00:00Just making my way out of Loftus Road where Burnham just played their final away game of the season.
00:06It's been quite a memorable season and it's quite a memorable game today.
00:11Could have easily come into the game emotionally, physically drained from Monday to promotion,
00:17partying at Sheffield United, but was never the case.
00:21Put a QPR to the sword with a 5-0 victory.
00:25It could have been 5 at half-time, it was that dominant, that one-sided.
00:29Real classy stuff.
00:31But also, not only to play some superb football, it was the desire, that hunger that we saw from start to finish really.
00:40One moment in particular where the Burnham players sprint back in numbers after getting the ball away from a corner
00:47and there's 8 or 9 players behind the ball within 3-4 seconds.
00:51Really amazing stuff.
00:52It sums up this Burnham side, like I said, for the good football, superb football we played today.
00:58That was the moment that summed it up for me.
01:03But yeah, there's Ian Fleming with 2.
01:06Samienta off the bench with 2.
01:08Josh Cullen, he would open the scoring as well early on.
01:11All around superb display.
01:13So many positives.
01:15Aaron Ramsey back, first appearance in 14 months.
01:18Redmond on Colosho starting was really good on his first start.
01:23It's in the league anyway, so it's New Year's Day.
01:26So yeah, Burnham go back top for now.
01:29Leeds are super Monday.
01:30They can finish on 100 points next week with a win against Millwall.
01:33They can still win the league title.
01:35And they match that another record.
01:38The all-time record for clean sheets with 30 now.
01:41So yeah, perfect day after a perfect week, really.
01:44And hopefully they can finish it off with a positive.
01:48There's another victory against Millwall next week.
01:50talking with Millwall next week.
