Frank Lampard Rumours (34 Viewers)

Yep totally agree. Serious amount from the cucks on here saying it would be a good appointment.

Unless we’re gonna poach from a championship rival and pay heavy compensation, there is no “good” appointment. At all.

But it might be

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

I will never simp for King. He has been edging us as fans for far too long. I hope Mike Ashley will take over and let us fans goon to our hearts content.

Mike Ashley

Mike Ashley

Daddy Ashley is serious goon fuel

not sure why the wycombe manager would want it, looks like he’ll be a championship manager anyway with the club he loves, by the sounds of it its lampard, think he’ll do a good job here

 

[shmmeee]

I’m convinced that’s what’s happening - no way Doug arranges a fans forum without having something to soften the blow

He’s a massive fucking pussy. He’s not going to stand there and take the abuse. He’ll only have organised it if he’s got someone to hide behind like a new manager.

 

[shmmeee]

Yeah this is what I don’t particularly understand. If I was Lampard I’d be living out the rest of my days permanently on holiday.

Ego won’t let him

 

[Otis]

You and other members of this forum aren't appointing a new manager.

No shit Sherlock.

[procdoc]

I’m not against appointing Lampard having thought about it.

I am still against sacking Mark Robins though. It’s fucking barmy to me

 

[shmmeee]

The entire EFL is going to laugh as us as we go down just like Brum last season.

 

[torchomatic]

It's clever.

If they get Lampard up in front of the fans, he'll talk well.

I bet we get some very ambitious tripe from Doug about wanting Lampard to get us in the Play Offs this season and how he'll back him in January etc.

And he'll be gone by next summer if he fails and King will promise to get the next appointment right.

I have a bad feeling we're entering a period of disruption, a new manager ever 18 months or so. Breaking something that didn't need fixing in the first place.

I hope to God it isn't Lampard. Would take the Wycombe guy over Lampard every time.

No, the guy who knows nothing about football is.

New manager would have to do quite the horrendous job for that to happen. Which is possible of course. I just think we could get Mark Hughes in and the quality of our forwards would just about keep us up.

Grendel is the mysterious third King brother

[The watchmaker]

I doubt this will be a very popular opinion, but I've completely checked out in the last few days or so.

Losing Robins was absolutely shit, the players piss me off, and King appointing Lampard (if correct) just feels like we've become the ultimate parody club.

Someone said yesterday to me, how would you feel with Lampard replacing Robins? It all just sounded so wrong. Robins out. Lampard in. What. The. fuck.

I don't think you are alone here. I've made peace with the Lampard decision but the equaliser yesterday - if it was Robins I would have been punching the air - instead it was more 'yay'.

[David O'Day]

Okay have there been any actual proper reports it's Lampard?

Judt put a poll out on this but if Doug is expecting less than the playoffs this season sacking robins was an even dumber decision. Is going up this year is the only thing that saves him.

There's been absolutely nothing from any reputable source and I have no idea why so many people are acting as if it's nailed on.

It's amazing how a rumour can becomes 'fact'.

Everyone I spoke to at the game yesterday seemed to think it was a given.

 

[Wyken Sky Blue]

That's the unsettling thing for me

As part of the restructure there should have been a Director Of Football in place as the first appointment. They would either have kept Robins in place as they would know in the main the poor start is not down to him, potentially appoint better coaches to give Robins a better chance of staying in a job and if they decided Robins was right to be sacked be responsible for appointing the right person

If it is Lampard, I can't help feel it's only because it's the only name on the list Doug King has heard of!

Guys next to us claimed it was a nailed on appointment. Done and dusted. Hopefully not.

Totally agree. Lampard's reputation as a player rather than a manager seems to be the driver here. It's easy to think how King (I now refuse to use his first name) would be seduced by that player reputation and the "name".

 

[Tommo1993]

Is our average squad age 26? All of them will have watched him play on the biggest stage and lift the prestigious trophies. Can see that having a positive influence on them. Just hope it’s backed up with decent play and tactics.

 

[Alkhen]

Does he have the gravitas for this set of players though? Non loaded question

I'd say his stature in the game as a player is probably more likely to hold weight and garner some respect by Championship level players than it did with the rag tag bunch of Prem mercenaries he inherited at Chelsea and Everton.

Like most I never wanted Robins out but I'll give whoever is next a chance

 

[torchomatic]

Those who want Lampard seem to use the phrase, "he did alright at Derby" as their proof he will be the perfect fit for Coventry City.

Were the lights on ?

For the photo shoot

That'll be because according to the internet it is but there's been no actual news source for this.

If Frank Lampard was about to take a new job the MSM would report on it

 

[shmmeee]

He did as expected at Derby with a huge amount of loans, which he won’t be allowed here. And if he is then Doug is an even bigger wanker for artificially tying Robins hands to get him gone.

Whoever we choose it’s going to be a gamble, so don’t get what all the negative stuff about lampard is for, could be an awful appointment or it could be a brilliant one, january will be telling if we bring a couple of players in to fill the positions we need, even If we don’t there was enough in that 2nd half to show we’ll be ok this season, give him the summer and go again next season

Lampard if it is him may tell King he'll only come if he can bring in a No2 and bring in loans in Jan. Nobody knows what the deal if any will be.

Would lose so much respect for King if he allowed that. You rip up everything that’s working because of your vision then as soon as someone else challenges it you cave in?

To be honest I can't see there being many Head Coaches that would come here and work with the existing staff, majority want to bring their own people in and you have to appreciate that

This keeps confusing me. I thought the entire point was you don’t change the staff every time you change head coach.
