    I completely get your stance and in truth I’m not the worlds best coach - footballer so can’t judge really - there are many on here who posted as i did when we gave games away due to shape and non changing of tactics, I said after the Brighton game we’d be relegated as they went to 5 in the middle and swept us aside from being 1-0 down, there is also the argument that Dyche just wanted British players ( which cost more and our board didn’t want to spend money anyway) so did that pigeon hole him as well and put more pressure on us with finance, reality is at the end the directors knew they were selling and didn’t want to invest any of their money in for players when they were getting out anyway.

    We just got stuck in a rut at the end and Dyche was swimming against the tide - footballs moved at such a pace in 10 years - thing is I don’t think Sean moved with it.

    I still think he’ll do Ok at Everton if they persist and don’t sack him in 6 months.

    They have some good players there which helps.
    Yea I totally agree with all of that.

    Eddie Howe mon ami, looks right, talks right and he's a Southerner. What else do you need?

    Eddie is doing really well but with the demands of the Club I can't see him being there in 3 years time.

    Yes, fair enough mon ami, I'd forgotten about Eddie. He does tick all the boxes doesn't he.

    I still think back to 2009 at Wembley, big city club Sheffield United were on their way back to their rightful place in the PL, and little old Burnley would just have to suck it up, and it may well have worked out that way had Mike Dean not missed two penalties that everyone else at Wembley saw. The Blades have been struggling in our wake ever since, sometimes life's just not fair is it.

    Two? I only remember Christian Kalvenes running into one of them. Think it was right near the end...

    "Burnley created a series of chances and went close from distance several times - in stark contrast to their Yorkshire opponents, whose best hope of an equaliser came from two penalty appeals."

    I thought about 3-1 would have been about right that day and what a bloody marvellous day (and night) it was!
