5-Live and the stench of jealousy

To be fair, MON used to talk us down a lot. Remarks about walking potential signings backwards out of the tunnel at Filbo, (understandable though) and how we were always the underdog, even when we were fooking fantastic. He just.didn't sound like a whinge like Dyche. And he certainly didn't slag off others. (Not that I remember anyway)

Come on, you're really analysing our managers comments so heavily? I'm sure should trawl through Saint Nigel's comments and find a few that I could irritate myself with.

It is the fact he mentions it after every game and hasn't stopped saying it since promoted

I wouldn't take it personally. Most fans on here are pleased for Burnley. I think there was a good rapour with the visiting fans on this site, but after we beat you at your place, Dyche did not endear himself with his remarks. If you can find us any footage of Nigel having a dig at your club, then fair does, but you won't!

I've never heard Nigel so complimentary about a team as he has been about Burnley, sadly Mr Dyche seemed to praise us though gritted teeth whilst chucking out a load of excuses.

 

Hey ho, you lot deserve it and from what I've seen of your fans on here and your boards you have mostly been sound.

Nigel gets on with it, if we've lost it's the players fault and no one else's.

See what you've made me do!

 

That was without trying, from Charlton earlier in the season. All managers do it, I can't understand why it annoys you so much.

 

"There were certain things we were a bit disappointed with," said Nigel Pearson, the Leicester manager.

"Unfortunately the talking points are not the players.

Agreed, I was one of the many hundreds of fans who applauded your coaches out of Burnley.

Those comments from him were fully justified though  :thumbup:

I'm pretty sure he would have brought it out had they lost to Yeovil.

 

"We've had to work with a small budget and they have spent a pound note"  lol

Burnley and Leicester City rewarded for continuity, says Clarets boss

Sean Dyche celebrates Burnley's promotion with the fans

 Comments (0)

BURNLEY and Leicester City will both be playing in the Barclays Premier League next year and Clarets manager Sean Dyche insists the promoted duo have been rewarded for their faith in continuity.

Dyche's men defeated Wigan at Turf Moor on Monday to give them an unassailable lead over third-placed Derby County.

They have followed in the footsteps of the table-topping Foxes, who can secure the Sky Bet Championship title with victory at Bolton on Tuesday night.

The pair have both been models of consistency this year, each using a league-fewest 23 players throughout the campaign to achieve their goals.

Pearson is also the division's longest-serving manager, having been appointed in November 2011, while Dyche is sixth on the list following his arrival in east Lancashire in October 2012.

And in a sport where constant change in pursuit of instant success is all too prevalent, the Burnley manager believes the two teams going up automatically from the second tier are examples of patience paying off.

"I think Nigel has done an incredible job," said Dyche.

"He was questioned there last season at Leicester and possibly there's a forward-thinking motion from different people that if you give people time they can do a good job.

"I was questioned last year, quite openly here about our finish. I thought it was a great finish, 11th; I thought it was a fantastic finish because I knew what was going on behind the scenes, the work that was being done.

"We've changed a lot here over 18 months behind the scenes and I'm pleased to say a lot of it has worked."

The Clarets' ascent into the top tier was one few people foresaw at the beginning of this campaign, particularly when striker Charlie Austin, who had grabbed 28 goals in the previous season, was sold to QPR just two days before Burnley's opening fixture.

The board explained that the sale of Austin to a big-spending divisional rival was needed to balance the books, with the Clarets no longer able to rely on the Premier League parachute paymentsicon1.png accrued since their 2009-10 season in the top flight.

It was a timely dose of realism which Dyche thinks helped the club's fans rally behind those remaining at Turf Moor.

"A year ago we were looking over our shoulder when we finished 11th," the former Watford manager explained.

"That was only the fourth or fifth time in 15 seasons the club had finished in the top half of the table.

"The biggest thing that happened to us as a group was the board came out at the start of the season and told a few positive realities about the club. That allowed us more of a freedom to work.

"It balanced and realigned the expectation here because I think it had gone out of kilter, not in a bad way.

"That realignment gave the players the mentality to build this one-club mentality with the supporters. It's been absolutely evident that as the season's grown so has that bond with the players.

"It just goes to show if you get the positives from both sides it's a positive thing."

In Austin's absence, Sam Vokes and Danny Ings have formed a lethal partnership at the head of Burnley's attack to maintain the club's position in the top three, where they have remained since early September.

Ings was named Championship Player of the Year, has earned England Under-21 call-ups and has scored 25 times, the most recent goal ending a 35-year wait for a win over bitter rivals Blackburn.

However, it is 21-goal Vokes, a 24-year-old Welsh international who has already played for seven other clubs, who has really impressed his manager with his development over the course of the season.

"Two days before the season Charlie Austin got sold and there were big question marks," Dyche admitted.

"(But) Sam Vokes has been amazing; he's been the player who has developed most this season. And Danny Ings has come to the fore and is a tremendously talented young man."

Exactly.  He does say ti about everyone.  So why have quite a lot of you on here taken it personally as if he's having a go at Leicester?

As was Heaton's against Brighton, but Dyche said it, so it's an excuse. As long as I know the rules!   :)  :)  :)

 

Can you please delete this bit from the above post, as it doesn't seem to fit within this thread.

Congrats Burnley,

 

As for Dyche, he's done a fantastic job and I'm really pleased for him after being poorly treated at Watford. The comments after the Leicester game were slightly bitter but that's football.

 

See you next season. :thumbup:

You've had to go back to last calendar year to find that.
