BRIAN Laws was delighted to get his Burnley troops together for the start of pre-season training at Gawthorpe yesterday.

“We couldn’t wait for this day," he said.

"Once the fixtures are out everyone’s eager and desperate to get back in to full training.”

“It’s nice to see everybody fresh and replenished and looking forward to the next six weeks.

“We know it’s going to be tough, but we build it up to hit the ground running.”
