Leeds as good as safe? Thumping Burnley win opens nine-point gap to drop

Leeds pulled nine points clear of the relegation zone after beating lifeless Burnley 3-1 at Elland Road to take a huge step towards Premier League safety.Burnley, already relegated and managerless after Scott Parker left earlier this week, only have three games remaining of their miserable campaign to negotiate, and can still be caught by bottom club Wolves - just three points behind.
