Don't write Burnley off warns Doyle

Kevin Doyle today warned Wolves must not rule out Burnley from winning their survival battle despite their welcome victory over the Clarets on Saturday.

Wolves' £6.5m record signing believes defeat at Turf Moor would have made it very difficult for Mick McCarthy's side to recover.

But he said the 2-1 victory had left everything to play for in the Premier League table.

"It doesn't rule Burnley out, not at all," said Doyle.

"But if we'd have been beaten it would have been tough.

"It would have made it difficult to raise ourselves again but we'd have done it.

"It's a lot sweeter that we won and now we've now got a big local derby to look forward to."

Meanwhile, winger Matt Jarvis insisted Adlene Guedioura will be attempting to claim Wolves' second goal was his after his wild shot was deflected in off the heels of Clarke Carlisle.

"He'll be claiming it, don't worry about that and I would do exactly the same if I was him," said the wide man, who was Wolves' man of the match at Burnley after scoring one and starting the move for their second goal.

"He's got a decent shot in him and he's not afraid to try his luck from anywhere.

"He can really hit them and he's had a few strikes that have come to nothing, so it was nice that one went in."

Jarvis also believes Wolves never know when they are beaten as they showed the character to hold off Burnley's late onslaught in a real pressure game.

"We've got used to the standard in the Premier League and we've all stuck together – it's a fantastic group of lads," he said.

"We're always trying to make sure we stay in the games and remain competitive in every game, and still in there fighting at half time, 60 minutes and even with 15 to 20 minutes left in every match to get something out of it.

"We work from that and try to nick something even at the end.

"It helps when you get an early goal as you can always build on that."
