Yeah definitely, but Dyche is a seasoned manager, should we say and should have known better. If it was a playful slap why did other players intervene ? Why did Tarkowski pull Sean to one side ? And to be fair has the article been overly exaggerated? After all it comes from Matt Hughes poisonous fingers. Let's wait and see before we all play the blame game. We know a fair few posters on here, ( don't mean you necessarily btw), have axes to grind with the two people involved.
That’s what gets me. I’d get that Dyche was joking about and hit him a bit harder than he meant. If that’s the case though, why did the other players seem to get so upset about it? Why does Tarkowski have to take him aside?
