Even gaffer Kompany got involved with a knee slide towards the away end.
After the game, the ecstatic Belgian said: “I don’t know if the lads realise it – I think Jay Rod(riguez) does, he realises what it means for the people of Burnley.
“To win the title at Ewood Park, you couldn’t write it.
“A day that will live forever for us and a tremendous achievement.”
On his side’s wild reactions, he added: “You have to celebrate, 44 games in, it’s a ridiculous season so the guys have to celebrate it.”
Kompany’s exceptional management of the Clarets this season has drawn interest from the likes of Tottenham and Chelsea.
But SunSport revealed last night that the 37-year-old has told his staff that he plans to stay at Turf Moor.
