Laws relishing Trotters test

Burnley manager Brian Laws admits Owen Coyle's return to the club has given his side`s Carling Cup third round clash with Bolton added spice. Former Clarets boss Coyle will be back at Turf Moor later this month in what promises to be an intriguing clash. Coyle incurred the wrath of Burnley fans when he quit the club to take over at the Reebok Stadium midway through last season. Yet Laws said: "Everyone knows what a fantastic job Owen Coyle did at Burnley and there has to be credit where credit is due. "He did a terrific job here and he is probably coming back to the club sooner than he thought. "I hope the supporters give him the applause he deserves, but clearly there is a lot of heartache there and this has added a little bit more spice to it."
