I genuinely don't understand why people think a manager who took a basket case club to 3 top half championship finishes and an FA Cup semi final would be best suited to drop down the leagues.
He's a proven championship manager.
If he's going that surely must be his descion?
Can't see why club wouldn't try to keep him, unless there's someone else better lined up and the budget doesn't run to keeping him Dasilva and the new guy?
If he wants a certainn level of work rate from his centre forward and he wasnt seeing it in Simms then yes.
And as little changes as possible, great on theory, but it's our third game in 8 days so there may be a nessecity to make some
I love the man, but if he goes to Stoke or WBA, given one is 8 points ahead of us and the other 5 points behind I hope he fucks it!
As for having a decent Coachs aongside him, maybe they'll actually allow him to appoint Chris Ramsay.
I'm convinced Norman's inclusion is Lampard sending a message to Simms.
Seeing Jimmy87s comments on another thread I think the message is sinking in.
Wouldn't be surprised to see him start tomorrow
When the Watford keeper saved a pen against Leicester in injury time in the play off semi then they went straight up field and scored.
There's nothing wrong with people who don't love football, they're just joyless bastards!
