Think when they were taken over by Americans who have saddled them with debt it was the beginning of their decline.

Done an unbelievable job with a fraction of the resources of the likes of Howe or Lampard.

They love Dyche, there’s even a pub named after him near to Turf Moor. 

As others have said, the sacking is really bad timing - when they were relegated from the PL last time he brought them straight up. No reason to suppose that he couldn’t do the same should they get relegated again.

Tragedy was that he had to sell his main striker in Chris Woods and that left them very lightweight up top.

I think it’s a real shame but should Nige walk away I’d love to see Dyche manage us.

Bizarrely they’ve sacked the whole team - Dyche, Ian Woan, Steve Stone and Billy Mercer (who was goalkeeping coach).

That usually happens when a manager gets sacked, the backroom staff go with him. The new guy will want his own people in.

Dyche did a fantastic job at Burnley but all good things come to an end and I believe he had run his course in Lancashire.

Will be interesting to see where he rolls up next.He will probably be hoping for a slightly easier gig than the perennial struggles of a Burnley type club who have been fighting way above there weight for sometime.

Could he find his way to Everton perhaps ?

Interesting and odd timing really. Surely Lampard will be given at least next season. And NP gone and Dyce in. Yes sounds nice. But he will still have the current still have the current squad. Which is not good enough and no transfer money in the summer. Would it make a difference. 

Mmmmmmmm not sure. Wonder if SL tempted .

If we’re the best offer he gets, I’d be flabbergasted.

Quick, get rid of Pearson and bring him in!

If you think he would be remotely interested in taking us over I genuinely worry for your sanity.

Plus he never fails to take the opportunity to say how poorly treated he was here, by both the medical team & supporters.

Klopp is as likely to arrive in BS3 as him.

This is a perfect example of what can happens when a club gets taken over by new owners - in Burnley’s case a bunch of Americans. They’ve saddled Burnley with debts and the risk of losing PL income is frightening them.

If SL ever sold up the same could happen to us.

And losing Wood, after Newcastle triggered his release clause was the death knell for Premiership survival.

I'm surprised, because retaining Dyche would give them a great chance to bounce straight back up. He's done it once already. And got them into Europe. Burnley should build a statue to commemorate his achievements.

Indeed, the most successful manager in their history I understand. He’s also stayed loyal when arguably bigger jobs can knocking. I’m not surprised the fans are unhappy, I am sure we’d be the same in their position.

Could’ve understood it if they lost to Everton. They beat them and despite losing to Norwich they still have a favourable run of games compared to Everton’s. As someone said, I’d happily take him at the Gate but his playing days here and the fact he’ll likely have better offers, I’d say it’s very unlikely

My concern would be in Burnley striker Barnes goes down injured and he is forced to enquire as to his well being.

Ashley are you okay?

Are you okay?

Are you okay, Ashley?

Thinking about it, imagine if that injury was caused from a foul by Kirt Zuoma. That would be the criminal element covered as well.

We peaked at 7th thanks to Sean who did an amazing job with relatively little backing. I wonder where we will bottom out?

I'm surprised too given the length of his outstanding contract, must have cost them a bit. I thought they'd give him a chance to bounce us back like last time.

Strange decision, seeing that they have been on the brink all season. Way too late to save them now. Only 4 wins so no great surprise if they are planning for next season as I think they have a large number (12/15) players out of contract in the summer. Tough times ahead, particularly with the large debt loaded onto the club by the new owners.

He's done an amazing job at Burnley.

Keeping them in the bottom half of the Premier League is a feat in itself nowadays. Losing Wood was a big loss for them.

I'm not surprised to hear he was critical of his time here. The feeling was mutual  considering we paid a lot of money for him.

We made the naive mistake of buying in three players from an excellent Chesterfield team , Mercer, Holland and Dyche who had overperformed and , more poignantly, overplayed the previous season. 
They all arrived carrying injuries and despite their quality and the logic of our transfer policy, as this is City, it all went chest up. 
A was a big disappointment for all parties.

Yes SD is quoted that being at Bristol City was the unhappiest period of his career

I would suspect that their chosen replacement has said "Yes".

Wanted Kevin Davies as well didn’t we?

Mercer arrived in 1999 under Pulis I thought, unsure about Holland but think Dyche predated them both.

Unsure what went wrong with Dyche here, I know that he had a reasonable career after leaving us with Millwall and Watford at Championship level.

He met with club captain before leaving the ground for the last time and he said

Ben, the two of us need look no more
We both found what we were looking for
With a friend to call my own
I'll never be alone
And you my friend will see
You've got a friend in me
(You've got a friend in me)
