It will become one of those do you remember where you were moments.
I'll never forget this morning, I can remember where I was for a few major events and this one will for ever be etched in my memory.
For the record sat at home just checked in to Up the Clarets whilst watching news.

I was at the Brampton roundabout on the A69 east of Carlisle, driving home from my holiday in Northumberland. I heard it on the Gold Radio 11 o'clock news.

Re: It will become one of those do you remember where you were moments.
Alarm went off at 6am ready to get up and take our daughter to Epcot (on holiday in Florida). I pick the phone up to check if I had any ‘UK time’ WhatsApp messages and my phone is absolutely bombarded with notifications from friends and family. Awful start to what has proven (so far) to be a lovely day!

Text message from a Leeds supporting mate followed by a couple of WhatsApp messages.
I was sat in my car waiting to go out for the day and doing my ITV 7. That turned out to be worse than the news.

Re: It will become one of those do you remember where you were moments.
I’d been outside with the kids and walked into the kitchen to check my phone charging to see a text off a rovers mate asking who’s getting the job then. Quickly followed by one off a Leeds mate and my heart sank… then ping ping ping messages galore.

Re: It will become one of those do you remember where you were moments.
Out for my 2 hour morning walk and around 10.40? as I got close to home a car screeched to a halt next to me and a guy I know wound the window down and asked had I'd heard the news? I honestly had to double check it wasn't April 1st. Shocked doesn't describe it, especially as we'd been discussing exactly this at Norwich last weekend and nobody thought there was even the remotest chance of it.

Re: It will become one of those do you remember where you were moments.
Half way through an "" all you can eat"" breakfast at a pub in Matlock.
I was considering whether to fold my sausages in the toast slices or perhaps to eat them separately. I'd just asked the charming, generously built young waitress for some extra butter portions when my daughter messaged the news.

Eating my lunch watching the mid-day news on BBC 1 .Phone hasn't stopped ringing since...by no means all Burnley fans .My Burnley mates were nonplussed and most of the opposition were gobsmacked .Pace is clearly desperate .I fear for our future .seventy years a claret and I can't remember feeling so bad .I've seen some terrible Board decisions in my time and one very close run thing but I can't remember feeling like this .How bad are things if he needs to take a gamble like this ?

I saw it first on t'internet, but if I can be literal, I heard it first a couple of hours ago while sitting at a bus stop in Milwaukee and a random American bloke saw the badge on my coat and told me he thought Dyche didn't deserve it.

Walking up Pendle with my lad. The phone rang and my wife told me. At first, I thought she was taking the mick. I had to look on Sky Sports News. Our lad was heartbroken. He's only 13 and Dyche is all he's ever known.

Re: It will become one of those do you remember where you were moments.
I think I’m still recovering from the shock. I was sad when Stan left and hugely disappointed when Coyle bailed (though unlike many on here I was far from heartbroken, as by then I thought he’d been found out), that was more how many went with him… this one was the end of an era. I cannot say I ever really took to Sean Dyche after the first heady days, but I thouroughly respected him. Only this season for me has it become apparent that he often put his mental capacity to plan ahead as more important than what he saw unfolding before his eyes. The unbalance of our team had been found out and time and time again he refused to see it. He kept faith with his midfielders, because he realised it was his need for an attacking left that made them nervous about losing the ball in advanced positions; but until recently did nothing to rectify that defensive frailty. I didn’t like SD in the end, but I still respected him. The coming weeks will tell me if that continued respect was due.

Re: It will become one of those do you remember where you were moments.
I’m not sure it is that important in the general scheme of things. I remember clearly where I was when Diana died and 911. I know where I was when Dyche got fired but it’s only football, not life or death. And don’t forget, in this crazy world of Premier league football his pay off probably amounts to what most of us would earn if we lived for four lifetimes.
