Sean Dyche is now spending his time out of management speaking to the media about his departure from Everton.
Around two months have passed since the Friedkins decided it was time to move on from Dyche midway through January.
It is a decision which has been proven right as Everton have shown vastly improved form under the 61-year-old manager.
Even Dyche has backed Moyes’ work at Everton since he returned to Merseyside.
However, the 53-year-old has not been singing all of Everton’s compliments during this recent run in the media.
His latest comments have left a bitter taste in the mouth of some Everton fans who are feeling their former manager has just taken aim at them.
Everton fans furious with latest Sean Dyche comments
Dyche has claimed he spoke to Moyes before being sacked and told him about how the players were ready for a change.
However, speaking on The Rest is Football, he also aimed a dig at the Everton fans.
“You’ve got the fans that don’t want the owner there; they don’t want the chairman there, they don’t want a legend Sharpy there, they don’t want the chief exec there so they’re not allowed to come to the games because they’re getting all kinds of threats,” said Dyche.
Taking to social media, the comments did not go down well with a number of Evertonians who let their feelings be known.
| Fan | Comment |
|---|---|
| @billbigley | About as far wrong as you could get. Just like his playing tactics! |
| @lordstu1234 | Showing his true colours now. He’s absolutely triggered that we didn’t like him. |
| @owens_efc | Oh dear Sean. |
| @garyh_1878 | No mention of the lies an headlock gate towards the fans. |
| @dvanmarle9 | I didn’t want him there. |
| @4everblue69 | If there was a little bit of respect from me left for him, it has now completely disappeared. |
It is not just Everton fans who the 53-year-old has taken aim at since his exit, though.
Dyche has also criticised Dominic Calvert-Lewin for cutting holes in his socks; another gripe Dyche had with the Everton players’ dress niches.

Dyche did admit he had some respect for Everton fans
It is a partnership which had certainly ran its time between the Toffees and Dyche, with the former manager unable to turnaround their poor run of form.
Dyche has been annoyed by rumours following his Everton sacking which he feels simply are not true.
However, he did admit during the podcast that he had an awful lot of respect for the Everton fans during the 2022/23 game against Bournemouth.
“There’s a lot of reasons why I commend the the Everton fans and even though you know I’m very Marmite with them. I think there’ll be some respect me, there’ll be some that won’t,” he said.
“The one thing massive respect to them. Leicester went up in that game and you know what the crowd, I’m not kidding, the Evertonians, it was almost like no, no, just get on with the team, just get on with the game. It was like they didn’t flinch even though they knew [they could be relegated].”
Everton News understands Dyche could manage a Championship side next term, with his time on Merseyside potentially hindering his next set of opportunities.
