Burn told ChronicleLive: "I actually broke my hand, I don't even know how I did it, I think I went to grab someone and then I felt a crack.

"It was early in the second half so I went for the scan and I have seen a specialist.

"I've been told I can play with it. I am ready for Latvia, I am ready for Newcastle and I'd have been ready to play tonight."

He added, laughing: "I will not be missing any time for a broken hand! This is nothing, I have had worse injuries than this. I am ready to go and ready to play."
