Newly appointed Nottingham Forest manager Sean Dyche has swiftly established a strict training protocol, banning players from wearing hats and snoods during sessions. In a rare concession, he has permitted the use of white socks, a departure from his usual policy.
Dyche, who took over the managerial role following the dismissal of Ange Postecoglou, emphasized the importance of discipline and professionalism. He noted, "It's early yet, but I'd like to think they do their homework... I've let them wear white socks, for goodness sake, I've never let anyone do that. But they're not allowed to wear snoods or hats; I had to do a deal somewhere."
The 54-year-old manager, known for his straightforward approach, aims to instill a sense of unity and focus within the squad. In addition to the new dress code, Dyche has introduced light-hearted team-building activities, such as piggy-back races, to foster camaraderie among the players. Club captain Ryan Yates has expressed appreciation for the renewed energy, stating, "Let's be honest, we haven't had a good feeling around here in the last few weeks... the new manager and his coaching staff have brought a new sense of life and energy."
Dyche's leadership marks a significant shift from his predecessor's tenure, aiming to restore discipline and morale to a team currently winless in their last 11 matches. The manager's first challenge will be the upcoming Europa League match against Porto, as he seeks to guide Nottingham Forest back to form.
