“Has no game plan”

Was LCFC’s game plan to not heavily improve their squad and piss the league?

He’s not getting the job.

If Carr gets something tomorrow i can see Doug waiting on it a little while longer. If it carries on Carr i imagine will want a crack it permanently. That im not sure is our answer but i could see a club lower down the leagues would give him a go.

I’d put a lot of money on Carr not getting the job.

At this point, unless Cooper absolutely wants the job, there isn't much good in approaching him. Assuming we are in 'advanced talks' with Lampard, if we mess him about to talk to a manager who may not want the job and end up getting neither, we'll look like right idiots.

Sounds like a good summary of our attempts to bag a CM last summer.

Exactly my line of thinking. At this point, I'd rather just go out and get Lampard and if he does shit, a bunch of other Prem/Champ managers will be available to take stock then.

If Cooper didn't want the job and Lampard felt jilted, then who do we go for!? The 'anyone but Lampard' brigade could end up looking really silly if we have to give it to Rhys Carr for the whole season because there's no viable candidates.

Maybe FL might decide to have a go at applying for the Leicester job

Has no game plan folks you honestly don’t want him!

How did you do last time in the Prem?

Surely we won’t do another Andy Thorn - that’s worse than Lampard.

 

[Alan Dugdales Moustache]

I really don't want Cooper. I don't want to sound shallow but he's the only human on earth who can close his eyelids and you can still see his eyes and I don't like it one bit.

I’d say that the ‘not to worry too much about Lampard, there’s plenty more managers in the sea if he is poor’ approach to the appointment is the recipe for disaster.
We need to make sure that this manager fits the plan that King et al have for the club and that he is then given the time to succeed.
Anyone who has followed this club since top flight relegation knows that the hire and fire approach to football management just does not work.
I think Robins should still be here and in charge. As he’s gone, King needs to make sure that his successor works.
