Alexander toasts Clarets` spirit

Fri 15 May, 11:30 AM


Burnley midfielder Graham Alexander has hailed the team spirit fuelling his side's promotion push.

The Clarets face Sheffield United in the Coca-Cola Championship play-off final on May 25 after overcoming Reading 3-0 on aggregate.

Owen Coyle operates with one of the smallest squads in the division, but Alexander said: "We've got a tight-knit group of players who really pull for each other.

"I think we've used only 23 this season and we all push each other on.

"Whoever has come in, nobody has let us down."

  1. Preston made a big mistake letting Graham Alexander go­ and full marks to Burnley for realising this, it is­ possibly the difference between the clarets being at­ Wembley and the North End missing out. However as a­ Burnley fan i do wish it had been a all Lancs. final.
