Sean Dyche was due to hold a press conference at Pittodrie on Wednesday evening
BURNLEY’S arrival in Aberdeen ahead of their Europa League clash with the Dons has been delayed due to ‘technical difficulties’ with the flight.
The Clarets were set to fly out of Manchester on Wednesday afternoon and were due to visit Pittodrie in the evening, with boss Sean Dyche and captain Tom Heaton scheduled to hold a press conference at 5.45pm.
But those plans have now been shelved due to the delay with the flight, which is reported to be up to five hours.
A club spokesman said: “The team have encountered technical difficulties with their flight north and due to the delay will not be visiting the stadium this evening.”
The Europa League second qualifying round first leg tie kicks-off at 7.45pm on Thursday.
