Frank Lampard Rumours (68 Viewers)

[Chris1987]

Probably would tbh, how many people are putting serious money on this?

The only way you’d have any info would be insider knowledge that potentially risks your career if found out.

Inevitably there will be someone with the right connections who is a big hitter . Undoubtedly too this individual will be known by the bookmaking fraternity and the bet refused and the markets shut down. He wouldn't have time to get a network of smaller punters putting bets on for him to go under the radar

Everyone who's ever managed them has kept Everton in the Premier League.

I'm not sure 6th with that Derby side can be said to be a huge success. It had players like Wilson, Mount and Tomori in it. Wasn't that basically in the era that ultimately screwed them? They had to get promoted or they were in it up to their necks; well, look how it turned out for them.

We got to a playoff final with Doyle, Hamer and Gyokeres, what’s your point?

 

[David O'Day]

A proper journalist now reporting it

I'd still not count it as on until someone better reports it, he does like to to thro things at a wall and see what sticks.

I'd by okay with Lampard though.

 

[torchomatic]

If true, I'm dejected. A totally disappointing and uninspiring choice.

So much for King's nonsense about taking our time and getting the appointment right. He went with the "name".

 

[Frankly_Mr_Shankly]

Someone who got the job because they impressed with their record and interview not cos their uncle gave Doug their phone number over a beer.

You need to let go of your hatred for DK, it’s clouding your judgment

 

[Chris1987]

Christ id forgotten what it feels like for your club to be a laughing stock. Twitter is ripping us a new arse.

Twatter is a cess pit

 

[David O'Day]

that plus he's a clueless arse

Agreed. I can’t believe people are lapping this up. It’s the easy appointment and totally devoid of any sort of outside the box thinking

 

[Shannerz]

Who would your preferred candidate have been? We probably share the same view that no one candidate was a stand out replacement for Robins. RVN, Lampard and Carsley (plus other Championship/L1 managers) wouldn’t have floated my boat to be honest.

Well, one thing to say is that we don't know how serious the links with those people are, or who else is / was genuinely in the frame.

Of those three, probably Carsley. I'd be happier though to take a punt on someone less experienced, rather than appoint someone who's record it's erring on generous to call average, though.

 

[Frankly_Mr_Shankly]

Agreed. I can’t believe people are lapping this up. It’s the easy appointment and totally devoid of any sort of outside the box thinking

RVN would have been a bigger risk.

We're an absolute embarrassment of a club.

We had a manager who fixed the relationship between the fans and the club when it seemed impossible, brought us back up the leagues, and made us respected in the public eye again, after decades of being laughed at.

That's all now gone to shit. You have sacked him to bring in what is essentially a Hollywood name with no stripes. Say it out loud... You've sacked Mark Robins for Frank fucking Lampard. Doug King you are an absolute c**t.

Not sure how any of you clapping seals got your brains wired so to think this is good. I'm fucking furious.

 

[False9]

Is there credible evidence that Doug knows Redknapp/Lampard besides the face he called him Frank at the forum

Bit over the top mate.

Well said. Load of cucks on here would clap and nod if their wife told them they had a new boyfriend.

 

[SkyBlueDom26]

Still some twists in this yet

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Bit over the top mate.

What part of it?

It's a fucking circus.

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

Agreed. I can’t believe people are lapping this up. It’s the easy appointment and totally devoid of any sort of outside the box thinking

What you expect us to do though? It’s not really lapping it up - it is what it is. All we can do is get behind him

 

[procdoc]

Mate we get that you don’t like it. I’m on the fence but spitting dummy out every other post isn’t going to make a difference

 

[Shannerz]

We got to a playoff final with Doyle, Hamer and Gyokeres, what’s your point?

Our squad that season was nowhere near the quality Derby's when Lampard managed them.

 

[procdoc]

What part of it?

It's a fucking circus.

We could have appointed a Schumacher or a Dean Smith, that would be way less inspiring

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

it’s not a done deal is it yet ?

 

[peteCCFC]

Saturday will be fun when we're 2-0 down. Lampard is such an easy choice, no evidence of being an elite technician. Doug running the club like its a computer game.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

What you expect us to do though? It’s not really lapping it up - it is what it is. All we can do is get behind him

We can admit what it is and say it’s a shite appointment but still get behind the team. It’s totally convinced me Doug Bling is a total con artist though.

I thought he was just parodying ESB

How OTT - it's really not

Hmmm

Doug bling, I like it sparks.

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

By that ridiculous logic you might as well hire Pamela Anderson.

 

[chiefdave]

How utterly uninspiring

Big Fat Frank’s, Sky Blue Army!!!!!

Get it right, we’ll be Frank Lampards’s Coventry City now

King obviously doesn’t read the forum otherwise he would have seen only 20% of us would be happy with Lampard

Not a problem, King can hold another fans forum with hand picked attendees who give him a round of applause before it’s even started and give a 15 minute monologue about how it’s everyone else’s fault that Lampard is now manager

 

[procdoc]

Careful Pete the baying mob will be on you!

I like you as a poster, I really do. But you’re not thinking rationally

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

How OTT - it's really not

Sacking Mark Robins for Frank Lampard is the only thing here OTT.

Frank will do well ... clever lad !!

Not if you are Harry Redknapp!
