Think sometimes we as fans forget we have no clue what things are like behind the scenes.

Like with Koeman under us, he absolutely had to go. Not saying that's the case with Dyche, but its a consideration that's key that we have no judgement on.

A more affable manager/man defo gets the benefit of the doubt with the run of results he has had there. Sounds like he lost the dressing room and I don't think it takes much to get on the wrong side of Edu and Fatty Boom Boom so he was done for.

Pereira will do exactly what he did at Wolves - Galvanise the squad into pulling handily clear of the relegation places, give everyone the confidence that the Good Times (TM) are back and then have a heinous start to next season before sacking him in Jan to be replaced by Marco Silva, who will probably have just been sacked by United or something mad like that.

That would depend on the owner selling the best players, and not replacing them, as happened Wolves last year.

This was all being said before Forest hired him and proved it wrong.

There’ll be another team in need of battling relegation in the future or trying to get promoted and he’ll get employed again if he wants to.

I don't think so, you know.

I said when he was appointed that I found it weird because the notion of The Relegation Firefighter seemed (correctly, IMO) to have been consigned to the bin. Fatty, as it turns out, was *never* going to be content with simply avoiding the drop, and so he thought better of his recruitment mistake even though the results were objectively fine, all told.

I can honestly see him doing a Mark Hughes, falling off the radar for a bit and surfacing somewhere mad like Exeter.

I don't think there will be.

He's failed massively with a European quality squad.

I can't see anybody trusting him to keep them safe now.

Back to talkSPORT and doing Uber Eats adverts with Pardew and Allardyce I think for this 🤡
