Dan Burn on Newcastle's 'magic number and says crowd noise reminds him of Champions League nights

Dan Burn says Newcastle United players are refusing to accept that their work is done for the season - despite hitting the 40-point mark with FIVE games to spare.

United are safe all but in name but can still achieve a top 10 finish and also better last season's points tally of 45 with 15 big points left to play for. Burn reflected on what he feels is a brilliant achievement from the squad since arriving in January from Brighton & Hove Albion.

Burn said: "Well 40 is the magic number but until it's done we will just keep going. We don't want to stop here we want to go as high as we can. I think it's some achievement from where we were when the ownership came in to where we are now."
