibly significant.”
