Sean Dyche

[Simon Buttle]

I thought there might be a mention of Julian Brandt in here. No, it seems Baz got his Julians and Jagielkas mixed up on ToffeeTV.

There a few clubs in the mix for him including Arsenal that's probably why.

Now that is something I would like to see.

Need to change that for a spliff.

You said it would be ‘beyond a miracle’ if we stayed up at that exact moment.

So were you wrong then, or are you a hypocrite now.

Actually if you check your facts, which I know you’re not a fan of, the beyond a miracle comment was made in March. Dyche had been in charge for 6 weeks already when I said that. And we were indeed provided with a miracle, as we went into the final week of the season with survival out of our own hands, and a Newcastle goalkeeper saved our skins in a game that we had nothing to do with.

I remember the day he was hired and the photo of Dyche + Thelwell and thinking 'relegated'.

In retrospect we needed someone who didn't really give a flying one about what people thought, didn't have an owner meddling every step of the way, and who had skin like a rhinoceros.

In short: we lucked out.

Look at how Glasner mouthed off at Palace, Maresca at Chelsea, the implosion Slot was having earlier this season with Salah throwing his toys out the pram, Nuno early season with Nottingham Forest, Postecoglou later on. Potter aged about two decades in half a season at West Ham.

That was all child’s play in comparison to what was going on at Everton at the time, a mild puff of wind against the absolute cyclone that was engulfing us. But people didn’t like that he scratched his head during press conferences so I guess that undoes giving him any credit for literally facing off to all that pressure for 2 years without exploding at any point.

Had he failed it was the end of an institution of English football, certain administration, probable liquidation, people losing jobs, wages not getting paid, more points deductions the next season and perhaps another relegation, fire sale of all player assets. Forever remembered as the manager who took Everton down.

He risked his reputation for all of that on a club whose only fit strikers were Neil Maupay and Ellis Simms.

The footy gods would simply never allow us the opportunity to relegate him on the final game of the season. If something appears too good to be true, it probably is.

What reputation?

 

[Saint Domingo]

What reputation?

You want to be known forever as the man who took Everton down?

Thankfully Nicholas Pope stopped him from being that.

We got over the line. Other teams didn’t. Everyone was pleased at the outcome when the final whistle went after Bournemouth. Well almost everyone….

I was relieved. The miracle I was praying for happened, thanks to Saint Nick. #ThankYouGoalie

Said the other day Dyche has snubbed them, that report seems to reaffirm reason why;

• The 54-year-old is nevertheless said to be reluctant to take on a short-term role

No chance he was ever gonna risk the possibility of us relegating him on the final day. He’s far too much of a coward for that.

Nah I think it's more of a case he's thought "crap, I've just been shown up as not being able to work with talented players, best not show it again so soon"
