Burnley boss Brian Laws was delighted after their 2-1 win over West Ham United.
Danny Fox and David Nugent struck the goals for the Clarets.
Laws said: "It was a huge three points and when you talk about games you have to win this was one of them. There was so much pressure but the players were magnificent.
"David Nugent scored a fantastic goal and it set the tone of the game. It gave us great belief because we haven't been in this position for such a long time.
"We've got to make this an uncomfortable place for any team coming here and the fans play a huge part in that. To play under that kind of pressure proves the players can get results."
