Even though Coyle played for Glentoran, it took some of the fans a while to get used to him after managing their bitter rivals Linfield.
Coyle brought that success he had with Linfield and became Glentoran's most successful manager ever by winning 16 trophies with Glentoran.
In 2006, after winning the league, Glentoran started to have a string of poor results.
The fans started to turn against Coyle and the players.
Then an away match to Armagh City saw Glentoran crashing to a 5–2 defeat at Holm Park.
At the final whistle, Glentoran fans booed the players and as Coyle walked by, some of the fans nearby shouted "Coyle Out!"
Coyle resigned that evening.
