The Board can roll out any excuse they like, they have failed miserably...

...there may be unrest in the camp, maybe Dyche has had enough and cannot be arsed I don't know, but for me the MAIN fault lies with the second hand car salesman Garlick and his poor Management.
This presumably would be the Board who have taken an unfashionable, small-town club into the English Premiership, managed to be 'best of the rest' with last season's seventh place, whilst simultaneously getting the ground and training facilities back into club ownership and upgraded; all this this being achieved without turning to outside
and most particularly 'overseas' investment and its inherent risks. Indeed I'd guess that BFC are probably one of the most financially solvent clubs in the country (perhaps the whole of Europe?) and not 'at risk' from the whim of a single big-money backer.

Yep, it sounds to me like they've done such an appalling job, that the supporters of perhaps no more than seventy or eighty of the English League clubs would currently want to exchange boards of directors with us, as for a new Chairman, who's your proposal? Should we enquire as to whether Mike Ashley, one of the Venkys, or perhaps one of those nice Oyston boys from Blackpool want a job? Better yet, given Burnley FC's well documented reluctance to pay compensation to other clubs for 'poaching' their management staff, what's Peter Ridsdale doing nowadays?
