ISL 2020-21: Owen Coyle to be Jamshedpur FC’s new manager

The Scotland-born coach, who had a fantastic season with Chennaiyin last time out, has opted to take charge of the Men of Steel…

Indian Super League (ISL) outfit Jamshedpur FC are all set to announce Owen Coyle as their manager for the 2020-21 season, Goal can confirm.

Coyle, who took Chennaiyin FC to the final of the ISL last season, has opted to part ways with the South Indian outfit and take charge of the Men of Steel.

The former Bolton Wanderers manager has penned a two-year deal with Jamshedpur FC.

The former Irish international only joined Chennaiyin FC six games into the 2019-20 season after John Gregory parted ways after a poor start to the campaign. However, he had only signed till the end of the season and has now opted to take on the Jamshedpur challenge.

Coyle was an instant hit after taking charge of the Marina Machans, changing the mood at the club with a terrific run of form.

Coyle’s adventurous and attacking approach suited Chennaiyin’s key players like Rafael Crivellaro, Anirudh Thapa, Lallianzuala Chhangte and Nerijus Valskis as they managed to land a play-off spot despite being bottom of the table at one stage.

The 54-year-old even managed to mastermind a two-legged win over FC Goa in the play-offs before faltering at the final hurdle against ATK.

Jamshedpur, on the other hand, endured a disappointing campaign despite starting the season on a positive note. But injuries to their key players at important junctures in the season meant they missed out on a play-off spot for the third season in a row.

The Men of Steel will hope that Coyle can finally ensure they end the ignominy of being the only team yet to reach the ISL play-offs ever.

NewsColony Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers © The Independent Singapore Singapore — A group of volunteers from the Mummy Yummy Singapore welfare organisation donated their SingapoRediscovers Vouchers to book a hotel room for a homeless man. The man, who was identified as Jayden, did not have a place to live while waiting for the Housing Board (HDB) to allocate him a rental flat. In a Facebook post on Mummy Yummy Singapore’s page on Wednesday (Dec 16), the volunteers said: “We used our $100 Rediscover Singapore vouchers to redeem hotel stay for him and successfully booked 9 days worth of stay at 3 days per voucher.” They added that they were unable to book a longer stay because of higher hotel rates over Christmas and New Year. The volunteers hoped that they would be able to bridge Jayden’s stay until he got a flat. “Thanks our government for giving us these vouchers which in return we can put them to good use for people in need,” th...
