SOUNDBITE: (English) Sean Dyche, Burnley Manager:

'Im not sure it really works like that in football, you cant take anyone lightly i think there is a time last year when we were a different category, we were at the top of the league in the top two, looking at the other teams who were having a tough time, but when you are a team like ourselves you cant take anything for granted, you cant take the fact that somebody is having a bad run to expect to win, we have to make sure that we are right every minute every day and that was proved against Palace two mistakes in the second half and it cost us the game, our performance wasn't brilliant but it wasn't far off, that's how tough this division is, we just worry about ourselves, not about the form of the opposition.'

SOUNDBITE: (English) Sean Dyche, Burnley Manager:

'I don't think that they are distractions, the ones that are distractions are good competitions, but there is a reality to our season and that is the Premier League as we are newcomers to it, that has to be the focus of course, and that is the focus, so we look forward to it we have done all the way through it so far, there is an excitement to the team and the town and the fans and the team what we are hoping to achieve, and what we are looking to achieve and how we are going about it so there is a challenge about it and what we hope to do at Turf Moor for the fans so we hope to do that as well.'
