BRENDAN Flood has admitted former Wigan boss Paul Jewell is an unrealistic target for the Burnley manager's vacancy.
"I think the reality is, even if we were the richest club in the land, Paul Jewell would want to be in the top half of the Premiership," said Flood.
"It occurred to us but it's probably just beyond our reach if we're honest."
"There are certain managers who have enquired for the job at Burnley who particularly have got a desire to be a manager of Burnley.
"We've got a lot of people who want the job, there are a lot of decent names," he added.
"We'll hopefully see the people we want to see in time and make our appointment over the course of the next week."
