Frank Lampard Rumours (13 Viewers)

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Has Doug or Robins ever come out and said there's any suggestion of a no loans policy? Or have we not found a good fit?

We also have an inexperienced team ourselves so if anything, we need to get a couple of older players in steady the ship.

Well according to the Doug haters he doesn't

All this reminds me of 2013 and the Sixfields/SISU stuff, "Doug Haters", "Feverish Robins Supporters".

He did well at Chelsea first time around. 4th and FA Cup final.

Was that Derby squad really better than the squad we have now ?? I’m not so sure ……

Some talented youngsters and some grizzled journey men.

Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole leading our team does not feel at all right. Feels like generic “name” appointments and another step away from the culture we’ve built over the last few years.

Would prefer an unknown like Horneland, Michel, Jaissle etc (not saying those specifically, other than Horneland). Individuals with points to prove and reputations to forge. People who won’t see themselves as bigger than the club.

Saying that, if it’s Lamps (annoying already) he’ll get my support and hopefully this is where he proves he’s not just another intelligent sounding pundit.

Adding to my own post, and it’s been mentioned elsewhere, but another concern has to be the stability and long term planning here.

Could be doing him a disservice, but if Lampard does well, he’ll likely jump ship to a bigger team. If he doesn’t, we know DK will get rid. Merry go round either way.

Not exactly a solid base for building that rapport with the fan base, especially as there’s been so many comments re how unlikeable the players are.

I’d also add, this is absolutely driven by DK wanting to get to the Prem asap so he can immediately sell to Mike Ashley.

Cov Telegraph have done an article about what he has said today but just had an epileptic fit trying to read it. Ads and pop ups are a joke.


Don’t even have epilepsy.

Interesting read.

Frank Lampard: Was he any good for the Club?

Ok, he took us to the playoffs, and gave us a few exciting evenings during his 12 months. He perhaps was also instrumental in bringing Rooney into contact with Morris, and also meant that someone like Cocu could be persuaded to look at the Rams as a good step back into football management (althou...

Good job we are a bigger club and in a better city then isn't it.

He was linked at least a week ago before we even sacked robins

It’s just him saying he’s ready for a job.

I'd rather he went there. Probably just rumour anyway.

Exactly, yet there are plenty who think the expectation is now to finish 16th.

Just managed to read it and it’s literally one quote from ages ago when he was on TalkSport. Cheers Andy.

 

[higgs]

But that's a worry for me. If he manages a good season will he run off to the first big club that comes knocking. Long term stability is good for us.

Fuck him let him off if he does no great loss after losing king robins

Quote them all under this

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

If it is Lampard, it's an extra big gamble. He doesn't have a history of success in management, or being part of a long term project he's dedicated himself to. He's an unknown quantity, who hopefully can prove himself.

Neither did Robins 7 years ago

Neither did Jimmy Hill.

Hang on I thought polls weren’t allowed on here?

Way I see that is if he does here, we’ll be in the prem… who knows what would have happened then anyway Robins or not!

It’s old news. Mancini is likely to get it.

I see Robbie Keane is coming in as a late contender… what has he ever managed club wise am I missing something?

Another basket case club/job, sounds like a disaster waiting to happen if he can’t speak Italian (maybe he does? I genuinely don’t know)

Ashley Cole played there briefly if I recall.

Won the league in Israel

There are deluded, biased and stupid Coventrians who would actually struggle with that. Ones who can’t swallow the fact that Coventry is a student dedicated dump.

I can't wait for the poll to see how far we get in the FA cup.

Some Israeli club I think.

Sure he was at one of the big Israeli clubs the last I heard, not sure what he does now

Lampard over Keane every day.

Maybe a late panic from Dougie that he thinks bringing in a club legend may please the many who want him sent down for treason.

I still think that’s why Boateng got the job

 

[rockwoodfleet]

yeah, we were lets say industrial. It worked but let's not pretend it was pretty.

I think we were better than that.

 

[FergieTheFinisher]

I get what you're saying, but the statement when Robins was sacked was the new manager would work with the existing coaching structure at the club.

I’m not wanting to sound overly semantic but coaching structure and coaching personnel are not the same thing. I imagine there is plenty of wriggle room in that statement.

Nothing wrong with students, they pay their way at least. It was tongue in cheek. Can't call it a beautiful city but there are nice parts and pretty bits. All despite being Flattened in the war and neglected by successive governments.

I actually think Lampard would be wiser choosing us, he went too high top soon and got burned already after all
