Would not be a surprise if Lampard is the next Manager. Exactly what you would expect from an owner who knows very little about how great players perform as managers. For every Pep, Zidane and Keegan there are an overwhelming number of Hursts, Bobby Charltons and Rooneys. The key is how they...

And a lack of understanding regarding the long-term nature of success.

Please stop spreading speculative theories about AV without knowing what actually happened. Say something often enough even with a "more than likely" disclaimer and it gets picked up and repeated. Unless you know for certain then explain.

Tough task without Eccles and Sunderland at the top on merit, although they have not been so good the last couple of games. Anything out of the game for us would be an absolute shock.

I have to disagree, although we continued to rise up the league after a relegation battle for the first two years of his tenure. What was lost was the dynamic of the club that was the talk of football outside of the top three or four clubs. Jimmy Hill was the most innovative, progressive...

He is going back as youth Manager so still in a job..

I accept Ghana don't have great players like in the past, but they were pretty shit when Boateng was there. Hence he was rejected for the managers job.

Noooo. Think we will get someone who interviews well (see what they said about the new coaches).

Likewise, my neighbour said she was great.

That can't be right. We are following these top clubs.

The most successful management team in your lifetime is Mark Robbins and Adi Vivash by any metric. Wembley appearances and promotions trump one cup final and a top 6 league finish. That is because football has changed dramatically. The old top division and the current Championship are now not...

No one was happier than when King took over from SISU and lets face it no one would want them back. Since the takeover however, I have slowly been starting to become disillusioned with the King regime. The shock of Adi leaving without a hint of explanation and no glowing words about our most...

There is clearly something missing with our defenders at the back and in midfield. May be confidence or the shortage in midfield, as the problems remain when we change the personnel or the system. We have to put JDS at the edge of the area for corners because of his height. Don't remember Thomas...

First game not seen this season due to illness so had to rely on CWR. Business as usual, when we scored the third. One of them disconnected the stream in all the excitement. Some things never change. Great win. Defence needs to improve if we want to climb the table.

Some geek did a survey on how often black players were called lazy compared with white players obviously balanced out for the number of each player in any given team. The result was over whelming that the black players suffered the accusation rather that their white counterparts. Clearly, there...

Perhaps it's a Jim Smith to help Nilsson moment. Didn't Big Sam have a consortium who were looking to buy the City at one point?

James actually did the same in our first year in the Championship.

We had a set up that seemed to be able to develop players turning some of them into world beaters. Still relatively early days, but some players seem to be going backwards in their development.

So easy to cherry pick and say Robins has been poor at certain moments in his tenure. You have to look at where we finished every season and how we played overall. Seven years of the most successful outcomes since relegation from the top tier and some of the best football I have ever seen from...

Think teams have started marking him really closely, as he has been identified as danger man. Blackburn didn't and Sheffield Wed realised that after his goal. Another player with potential who needs to up his game.
