Macca: Coyle doesn't need SPL
FORMER Celtic star Frank McAvennie can fully appreciate why Owen Coyle would snub the SPL club to stay at Burnley.
"Everyone gets so one-sided up here and so blinkered," said McAvennnie . "It's a big world out there and the Premier League's the best league in the world.
"Owen's now got into the Premier League. Why would he want to come up here?"
West Brom's Tony Mowbray is now the overwhelming favourite to be named Hoops boss, with reports claiming compensation is now the only stumbling block to his appointment.
Celtic have so far refused to confirm whether Mowbray is their number one target, while West Brom have repeatedly insisted no official approach has been made for their manager, who has two years remaining on his Hawthorns contract.
But that has not quelled speculation over the amount of compensation it would take to land the former Hoops defender, with figures ranging from 850,000 to 2million.
