Jon Harley believes Burnley are determined to put all the transfer rumblings behind them as they go in search of their first league win of 2006 and a first victory in six games.

The former Chelsea and Fulham defender insisted: "We're still not a million miles off the play-offs and we know we're more than capable of doing it, so that's our aim.

"We know it's going to be tough because of the (unbeaten) run Preston are on and because it's a local derby there is a lot more riding on it.

"It's going to be a big game and we're all more than up for it."
