another player roeder fell out with
User Posted Link
Having finished just shy of the play-offs, Burnley plumped for another player-manager by bringing in former Sheffield Wednesday, Spurs, Marseille and England winger Chris Waddle, assisted by Glenn Roeder.
Eyres had designs on finishing his career at Turf Moor. But it proved to be the beginning of the end.
?The lads were excited by the appointment, and I got on well with both of them at the start. Waddle even gave me the captaincy,? said the 47-year-old.
?Perhaps one criticism would be that he tried to play too much when his best years were way behind him.
?It didn?t work out, but my relationship with him was fantastic.?
The same could not be said of Roeder in the end.
?For whatever reason he seemed to turn and it wasn?t very pleasant.
?I was brought off in a game against Preston, and though I?d missed a penalty I thought I was still having a good game.
?I threw my dummy out. I know it was wrong but that?s how I reacted.
?Glenn Roeder made his feelings clear after the game and I retaliated. We had a ding-dong, which happens, and once it was over I thought it would be forgotten about. But it wasn?t.
?In October Burnley got an offer from Preston, which I was told had been accepted when I was called into the manager?s office after training one day.
?I didn?t want to leave, but it was as if the decision had been made for me.
