You're saying this is the worse we have played in 20 years?? wow

Its the gap between what we expect and what we're given that leads to dissapointment.

Imagine if he doesn't do badly. Imagine if we consistently get from 7th to 13th in the Premier League. But the football isn't exciting (and it doesn't become exciting after he makes all his changes in players, style and methodology). We'll be where we always wanted to be. And miserable.

It's almost unavoidable if you do well consistently, and by well I mean regular midtable finishes.

It was suppose to be the promised land Babs. Maybe we could ask the premier league to relegate us if we're not capable of it ourselves.

But suppose your wife took you to ilfracombe every year and you were board stupid... and then she says lets spend all our anoversary savings on buying a little place in ilfracombe....etc

It's up to the owners, it can be the promised land if they invest in us.  If they don't they we'll all just get fed up of finished between 7th and 14th eventually.

What a season Burnley have had too, bet you've loved every minute. Fair play to Dyche for achieving that on his budget, which makes me wonder what he would be like with a respectable budget to play with. Making the financial jump for the first time has been known to ruin managers in the past and attempting to bring Dyche to Leicester could be a slight concern in this regard. I do however believe that Europe will ruin you next season, pretty glad we avoided it to be honest. 

Don't be concerned - no way will Dyche be going to Leicester any time soon...if ever

A la Southampton, Stoke and West Brom - and look where they are now!

It happens to every team, only those who have enough money to continually buy the very best players can escape it.

Fixed it for you.

Best get sorting our options out. My source says he's gone at the end of the season. I would expect the papers to be on it soon. Seems it's not a closely guarded secret you would expect.

[themightyfin]

Yup so it seems. Just hope we have someone lined up.

[Tuna]

Interesting, but not the least bit surprised. Doubt our owners have been impressed with our recent home performances, or our meek surrender of a Europa League place.

[STUHILL]

Marco Silva for me then if true. Available, young, ambitious and experience in the Prem. 

 

It really is a near exact copy of what happened to Puel at Southampton/ He needs to reevaluate his methods and maybe learn to be more flexible. 

[st albans fox]

the players must know - no way will they be motivated to perform at palace. maybe home to wet spam they may care (cos its at home) and they must be motivated to try and beat arsenal and spurs at Wembley so we could still get another few points

[Wymsey]

Considering he's had no pre-season and came in early-October, think we could've gone further if he arrived in the summer imo.

He probably knows the performances have been dull at times, but the team has been unlucky in other periods (such as Burnley away).

I think the Burnley game was the one where the owners decided enough was enough.

If the players must know surely they'd be motivated to perform for any potential new managers watching on

 

Personally regardless whether they know or not for me i've said for the last few weeks I struggle to see us getting many more points and I think we'll finish 10th.

never seen it happen like that. always seems to be the opposite whilst the 'dead man walking' hasn't yet walked

Think I'd take a punt, his style would suit us.

He was very highly thought of before the whole Everton saga derailed that.

 

I think we would be the perfect club for him right now too. He needs to rebuild his reputation.

 

He knows the league and more importantly, probably knows quite a lot about us. Everything just seems logical about this kind of appointment. 

 

I'm sure people will start spouting off names such as Wenger or Ancelotti again but realistically, this could be a top appointment for us.

Looks like Van Gaal then

More like fan power. Seems our owners are not happy so many fans are not happy with him. Was also told it's not the players. Perhaps they spend time on here.

[HighPeakFox]

How much of this is fact, how much is 'fact', and how much is speculation please?

Yeah but we all end up with clapped out old bangers eventually.
