Do it over 3 seasons?
I'd be rather impressed if king has paid for that level of staffIf we are bringing in Edward’s, Jones and one of Morris or Cole it’s easy to see why the negotiations have taken time.
Where are you getting that stat from? Tbf I can't think of any although assume you're right. Also whilst neither are prolific, Bidders has scored 3 goals for us (2 in last season and this) JDS has none.He has 4 assists to Bidwell's 2 over this season and last season.
He's miles better on the ball than Bidwell, who's only move is a hopeful ball down the channel or a floated cross to no one.
His assist this season against Derby wasn't even a pass it was a dribble that he over ran. And his one for O'Hare against Leicester was a 1 yard pass as he was dribbling away from goal in the box.He has 4 assists to Bidwell's 2 over this season and last season.

Still be today
Don't panic everyone
Give us a time, save my F5 key some abuseStill be today
Don't panic everyone
Lots of moving parts in this one, few changes expected and the bench will look a bit different come Saturday.
Is Ashley Cole coming in as well?Still be today
Don't panic everyone
quoting wikipedia, seems very harsh to sack him.
"and after a run of seven games without a game Edwards was sacked by Millwall on 21 February 2024"
Still be today

Painted?
Sign him upThat's comparable to my run as Coventry manager of seven games without a game.
"Cheers Geoff"Why are some people such over dramatic arseholes?

With all the ££££££ it's going to cost Doug, looks like he'll be changing his mind on loans, as they will be the only option we can afford!!!
Painted?
Beat me to it, cheers AOM."Cheers Geoff"
We had an agreement to loan a Liverpool CDM in place but he got a nasty injury so it fell through last minute.If you listen to the fans forum again King confirms that loans are allowable under their transfer approach ( as are experienced players ) and Austin explains why they can be difficult to get right.
There is no suggestion from either that we didn’t try to get the right loans or experienced players in during the summer, or wouldn’t try in January.
No he won't be, he was sacked in his first actual managers job.I'm worried about the control Lampard is going to have and the wages being shelled out. If we're bringing in the ex Millwall manager he's probably on similar to Robins.
This appointment feels risky
There is a risk to any appointment. Now if these players are as good as Doug and a few other posters still think they are, it shouldn't matter too much who the manager is and we'll cruise to a top 10 finishI'm worried about the control Lampard is going to have and the wages being shelled out. If we're bringing in the ex Millwall manager he's probably on similar to Robins.

Maybe someone else will take it over by then?2 year deal seems odd. Surely for stability it needs to be this season plus two years as a minimum. I know it means a bigger pay off if it's wrong, but who sets out like that? We'll presumably back him in the window and after Robins and Adi got 4 year deals it seems low.
These crossing stats are bollocks, you can hit the perfect cross every time but if we dont have the type of players that thrive on an aerial ball then you wont score goals!His assist this season against Derby wasn't even a pass it was a dribble that he over ran. And his one for O'Hare against Leicester was a 1 yard pass as he was dribbling away from goal in the box.
Only 2 of his have come from good crosses - Cardiff and Hull. His delivery from wide is not great either.

Yeah I agree with that. Dasilva is tidy on the ball, but he's not the great attacking talent some make him out to be, and they his attacking prowess should excuse him for his defensive frailtiesThese crossing stats are bollocks, you can hit the perfect cross every time but if we dont have the type of players that thrive on an aerial ball then you wont score goals!
King can’t win can he, if he brings someone in and allows them to hire their own preferred staff it’s risky but if he brought in a head coach and makes them work with what we’ve got he’d be “cheap”.I'm worried about the control Lampard is going to have and the wages being shelled out.

There was speculation from some quarters that we'd just end up with George Boateng for the rest of the season.King can’t win can he, if he brings someone in and allows them to hire their own preferred staff it’s risky but if he brought in a head coach and makes them work with what we’ve got he’d be “cheap”.
Works for both parties in my view in terms of flexibility. 2 years works for Lampard if he does well at the club and keep his options open to progress. In parallel, it won’t be as expensive for King if this does not go well and needs to sack FL. FL and his staff won’t be cheap so the relatively short term contract works for us.2 year deal seems odd. Surely for stability it needs to be this season plus two years as a minimum. I know it means a bigger pay off if it's wrong, but who sets out like that?

Nope. See the whole reaction to sacking Robins and the indignation of not having lined someone up simultaneously.King can’t win can he, if he brings someone in and allows them to hire their own preferred staff it’s risky but if he brought in a head coach and makes them work with what we’ve got he’d be “cheap”.
