Dyche: 'We won't change things radically at Burnley'
Ex-Watford boss Sean Dyche insists his decision to join Burnley was instant and stressed he does not plan to change things at the club radically.
Dyche was appointed as the Clarets manager this afternoon and has agreed a two-and-a-half year contract at the club, who have also appointed former Hornets Ian Woan and Tony Loughlan.
The 41-year-old told the club's website: "It feels fantastic to be invited to be the manager of a great club. It didn’t take me any time at all to accept the role, despite popular misconceptions.
"I wasn’t at home having the weekend to think about it. I decided instantly and we got on with things as quickly as we could, but things still need to be put into place contractually.
"I was at Cardiff on Saturday to have a look at that and it was finally great to get out with the players on Tuesday.
"This is a club in some kind of transition after a spell in the Premier League, but it is clearly a club that wants to build and move forward and I desperately want to be a part of that and make sure that we do that."
"We want to stamp our own authority on things and give the players food for thought, but not change radically," Dyche added.
"We love the way the team attacks and we will definitely be using that to our advantage.
"But it’s fair to say I think it needs shoring up a bit and the framework the team uses needs tightening slightly, so we will be looking to effect that and hopefully continue to score a lot of goals. That’s the aim."

Why has there been more about him this week than about any Watford news.
Is it that Watford F.C. do not like W/O and do not trust their comments.
Can W/O seriously concentrate on W.F.C. and get news or comments from manager and players so that their is real news to read about.

Good to see Franks continuing adoration of Dyche goes on, but we would rather have breaking news on what's happening at our club.
Anyway at the forum tomorrow, be good to see friends and foes.

I've noticed that only when Lutondown doesn't really know how to answer a point does he react wth full-scale, unadulterated abuse. Personally I'm an ignorant, old, doomsaying, Negative Nelly, Dyche-loving muppet - and really quite proud of my status. My original offence was to question whether the new regime was necessarily good for the club, prior to there being any evidence, either positive or negative. I maintain that stance today. If he agrees with you, that's when you need to worry.....
So you want to seek me out old fella, do it properly

Bushey T, you will never get a constructive comment, his opinion is mandatory to those that follow and are just his sheep followers.
Where was he last season when, SD had to make do with a very limited squad?
Not supporting him as I remember.
Lest we forget, we ended that season a lot more positive than I feel we will end this one!

As for Bigot, well all I've seen is you and your fellow rats is moan about foreign this and foreign that, whose the narrow minded bigot eh?
I'm accused of being something of a browbeater by you and that odious old teat Bushey Wails, because I do not like you hanker for them dark by gone days and awful football.
One things for sure, I've got what I want and your wishes are firmly in the dark. Mine are here to stay, yours gone forever. I win, methinks.
Now, I'm in the Red lion tomorrow at 530, as I think our talking as now come to the end of the line.
No? Bully for you...lol

In case it was missed on a previous thread, Lutondown mentioned that our old watford Hero, Ken Furphy, is not in the best of health. All of us Watford old boys will have fond memories of his times, a manager who achieved success with a budget smaller that Bassinis office safe. Although we may all have our differences, we probably can all unite in our respect for Ken Furphy. Please, watford Observer, lets have an appreciation of K.F. whilst he is still with us.

At least the Burnley fans will know exactly what 'style' of 'football' to expect! Very limited with those options as its the only way SD ever knew.

It will be just as interesting to see which one's he doesn't take, as much as those he does.

Now get on board. These are exciting times. Bushey tales, if you really want to out-do lutondown then u-turn now, before Christmas, and admit that Zola is our hero. And accept that the Pozzos are better than Han Solo and Luke Skywalker put together.
We're gonna be a great force in football so it's a good idea to join the fun now rather than later.

I think that's me done if you can ask those questions for me it would be appreciated - you might end up in Broadmoor but maybe you will get to meet some of the faceless ones!
