Dyche really is a totally graceless tool:
“On Erik Pieters' selection admin error: "It was an oversight. We did notice it, Bournemouth noticed it and we managed to sort it before kick-off. Bournemouth, very gentlemanly, said they thought we had a player who was not eligible.
"You would like to think if it doesn't happen in a sporting manner there could be a story the other way but fair play to them."
firstly: “we did notice it”.
no you didn’t notice it as he was in the line up. it was pointed out to you (which we didn’t have to do) and then you fixed it. So why say you noticed it when you didn’t? That’s just lying.
Secondly: the correct sentiment is: “we ballsed that up - credit to Bournemouth for being gentlemanly and pointing out our error. Had they not done so, it’s possible we’d have forfeited the match, even if we’d won.” Why add the rubbish about “well, they were clearly under an obligation to point out the error... so let’s not overdo the thanks”.
