You said interviews were taking place when he was on holiday and he left it to Robert’s and Austin!
I was told before the Preston game on 19th October Lampard will be the man to take over if/when Robins goes
It was an open secret
The Robins stuff is just boring, he's back in work now and got his own absolute shite result today against a rubbish team everyone was writing off a 4-0 win against. Some of the players he bought in are also some of the absolute worst at the club.It’s something a lot deeper. Objectively, the team is better this season than last season and yet we’re nowhere near that level. We finished 9th last season so that should be benchmark.
I do think Robins may have created a mess with the coaching structure and recruitment because even he didn’t know what team he wanted to play by the end of it.
With Lampard, it’s still early days but the sooner he wises up and plays Simms upfront and pair Thomas and Kitching up front, get EMC and Haji back in the team, things should look up.
It’s going to be a big summer and we need to get it right.
Have a feeling ( hope I'm wrong ) that a new manager will be in at some point maybe before Xmas next seasonThe Robins stuff is just boring, he's back in work now and got his own absolute shite result today against a rubbish team everyone was writing off a 4-0 win against.

What Lampard has to do is recognise that or he'll be out the door too. I'm holding judgement until I see him with a full 'deck' and an opportunity to fix a couple of wrongs in the window.

I think he'll be allowed to limp home by Doug this season. If next season starts like this one he'll be done but hopefully not.Have a feeling ( hope I'm wrong ) that a new manager will be in at some point maybe before Xmas next season
Or a sports science and psychology department.agree with this, I thought half way through the first half the performance reminded me of our first season back in the championship when we expected to struggle against good teams, and picked up the odd good win here and there
we’ve gone so far backwards in terms of performances it’s unbelievable, and some of the players are playing well below their level but there are deeper problems… today Norwich were there for the taking and we should’ve beaten them but I never expected us to win, even when we were still 1-0 up with 10 to go.
results are one thing, but the way we play currently is shocking, no identity, no aggression, nothing - honestly need seven or eight new players (starters) at least
Congratulations.Got BSB Junior on the way later in the year and money will be tight. I cannot justify the expense next season.
Get Overson to pay for your holiday Again.Fair enough view. The main reason is that my lad is getting too old to sit in the FZ (he's 15 now) so moving to a non FZ area over doubles what we would normally pay in that area for the 3 of us (myself and 10 year old daughter too)
Nigh on a grand when saving mortgage deposit and holiday can be put to much better use
*Awaits get Overson to pay for your holiday comments*

And no O’Hare. And head turned Sheaf and MVE and ? Simms. All of whom need to realise that they need to be performing to secure a good move.The only thing that is different this season compared to last is the coaching structure. Anyway, what is done, is done and there’s no changing that.
Lampard will recognise it, just as he did with Collins, he’ll realise that Thomas and Kitch is the best CB pairing he has and Simms is his best striker.
You add 1-2 good midfielders and a 1-2 CBs, will change a lot.
He couldn't exactly not hold a 'fair and transparent' recruitment process by not having interviewed anyone could he ffs

Lack of game time can cause issues. But the inability to run hard when you come on as a sub is not one of themSimms (or even BTA) needs to actually start games. He hasn’t started in consecutive games since the middle of September.
Watford and Luton, he scores and dropped the next game. Cardiff, plays well and creates a goal, again dropped. Why?!
The erratic team selection from Robins and now Lampard has really done in BTA and Simms.

nobody seesm to want to know why managers keep doing it , they just assume simms is good enough at the role they expect him to fulfill , he obviously isnt atm
theres nothing he excels atHe gets a free ride on here - I think he’s just underwhelming
Let's be honest, if you aren't starting ahead of BTA, who looks like a competition winner, then you are in trouble aren't you.nobody seesm to want to know why managers keep doing it , they just assume simms is good enough at the role they expect him to fulfill , he obviously isnt atm
No no no! One of our own, player of the season, best midfielder we have apparently. 🫤I was baffled by lati and Eccles stood having a laugh with their players. A disgrace
Simms ruled himself out with a foot injury after Luton. For me he was key to our season. Criticism on here about him scoring in clumps or against weak opposition seems odd when we are playing strikers that don't score at all but it does feel like he has some beef with the club.Simms (or even BTA) needs to actually start games.

Maybe he needs to focus a bit more on himself and aim his anger in his teammates direction.Eccles was the only one giving it to the ref at the end of the game and he got pulled away.
No one else was bothered. Lampard was yards away and didn't get involved
Congratulations, hope all goes wellGot BSB Junior on the way later in the year and money will be tight. I cannot justify the expense next season.
That describes, how I feel about Lampard, the opportunity was there to move the club forward, there was no strong evidence that he would be the answer.He gets a free ride on here - I think he’s just underwhelming

Twitter has worse opinions than this forumWe tactically had their number , that's why we had to defend like the south Wales borderers at rourkes drift

The defence was the best part of the team today... Which is a concern!
Midfield is shocking without Sheaf. Eccles standard performance is 6/10. Torp is never a player in a million years. Would play Allen all day every day ahead of both.
The strikers look so poor even though we barely create anything. Not one of them can hold the ball up for a millisecond. Killed us second half today because they are incapable of controlling a football.
Angers me so much the money we have wasted assembling this shite.
Was just watching the highlights ,what a miss by BTA and their 2 nd goal is a clear foul.Individually the money spent is fine. It's the team that's the issue
