Dyche: I want to finish well above Blackburn

11:44am Friday 22nd March 2013 in Football Photograph of the Author By Suzanne Geldard, Burnley FC reporter

SEAN Dyche says he would love to offer Burnley fans the ultimate bragging rights, by finishing above Blackburn Rovers.

The Clarets manager admitted his main focus is on engineering the best possible end to the season for his team.

But he knows how much it would mean to supporters to look down on their bitter rivals. And he hopes it would go some way to making up for not taking maximum points from either derby this season.

“It’s very important from the point of view of the fans,” said the Burnley boss.

“From the point of view of a football manager you just want to finish as high as you can. You want points on the board, you want to be successful as a team. You want the fans to understand what you are trying to achieve and trying to do.

“That’s my aim and the players’ aim for sure.

“As a fanbase it’s local bragging rights. We all know that situation.

“We have had two derby games we could have taken maximum points from but it wasn’t to be.

“But from our overall point of view we are looking to build, give performances that will win and finish as high as we can. That’s all we’re interested in.”

Dyche would love the chance to set the East Lancashire derby record straight next season – providing Rovers achieve Championship survival.

Burnley’s bitter rivals have been plunged into chaos after sacking their third manager this season while just four points above the drop zone.

But if caretaker boss Gary Bowyer succeeds in keeping Rovers up, Dyche will relish the re-match after feeling his side had done enough to win both games, even with 10 men for the last half-hour on Sunday.

“It was a fantastic experience in both games. Obviously we wanted to win both and very nearly did for different reasons,” said the Burnley boss.

“They are massive games and I’ve come to really appreciate it and understand after having two of them home and away.

“Sunday was a very good game. Our lads were terrific I thought overall, including the 10-man spell. The way they delivered the tactical organisation was excellent. We deserved all three points.”

But Dyche admitted he was still smarting from the stoppage time equaliser which David Dunn scored from an offside position, after Burnley had led through Jason Shackell’s first-half goal.

“Jason knew straight away that it was offside. He was furious in the dressing room,” Dyche explained.

“When I checked the replays I went in to see the referee and officials afterwards and asked their view on it.

“They seemed quite happy with it (their decision), but I said ‘I think you might change your mind when you see it’. That’s often the case.

“It’s a tough occasion, refereeing the derby, but I don’t think we had our fair share of it, including the big moments.”

“We got our players ready, we worked hard with them to give them that chance. When it goes out of your hands it’s very difficult.”

Dyche faced different managers in both derbies.

Sunday’s showdown proved to be Appleton’s last game in charge of Blackburn.

“It’s the strangeness of football all round, if you look at the life span of a manager it’s getting less and less. The demands are there immediately,” said the Burnley boss.

Funny, bragging rights. Finishing above Rovers in the championship. What does that mean? Nothing. Both teams going nowhere and different places in the championship is irrelevant unless one finishes in the top 2 and one in the bottom 3. The latter is possible but not the former. Quite honestly, Dyche has made himself sound pretty desperate. He cant offer his fans a win so he's now scraping the barrel. Loser manager.

I don't care for this guy or his brand of football, but to be fair to him this article has been taken totally out of context, and you morons seem to be responding to the headline more than the content, and by the way this article was ripped off from an interview he did on Radio Lancashire the other night.
Now if you actually bothered to read it you'd see that it was the interviewer who suggested it was important Burnley finish above Blackburn to which he replied that he thought it would be to the fans but he just wants to finish as high up the league as possible. But hey... don't let the truth get in the way of you half-wits having your daily rant about anything and everything.

I have a very vivid memory of a part time woevers fan saying that with all the money that sad more money than sense JW ploughed into the cess pity comonly now known as BolEwood, they would be in the Premiership forever.

Well the dosh dried up, Walkers pulled the plug, the chicken farmers are now doing a grand job of putting you back where you belong which by rights should be the conference league.

34 years or 100 years, it's irrelevant to be honest, its probably that long or even longer sice you beat Accy Stanley in the league....it means nowt.

He who laughs last....you get the message loud and clear which is what is really worrying you all....FACT.

Now off you toddle to a dark corner of obscurity forever, hopefully.

Funnily enough most if what you state us correct.

BRFC had a wealthy local owner who loved the club.

BRFC have win the premiership.

BRFC have not been beaten by our local rivals for 34 years, soon to be 35.

BFC could still not beat the worst Blackburn team in 30 years (at two attempts)

BRFC are in transition at the moment under very poor owners.

BFC manager ambition for a once proud club is to finish above Blackburn

WHOW, I feel sorry for there supporters, lets hope you can concentrate on YOUR club because I except we are in turmoil at the moment but things will get better (I hope).

I agree. I am sitting in Cape Town and have seen a few games this year and think this guy is a bullshitter of some note he wasn't good enough at Watford and now we get him. No Man wake up and get rid. Now our ambition is to finish above Rovers.
That IS AMBITON?. If the surrender monkeys could do it I'll look forward to the presentation of the " We once finished above Rovers" trophy and the 'open top bus parade.' .....Ambition my arse.
