Didn’t he do poorly at Burnley aswell. He finished mid table and left because he was home sick. I think Dyche took over from and got Burnley promoted with a fraction of the funds Howe had at Bournemouth. He is over hyped because he plays nice football and he is English. Dyche is a much better manager in my opinion, getting Burnley to Europe is a great achievement given the resources. His teams concede a hatful of goals, he wastes millions and got a team relegated. Then walked away instead of trusting his abilities to get them back up. No thanks Eddie Howe left Burnley because of the death of his mother after a short illness.

I agree. I don't think there's any chance of us getting Dyche as he has no reason to move and I doubt we could provide an adequate incentive to him or Burnley to let him go. So Howe is the best option to my mind. I would like Dyche and we may have a chance. The new owners bought the club with the club's money so Burnley are now saddled with a load of debt. How much will Dyche have to spend and what his relationship like with the owners? Yes we don't spend much either but it is not impossible that Dyche is fed up and fancies coming south.

Edited by Willo (21 Mar 2021 12.21am) Anyone losing their mother would find it really difficult and citing personal reasons to leave would always be respected. I’m not judging him on this. However, he left Burnley on 12th October 2012 and joined Bournemouth on 14th. We ain’t going to get Dyche, but that doesn’t mean we should settle for a reject instead. He failed at Burnley where Dyche succeeded. He got Bournemouth relegated and then walked away when he could have stayed like Dyche, Farke, Parker and got promoted back to the prem. I hate managers who fail in the prem and then instead of taking a step back to earn there strips, they think they should walk into another prem job. Wilder, Howe, Wagner, Hughes, Bruce.....etc Why don’t we do something which is not Palace and follow a modal of Southampton/Brighton and do some actual research/scouting. FdB didn’t work out, but that doesn’t mean we should NEVER go for an international manager ever again. We all want to move forward and push up the league. So why don’t identify a winner and go after him/her instead of appointing a loser?

One the one hand I would like Fulham to stay up. On the other hand if they do Scott Parker will not be coming to us! Mind you in some ways it would be neat to have three SPs - Selhurst Park, Steve Parrish, Scott Parker. But unfortunately I can see Eddie Howe coming so he better be a lot, lot better than I currently think he is! I’d like to think that if Fulham did go down and we appointed Scott Parker, then he may be able to attract with him a few of the better Fulham players. We desperately need a freshen up and they do have some very good players who would want to stay at the top level.

I've been saying Rafa ever since he left Newcastle, I think if Steve was to really go after him he'd be our manager next season.

Article in todays Sunday Times - not looking for a payday and just wants to coach, preferably in the Premier League.

But let’s bring in a younger manager that is better and achieved more than the one we have got. We all want progression and that means recruiting better than what you have.

We desperately need a freshen up and they do have some very good players who would want to stay at the top level. Most of their better players are on loan - RLC, Lookman, Andersen, Maja, Areola and Aina - so we can go after them in the summer anyway. If I was Spuds I would be looking at Parker to takeover. He looks like someone who would thrive with a quality squad. We would need to overhaul our squad to play the way Fulham do and I don't think we'd have the budget.

If Parker is as good as you think he is, why with those quality players have they been in the bottom 3 most of the season and relegation most likely?

Fair point ,but think he and team took a while to adapt to the premiership, but they have adjusted better now albeit a bit late.
