I really like Sean Dyche. Top bloke and doing a wonderful job at Burnley, did a good job at Watford before wrongly being sacked.... I can't recall any signs of expansive attacking football though.
Just mentioning it as it seems over the last season and a bit that a lot of our fans want entertaining, expansive football.
If there was a poll put up asking if people wanted Dyche, I bet a lot of fans who said "Results aren't everything, I want to be entertained" would vote for him. A bit hypocritical in my opinion.

I can see the return of Pards. Is available, knows the Premiership, has inspired teams in the past, has his failings and faults, but don't we all. Could the fanbase accept his return?
I can’t stand the man. But right now, for a maximum of 12 months, I’d take him.
There are better options though.
**** hell LTL
I know mate. That's how much confidence I have in the current set-up, I'm afraid.
What they both do though is create cohesive team units. That's what we're so desperately lacking at the moment.
Are you really saying people are hypocrites even though they haven't even said anything?
Oh I agree, just following flts point about wanting attacking football then wanting Dyche.
It was the main criticism of Claude wasn't it?
Claude's teams didn't quite have the physical fight of a Dyche/Houghton team I don't think. They showed it on occasion, but it wasn't an identity. It's not my favoured route, much like Pards (and someone like Pards isn't a long term solution LIKE SILVA WOULD HAVE BEEN LES), but it's a way out of the current malaise.
I haven't put yes or no. It could be the players as Puel had the same problem, but the players are individually of a decent standard, so could a different manager get more out of them? Probably. I always thought we should have given Puel a second season...apart from the Cup, we weren't entertained, but we could have built for this season rather than start all over again. So there is the quandary....is MP2 so bad that we need further upheaval because it couldn't be worse? Is he ok, but has the wrong players for his style? Does that mean he is a poor manager in itself? And if we get another manager....who? And if we get a new one, will it be panic hiring to avoid relegation or is that stupid because we aren't going to be relegated and we need to look to the future? The questions go on and on.....the one thing that s clear is that something has to change and I would suggest new blood in the team up front....wins bring confidence to the team and fans.
So my answer to the OP really is that I wouldn't mind MP2 going (as I don't support him that much), but I need a crystal ball to see into the future before I make a final decision. Luckily I don't have to make that decision.

I agree Laces, however it makes me laugh that some (not you) would welcome a manager that plays for a result not entertainment.
No matter how much we say we want entertainment, results pay.
???? Lost me Roy.
I'm saying it would be hypocritical for someone who has moaned about the lack of entertainment from the last two managers to be wanting another manager who doesn't play entertaining football.
Something has to give. You can't sack players (although a few should certainly be dropped) and the removal of board members is usually something that moves at the same pace as a glacier so that won't help us this season, assuming that is even the problem (after all we still have no idea who Les was trying to get as manager or indeed which players he was trying to sign who subsequently rejected our overtures). That only leaves the manager and as we are now genuinely involved in a relegation scrap, fielding an uninspired team playing woefully tepid football, he simply has to go. Many names have been mentioned and at this point I view them all as an improvement on what we currently have.
I may be revealing something that
1. No-one knows
2. No-one knows and doesn't care
3. Everyone already knows
But I heard on Saturday evening from someone who knows (my brother has deep and close links to Argentina) that Pellegrino's wife and kids are still in Argentina: they haven't (and don't plan to) come to the UK.
Just seems a bit odd and if it were me I suspect it would affect my work.

I didn’t know, but I instantly believe everything you say, so it must be true. But presumably they didn’t want to move to Spain either?
