With passion and purpose. And in the Opposition half ! A good time to be a Claret. Well done Sean Dyche. May you become our longest serving manager !

He’s got a long way to go to beat Harry Potts.

He's got another 51 to do to reach half Harry's total but he'll have passed Albert Pickles by the end of this season.

SD has to be in charge for another 4 years (assuming we stay in the PL) to take over as number 2 from John Haworth and, assuming we stay in the Premier League, another 9 years after that to reach Harry Potts' total. I am factoring in the minimum 2 cup games we have to play each season into that. So if we win a few cup games or qualify for another European campaign that will reduce the time, as would getting relegated, of course.

In the modern age, Sean Dyche has surpassed any possible expectancy.

If he continues the improvements, he will remain and become folklore.

For what he has done at some time in the future we should name a stand after him or maybe even erect a statue

Although this sort of thing normally happens after someone passes away

So hopefully many many years in the future :D

The guy is a legend forever. The only two full seasons he’s had outside of the PL we were promoted twice.
It’s a long drive home Ian. Put tha feet up lad.

Consistency. We need to do that every game.

We need to aim to do that every game

But no one plays at their very best every game

Man City at Norwich for instance

The corner swung in by Westwood was so "Leighton James"; the cross by McNeil so "Willie Morgan"; the finishes by Wood were so "Paul Fletcher". Such wonderful memories of playing "in the opposition half" :D

Thank you Norwich... your "playing out from the back" was awesome to watch :lol:

That would be fitting, for sure. However, I do believe he is set to create a much bigger impression on Burnley and football and so warrant a much bigger marking of his achievement.

He had a mural, he has a pub....

He will always be s Burnley legend , but people getting a bit misty eyed over a 2-0 hone win over newly promoted relegations favs Norwich . Can you imagine this board if they’d mugged us 0-1?

The same Norwich that mugged one of the best teams in the World just a week previously?! ;)
