Clarets players on ‘incredible moment’ they sealed promotion
Michael Kightly said: “I think it’s a bigger achievement, to be tipped fourth favourites to go down, and then win promotion - with Wolves we were expected to be promoted, and I obviously enjoyed that moment thoroughly, but I’ve really enjoyed this one.”
Tom Heaton: “It’s incredible, I couldn’t be happier, it’s just a fantastic day, it’s difficult to put into words, my best day in football by a country mile.”
