The Clarets are in Scotland for part of their pre-season preparations and we'll keep you posted on their progress in our daily diary.

8:30am – The players and staff met for breakfast ahead of another busy day, in the fourth day of the Scotland trip.

10:30am – Training was next up for the group, on the warmest day in Stirling yet, with temperatures reaching around 23 degrees in the morning session, with the players being mentally tested with some 1000m sprints, it was tiring just watching them!

12:30pm – A lunch break back at the hotel, to refuel and re-hydrate, ahead of an afternoon in the gym.

2:30pm – The squad was once again split in to two groups, with one group heading for their gym session and the other group being COVID tested in the hotel, before swapping round.

4:30pm – To finish a busy afternoon off, ice baths were then provided to help with the lads’ recovery, which in 25 degrees, went down a treat!

7:00pm – A meal out in Stirling was next on the schedule, with all staff and players heading to the ‘Kilted Kangaroo’ for dinner, burgers, ribs, pizzas & pasta all on the menu, a nice change for the players and a change of scenery.

9:00pm – Back at the hotel for an hour’s free time, before the group headed to their room, with all eyes on Friday’s training, ahead of the trip to Ayr United.
