As Sam said on MOTD 'he's got the board where he wants them'

For Dyche to pitch himself for the job would require a full blown interview and we all know it would be leaked out that it’s happened.
I'd expect to see a copy of the power point presentation as evidence....
I'm sure someone can put one together and post on here for us all to see.

PS: Sean Dyche will still be Burnley's manager at the end of this season - and, who knows, maybe for "5 more years."

I kept quiet when Barton was here (about him), but come on - he loves the limelight. He'll say and do anything to get himself noticed. That tweet is simply copying what's already out there on social media.
It strongly looks to me like he knows absolutely naff all and is just going off what is in his tweet - a rumour. I bet he's texted SD to get more of an insight, prior to placing his bet. He did a job for us, but he'll always be a bellend.

Based on Mike Garlick's interview earlier in the week, the board are already planning on "5 more years" with Sean Dyche our manager - and the £100s of millions that Sean Dyche has brought to Burnley with 3 Premier League seasons will be factored into both continuing to build the club and reward Sean Dyche. That's how it is, that's how it should be.
No need for Sean to "prove" that he could get a better job elsewhere - he's already got the best job in Premier League football.

PS: I expect Sean Dyche to continue to say: "I'm flattered, but I've nothing to say, it's your story, not mine."

I can't see that being the same presentation. How's the agent going to answer the question "what players do you need?" or "how will you get the best out of Wayne/Gyfil/Ross?" or "How is it Michael Keane played so well for Burnley, but.....?"
The only questions agents are good for is "how much money/what terms?"

The idea that Big Sam would take it just till the end of the season doesn't stack up. He'd want longer than that.

This is my take on it, I don't have a mate who is ITK on all things Everton.
They want an interim manager for the rest of the season and were hoping Unsworth would fit the bill. He hasn't so they interviewed BFS to come in short term to kick start their season. Don't know if that's on BFS agenda or how much he would want to do it. It will give them 6-7 months to sound out a bigger name manager like Fonseca to come in on a 3 year deal in the summer. I would imagine that Dyche's representative has been touting him around hence the media interest. Dyche would not be a popular appointment with the fans and the last time he was in a relegation battle in PL he took us down. Does he have the credentials to currently manage Everton?
It is the right job move for him in terms of club size however it is not the right time for both parties.

Was that a relegation battle? It was relatively comfortable I thought. 2014/15 different story although we didn't really have the depth in the squad that maybe Everton do. Still don't think he's the man for the Everton.

Go on then, I may as well throw my thoughts in.
I have heard nothing concrete from any of my friends who are usually in the know. Seems like SD is desperate for it and they are not. He is not a sassy appointment for their fans. If they have big Russians involved with the financing, then they won't want him either.
If he does get it, it will be the most blatant case of his agent and the papers getting him the job along with the lack of other obvious targets.
Really can't see how they would choose SD over BFS. Just wouldn't make sense.
I hope I'm right, but who knows.

Sadly it seems that Dyche is pushing for the job though. In the Sunday Times match report he is quoted as saying, 'five years ago no one wanted me here. I wasn't the peoples champion'.
Why say that again, is he speaking out to the Everton fans who don't want him or just reminding the Burnley fans that loyalty works both ways, and if they had their way he would have been out of a job or not offered the job.
Either way that is a gross exaggeration and unfair to the vast majority of Burnley fans, but a good soundbite when you are trying to sell yourself in the media.

Almost feels like some fans are trying to demonise Dyche, in preparation for him going.

Good news
More importantly, if he isn't even considered for the Everton (or West Ham) jobs then he's probably going to be here for a while yet.

In our promotion season, I lost £230 in the second half of the season. Worth every penny. I lost my money last Saturday too.

Dominic King would appear to have good contacts within Everton
Was on Sunday Supplement yesterday when he was fairly sure it was going to be Dyche getting the job so why the change of mind less than 24 hours later - lets hope he has heard more to change his mind

If Allardyce will take Shakespeare as his assistant, that's one of the barriers to him getting the job gone. I don't think Everton wanted to employ Sammy Lee.

His best chance of a big club job (attendance and money) but his methods probably frighten the top sides even though he could be very successful over time.
His lack of experience with overseas players is a huge stumbling block.
I'm sure he'd love to try his hand with top players but he's going to have to make do with getting the best out of the talent he has here, talent which wants to improve hence its success.

My money would be on Dyche going to Arsenal at the end of the season when Wenger takes a back seat but would still be able to give advice as well as a nurturing role.

Me putting £100 on Dyche last night may be a bit down to it. The odds changed about an hour later.

Obviously nobody will believe me, but the latest from Goodison is that no decision has been made. Something has obviously changed between yesterday and this morning, hopefully that SD has decided to stay, or it could be that BFS is prepared to lower his demands.
Looks like it could run for another few days yet.

They've just taken that out of the 5 year interview he did for clarets player.
Lots of old Dyche quotes are surfacing again,journo's are just recycling old news trying to make it sound recent.

Other than Howe whose circumstances were somewhat unusual, who was the last Burnley manager who significantly enhanced their reputation after leaving us? I have gone back to WW2 and am struggling to come up with a name, with the possible exception of Alan Brown. SD be warned!

Alan Brown went to Sunderland and they were relegated for the first time in their history.
And Cliff Britton left us for Everton and then was relegated although only for a season

Sky sources: Sam Allardyce has held talks with Everton majority shareholder Farhad Moshiri about vacant manager position.
