2024/25 Sean Dyche - Sacked

[davek]

No it's because;

1. The football is crap
2. There's no attacking play in this team
3. We're a laughing stock
4. Were boring and predictable
5. We've won 3 games all season
6. We've lost to saints who get smashed by every one,
7. We couldnt beat 10 men Brentford,
8. We blew leads against Bournemouth, villa and Leicester with a manager whose supposed to be sound defensively
9. Dyche has regressed since last year with a 'better squad'
10. Our set pieces are crap which was a cornerstone of our outcome last year

All of that - even if all of it were true - matters not one jot if we get 17th or better this season.

 

[Nymzee]

You'd rather we lost more games.

Fantastic.

Honestly at this point you just need taking out back and shooting.

Could be a good evening if:

Fulham found another goal or two
Arsenal get a win (playing Everton btw lads)
Newcastle get another couple
Wolves get an equaliser

 

[billyblue80]

How is appointing a CEO more important than the manager lol

Don't believe he knows much TFG are famously quiet until they make the decision. They might be working on a ceo but this matter has become urgent

 

[Rooney_Tunes]

Let's have it right: the only reason there are people calling for Dyche to go when we're two places above relegation with a game in hand and winnable games to come for two months is because they know we have a new owner and they believe there's room to put pressure on them as they did with Moshiri to force change.

We wouldn't be having this debate otherwise.

You're either taking the P, or you're stupid.

 

[Gilbert..]

It's a bad run of form and he's doing all our heads in currently.. but, like some, I'm also weary of the actual implications of changing manager now, especially if it's only a short-term option.

I think if Dyche stays it's because the Friedkins will be pretty resolute in their plans to stay the current course until the end of the season and begin the 'rebuild' proper in the summer. Chances are that whoever the next manager they had in mind was only going to be an option once Dyche's contract ran down..

Its more than just a bad run of form. Most of it is consistent poor form.
In a calender year 1 single win away from home.
In a calender year the lowest goals from open play over any other club in the division.
2022. He had Burnley relegated
2023 we stayed up with 45 minutes to spare
Last season. He did ok. But look at some individual games. Double over Forest. Thats not happening again. The odds on beating liverpool again are very slim. 3 terrible teams below us have gone. We've not got that comfort blanket. Good argument to say we've replaced one of them. We're now that terrible team.

The here and now of this season. Not even close to a goal a game. No goals in 9 of the last 11 games. 1 goal from open play in 10.
Every stat is a negative. Every comment from him is negative. He tells reporters we're sh!t. And to never expect anything other than sh!t.

I can imagine clubs around us are praying we keep Dyche as manager. I know i would.
He's done. Get shot and lets start fighting for the 57 points left.

 

[degsy]

We're spiralling out of control with 3 defeats since the middle of September.

...and look where it's got us - sometimes it's not what you do, but how you do it and Dyche isn't doing it very well, not very well at all.

 

[Drico]

It's the manor of the last couple of defeats which are most concerning and ultimately why Dyche's time is up with us (and has been for a while).

We need a couple of league wins this month, and the fixtures we have a certainly winnable, but that simply won't happen if we play like we did against Bournemouth: aim to not concede with little to no attempt to try and score ourselves.

I can't see him lasting the month.

Watch these idiots dither now in January, eventually succumb to reality (too late), and then bring in some patsy after the window has closed.

I'm relieved the Friedkins appear to have rescued the club from financial oblivion, but they've made a very inauspicious start to actually running the club mainly because they are remarkably unprepared.

If they wanted to keep Thelwell, they should have announced his contract extension on day one and provide clarity. Ditto with Dyche. But they want to have it both ways: short-term stability and medium-term leverage. Well, the real world doesn't work like that. I've called for the heads of both Thelwell and Dyche, but both are entitled to feel messed about by these Texan cowboys who have, it seems, denied them any clarity.

They're trying to muddle through. It might well work out for them, but it's clear they are playing both sides here. Let's hope the outcome is worth the risk.

 

[Tipp blue]

We're spiralling out of control with 3 defeats since the middle of September.

Ony 3 defeats since mid September... it's January now, we must be well up the table, maybe within a shout of Europe for BMD first season.

 

[Lowste]

We need patience for players to come back in to the reckoning and we need a couple of players through the door.

There's no need for the major surgery of dumping managers and handing out a task to an unknown quantity who may or may not get along with the players and / or be able to get a tune out of them.

Dyche is Dyche. He'll get the required level of performance once the injuries have ended and we'll get safe.

I hope you are right….
If being bluntly honest, I am not sure an injection of new players or players returning will benefit us greatly
The problem is down to tactics, I am not sure Dyche can change from being Dyche

Let’s just hope he somehow finds a way of winning games

 

[davek]

...and look where it's got us - sometimes it's not what you do, but how you do it and Dyche isn't doing it very well, not very well at all.

We're 16th when our target is 17th.

"Not very well at all"?

It's not comfortable I'll give you that. But we know that if a club with poor resources loses its two most creative midfield players it's going to struggle.

We need those two back plus at least two starters in this window.

 

[The Penalty Box Dancer]

Why would I do that? And where's the 4th defeat?

Villa
Southampton
Forest
Bournemouth

 

[Eggsyblueskin]

You're either taking the P, or you're stupid.

Both ?

 

[Rooney_Tunes]

Both ?

Probably...

 

[davek]

Villa
Southampton
Forest
Bournemouth

We're a poor team.

What I can promise you though is fight and determination from a squad dedicated to their manager...and that should be enough to get us over the line...it'd be easier still if we sign some more players though.

All talk should be on player signings not managerial change. The latter is unproductive.

 

[Rooney_Tunes]

Both ?

I think he wants us to be relegated.
