I really have never taken to Dyche but I will say I think firing him could be colossal mistake. I think a huge issue we have had is staggered hires during upheavel. We hired frank before the internal review was complete. Both Brands and Thelwell came in right after a managerial hire?
I fear a lot with 777 takeover but what I do think is that they will likely restructure the board and likely even Thelwell. Regardless of reputation a clean slate for a Manager might make our job more enticing by being the pole setter under a new regime.
I also think there could be some interesting options in the summer. Have a hunch there will be a fair amount of managerial turnover over the year.
One caveat is Potter. I just think the context and time since the Chelsea job may offer us a decent crack in getting him. Could he prematurely set up a structure and DoF prior to full 777 takeover? Otherwise I could see it go bottoms up quickly w/ again staggered appointments. But that aside, in the longterm we do need a development gaffer with contemporary tactics. This may be a small window of him specifically being attainable for us. Although without the backrooms sorted I would be nervous in how it would play out this season.
