Crystal Palace contact Burnley over Dyche compensation fee

[Silkyskills1]

really ?

Changed his tactics, got it horribly wrong. Swansea were diabolical, offered nothing at all.

I genuinely think that Swansea's performance was the worst I've seen in the Championship play-off final. They were clueless, wound up at the start of the match and I think the final statistics showed they didn't have one effort on target. Lucky for those that couldn't attend because that will be one hell of a bloody miserable journey home.

Seems like Palace are after Nuno, good news for us, can't see SD jumping ship to be second choice.

[Untinted Glasses]

Knowing the way Sean likes to send “messages” it is likely that only he and his agent know his intentions. If he can wrangle a payrise out of this (in the post Covid era where wages are set to dive), and if he can secure promises to spend ‘x’ on players, that would be an incredible piece of negotiation.

He may like Palace, but it can be a revolving door, better than some, but 16th in February is likely to make the board have an itchy trigger finger, let alone 20th. A big risk of enforced early retirement at this level given he is already financially secure for life.

and Burnley wasn't a revolving door until Dyche arrived ? 6 managers in 2 years

16/10/2012 - 30/10/2012 Terry Pashley
16/01/2011 - 11/10/2012 Eddie Howe
13/01/2010 - 29/12/2010 Brian Laws
10/01/2010 - 31/01/2010 Martin Dobson
07/01/2010 - 11/01/2010 Steve Davis
05/01/2010 Owen Coyle

Turning to the topic at hand Sean's contract, he is probably the one person we can ill afford to lose, players we can replace not easily but it can be done, finding a replacement for SD is another matter entirely, therefore if he's looking for a salary increase we should stretch the budget as much as we can to keep him happy.

If he’s looking for a salary increase he can go for me. He’s already extremely well paid. How he has the gall to criticise the board for not receiving enough money but seemingly gets pay increases/ bonuses on a regular basis disgusts me.

I can't believe we only gave Davis one game. Talk about an itchy trigger finger.

Lucky for those that couldn't attend because that will be one hell of a bloody miserable journey home.

Swansea had overachieved during the regular season on a restricted budget to even finish in the play-off places, and came up against a team with far better quality players which had scored 23 more goals than them during the season.

To put it another way, going into the play-off Final how many of the Swansea players would have been on Burnley's radar?

Thank god you’re not running things.

The same as Keith Millen had at Crytal Palace (2 actually) but just making it like for like. If we are going to say Palace have a revolving door, then we do to. People tend to be unbelievably biased. Fair enough it's a Burnley supporters board but just jump the fence occasionally and have look back over before committing to a post. Lets have it real

Just seen on twitter that Steve Cooper and Swansea staff compo would be 4.5m if other clubs want them.

Makes Dyche's look a bargain.

Dyche to WBA 80/1 my £10 has been placed.

I thought the revolving door comment was harsh on Palace until I looked at their managerial history

It’s taken me a few days to see the responses to my calling Palace a “revolving door”. I particularly like the reference further up this thread to Martin Dobson proving we are similar

Some of the departures were very harsh. Holloway got 8 games after promotion. De Boer hadn’t even unpacked his suitcase. Pulis ended up in dispute with them. Pardew had a dodgy 2016 but still wasn’t given a full season after a FA Cup Final to turn it around. Allerdyce seemed to go of his own accord. Warnock’s second stint lasted no time at all.

There seems to be a lot of manager turnover under the current owners compared to their earlier history, even if Roy has lasted a while. They may well be a fantastically run club, but I was simply observing that I can see why Dyche would be cautious, if it went wrong there isn’t a huge list of PL clubs wanting a Dyche style manager.

Millen was never really under any serious consideration for the vacancy anyway, he took the reins over in a stand-in capacity, I even think whilst he was in charge the club were sounding other people out.

Sky linking Nuno with Palace job. I’d have thought he was better off at Wolves.
I also thought he chucked that job because he was missing his family back in Portugal.

[dsr]

The Palace fans think that Nuno is going to Everton and is using them as a bargaining piece.

Though IMO Sean Dyche is a fair bit less likely to go when he knows he isn't first choice. Being the man they didn't really want is not good for job security. He had a slow start at Burnley, and if he makes a similar slow start at Palace when he isn't the man they wanted in the first place - would they sack him quite quickly?

He's actually being linked with villa as well if smith doesn't get off to a good start but you would logically assume by then he'd already be in position somewhere else.

[minnieclaret]

The Brexit problem that is delaying? Lage being installed at Wolves could make top British managers more valuable in future.

[Vegas Claret]

looks nailed on it's going to be Nuno

Build a statue into the contract and a road name and he'll sign for life!

Isn't the truth that he was sacked by Wolves but mutual consent was agreed to be announced as it is a better look for him, the club and the odious agent who calls the shots at the club.

exactly, given boat loads of cash and hasn't pulled up any trees tbh, missed Jiminez massively though

[Chester Perry]

You should only sack someone if you have a replacement lined up that is in line with your strategy and you have verified that they are getable within operational constraints - which is not what we are witnessing from Wolves at the moment. Doesn't mean he wasn't sacked and reports said that nearly happened earlier in the year. Which only serves to confuse about the succession planning at Wolves

Didn't they have Lage lined up already?

[Chester Perry]

Didn't they have Lage lined up already?

and the constraints of employing overseas managers is providing them with significant hurdles to overcome in this particular instance - these are things they should have considered is my point

EDIT having won the battle with the FA this is looking more considered
