2024/25 Sean Dyche

I know it has been said that his sole purpose is to keep us up but you aren't achieving anything with that mindset, nor is the club in the position to take a step forward. You have to take chances, risks, etc. That isn't happening with Dyche. It's time to get rid of Dyche and bring someone else in, no idea who, but at this point there is no other choice in my opinion. I'd rather go down fighting than tuning into this crap week in and week out.

Well he’s consistently explained he’s a custodian, he’s not the manager to drive us forward. The hope we stay in the league with what we have until 2025 is a dream after several years of chronic mismanagement.
 
But we can afford to sack him. He's got 6 months left. Either way that's going onto this year's accounts whether he's paid as per his contract up til the end or if he gets it all now.

Unless we haven't got the cash for the next guy, in which case, we're proper Donald ducked

Two lanes of thought here though...

Spend £3mill to sack Dyche then bring in someone short term? Long term? Who's making that decision.

If it's short term...it means the new manager is here just to keep us in the league. Which unless there's absolutely zero faith in Dyche to do so, it's difficult to bring in someone decent for 6 months without spending for the privilege. If it's 18 month and still short term, you're spending on sacking him.

If it's long term... surely the new owner has to get his hands on keys before they make that call.

So that £3mill can soon turn larger. Can also just be passing the plate spinning to someone else to do the same job

Why is he even managing this club If he thinks he'd be better suited to emptying the bins and wiping down the stadium rails?......I think that mentality is very limiting and it endangers a club further when it's your objective to always just to survive. I'm in the minority on this but I feel there are some decent talents at this club not being properly utilized because of his negative pseudo pragmatic outlook
 

It's inconceivable to me that there aren't articles in mainstream news outlets speculating on Dyches future. Bloody Bournemouth or Palace would have sacked their manager if he had the results we've had over the last year.
So frustrating.

It’s because we don’t matter one jot mate .

The media are more concerned with the fact that City are imploding, the RS look to be running away with the league and Arsenal don’t look like they’re going to challenge ( at the mo )

We’re an irrelevance, as are most of the rest of the teams in the league.
 
The cost of sacking Dyche is compo which should be no more than paying out the remainder of his contract - <3M.
The cost of keeping until season end is also <3M
The danger to the club in terms of risk of relegation in either approach is what matters.
So the real question is, who would be his replacement and does that person guarantee our status next season?

Because the board and investors realized that the trajectory the club was on was wrong, and a risk based approach was taken. We are dangerously close to relegation because of the above comment, they have very clearly decided mediocre management is a better fit than ambition, I don’t agree with it but ok that’s football.
 
Put him on gardening leave if we can't afford to sack him. Put baines and Coleman in charge till his contract expires, we only need a little boost
That would be a disaster.

The last thing we can afford is to appoint managers with zero experience at the moment.
We are in a relegation scrap and need an experienced manager that can come in and take control of the group from day 1.

A manager that has his own policies and strong enough not to listen to players who will invariably trying to protect their own interests.
