Clarets keeper blasts negative fans
The Clarets have just seven games remaining to save their Premier League status, starting with Sunday's eagerly-anticipated derby clash with Blackburn.[LNB]Passions and security are high as the clubs meet in the top flight at Turf Moor for the first time since the 1965-66 season.[LNB]That should make for a fevered atmosphere and Jensen wants it to stay that way until the end of the campaign.[LNB]Some fans have voiced their disgruntlement with the club's situation under new manager Brian Laws in recent weeks and the Danish keeper believes there is no time for that.[LNB]The 34-year-old said: "Those boo boys, you hear them once in a while, (should) stay away.[LNB]"Even though they don't like what they see, have they actually realised we are in the Premier League and what we have achieved so far?[LNB]"I know they are passionate and they want to stay, but we want to stay as much as they do. We can use them for nothing whatsoever.[LNB]"If you are coming here to cause trouble for whatever reason, stay at home.[LNB]"For everybody else who is standing behind us, we need them all the way through to the end of the season."[LNB]Laws has spoken of how victory in such a big game - which would be Burnley's first over Blackburn since 1979 - could spur his team on in their survival fight.[LNB]Conversely, fans might fear the negative impact of a defeat but Jensen points out there are still more games to come afterwards, three of them at home.[LNB]The former West Brom player added: "Everybody is building it up but I am trying to keep it down on the ground and just be realistic.[LNB]"Yes, it is a big game, don't get me wrong. It is not a lack of passion but I am trying to keep it down.[LNB]"It is a big local derby but, at the end of the day, we need those three points and we need to treat it like any other game.[LNB]"It doesn't matter who we are playing against, three points are three points.[LNB]"There is a long way to go. Everyone has written us off but we know there are 21 points to play for and we are going to do our best to get as many as possible.[LNB]"We want to stay in this league regardless of what people are saying. That has been the same all the way through.[LNB]"It is our passion and we want to do our best to get all the points we need to stay up."[LNB]Burnley go into the game on the back of an injury-time loss at Wigan last week.[LNB]Hanging on for a draw would not have been enough to lift them out of the relegation zone, but the manner of the defeat, in the third minute of time added on, was potentially deflating.[LNB]But Jensen added: "It hasn't made any difference. We lost a game but if you look at the positive stuff, we still looked solid and we are creating chances.[LNB]"Now we just need Lady Luck to be behind us, that is what I think we have been lacking a little bit."[LNB][LNB]
