Burnley winger Dwight McNeil admits manager Sean Dyche will fine his players if they don't celebrate their birthday by bringing cakes to training for their teammates!

McNeil turned 22 this week, and the winger made sure to stay on the manager's good side by stopping-off at the local bakery on the way to training to stock up on some tasty treats.

The England Under-21 international revealed: "We have our sports scientists who are always on to us about our diet, and we get weighed every day and do body fat levels all the time so we're on top of that side of things.

"The only time that changes is when it's someone's birthday. If you don't bring cakes in for the rest of the lads when it's your birthday then you get fined.

"I brought in some different types of brownies this week from a bakery that's not too far away. It's good for players to have a treat when it's a special occasion, as long as the time is right."
