THE East Lancashire derby remains all square at half time after two fine saves from Paul Robinson.
Burnley were on the front foot for most of the half with Chris McCann slicing an effort wide and Jason Shackell lashing over after Robinson had palmed out Ross Wallace’s cross-shot.
Danny Murphy put a shot wide at the other end but Robinson then saved a long-range effort from Wallace before making an impressive stop to keep out Charlie Austin’s goalbound header.
And he made another particularly important stop to deny Martin Paterson’s curling effort just before half time.
