2024/25 Sean Dyche

I don’t think anyone ever wanted him as a long term solution, or even think he should get any longer than the end of the season off he season after. He was brought in to keep us up and guide us through the sticky patch of Moshiri pulling his money, PS&R, points deductions, whilst Moshiri sold the club. Once Friedkin is in he’ll pick his own manager whether it’s the end of the season or sooner. The job now is all about just getting us enough points to derisk any need for a rushed decision. The win yesterday helped in that respect. He’s on the home straight now of seeing us over the line to a new owner and new stadium as a PL team with its worst financial days behind it.

Hopefully, yes.

New manager will need backing also... how this works with the nonsensical ffp bull is anyones guess... weve sold most of the family silver...
 

What a vacuous and childish response.
Why are you such a cap-doffer ?
Dyche

1. Was a footballer at a high level
2. Has done his coaching badges
3. Has managed in the championship and Premier league for a long time

My response was to someone saying hes looked at this forum and decided to change his ways.

It was a joke.

You suggesting you know as much about the game as Dyche because you're older than him is just hilarious though.

You're around this squad 5 days a week, behind the scenes, know their personalities, and crunch the data do you?

Or are you just older than him and have played a bit and watch the game?
 
20p has been inserted into the heads of all the dyche lovers after yesterday.

We were still awful let's get it right, a mcneil worldie bailed him out, bot anything he did.

Still counting down the days until he's sacked
There's been a consistent presence of 'Dyche lovers' in this thread when we were losing as well mate. Don't think that it's just because of a win. It's because this is the thread where we discuss Sean Dyche
 
Lindsstrom and Ndiaye starting now, Mangala starting, Iroegbunam started games at the start of the season. Not bad for the manager who would apparently never play the new signings he’d been given. It’s almost as though they’ll contribute a lot to the entire season and just needed some games to get up to speed and integrated into the team rather than the first couple of games being an absolute certain predictor of the rest of the season. Keane once again benched the moment Branthwaite is fit.
Had no choice but to play Tim and has quickly dropped him once mangala was fit-ish also Gana hasn’t trained for a while,
As his dad passed away and James garner hasn’t been fully fit either, Ndiaye should have started the first game of the season, he’s getting games, because Dyche has moved McNeil central as doucoure finished last season in horrendous form and started this season the same, I’m not sure dyche wanted to play him as one of the two midfielders, but again his hand was forced and we’ve just played Leicester and palace, I think he will get destroyed in that position against good opposition. Also lindstrom started, because Harrison had an issue, injury/illness

Let’s not make out dyche is some genius, his hand has basically been forced. Also Tim will now be 5th choice with everyone fit the same With Lindstrom, he won’t start that many games moving forward. And dragged him off at half time yesterday. How many times did he drag Harrison or McNeil off at half time last season, when they were having shockers. And there was plenty of games to choose from.

Dyche has his go to favourites, that’s not changing

Go a bit quiet when we lose every week though and pipe up when we get our first win in 7.

He'll get gone soon anyway so it's sound, I can live with it for now, knowing his time is coming to an end.

We give all football managers way too much credit. Footballers, by and large, are morons. They go on to manage because it is a closed industry. No other reason.

I fully expect that if it was opened up to everyone, you'd see very few ex-players make the cut.

:lol:

You know what I’ve realised over the years is that intelligence is highly dimensional. As in, a person can be highly intelligent in some areas but very dumb in others.

You could think about about Wayne Rooney, who while many would probably put him (fairly or not) in the dumb footballer bracket, is able to talk very lucidly about the game, and how he would basically use psychological pre-visualisation techniques to enhance his preparation as a player.

Still yet to hit anywhere near the same heights as a manager, of course.
 
From yesterdays guardian, musing over dyches media prospects after the Everton job:
The Dyche brand is strong. He could, if he chooses, pivot into a media career very easily. I would definitely listen to a tough love Sean Dyche podcast on male wellbeing. The Dyche-vehicle TV pitch meetings write themselves. Dyche on a Bike: Sean Dyche tours the UK’s coastal paths on a bicycle. Van Dyche: Sean Dyche drives around in a van. Dyche’s Reich: Sean Dyche takes a deep dive into the enduring lessons of Nazi Germany. Live and Let Dyche: thriller in which an undercover Sean Dyche foils a Caribbean drug cartel and also debunks the tarot card industry.
Class, crying here.
