Dyche Sacked

[warminsterclaret]

I'm surprised to be honest.

[warminsterclaret]

And gutted for Sean.

[malwayne]

So am I. Thought he would have been there till the season ended in any case.
Are we seeing another side to Pace ? Why give him an extension to his contract a few months ago ?

I'm surprised to be honest.

I did think he was going tbh , but at season end in my mind anyway , I hope they’ve got someone in mind , unless we’re just conceding the drop is inevitable, though pushing Dyche now makes you think they have a plan.

On the record and I have said many times the man has been brilliant for us , made us a proper club but I think the time was right.

We peaked at 7th thanks to Sean who did an amazing job with relatively little backing. I wonder where we will bottom out?

[kritichris]

I'm surprised too given the length of his outstanding contract, must have cost them a bit. I thought they'd give him a chance to bounce us back like last time.

Assistant manager Ian Woan, first-team coach Steve Stone and goalkeeping coach Billy Mercer have also left the club.

I am surprised but it can only be expected as I think he had lost the dressing room.He wont be out of work long.

From a Lions fan sad to see such a poor exit after his 10 years of service, he should have been able to see the season out, and why did the club have to sell Chris Wood, not Sean's fault. If you find yourselves in the championship he could have got you out because it is a tough league, for example look at WBA, they won't even make the playoffs, but good luck.

[ClaretinBudapest]

Silly decision unless they have somebody else lined up immediately.

[Swissclaret]

Better late than never. Many of us have expressed thanks for what he has done for the club. However, this season and last season has been steady decline as teams have passed us by.

He suffered the lack of support and investment on the field to his credit. He made the proverbial “silk purse” but this season has highlighted his weaknesses in sticking to a formula that does not work, is too loyal to certain players and is averse to bringing in youth. The “Burnley Way”.

Hopefully, we will now see the best of Cornet and Weghorst in the remaining matches. Vydra, with a bit of pace, might even get a game. However, Westwood et al have to adapt and stop the hoof ball and give us a chance to keep possession.
