I think doug thinks the idea of a big name brings more attention to the club , potentially more investment and it improves our standing in the world of football

He might well do.

But that wasn’t the reason Robins was sacked

 

[shmmeee]

robins wouldn’t play EMC, lampards turned him into one of our best players ?

You wanted him to drop Wright? By far our best player and top goalscorer for a guy who when he had come on had been absolute garbage?

 

[quinn1971]

tell what’s been positive over the past 2 games?

We haven’t lost ?

 

[GIMOC]

robins wouldn’t play EMC, lampards turned him into one of our best players ?

he didn’t play because wright played there

wright injury has helped EMC but to say that’s all down to Lampard playing him is daft

 

[Evo1883]

He might well do.

But that wasn’t the reason Robins was sacked

Well if you believe what is being said then king probably wanted rid sooner

 

[GIMOC]

We haven’t lost ?

id rather won one and lost one and played well instead of 2 draws and looking mediocre

 

[fatso]

Because you think he’s going to do better than the guy you’ve sacked?

By this logic why not keep robins and back him in Jan? Why sack any manager ever and not just give them more money?

For the record, I wanted to keep MR and give him the window. But with hindsight I think MR knew it was time to go.

There's not much anyone could do with the limited quality we currently have.
We have far too many league 1 quality players. Such as ,

Collins
Wilson
Dasilva
Bidwell
Kitching
Thomas
Lats
Torp
Allen
BTA
Tavares
And youngsters that havnt broken through and may never do.

That's half the entire squad that's not up to the mark, and then there's Wright and EMC on the injury list.

We simply don't have the quality in the squad to change things.
Hence we need a very busy window.

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

So a keeper making saves you’d expect is now a positive?

says it all

It is when the bloke there before couldn’t even make simple saves and has no bottle.

 

[quinn1971]

wright wasn’t by far our best player don’t know what football you’ve been watching Clarke needed games, lampards come in and done what robins couldn’t, got him playing how he did when we signed him,

 

[quinn1971]

Just trying to be positive, it’s difficult

I agree. My concern is we’ve got a head of recruitment and a head coach who wouldn’t know a decent player if it slapped them in the face.

 

[shmmeee]

He’s our all time record signing and our top scorer who on earth do you think it is?

 

[GIMOC]

It is when the bloke there before couldn’t even make simple saves and has no bottle.

so basing a player on someone with poppadom hands is an improvement then we are screwed

 

[edgy]

I said when he came I expected to see an improvement by Jan, not a revolution, but signs of progress. Players even just individuals upping their game, better patterns of play, more defensive solidity, anything to show he’s a positive impact on the team. I haven’t seen that. We’ve got worse in almost every area.

I don’t see the logic in throwing tens of millions and two years at someone who has given you no sign they’re up to the job.

This is of course only your opinion. Which is quite obviously overly negative due to your issues with how King handled Robin's departure.

Whilst we havent done as well as we all wanted, it could quite easily be argued that we have seen a couple of individual improvements, such as EMC, Eccles, Rudoni and Bidwell. And then the obvious of finally getting Dovin in nets, resulting in only 1 goal conceded in the last 3, despite the lacklustre displays going on in front of him.

As for improved passages of play, I actually believe we are seeing changes. Full backs, particularly Bidwell in advanced positions, and generally more bodies in the box to try and get on the end of the obvious increase in crossing.

To say we've got worse in every department is pure hyperbole which is making you and your stance against King (and in turn Lampard) look silly.

Half of this is just factually inaccurate. “Finally getting Dovin in nets” he’s benched him more in 8 games than Robins ever did (5 to 3).

12 months ago Bidwell set up a goal with a great cross

to say Bidwell never pushed forward before Lampard is ridiculous

 

[edgy]

he’s a bad egg in the camp along with a couple of others

Fuck off with this shit again.

You're the bad egg here.

 

[edgy]

Bidwell is getting into inside forward positions. Stop being a berk.

well he is

I don’t care on here I care about Ccfc

 

[GIMOC]

and he did under robins

look at his cross against boro this time 12 months ago

 

[shmmeee]

It’s ludicrous the stuff that some are coming out with. Today alone I’ve heard Lampard isn’t a “name”, Robins should have dropped Haji Wright, that it doesn’t matter who the opposition is in a game, and now that Lampard gave Dovin his big break when Robins wouldn’t.

Just batshit.

 

[edgy]

I don’t care on here I care about Ccfc

I've heard he isn't. I don't care either.

 

[fatso]

That's definitely a big problem, hopefully Frank can have his own way regarding recruitment, if he can't then he shouldn't of taken the job,
I'd be suprised if he hasn't demanded final say at the very least.

I don’t want him to have his own way. His record at Derby and Chelsea was shite. I want a proper scouting team.

 

[GIMOC]

by who out of interest?

His record at Derby was better than Robins you clown

Lampard, like Robins, has to take responsibility for any signings

More rabid hyperbole. You need a break.

My inside guy.

Not sure eccles or bidwell are at all different are they ?

Sure josh scored against plymouth but has been poor last 2 matches

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Indeed. Robins and Austin have left this mess of a squad that Lampard is trying to deal with. Lampard needs a couple of transfer windows to sort this out.

 

[Sick Boy]

Im on the fence. At the moment I wouldn’t spend a penny on him until he’s shown some level of ability.

Fucking hell.

 

[Evo1883]

Lampard, like Robins, has to take responsibility for any signings

There will ofcourse come a point where Dean Austin and his brilliant scouts have to take some of the responsibility

 

[shmmeee]

VMore rabid hyperbole. You need a break.

Is 5 more or less than 3 edgy? Let’s keep it simple.
