Win a relief for Cotterill

Burnley manager Steve Cotterill was delighted to see his side finally get a win after a run of 18 league games without a victory, with a 4-0 trashing of Plymouth Argyle.
The Clarets had slumped deep into relegation trouble on the back of their dreadful run of form, but seeing off the Pilgrims lifted them six points clear of the bottom three.
Cotterill said afterwards: "With the run we've been on, it couldn't have gone any better. I'm delighted with the performance, effort and application of the players.
"The time that's gone on has been the toughest I've had to face in my managerial career, but I wouldn't say we're out of it.
"The players were angry because they got a little bit of stick at the weekend. I suppose the key now is to stay angry."
