    Grant McCann (Ex Hull) - maybe, he's just been sacked recently and knows how to get out of this league.

    @Prehab26 don't suppose you've heard any names bandied about? I suppose if they're sticking with the players profile for a manager, they'll be looking for a manager that has either managed at a higher level or a young hungry manager on the way up

    Overdue imo., but better late than never, he was a totally useless as a coach and had to go. OaU.

    <laugh> I wouldn't wish that on you guys. Did LJ deserve the sacking? Despite the thrashing yesterday you are there or thereabouts in the league

    Bloody hell. Surprised but the right call These defeats were recurring accidents waiting to happen He had time and opportunity to change but had a stubborn idea of how we should play even when it didn’t work. Fair play to him for sticking to his guns but it’s cost him. Massive decision to make now mind

    My first thought too. I hope not though. Nowt against him but not the sort of manager I think they sack Johnson for personally. They really need to come up with something very good now.

    I think the n t manager will not be anybody we know, but someone from France who the owners know.

    Just seen it. Surprised and a bit disappointed. We played good football however the away humiliations have been too much. Pressure on to get a suitable replacement.

    No market yet on SkyBet so I have no idea. Would McCann play the football KLD and Speakman want?

    Or even average, should be good enough to improve the situation. I think we over rated LJ by believing his patter and excusing the performance.

    Cheers for the reply mate. I can't imagine them pulling the trigger without having someone lined up. I hope so anyway <laugh>

    Anyone who doubted KLD's intent should be reassured now.

    I don't want a short term fix like Sam, Warnock, Keane, etc ...

    ... give Dyche a 10 year contract and he'll grind his way up the leagues by whatever means are necessary.

    Burnley are a club in a mess and Dyche must be shaking his head.

    He's the complete opposite of the endless garbage Johnson spouts ...

    ... "Get out there, work your nads off and don't let them take the piss!"
