Burnley fullback Phil Bardsley was delighted with victory over Newcastle United.

Bardsley admits it was a real physical battle on Saturday - particularly against Andy Carroll.

He said: "Big Andy did me in the first few minutes — I've still got whiplash from that one. We get bumps and bruises but get back up and win football matches.

"I didn't need that first whack to know what it was going to be like. I've played against big Andy for years and I knew from waking up Monday morning it was going to be like that."
