St Johnstone boss Derek McInnes linked to Burnley FC top job

A SCOTTISH newspaper is speculating that St Johnstone boss Derek McInnes is on Burnley FC’s shortlist in the hunt for a new manager.

The Scottish Courier states that the odds on McInnes replacing Laws at Turf Moor plummeted to 12/1 on Thursday.

It goes on: “The attraction of McInnes to Burnley is an obvious one given the success they enjoyed the last time they head-hunted a St Johnstone manager — Owen Coyle.”
