I think Frank would be, seems to run his course

Frank wouldn’t be my pick but imo post-takeover he is gettable, if expensive. I think he’s done all he can with Brentford and he’s clever enough to know it. On paper it’s a sideways move right now but one club is at its ceiling and another pretty much at its floor.

it won’t be a manager in england
 

….same could be said for Dyche.
A bad workman blames his tools.
In truth my years in the construction industry have taught me that good craftsmen don’t need the best tools to produce outstanding work.
It’s the skill and knowledge of the person that produces the work , a truly skilled craftsman overcomes the any deficiency in his tools because he utilises that skill and knowledge.
The best can produce outstanding work with only basic tools.
It is the same with artists, I have witnessed artists who have honed their skills over the years produce outstanding drawings , paintings and sculptures armed only with the cheapest artists supplies, the kind you buy your children to keep them quiet.
When Dyche was first mooted we were told that Dyche was such a person in his trade , someone who could get good results with poor players.
It is noticeable that those who championed this view were among the first to criticise the quality of the players for poor results .
And they are still blaming the players for Dyche’s deficiencies now.
The truth is to me , in the managerial world Dyche is not a craftsman at the forefront of his craft , he is a rather ordinary manager who can never exceed the quality of his players.
And £5m that is not good enough.
