2024/25 Sean Dyche - Sacked

So who should he have selected from the box of magic players they Dyche is refusing to open?



You realise sooner or later he is leaving. Doesn’t mean he hasn’t done a good job.

maybe he thinks he needs adults around the place at the minute. There is a lot to play for. Non of the youth players have a pray of coming through or are quite immature.
End of the day I can see no player left out the squad that enhances the team.

But maybe you think we should give some youngster a day out and that gives you a stick to beat Dyche with despite getting a good result?

I’m not talking about any player am I?

I’m talking about dyche and his attacking threat of a care bear
 

- A place in what is broadly considered to be the most competitive and compelling league in the world.

- A state of the art purpose built stadium, with bells and whistles in a location that is the envy of many clubs across Europe.

- Training facilities that are up there with the best across the league (with a commitment to invest from new owners).

- New billionaire owners, saying all the right things about the right things that leads you to suspect they have the medium/longer term success at the heart of decision making.

...then Dyche, playing anti football, that would have any half decent prospect, with any ambition of growing in the game running for the hills?

Everything bar the clubs playing style and manager is screaming progressive and upwards trajectory since the takeover and with the stadium on the horizon.
Footballers don't give a toss about the new ground. They would play on Stanley Park for a few more quid a week. The training facilities are on par with most other top flight clubs these days.

The league has 19 other clubs in it. The owners have proved nothing yet (obviously!)

It is screaming nothing yet, the only thing that has changed is we may stand a chance to push on a bit now that the previous idiot has gone.

Dyche is not holding us back at all, he only has a couple of months left on his contract.
 
I think he means that at the moment with the new ownership and stadium, the club has a lot going for it in terms of attracting talent.
But lots of creative players would swerve playing under Dyche.
Seeing what's happened to Jake O'Brien, they dont even have to be creative players.
What's happened to Jake O'Brien?

He has had one half decent season in a "farmers league".

Our defence is looking solid again after a ropey start (obviously as we had our best defender missing).

We have a long. long way to go before we start to become attractive.
 
Would it matter if we conceded more if we were scoring more and winning games, if a new manager could give you 2 or 3 wins that would take Dyche 6-9 games to get that sort of points return...

Reward in this league favours the brave and the ones willing to go and get wins...
You can draw 7 games and get 7 points, playing boring football, barely scoring a goal….

Or you can win 3 and lose 4 giving you 9 points and probably a bit more excitement. I know which one i’d choose
 
Who were given big money to challenge for the title. Mike walker was given Brett angel and sold Beagrie to buy Limpar and bought Parkinson for buttons.
Walter smith was given money when he first came in, then players got sold like big Dunc, and dacourt, matteratzi etc

I think he’s talking of Kendall in 97/98 season, who had hardly no money to spend tha
Mike walker spent 3.3m on amokachi, 2m plus on samways. And bought in Brian burrows ffs. Also got Ferguson on loan.
All big signings at the time. Amo broke the club record.
Barmby was bought in for record fee of £5.75 million under HK.
Walter smith was given big money on Colin’s, dacourt, mazzarati, and bakayoko. Agains one the seasons biggest spenders.
Dyche is the only one that was screwed for transfers.

Or you can play attractive football with no decent attackers and beat every game and get relegated.

> Footballers don't give a toss about the new ground. They would play on Stanley Park for a few more quid a week.

Take the point on cash. Though when two clubs offering the same/similar cash come along, those other items absolutely become a factor, and if a player was being advised correctly, he'd be told to avoid the manager with the track record of negative anti-football and favouring older 30+ players.

> The training facilities are on par with most other top flight clubs these days.

Agreed, that's what I said, for us to have facilities that rival the top clubs in the country is a selling point.

> The league has 19 other clubs in it. The owners have proved nothing yet (obviously!)

What we can prove is that they have invested in the first place, and what they have said since - we can imply from that, their intent. Which if true, would presumably leave us above many of those 19 clubs (outwith maybe 8 of them?)

Your man Dyche is doing far more damage than his negative playing style, anti-football and fairly embarrassing levels of gaslighting about performance on the park.

He is damaging the clubs reputation and our ability to attract the types of players we will need to start rebuilding for the future. Its only once he is gone that the club will begin the rebuild and begin working towards the future, the sooner he is gone the better.

Though I do agree, he will be given the next 6 months, depressingly.
