Chief executive rules out Coyle return to Burnley
6:18pm Friday 12th October 2012 in Football
BURNLEY chief executive Lee Hoos has tonight ruled out a return to Turf Moor for Owen Coyle.
The Clarets have a managerial vacancy as Eddie Howe completes his move to Bournemouth and Coyle is available after being sacked by Bolton earlier this week.
Coyle guided Burnley into the Premier League in 2009 but angered fans when he left for Bolton months later.
Asked if a return for Coyle could be a possibility, Hoos said: “I just couldn’t see how that one could happen.
“Obviously I wasn’t there when the whole Owen Coyle saga happened but I got enough feedback to know that there was a very bitter aftertaste and I just couldn’t see a way back for that one.
“Being free and available is not necessarily the hallmark of what going for, it has to be the right person – the right man for right job at the right time.”

Ten miles away Burnley's manager jumps ship for a club from a lower division. Almost unprecedented.
Alexander to Burnley and Dunn to Blackburn would re-ignite passions immediately although in one instance the spectre of unpredictable owners cannot be diminished.
Two historic clubs whose long-suffering fans deserve better than their current lot.

It turns out though, that none of these things did it. In fact she expressed her sorrow that such an under privelidged species could be allowed to exist in britain today and has called on DEFRA to investigate. No, It was the smell. Like nothing she'd ever experienced before. A sort of cross between desease and un-washed.
It was simply a case of "Burnley I can live in, but I could never live next door to that! I'm off eddie, you coming or what?"

OK maybe not, but it would have been interesting if he was suddenly offered 30 grand a week rather than five bob a month at Bournemouth.
Homesick, personal reasons my derriere, the old ones are the best. We do have cars up North love and Cheshire, the WAGs paradise, is only a hour away. FFS I live further away from work.
"Bournemouth were the only club I would have left for".
I mean, FFS,how many times have you heard those words in the same sentence before?
