BURNLEY manager Adrian Heath has told Kurt Nogan: "Go out and score 30 goals before the end of the season."

The Clarets striker leads the Turf Moor goal-scoring charts with 11 league and cup goals before today's Division Two head to head at Plymouth Argyle.

Heath observed: "It is certainly within Kurt Nogan's scope to score 30 goals in a season. I've no doubt about that.

"Kurt is already in double figures and I've every confidence that he can score 25. But he should be targeting 30.

"Strikers who reach that sort of total are few and far between but Kurt has that special instinct in front of goal. He can deliver.

"That is why I will continue driving him on because he has got the ability to succeed.

"We have a goal-scoring partnership (Nogan and Barnes) at the club which should deliver over 50 goals between them. If that happens then we will not be far away from promotion.

"We've also seen goals from other areas of the team with Nigel Gleghorn (4) and David Eyres chipping in.(5)."

Meanwhile, Spaniard Jesus Seba could remain with the Clarets until the end of the year.

Seba agreed a non-contract deal with the Clarets a fortnight ago and impressed with an enterprising performance in the midweek reserve team fixture against Grimsby. Assistant manager John Ward confirmed: "The situation with Jesus is on-going. He has done well during his trial."

Central defender Mark Winstanley is making progress after the shin injury which has forced the number five out of action for nearly a month.

Winstanley was injured in the 1-1 draw at Preston on October 29 and has not played since.

Heath added:"Mark is making progress but it is very much a day to day thing. The shin became infected and that has slowed up his recovery.

"It's a case of waiting for the infection to clear up. Then Mark might be able to play a junior game next weekend."

Burnley have carried off the "King Pie" award - for the second season on the bounce.

Football magazine, Total Football, voted the Turf Moor pie as the tastiest football fayre in England, Scotland and Wales !

The football judges drooled: "The Burnley effort is a tremendous pie ! Lightly spiced potatoes blend with the lean chunks of gravy in a rich gravy.

" The pastry is perfect - a slightly soggy, yet succulent casing absorbs the juice, but the crust is firm and light."

Lancashire neighbours Bury picked up the runners-up award.
