At the start of the season Koeman had failed badly and we were deep in relegation territory, he was sacked and the first bid for Silva failed.
David Unsworth came in as caretaker and improved results getting us to 13th before Allardyce took over.
Would we have been relegated had Unsworth stayed for the season or finished as high if we’d of got Silva straight away? No idea on both tbh.
Allardyce met his remit, but we often get “Allardyce kept yous up” etc thrown at us, when in reality he took over with us clear of the bottom 3.
Well, that's the move to City off for another summer then.
This is a huge one for me. It's stupid enough betting on football when you are not allowed but the charge of actual involvement........, that's massive if proved.

From the people I know that support Burnley, he didn't have a massive say on players initially and the ones he had couldn't adapt to the level of play he wanted especially regarding defending

Big if though. Especially with the standard of our refs. You can never guarantee a booking

Reading the charges then if proven it’s going to be a long ban - maybe lifetime

If true then he deserves it. Big word if though.

He’ll help their home grown quota won’t he?

It’s a huge IF , need to have some pretty damming concrete evidence to get it to stick
I am surprised more haven’t been done when it comes to it though
Exactly. If you Google it there are plenty of explanations as to why they keep Carson, why it suits all parties. He is hardly blocking someone anyway, the 3rd choice keeper is hardly a sought after position.

He's third choice keeper, English so counts towards their home-grown quota, probably doesn't ask for too much, and I wouldn't be surprised if he dabbles in a bit of keeper coaching as well ready for his retirement.

The comment on Carson was said with tongue in cheek 
That went well

The odds on next Man Utd manager makes pretty poor reading.
2/1 Poch
7/2 McKenna
11/2 Tuchel
6/1 De Zerbi
8/1 Southgate
It's not a great list is it? Poch is a solid manager but certainly not a top drawer manager yet. Although McKenna is totally unproven at the top, De Zerbi I think the jury is out on, and Southgate is already an abject failure at club level. And Tuchel I just think is a bit of a clown. If these are the candidates you might as well stick with Ten Hag!

Precisely why I have a feeling they may stick with him.
