Richard Eckersley
Eckersley joined Bradford City in November of last year and made his debut in a 1-0 home defeat against Macclesfield a week later. He went on to play 13 times for them in League Two with the last of them coming last Tuesday in what was another home defeat against Lincoln.

He's made one appearance for the Clarets this season, that coming in the Carling Cup win at Morecambe. His three appearances last season also came in the cup competitions although he was an unused substitute on the opening day of our Premier League season at Stoke.

He's under contract at Burnley until the end of the 2012/13 season and will now be trying to impress new manager Eddie Howe on his return.
