    Oh dear, this isn't looking good. There is one consistent message Sean is putting out now with every press conference, although he doesn't put it quite so obviously, 'I've taken this club as far as I can'.

    He won't be here much longer.

    But where would he go? Not the big 6 for sure they all want foreigners as does most of the PL with only 4 English managers left! Warnock and Hodgson being two nearing the end and Eddie the other. Mark Hughes counts for GB.

    Who knows where he would go OC, but 8 PL managers were sacked before the end of the January window last season, there's no reason to think another 8 or so vacancies won't be coming up this season as well, it's the nature of the beast. And 5 of those jobs went to British managers, Hodgson, Allardyce, Moyes, Pardew, and Lambert. I think Sean has proved himself as capable as any of them by now, it's wishful thinking imo, to think he won't be getting offers, and wishful thinking to think he won't be receptive to some of them.

    I guess we will see in due course. He did say our Salary bill was not £60m as some think, but £37m

    Yes it’s a big leap from having to toe the line with his PR interviews “knowing BFC’s capabilities”, to what he’s saying now.

    He did something similar a few years ago with undertones of not being happy which loosened the strings a little, but this time he’s let go with his real thoughts, which he has had to do as he knows he needs reinforcements to maintain the Club.

    So it looks like it’s up to penny pincher Garlick, does he back him or watch him say ta ta when a better offer comes along ?

    It would not surprise me one bit if Garlick didn’t budge, all his bollox about being a Burnley supporter has never washed with me, he’s a business man first and foremost.

    Still not one comment coming from SD that he is not being backed. He would love access to Citeh's millions, in the same way I would like a new Aston Martin. Neither of us are going to get what we want so we will just have to Keep Calm & Carry On!


    I'm guessing we would chuck £50 million at it, but we will not pay wages of £75k a week. Sounds right with me!

    I’d guess at someone like Aston Villa Oc , massive club, now with wealthy owners and looking to get into the Premiership

    Completely agree Sinkov.He has lost patience with the board and I for one do not blame him.He will be plying his trade elsewhere as soon as a good offer comes along from a club willing to spend and give him the tools for the job.

    Leicester when they sack Puel....rumour has it that Puel needs to get off to a flying start. The owners were not happy the Foxes missed out on Europe.

    Bonus: It's a short commute from Kettering and back.
