2022/23 Sean Dyche

[MACCA75]

I loved that post match press conference.

This feller wont get ahead of himself and he wont let players do that - and he'll vet any new signing into this club to make sure they know what hard work is all about.

First time I’d seen that. I liked it. He really doesn’t sugar coat anything does he. We are only half way up the mountain.

 

[degsy]

But what does it mean in practice? It’s all very well and good saying “just finish 14th” but what players do you buy to do that? Why should they be different to the players you buy to try and get up the table?

Saying “let Dyche get us stable in 14th” is just disingenuous double talk for let Dyche buy a load of average wasters who will continue to ruin the club financially and stop us from ever being able to get out of this trap we are in. There will never be an end to it and to these people there will never be a point at which they will want us to take risks again.

Also spending money isn’t what has killed us.

Rubbish !
Spending it unwisely did that.

Not spending money is why we are where we are.

More Rubbish.
See above.

Turning off the taps hasn’t saved us from FFP, so what was the point?

So we didn't get deeper in the poo.

We're not even at camp 1. We're at base camp still trying to acclimatise to the conditions and lack of oxygen before even heading to camp 1 where we'll park the tent, align the ropes, cut out the noise and wipe the sweat from our nose, cheeks, beard, forehead, back to nose and then sniff our fingers.

It's what Sean would want us to do.

You can tell he's excited to get down to it already.

I reckon he knows this is his big chance to make a mark in management.

It's his opportunity to prove himself as a Prem-caliber turnaround artist for those outside the top six, irrespective of club.

Any idiot can do it once. Twice is a pattern. He can find work until retirement on that rep, provided he earns it. He has the advantage of being someone where no one ever questioned his desire. His teams played like they meant it. The question always was ability.

 

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

Why are people thinking this?

It was the same at Burnley - "he had limited funds and a crap squad", yet it was his team, with his players, assembled by him, playing the way he wants them to play. It will be absolutely the same here, except now he can potentially have more money for more Jay Rodriguez's and Wout Weghorsts.

I'm aroused. This is the Dyche revolution baby!

I think he can do what Moyes did for us - after relegation scrapes he came in and banished them for a decade and more. Dyche is in a very strong position to cement himself here because of those fears.

 

[Gallaeo]

At no point did I think we were staying up. I think that’s what 2 seasons of effectively never being safe, unable to comeback from going behind or get a point away did to me.

we have to stick with a manager at some stage and can’t see in our predicament how anyone would contemplatema change. Mina will be a big loss but look what he did with no forward. Drawing away from home and actually getting points (might have been a bit braver away some games but pragmatic). Late equalisers.
home form of late not great but Newcastle / city are miles ahead of us. Fulham was poor granted.

but actually creating chances. I’d defo take no relegation battle. More contracts gone end next season (on players being paid too much that no one would buy them) then and into new stadium. then start looking upwards.

This will be gradual but he’s earned the right to start the journey. No question

I'm just impressed that he got us to the foot of the right mountain.

But you're right. Sean may be the sherpa we need. It's finger sniffing time finally!

Or perhaps we should wait to see how he does over a full season instead of declaring him the next decade-serving manager based on an 18 game sample size that returned 21 points and 5 wins?!...

Dave did not say that. He said that Dyche has a strong position for achieving that outcome, which is not the same thing. There's still plenty of lifting to do. Dyche admitted that himself in the last-day presser.

You can tell he's excited to get down to it already.

The thing I liked was he came out immediately after the game and said "the work starts now"

He knows surviving relegation is not good enough but he also realises the mess we're in.

There's a touch of realism tempered by a desire to do well. He is looking long term and has stated he's been planning for pre season and the summer transfer window already.

All this talk of moving on to a new manager is bonkers in my opinion.

That's far too sensible mate. You know how GOT works. They are either the messiah or dog turd.

Plus, Davek has to make his bold pronouncements so there's vault gold for the 23/24 season manager war*


*GOT tradition, usually starts in earnest no later than October each year.

I cant imagine there's too many who want Dyche out.

You wait all you want. I've seen enough.
