Carlisle rescues point following Edgar's exit

Burnley looked to be heading for defeat at Ipswich when David Norris scored with four minutes remaining after Clarets defender David Edgar had been sent off.

But Clarke Carlisle's stoppage-time goal gave the 10 men a point.

Burnley manager Brian Laws hailed the never-say-die attitude of his players.

He said: "I was probably the happier of the managers because with 10 men it was always going to be tough.

"To concede in that last period was tough on the players because I thought we were in control for large portions of the game. Having said that, neither goalkeeper really had a lot to do."

Edgar had been booked in the first period and saw red with 11 minutes left for a trip.
