Gamble on Ince to take Burnley vacancy

PAUL INCE has been slashed to take over as Burnley boss after Eddie Howe left the club and returned to Bournemouth last week.

Ince, who’s had spells in charge at local rivals Blackburn as well as MK Dons and Notts County, was quoted as high as 80-1 at one point with BetVictor but the firm now go 4-1, with Paddy Power going even further with the Guv'nor just 5-2.

The former England international has been out of management since April 2011 after leaving League One Notts County following a nine-game losing streak and Owen Coyle remains favourite for a return to Turf Moor.
