  1. Of course there was ale involved.... Dyche intimated that they would get down time. You reckon they went into town and drank ribena? You honestly think a manager slaps a player on the back of the head when completely sober? I'm actually giving Dyche the benefit of assuming ale was involved in order to act like David Brent. Id love to see half of you lot be ok about getting slapped on the back of the head by a manager in a public place. You'd be going to HR.
  2. A gag that went wrong? - the captains took the manager outside to pull him up.
  3. People trying to trivialise this are way off the mark. If you can quote the rules you can obey the rules.... Dyche is a disciplinarian but this isn't Tom Browns school days and he isn't strutting round with a cape and a cane. It may galvanise the squad - at least we hope so
  4. Never did get that font sorted
  5. In short he's toast. He's reliant on 100% buy in and respect from the players. When Alex Ferguson cut Beckhams eye with a boot his response was "get that stitched up"...... the bully knew his temper would have been the end of him if he wasn't a successful manager. For him he needed to be unapologetic even when wrong - otherwise he looks weak. Dyche doesn't have the credit in the bank to get away with this. Patterson by all accounts is a very popular lad with the players. The fact he's not been picked despite Godfrey being poor says it feels personal. David Brent levels of stupidity
  6. I'm guessing/hoping that our case will be 0-1 point deduction. absolute joke either way.
  7. Absolutely mind blowing. For one the manager was on the ale with the team.... he's got to be the standard bearer. Yeah fine - "have a few beers boys - been a good trip... bit of down time and get a bit merry" - he's got to be the one who represents the tone of the night. my reading of the situation @patto is that dyche got carried away, and got "accidentally" heavy handed in a way that stopped the players in their tracks.... otherwise why did Tarks and Coleman feel the need to standup for their teammate. One way or another Dyche apologising means he knew he'd fucked up... the fact that the players needed to prompt him to do it means his status has dropped. They will not have the same respect for him now.?
  8. I watched a podcast a while back where Chris long the ex Everton player said he was very bizarre in his treatment and consistency. I just want survival... I never got carried away with his good spell. I see a very limited manager who needs replacing.
  9. its quite clear that he didn't say that. its not very difficult to read this clearly.... 1. would dyche be ok with someone slapping him on the back of the head? 2. Would you have expected Joe Royle, Howard Kendall, Ancellotti to slap a players head? 3. Would such slap Coleman, Tarks, Pickford on the back of the head? the answer to all those questions is no. Dyche is bang out of order.
  10. Where did you find out the further info?
  11. I have never met a person who slaps a person on the back of the head as being anything other than an absolute prick. It's passive aggressive behaviour. Smacking someone on the back of the head is a snide way of asserting dominance, the person is testing boundaries or letting you know they are comfortable enough to try it on. Had a boss in work who used to do it and get his wedding ring to make contact.... absolute prick. I was early 20s - he did it to me and I lost my shit - the shock and sharp noise/impact... 6ft4 big bloke, I marched towards him like my legs didn't feel anything - pure jelly, hands felt like they weren't mine, I then stopped and walked away and told him "do not follow me" in a high pitched voice with tears in my eyes.... he started laughing and acted surprised as though I'd over reacted. The worst thing was there was girls about.... the stupid fucker probably thought the fact that my voice went high pitched and I was almost crying and shaking meant I was upset. If I get like that it means my body is surging with adrenaline and things could get heavy. The man child did not have a clue. He started to walk after me when one of the girls stopped him and said "are you stupid?!" - she knew the signs he didn't. Humans aren't meant to react well to their heads being hit not least the back. It's a threat. I hate violence, but I can't stand people who make me feel like he did.
  12. That would be ridiculous to even agree. A player who is likely to make England debut gets sold for a price circa £30m shy of true value
  13. Gibbs white was very good for Forest. pity we never got him.
  14. Barkley considering he doesn't have lokonga winning the ball and feeding him is about as involved as you could expect. in short - without Barkley they are a patch of the side they are. With lokonga and Barkley they are capable of springing surprises
  15. Can't argue with the results . Doughty off injured, regulion red card for Brentford - 3 match ban?
