Re: Coyle and Celtic
It's weird how many people hate the man who laid the foundations for our current success.

Re: Coyle and Celtic
Will Celtic confirm they offered him the job ? Perhaps it might be someday we'd like you to manage Celtic and horseface has spun it.

Re: Coyle and Celtic
No, he was definitely offered it that summer and he definitely wanted to accept it and his wife put her foot down. I do know that for certain.
Re: Coyle and Celtic
I'm pretty sure Dyche came in when those foundations were there. Did you miss our first season in the premier league?jtv wrote:Yes weird how many posters hate Dyche
Re: Coyle and Celtic
Dyche came in 3 seasons later when those foundations had been well and truly rocked. How many players from the Coyle era did Dyche find at Burnley?aggi wrote:I'm pretty sure Dyche came in when those foundations were there. Did you miss our first season in the premier league?
With your reasoning Stan Ternent and Steve Cotterill laid the foundations for Coyle.

I love the fact posters still don’t understand youDevils_Advocate wrote:Fair play to him. Must have been a hard decision to turn down your boyhood club especially when its a club as big as Celtic. Shows how much Burnley meant to him and its a real shame the board didnt match his ambition and pretty much pushed him out the door to Bolton

The board were rabbits in the headlights from May 2009 to well into Eddie Howes time here.

Re: Coyle and Celtic
You just need to look at the quality and price of the players when Dyche came in as opposed to when Coyle came in. Without the premier league money there's no way we could have sustained the wages that we did or the quality of player. We wouldn't have been able to spend a million quid on a relatively untested 21 year old striker for instance.jtv wrote:Dyche came in 3 seasons later when those foundations had been well and truly rocked.

You just need to look at the accounts for proof. Coyle's first season we had wages of under £10m, Dyche's first season they were 50% higher. It takes nothing away from Dyche but without that promotion from Coyle there's a very good chance we would have been relegated shortly after.
