Sean Dyche has backed Everton fans’ right to protest against the club’s board.
Supporters are set to stage a third peaceful demonstration outside Goodison Park before Saturday’s visit of fellow Premier League strugglers Leeds United.
Thousands marched to the gates of the Blues’ home before Dyche enjoyed a flying start to his reign with a 1-0 win over erstwhile table toppers Arsenal.
And the Everton manager echoed majority shareholder Farhad Moshiri’s remarks last month about fans’ entitlement to make their concerns heard.
“I don’t think for one minute they’re trying to [distract the players], they are just trying to get their point across,” said Dyche.
“I have got to learn more about that, I haven’t been here long enough to understand the depth of it.
“The fans have been fantastic in supporting the team in my first two games, fantastic about me being here. They have backed me and the players, that’s all we can ask for.
“The fans have got the right type of voice, no one’s got a problem with it, I certainly haven’t.
“If they can push that voice into the right avenues, when the whistle blows, that’s all we’re after, and they have done it fantastically so far.”
