It's weird how many people hate the man who laid the foundations for our current success.

Will Celtic confirm they offered him the job ? Perhaps it might be someday we'd like you to manage Celtic and horseface has spun it.

No, he was definitely offered it that summer and he definitely wanted to accept it and his wife put her foot down. I do know that for certain.

I'm pretty sure Dyche came in when those foundations were there. Did you miss our first season in the premier league?

Dyche came in 3 seasons later when those foundations had been well and truly rocked. How many players from the Coyle era did Dyche find at Burnley?

With your reasoning Stan Ternent and Steve Cotterill laid the foundations for Coyle.

I love the fact posters still don’t understand you :lol:

Dyche had to start over from scratch.

The board were rabbits in the headlights from May 2009 to well into Eddie Howes time here.

Set for 10 years said uncle Barry :lol:

You just need to look at the quality and price of the players when Dyche came in as opposed to when Coyle came in. Without the premier league money there's no way we could have sustained the wages that we did or the quality of player. We wouldn't have been able to spend a million quid on a relatively untested 21 year old striker for instance.

You just need to look at the accounts for proof. Coyle's first season we had wages of under £10m, Dyche's first season they were 50% higher. It takes nothing away from Dyche but without that promotion from Coyle there's a very good chance we would have been relegated shortly after.
