BURNLEY ended nearly 40 years of hurt for former player Bobby Seith when they presented him with his championship-winning medal during the half-time interval at Turf Moor on Saturday.
Seith never received the medal he was due after playing 27 games to help the Clarets win the First Division title in 1959/60.
But after the club were notified about his plight by the PFA during the summer, they contacted the Football League who had one specially commissioned.
Burnley chairman Barry Kilby made the presentation at half-time during the win over Bristol City.
And in an emotional moment, the Turf Moor faithful showed their appreciation with a standing ovation.
Seith, who now lives in Dundee, made a total of 238 appearances for Burnley between 1953 and 1960.
