Sean Dyche tells all on moment he gave team talk to Danny Dyer at Serge Pizzorno's wedding

Sean Dyche has reveal he gave a team talk in the back of a taxi to hardman actor Danny Dyer.

The Burnley boss and the Eastenders star met at the wedding of Kasabian songwriter Serge Pizzorno.

Dyche was urged to give a team talk by Dyer and he duly obliged as he confessed all on the Peter Crouch Podcast.

He said: "I kind of known Serge later than Crouchy had so I didn't get the day do I only got the evening do. I was like the add on and turned up later.

“Me, Serge and Danny Dyer were in the back of a taxi, Danny Dyer had asked me to do a team talk. So I was doing a team talk on video.

"Danny Dyer, it’s fair to say, had had a couple of lager-shandies, I felt. I might be wrong about that.

"Serge was just wetting himself and I'm there thinking in my head 'I don't believe that this is'. Surreal memory.

"I believe Serge has got it. He’s got a video of my teamtalk in the back of a London taxi with Danny Dyer and Serge.”

Crouch joked that he missed the moment because he was too busy being the wedding DJ and admitted to "clearing the dancefloor".

The 44-cap England striker saw out his career with Dyche at Turf Moor after the pair settled on a deal at a festival.

Crouch failed to score in six games as Burnley finished 15th to ensure a fourth consecutive season in the top flight.

This term the Clarets have spent much of the campaign hovering around midtable and currently sit 11th.
