Owen Coyle Swaps Horrible Jobs
Sky Sports News is reporting that Owen Coyle has swapped his horrible job managing Burnley for the horrible job of managing Bolton Wanderers.
"Sometimes when you've been in a horrible job for a long time, you need a new challenge," Coyle said. "In this case, a horrible opportunity has come up with Bolton, a club I love and played for, so I'd be mad to turn it down."
Coyle's decision has devastated Burnley fans.
"He's Judas as far as I'm concerned," said Burnley season ticket holder Giles Murray. "We gave him a horrible opportunity, and he's turned his back on it with the job only half-done."
The mood was far brighter in Bolton, where fans welcome the appointment of a former player. "It's just what the club needs," said Bolton Wanderers Supporters' Club chairman John Reeves. "It's win-win for both the club and Owen, though for Owen it's a bit horrible, to be honest."
