A Burnley-mad pub – just a stone’s throw from Turf Moor – has created its own football stand in the beer garden.
It even has old seats from the Championship club’s stadium.
The Royal Dyche boozer is named after former Clarets boss Sean Dyche.

There are three rows of over 30 seats on a slope in the back garden for drinkers to sit on.
There is also the old badge that was in front of the home dugout at Premier League-chasing Burnley’s ground in the beer garden.
It is called the Little Longside in reference to the old Longside terrace at the 22,000-capacity ground.
A pub spokesman said: “Our Little Longside project is almost complete.
“Made up of the official seating from the Cricket Field Stand and the old badge that was in front of the home dugout.

“A few more bits to add in and then we will officially declare it as open and complete, with a red ribbon cutting.”
The pub changed its name from the Princess Royal in 2018 after Dyche kept the Clarets in the Premier League and steered them to Europa League qualification.
Dyche popped in for a pint in 2022 after he was sacked after 10 years as Burnley manager, as reported on What’s The Jam.

Some fans even dubbed him the Ginger Mourinho.
The pub threatened to fine punters if they dared to ask for the name to be changed after Dyche’s departure.
It warned customers they would have to cough up a donation for a local hospice if they asked for the pub to be renamed.
Fan Keith Hughes said: “I hope you can get someone from BFC to cut the ribbon.”
Les Roberts added: ”That’s fantastic.”
Samantha Smith said: “Looks brilliant.”
The Clarets sit top of the Championship after beating Coventry 1-2 on Saturday (5 Apr).
