Frank Lampard Rumours (129 Viewers)

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Since a big plus is loans, who would people want from Chelsea on either a loan or loan to buy.

Harvey Vale seems like a decent one for us to look to pick up. Did well last year and plays an attacking wingback role on the left. On a loan to buy could be a clever piece of business to future proof for Bidwell departure and suits the overlaps Frankie wants

Sure just seen on ic coventry frank lampard get snub by coventry but I can't find it again

 

[lordy_87]

Can't believe I'm reading posts saying finishing 9th and being within a hairs breadth of an FA cup final is a "poor" season.

I do believe there is a portion of our fan base with a very spoilt attitude.

Really?

Perhaps he was not docile enough for DK in the end.

I did actually see Kevin Kyle in the bookies over the road from that Spoons, he was spending a fucking fortune.

That's a simplified way of viewing things.

Most people are saying we had a shite start, good middle and frankly awful end last season.

It was great in places but it's wrong to say that we were not for example shocking after the cup semi for example.

Someone posted this earlier in this thread. It's a long watch but worth it. I am looking forward to Frank taking charge.

Dunno how anyone could watch that and then talk a shit about him whether they want him as manager or not

 

[SBT]

I think he will be in the stands Saturday

Lampard arriving late in the executive box

 

[Frostie]

Dunno how anyone could watch that and then talk a shit about him whether they want him as manager or not

Because he speaks well?

I will be a bit apprehensive whoever we get.

We had Robins for a long time. Many will have forgotten how bad things can get if things don't go right quickly. The atmosphere can get toxic.

I'm looking forward to the next stage for our club. But I'm not letting my expectations run away. This season I'm now just hoping for safety. 6 months of getting their feet under the table then getting a squad together for the way they want to play. But many won't allow this time before showing their lack of knowledge of the game.

Yes I saw him on the fruit machine. He won a pineapple and a punnet of strawberries

You’ve got to remember a lot of fans such as those now knocking Robins will always knock whoever takes over. It’s to ensure that eventually they will always be able to say they were right as no-one stays forever. The fact of the matter is Robins was hugely successful for the club in the round. Now it’s time to back whoever is next.

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

So wonder if today’s the day, feel at this point the bookies should start betting on which day as opposed to who

 

[Mcbean]

I understand from advance talks with my wife that there could be roadblocks

V funny when they have to do it for seven years looking more and more unhinged though.

Interesting to hear him say he’s a coach and not a manager; aligns with DK’s requirements

I agree 100%. I was underwhelmed about the prospect of him coming but having watched it you know give him a chance. We could do far worse.

Because he speaks well?

Is that so bad Frostie?
Does that not count for anything?
Plain speaking, humble, self critical, appreciative of his upbringing, this love for his parents, the support he's received, the fear of failure, his desire to get things right, his successes and the lifestyle that he enjoys as a result of his chosen career.
Admirable qualities in my book sadly all too few in this world of wannabe entitled folk

No, of course, fair comments. No doubt he comes across as a great bloke & he's always been one of my favourite players in the game.

I took the "talk shit about him" to be purely on his ability as a football manager/head coach which is unproven at best, disastrous at worst. I've not seen anyone criticise him on a personal level?

Think he famously had a lively conversation with James O’Brien on live radio once on some personal issues

I did actually see Kevin Kyle in the bookies over the road from that Spoons, he was spending a fucking fortune.

That's quite believable.

I heard an interview with him a few years ago where he said he had been cleaning toilets on ferries because he had gone bankrupt after spending all his money following football.

He came across well in the interview, and I felt quite sorry for him, but he's obviously made some very silly decisions.

In a pre-arranged interview

 

[fernandopartridge]

So because we had a small period of 3 months where we had some nice wins against Leicester and Sunderland away, we can forget about the rest which has been really, really poor. If you look at the fixtures last season, either side of the winter period, it's scary how bad it is.

We have spent £45m. You can dress it up as money that's been made but even if we started from a squad of 0, we still spent £45m. We've spent more than any side without parachute payments.

Stop re-writing history, our form from November through to January was P20, W10 , D6 , L4 = 1.9ppg which is solidly play off form if not borderline automatic procurement.

 

[David O'Day]

So are people till believing the King and Redknapp thing given it was spread by someone who was making up stuff for twitter clout?

 

[Nick]

I seen him in there a few times

I went in for a look, he was putting some serious money in the video machines.

 

[Nick]

Getting bored now, just sign a manager FFS. Anybody, just pick!

The way our fan base abused him was inexcusable in my view. Yes he was a limited footballer, but that doesn’t excuse the vitriol he received.
