Crystal Palace fans have taken to Twitter to react after Burnley announced that Sean Dyche had signed a new four-year contract at Turf Moor.
What’s the story?
Well, the man who nearly always seems to be linked to managerial vacancies at Selhurst Park has now committed himself to the Clarets.
Dyche was a strong contender to replace Roy Hodgson over the summer, with 90min even claiming that Steve Parish wanted to hire him.

With all due respect to his ability, we don’t think they’re the players for his style.
Nevertheless, let’s see what the Crystal Palace fans on Twitter have been saying about Burnley’s announcement…
