2024/25 Sean Dyche

[Toffeepot]

You’re right but there are times when we did just punt it long before Dyche, mainly when big Dunc was here under Royle, Smith etc.

Got fed up of Unsworth just punting it long to Dunc , was monotonous

Hoofball was more common back then too though
These days decent goalies are losing their place coz they can't ping a ball to the FB or show close control with their feet
Dyche is awful
and an arrogant muppet to boot

 

[Toffeepot]

Unfortunately, this is probably the best-case scenario.

Before the season started, my biggest fear was that he'd get an extension.

If fans keep making noises that they are happy with 17th and are buying into his rhetoric that we are relegation fodder (which quite a few on here are it seems) then he will get a new contract

 

[Davideeyore]

Is he still here?

 

[nsno-chris]

That's just not true.

It was though

 

[ToffeeScot]

It was though

If you were watching last seasons game, sure. This season? No. Daft hyperbole keeps getting thrown out about us and Dyche because people don't like him.

Nothing wrong with efficient long punts, arguably our neighbours made a living out of it. But the current problem is there's no coherent plan in place. No tactics.

Slightly concerning that the success we enjoyed for 80 mins on Saturday was in spite of Dyche not because of.

That's not right at all , most of the service Duncan got was from wingers getting to the byline and crossing it.( something we just do not do atm )

Btw most teams played long balls in those days. It was very rarely played out from the back that is common nowadays.

We are comfortably the worst team for it.

No this seasons game, the one that happened last Tuesday.

The first half we had zero shots on goals, Doncaster had 2

We were awful so stop trying to act like it was fine. Its utterly embarassing

Nice to see us top of a table though.

We've never shone so brightly, wooo.

 

[Llyrap]

There is no one left to sack him.

We have no money to sack him.

Even if I am wrong about both of those they will not sack after 4 games of the season as it would simply exemplify how utterly incompetent they are. Second thoughts...................

We hit the post in the first half and a deflected shot go narrowly over the bar. We weren't awful. We were fine. Aside from the one Pickford save, Doncaster did barely anything to trouble us in the first half.

Of course we have money to sack him
Pay him off for the year
Pay the next guy less

 

[terryefc]

I always judge a team on the quality of their full backs.
Ours are horrific. Should have been addressed well before this latest window.

 

[roy vernon]

That's just not true.

That's your opinion, in my opinion, which is just as valid as yours, there was little to choose between the teams in the first half.

 

[Austrax]

Keep Dyche. He must kick arse. And he will. I predict a twelfth finish in the league.

Positivity at last.
