Where’s this been said? Could it be Steve Round as Director of Football? There’s been a bit of noise on this.

Let’s not forget that BTA has 2 in the league cup.

Who plays in his place? We tried Rudoni there and Sakamoto with a cameo. Bidwell is the undisputed first choice option.

Why was Hamer given a standing ovation and COH booed?! They both left us, it happens in football so move on.

BTA has more goals… Simms is our best striker after Wright. BTA is struggling in our system, we’re still too slow in build up and struggling to create chances in the box. That all said, he had one golden opportunity and totally fluffed it. Enjoyed Bassette playing today and think he has a big...

If it’s a choice, of course you’d prefer 2-2. If we didn’t concede such soft goals, we’d be winning so many more games. When Doug King said the players are as fit as they’ve ever been, it’s not a lie. We seem to be finish our games strongly. Watford, Sunderland and Sheff U are games we drew...

Not happening. Next!

Bidwell’s passing masterclass? Every single ball was underpowered.

Another game, another 2 goals conceded.

I went to the Jets v Colts when I was in NY last week and it was such a good experience! A great game too! If anyone is going out to the states, I highly recommend getting a ticket to any game!

Exactly. I’m probably coming across as ‘pro-Lampard’ because I’m saying he’s objectively the best candidate. Some of the criticisms just don’t add up, Lampard isn’t ’just a name’. I’m ‘meh’ about it because I have my reservations but if people look at it from a level-headed approach, Lampard...

The fact he’s managed at that level and is in the running of managing us is impressive in of itself. Even so, who on the shortlist has finished in the Top 6 in the EFL, let alone the Championship bar Lampard? For all the people bleating about Lampard, they haven’t actually mentioned someone...

Lampard has finished in the Top 6 in the Championship, Top 4 of the Premiership, managed in the UCL and got to an FA Cup final. I’m sorry, but if you’re being objective, there isn’t a manager out there who wants the job with those achievements on its resumé. On Horneland, there’s no indication...

He’s not been hired, if the last interview was yesterday, the new manager wouldn’t be appointed today and take charge immediately. The players and coaches would be prepping for this game and Burnley already. Even if the new manager was hired this weekend, it’s probably best to have Rhys Carr...

100% if we’re being pragmatic. Of all the candidates actually in the running. Of course people like Moyes and Potter (plus other European managers) are better managers but they’re unlikely to be a) interested or b) affordable. None of the other managers in the running have even got a promotion...

100% - there’s certainly a section of fans that look at his record at Everton, his 2nd Chelsea spell and decided he’s not up to it. In reality, this is a ‘step down’ for Lampard because we’re in the Championship. Personally, I think this could be a mutually beneficial hire, he’s a young coach...

I wouldn’t trust Reeves to run a piss up in a brewery. It’d be a repeat of the yacht at Charlton away, promising the world, only to get shafted.

If you discount: McNulty Hyam Kelly Doyle Willis Shipley Bayliss JCH Bright Chaplin Godden McFadz Gyokeres Hamer Maatsen COH Liam Walsh Allen Rose McCallum Marosi Wilson BNC Dabo Sheaf Eccles Wright Simms MVE Sakamoto Then Robins weren’t that good in reality… 🙄

I think Lampard was out of his depth at Chelsea and frankly, even world class managers have struggled there. He did what was expected at Everton and Dyche doing a better job isn’t an indictment on him. Dyche is more experienced as a manager, especially teams at the bottom end of the table...

Agreed. It’s also academic because Lampard wouldn’t have had a lot of control over transfers in the first place. The only big flop on that list is Werner. They at least made money on Havertz who is now a key player at Arsenal now and Chilwell was a top Prem LB before he was plagued by injuries...
