Should Dyche stay or is it time for a change?

BBC Sport's chief football news reporter Simon Stone has been answering your questions.

Alex asked: With Sean Dyche being lauded for keeping Everton in the Premier League with three games too spare, is his job now safe? Everton have been awful for the majority of the season and the last three home games have glossed over another dire campaign. Board and FFP uncertainty mean he will probably stay but with supporters calling for his head two weeks ago, is it time for the club to be brave and try something new?

Simon replied: I don’t see anything changing on Sean Dyche until the club’s ownership situation is resolved Alex. Even if they had lost every game, who would make the decision on Dyche and where would the money come from the pay his compensation?

The Premier League are yet to sign off the 777 Partners deal, which clearly is a worry. Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s co-ownership of Manchester United was put to them after the Everton deal and has already been signed off. It is stating the obvious to say the Premier League need to be absolutely certain there are no issues looming with any new owner. But until Everton have one, further problems will hang over the club.

I hope it gets sorted properly. Everton are one of England’s great names and their fans have shown huge loyalty. But other, better run, clubs have moved ahead of them and even with a new stadium, it is a long way back to the position they used to enjoy.
