100% this.

 

On paper I can totally understand appointing Dyche, even if I don't like the pick. But to go from Rodgers and Maresca to Cooper then to RVN and now to Dyche... they don't have a clue. 

and this is why the club is in such a mess, such a scattergun approach, 

appointing Dyche would be a total polor opposite to who weve been going for previous in terms of managers and players; 

im pretty sure the clubs youth teams have been playing a certain way too, the more possession based way etc, 

 

so appointing someone like Dyche as you said when we've been going for a certain type just feels incredibly odd

but then again clubs a mess and top doesnt give a ****

I get the feeling with the Cooper appointment we possibly didn’t have many concrete options.

 

And we were clearly in a different situation; we couldn’t expect to play champagne football last season, so going for the ‘hard working, hard to beat’ style manager makes some sense.

 

This time round - although we might be expected to challenge at the top end of the league… if we start on minus 6 or 8, that makes things a little trickier.

 

And you know - we have no idea what the squad will look like when the season kicks off.

 

So maybe mid-table safety… plays offs at a push, is the boards more realistic hopes/expectations for this coming season - and there might be a feeling that once again a pragmatic decision in terms of results first over desired ‘team style’ has to be made.

I heard Dyche on talksport earlier today, with Rick Astley of all people, never gonna give you up! I have greatly disliked Dyche in the recent past… But I think he’s the short term tonic we need. A man with the bollocks to ruffle a few feathers, c’mon how many wanted Pearson!? 
 

I’m sorry to those Leicester fans who want sexy, I get , I do, because I am also tempted. I am so, so tempted by a mysterious foreign manager that plays “attractive” football. But I’m sorry, results are the business that we are in right now, we just need results. 
 

So bored of checking Google 18 times a day praying there’s been some movement. Peace

we did.....Corberan, he was interested in the position(i think) but the club didnt want to pay the 3/4mil release clause,

yet we spunked over £27mil on Skipp and Ayew

 

and Corberan has gone Valencia now and did a decent job in his 4/5 months there so far

Right, people. We are going round and round in circles. If the club have shutdown until 1st July, we should too.

 

Dyche, Röhl, Dyche, Röhl, Dyche

It's time to Rohl the Dyche

Has any top tier source confirmed we’re looking at both? Remember the rumours from TalkSport, BTG etc. about Martin were proven false. Nixon has got a lot wrong about us as well, like Lath. Only recent claim he got right was Ayew.  
 

The previous summer, it was clear Cooper, Corberan and Potter were our top 3 choices. This time, there has been no leaks from the club so media are filling the void with speculation. Reading Nixon’s piece, he’s careful about how he discusses Dyche and doesn’t suggest confidence. Let’s see who is appointed and then it’s fair game.

What being put off by promotion ,through the play offs?

thats a massive assumption, pretty sure Luton fans thought theyd be in and around the play offs too

Problem is that the fans seem quite critical of the Maresca/Pep/ Potter technical style. As much as I quite like it, it feels our fans would prefer a "blood and guts" more direct style. 

 

With this in mind, you can't really blame them for switching to a different lane

thing is you can have both styles, 

and the way the club sets up from youth level in playing possession based football and being comfortable on the football would be out the window

So two separate posters on here saying it's done and dusted for Rohl and an article for the Sun from a journo attempting to generate clicks saying it's Dyche.

Nixon doesn't say its Dyche, just that he is favourite.

Yes we beat them 2-1 great day. Pissing it down all trains cancelled because of flooding but Maguire got sent off and Wes came on and scored winner. Brilliant day. Sorry complety off topic.

Right, so our board is looking at Rohl and Dyche at the same time?

Just confirms to me they're utterly clueless, two coaches who couldn't be more different from each other. Our board genuinely doesn't know what they want themselves. 

While on the face of it you're correct that they seem worlds apart, there's no harm speaking to varying managers about the job and how they would operate.  They might learn something.
