Burnley Thread - 2021/22

Crazy with 8 games left ? Do they think somebody comes in a save's them from the drop

Piss off. Do you think I'd manage that bunch of inbred cloggers?

Surprising news.

i have zero time for Mr Dyche and his horrible brand of football but sacking him at this stage of the season seems like a very strange decision.

As others have said who is going to be able to come in now and save them from relegation with only 8 games to go ?

I wonder if the Club’s owners have already conceded relegation and have started cutting the wage bill.

Mental decision. Too late in the day fora replacement to have any impact and Dyche didn't appear to have lost the dressing room, I wasn't ruling them as gone just yet before this news broke. Not only does this confirm relegation, but who's going to bring them straight back up to prevent the decline into obscurity never to return? Their squad is poor, they're losing their best players this summer when contracts are up, they needed Dyche to stand a chance of getting back up. We won't play Burnley in the league again for a very long time now.

The only downside to them going down is the loss of six guaranteed points.

The timing seems odd.

If it was because of the defeat to Norwich last weekend, you would have thought that he would have been sacked on Monday or Tuesday.

As someone posted earlier, perhaps there is more to it than that.

Quite winnable games left. Fat Sam will step in

Don't worry Burnley fans, financial fair play will save you from your incoming bankruptcy

Selling your star striker to a relegation rival in the January transfer window...... seems like the board already had resigned to going down

And there were posters on here, who said that Burnley acquiring Weghorst was better business than Newcastle taking Wood from the Clarets.

It hasn’t proved to be the case.

What Burnley need is a foreign manager.

Who was the last Englishman to win the Premiership title as the Manager. I think it was Howard Wilkinson at Leeds in the early nineties.

30 years ago.

English managers are not very good at all. They are, by and large, pretty rubbish at winning titles compared to Italian Managers, German Managers, Dutch Managers, Spanish Managers and even Portuguese Managers.

You failed to mention Chilean managers!

Even if it was a bad deal and it was why sell a goalscorer to a team that could eventually relegate you. Its like selling KDB to the dippers
