Clarets Clock On For Wolves' Showdown

Posted on: Thu 11 Mar 2010

The Clarets' squad was back at work at Turf Moor this morning as they look to carry the momentum of their fightback against Stoke into Saturday's crucial game with Wolves.

David Nugent's equaliser capped an impressive second-half showing which earned Burnley a vital point from their 1-1 draw with the Potters on Wednesday night.

And only hours later the players were back on duty for light exercise or training to prepare for the visit of Wolves to Turf Moor.

"They put a heavy shift in last night but they are in training today," reported manager Brian Laws.

"We have to make sure we get the players recovered.

"Certain players will get rested and others will need to do a little bit of training just to make sure we are ready for Saturday's game.

"That's how quickly we move on and get ready for the next game."

Burnley will go above Wolves and out of the relegation zone if they beat Mick McCarthy's men.

The boss wants more of the same against Wolves

And Laws wants the feel-good factor from the mid-week comeback to roll into Saturday's pivotal encounter.

He added: "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."
