Burnett, Dennis Went to same school as Dennis, so being a Millwall fan I was pleased to see him down at the DEN.

Burnett, Dennis Played against Dennis on a few occasions when he played up front for Midfield Secondly School and I played at the back for Chislehurst Secondly School (Edgebury) always enjoyed the challenge. And have seen him at Millwall when he does a walk round with past players but have not had opportunity to meet him as yet, hope you are keeping well Dennis.

Burnett, Dennis In 1967 Dennis Burnett moved to Millwall from West Ham United for £15,000, where he made over 250 appearances, taking over the captaincy when ever Harry Cripps was injured, A renowned hard-tackling defender, he became synonymous in the 1971 team which failed to gain promotion by a point to Birmingham City. Manager Benny Fenton had galvanized a promotion winning team of Bryan King; Brian Brown, Alan Dorney, Dennis Burnett, Barry Kitchener, Harry Cripps; Doug Allder, Eamon Dunphy, Gordon Bolland; Keith Weller, Derek Possee. Many onlookers say if Millwall had have been promoted that year, it would have changed the history of the club.

Burnett, Dennis Same School as Dennis, although a couple of years younger. He played a few times in our Sunday Side Hoblingwell! I followed him to West Ham but didn’t enjoy his success! I followed his career with interest and delight at his progress! Happy Days!
