Re: How can we attract new players/signings?

This window we can’t offer anything really. As has been said anyone at a club in the top half of the championship won’t want to come as they may be in the prem next season if they stay put, and players from abroad won’t come just to get a relegation on their CV. Players abroad will probably want to ...

No I mean what I said. The facts support this. He offers far more than the other players I mentioned which answered your original quote.

Issue with Fulham is that they are very inconsistent. Same with Bournemouth, hence why rovers are in the mix.
Hopefully Rovers will stay down and we can beat them to promotion next season!

It's a bit of a non starter as the club won't pay all that money to sack him. Easy in hindsight but the 4 year extension is looking crazy right now.
And thats the problem. Dyche knows he has the most secure job in all of football.
