Coleman to Burnley?
 

Quick thought...
Looks like Burnley will be after a new manager come tomorrow tea-time, do you reckon Coley will be linked considering his ability to work on a shoe-string?
I think it would be nice for him to be linked however I couldn't see it happening as Burnley would want someone proven at a higher level (I presume).

How do I answer this without upsetting all my Stanley friends on here.:cool::D

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

So you think you have friends on here!!!

Coley is due to sign a contract extension here at the Crown!!

Also he's no experience at fighting relegation battles, so I'm not sure his CV will do BFC.

Dave Basset is available I hear!!!

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

I'm sat here heartbroken and all you can do is poke fun at me :(:bootyshak

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

I was going to ask if he was going to Burnley, could he drop a sack off in Barrowford but realised it was Coleman not Coal Man:D

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

How long have you been saving that one up ? :D

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

As a famous comedian once said "That's a cracker" or should that be "That's out of cracker":D

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

No experience of fighting relegation battles?

As a part-time Rover I saddens me to say that I don't think they'll be involved in one, Coyle (if he leaves) will leave a team that is resillient and can cope with changes for a while and there home form (mainly due to the fans) should just about keep them up regardless of who is in charge.
And unless you've just started supporting Stanley more often than not (I presume, being a young un) Coleman has been involved in relegation battles.

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

He knows nowt about Stanley that Mr T. Glory supporter :rofl38::rofl38::rofl38:

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

Quite right, Dave. Never seen him on t'Crown before this season. Bandwagon jumper!

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

more often than not?

in 11 years at Stanley he has successfully fought 3 relegation battles (in League 2), successfully fought 3 promotion battles (Unibond 1st, Unibond Prem and the Conference) had four years of top ten and this year is on the cusp of the play-offs with games in hand that could put us 5th.

prior to that he finished 3rd and then 2nd with Ashton United

prior to that he was probably one of the greatest strikers in English non-league history - and without looking up the stats players like that tend to be at the right end of the league.

retraction due methinks

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

oh yeah, and Mr T? he only looks 12 anyway!

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

The owd saying= "Put yer brain in a budgie,it would fly backwards" springs to mind.:rofl38::rofl38::rofl38::rofl38:

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

"A glory hunter" I'm impressed!!!

Next time at 8-30am I'm pulling back frost covers or when I'm attempting to explan Club policy @ 8-30pm I'll remind myself of my new title!!!

At least I've progressed; 2nd year in the Conference I was "a jobsworth with a club tie"!!

At least I'm progressing!!!:)

you're only after a free feed

oops :o

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

Listen...when I was propping up the bar in the Globe (RIP) that night in 1979-ish and you walked in and politely enquired of Doreen, the landlady, if you could ask the regulars if they had any old Stanley memorabillia, I said to myself: "that lad's a gloryhunter...here today, gone tomorrow."...and I'm never wrong!

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

Class, that is :D That is you well and truly told!!! Which fool made you a V.P.????? :rolleyes: :) :) :)

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

I think Mr T he was pulling your leg and he bit. We all know who you are :)

Regarding the thread.
Coley to replace Coyle
Accrington to Burnley
League 2 to Premiership

I dont think so and im glad not!!

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

either that or he may have asked ya to post a face saver?:D

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

Nope, cant say ive spoke to him recently. However his posts gave me a very good midnight laugh :D

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

I dont believe hell be approached at all, no one even in league 1 has ever looked at coley for replacement, never mind premier league. Afterall, remember what a great job paul ince did just up the road after the same jump in leagues

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

I understand what you are saying, but please never ever use the Ince word again alongside Coley.................I mean its an insult of the highest order to our Manager!! :D:):D

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

Fair enough then :(...

However in my defence in recent times Coleman has had relegation battles I wrongly presumed that he had been in them before.

I'm glad you like your new title Mr T :p

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

You actually were being serious weren't you :eek:

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

Whoever made the topic may have been so just going with the idea ha mike phelan favourite for job i hear...

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

There seems to be a lot of favourites :D

Personal Choice - Curbishley or Coppell

Definate No-No's Cotterill or Reid. In fact if they got Cotterill back I would buy a season ticket at Rovers :rolleyes:

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

So whats wrong with a Stanley season ticket:D

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

if Burnley appoint Alan Curbishley then they will go down. They will want a 'name' to keep the 10 players out of contract in the summer at the club and to try and attract a few more in.

Anyway, lets keep the football genius that is John Coleman our secret. I have a horrible feeling if we beat Gillingham and give Fulham a good game in the 4th round, our managers name may attract interest from other chairmen, especially Tranmere Rovers.

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

Both John & Jimmy will know that they are much more likely to achieve success with us than with a club like Tranmere. The only way I can see them leaving soon is if a silly offer comes in from a massive club.

A young, talented squad is being moulded here and I can see serious success coming our way in the next couple of years. It's scary but it's becoming a very real prospect that we'll be moving up the leagues sooner rather than later. The management team will be doing so with a team that is completely theirs. Most clubs above us need serious weeding out before going anywhere.

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

I was only saying it would be nice for him to get a mention. He's the third longest serving manager, a few promotions and he's doing well on a shoe-string. I know he won't leave for Burnley as he's no experience up at the top.

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

Nor had Owen Coyle.:)

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

You are about right with that Shaker! :) Plus, haven't they signed up for a couple of years?

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

Aye that's true but they weren't in the premiership then. They were sort of safe in the Championship if I remember correctly.

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

A group on facebook started by a 2BR presenter . Anyone seen it?

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

nah - he's after a job on the continent - BBC Sport - Football - Accrington boss John Coleman calls for fixture wipeout

Re: Coleman to Burnley?
 

What's it called?

I think Coleman has a point why not have a 2 week slot at the end of the season so re-arranged league games will be put there to stop fans travelling the length of the country twice in one night e.g. Barnet Cup replay.
