No formation changes would have done anything than lose the game. Too many players having a terrible day at the office. some of the stray passing was truly dreadful. It was an awful display from us but, as difficult as it is to watch, it happens.
We were utter crap though.

Re: Dyche!
I'm 49 and other than a couple of half seasons the football has been crap. I watch this bloke manage Burnley and beat the best in the Premier League on a regular basis.

Lets hope they've had the confidence boost/kick up the arse to getting them playing like we all know they can. This has to be their last chance before the other 2 get a crack. It must be so deflating for Vydra and Jrod

Re: Toothless
If Dyche doesn’t fancy Vydra and Jay isn’t fit then he needs to change the formation. Them two clowns up front aren’t up to it as a pairing at the moment. Just play one of them up top and put another body in midfield to allow the wingers a bit more freedom. They are scared to death to go forward in...
