Livingston Women’s ace Erin Burns hopes her double in last weekend’s victory over Ayr United is a sign of things to come now she's back to full fitness.Erin, a summer signing from Edinburgh City, suffered an ankle injury earlier in the campaign that ruled her out for five weeks but has hit the ground running on her return.A long-distance brace ensured the points headed back to West Lothian as she helped secure a 4-1 win and keep the Lionesses top of the SWF Championship table.Speaking to the West Lothian Courier, she said: "I’m delighted with my performance but also the team’s as well because I think we played brilliantly and deserved the win.“It was a tough few weeks when I was out being injured, especially as a new signing because you want to get off to a good start.
Hopefully now that I’ve got 90 minutes and a couple of goals under my belt I can keep contributing.“The girls all kept me going and it was great to see them playing well and winning games but I’m happy to be back playing and I want to contribute."While things are going well on the park, she knows she's at a club who do things right off the park, too.
That's been highlighted by the recent arrival of a club chaplain while they also announced last week that they will no longer be wearing white shorts to reduce anxieties when players have their period.She commented: "It’s a club that really goes that extra mile, more than any other club I've been at to be honest.
It’s a great place to be."To have such a good network of people who put a lot of time and effort into the mental well-being side of things is something that I know is really appreciated by everyone.
