Roger Eli is a former professional footballer who played for Leeds United, Wolverhampton Wanderers, Cambridge United, Crewe Alexandra, York City, Bury F.C., Burnley F.C. and Scunthorpe United

Eli is best known for his time at Burnley where he was a key player for the Clarets in the Fourth Division Championship winning side of the 1991–1992 season

Career

Roger Eli was born in Bradford in 1965 and began his football career at Leeds United in 1983 Eli made two appearances for the Whites before moving to Wolverhampton Wanderers in 1986. Various moves followed before Eli finally settled at Burnley in 1989.

Burnley and cult status
Eli was tried in various positions but eventually established himself as a striker. During the 1990 to 1991 season Eli made only 15 starts but scored 10 goals as Burnley reached the Fourth Division Play-offs but missed out on promotion. However, it was during the following season that Eli really established himself and became a cult hero at Turf Moor. During the 1991 to 1992 season Eli scored 17 goals, in league and cup competitions, and became a vital part of the Burnley team which won the fourth division title. After seven years in the lowest professional division in English football Burnley gained promotion.
Eli was known for his commitment and high work rate and the chant of 'Eli-Eli-Eli-Eli' was a regular one at Turf Moor as he turned in some top performances. Possibly Eli's best goal was against Derby County in the FA Cup during the 1991 to 1992 season where he scored a diving header against Peter Shilton the former England goal keeper to earn the Clarets a draw and replay.

Retirement
Eli's later career was beset by injuries and he did not make many further starts for Burnley after they gained promotion. He was eventually released in 1994 and moved to Scunthorpe where he made two appearances but injury forced his retirement from the game.
Roger Eli is now a successful business man and owns an office supply company and has wrote a book "Thanks for the memories and the vintage Clarets"

Promoted from the Champ - Watford and Wigan autos, Reading via playoffs
Relegated from the Champ - Ip5w1ch, Blackpool (Ince is an awful awful manager) and Sheff Weds. Think Yeovil will survive.

Rooney will stay at Utd, Suarez will go to Madrid or stay at Pool, would be foolish to sell to Arsenal

Roger who is the best manager Burnley have had in your lifetime?

I'm struggling to pick my top 3 from the Champ, think it could be very close top 10-12 teams!

Also Grant Holt is 16-1 to be top scorer in the Champ - get all over dat

Suarez to playing at Liverpool

Rooney to be playing at Chelsea
