Burnley Bluster

A round up of the 'talk' coming out of Turf Moor in the run up the the Premier league game against the mighty Wolves Manager Brian Laws said "I think everybody is visibly boosted by the fact that we gained a point. The second-half performance was excellent. It was what we were asking for and the response was magnificent. The supporters had warmth in their bellies going home due to the fact that they have seen enough evidence there that we are going to give everything to remain in the Premier League. "I think everybody is lifted by that. But there's no point in doing it on the Wednesday and not repeating it on the Saturday, so that's the key message to everybody: more of the same please." Burnley captain Graham Alexander said on the Burnley official site "You need three points in every game. Playing against Wolves who are down there with us makes it a massive game for both teams.But we are confident we can beat anyone at Turf Moor and we will go into the game positive from our second-half showing against Stoke.If we can go play like for that for the whole 90 minutes on Saturday, hopefully we can get the three points. "It's not make-or-break yet, there are eight games left after Saturday, so there are a lot of points to play for. It's not a defining game, whatever the result, but we know it's an important one.Being at home it's one we can hopefully win, but Wolves aren't going to come here and turn themselves over, they will be looking for the points as much as us. We know what we are going to have to face and hopefully we will have enough to get the three points." Striker David Nugent said "It's a tough game against Wolves but if we win we go above them, so it would be nice to do that and get out of the relegation zone. I've only started 12 games for Burnley and I've got six, so it's one in two games for me now, so I want to keep on going and score as many as I can and try to keep Burnley in the Premier League."
