I was critical of OC concerning his lack of tactical ability, but he was a great man motivator and gave us the best football this century.
I was critical of the Board for signing BL it was a retreat into the Claret safety net, and a failure to continue with the young ambitious manager agenda.
I was critical of EH because he didn't appear to be able to deal with senior players, and his obssession with signing wingers, but he did make some good signings, Ings being the pick.
I was critical of SD because I saw him as lacking adaptability, and tactical vision, but of course his innate conservatism and adherence to the basics have also been his defining strength.
Of all these managers I believe OC gave us the best football but SD the most success, but for me although I'm sure we would at least initially take a bit of a tumble, I still think he should move on if he is ever to gain the recognition he deserves.
Howe - would that be the senior players who were rumoured to have stabbed Laws in the back or caused unrest in the dressing room?
You've also had an obsession with wingers at one point.
I'm still waiting for you to give us a breakdown of your idea of the perfect squad composition.
As for Dyche, you're critical about pretty much everything hes done, but he's moved the club forward in various aspects every season, whether its on or off the field.
As for recognition he deserves, he's getting that with us, because he's very well regarded outside of Burnley and the work he's done is quoted often by pundits and the media alike as an example to follow.
What you really want is a new manager to dictate to via social media, you couldn't give a turd what Dyche does after he leaves Burnley.
