And not a penny from King...It has the funds to appoint various members of staff to positions it didn’t previously have…
Generally speaking it isn’t managerial appointments that cost a bomb, but the price of getting it wrong sure does. So if you’re convinced you’ve found your man, within reason you pay him what he wants.And not a penny from King...
Some may be willing to gamble our future for a chance of making it to the Prem. I'm not.
If we had just got promoted to the Prem I would be all for it. But to take on the liability when going against sides that come down 100m richer is a step too far for me unless the gamble is fully on King and not CCFC.
Exactly. You can take the piss as much as you like but reality is something different.OK, King will pay them out of his pocket from the goodness of his heart.
I fully agree.Generally speaking it isn’t managerial appointments that cost a bomb, but the price of getting it wrong sure does. So if you’re convinced you’ve found your man, within reason you pay him what he wants.
If you go by what king said he’s only after Lampard to Come in and work with the existing coaching set up, and from what I’ve seen recently that wouldn’t be a bad thing, clearly the abuse the ( iPad brigade ) got was just the anger being vented from robins being sacked, they’re more than capable, if I’m Lampard though I’m wanting to come in with at least one of my own staff, and seeing as Cole’s left his job I’m guessing it’s him, pretty sure it’ll get over the line, just a bit of negotiating left to doIf the delay is down to more and more demands from Lampard I hope King has a ceiling and if reached will pull the plug on it all. I’m sure there are plenty of managers (many with better credentials for managing a championship side ) who would be cheaper and more than willing to take up the role.
From what I have heard he is already supplementing our income presently.Of course he won’t put his money where his mouth is. It will come from the club. In terms of being “elite” that only has to be in Kings eyes. He could appoint Bryan Robson and simply say “he’s an elite coach”.
Where have you seen him being moody?@Saddlebrains is Boateng leaving? Seems a bit moody, was he pissed off that Carr was named interim manager and not him?
When sat on the bench, didn’t really seem that involved.Where have you seen him being moody?
Maybe when he found out our club has millions to spare that King doesn't have to put inWhere have you seen him being moody?
Working within the structure isn't the same as working with the personnel in that structure.I'm a bit confused. King wants to work with the structure, but surely he would have known that Lampard would want to bring his own people in.
That would have been one of the very first things discussed wouldn't it and known from the very start of negotiations.
Think we’ll no for sure by Wednesday, if there’s no announcement then we can start to think more is going on. Makes 0 sense to not have frank in for Saturday
Think it’s safe to say if he’s not in after the Cardiff game it’s off
King is stuck between a rock and a hard place and he will know it. I would guess he has learnt more in the last couple of weeks than the previous two years.Think it’s safe to say if he’s not in after the Cardiff game it’s off
Yeah I agree I just genuinely wasnt sure of his previous rolesay what you want about Rhys Carr but he’s actually done a great job imho
Because I’m guessing they don’t want to take anything away from the game tomorrow, it’s all part of some plan like some have suggested to get Sheffield and Burnley out the way, that’s what the sky guy seemed to suggestIf it's a done deal why can't they announce it today and say Lampard starts the job on Wednesday.
Looks like it's not going to happen that'll please a few.
Yeah working within the structure is very different working with the same staff members.Working within the structure isn't the same as working with the personnel in that structure.
Could have been some differences in understanding?
Good stuff. We can finally bring in, UNKNOWN.If it's a done deal why can't they announce it today and say Lampard starts the job on Wednesday.
Looks like it's not going to happen that'll please a few.
'Hey Frank here's a nice juicy pay check to become our next manager' 'Cheers yes I accept. My mates who come with me? Do they get the same'?If it's a done deal why can't they announce it today and say Lampard starts the job on Wednesday.
Looks like it's not going to happen that'll please a few.
guessing There‘s no point announcing him until he’s actually in place for a game, it’ll be a circus as soon as he’s announced takes the focus of the Burnley game, TBH if it does end up being Lampard they’re doing it the right way, keeping it very quiet as it should be,If it's a done deal why can't they announce it today and say Lampard starts the job on Wednesday.

It has, the only real news has come from a Man Utd fan with a podcast, what @Saddlebrains said earlier makes sense and prob the first real news we’ve had, there hasn’t been one bit of proof we’re actually talking to Lampard until todayOk, but it's hardly been kept quiet.
was it, by who ? not when Doug said Lampard had applied ?kept quiet? are you joking?
it’s been common knowledge Lampard was no 1 target the day after robins had left

And King confirming it around a week ago.It has, the only real news has come from a Man Utd fan with a podcast, what @Saddlebrains said earlier makes sense and prob the first real news we’ve had, there hasn’t been one bit of proof we’re actually talking to Lampard until today
Do you think it will be Frank?kept quiet? are you joking?

To be fair Nick he might take ownership of the decision and do that, we don't know.OK, King will pay them out of his pocket from the goodness of his heart.
