I am a little surprised that no one has mentioned the impending move of Owen Coyle to Bolton ! ? I know that it has not been confirmed yet, but I am pretty sure that when he returns from Scotland, (that's if he has been there!!!) and spoke to BK, then he will be in place for their match against Arsenal on Wednesday. I must admit that I am a little sad that Managers move because of money. He came to us with a plan in mind, and he has not seen it through. In my book, that is not playing the game. We all know that he would have been on the move in the Summer, but not now. He has only done half the job. There is no gaurantee that he can even keep Bolton up! I think we could all understand the move if he had been offered the job with any of the top 6, but Bolton !! ?? BK needs to be a bit stronger by putting a 'price' tag on him in excess of £5 million, not the reported £4 million. I really feel sorry for the players, at a crucial time, they not only have to get used to a new manager, but a new system! right in the middle of the season. He could have stayed until the end of the season. I do hope that my 'rant' is all in vain, and that he decides to stay, but I don't think he will.... But, there is a light at the end of the tunnel, whoever takes over may start to get us winning away from home!!!!

Well it looks like he is definitely off, I don't think there will be any supporters who will be in any way happy to see him go. I'm sure that many are angry and disappointed. The timing has pretty much left us in the s**t and I can't see who the board will be able to get who will be able to keep us up.
Having said that, I will always be grateful to him for getting us to where we are, well ahead of schedule and getting the team to play some great football. So I wish him luck. Still can't say I understand it though, and pretty much makes the image he painted for himself as a man of integrity look pretty hollow now.
Still BFC has been around a lot longer than Owen Coyle and will be around a long time after he's gone.
Up The Clarets!

My worry is that Coyle might tempt quite a number of other Burnley personnel to move with him. The lure of more money is always a big temptation. I hope the actual team can stay together, at least until the end of the season.
