I think King sticks with Lampard whether we go up or not. It always amazes me that a manager that does the almost impossible can be criticised when it doesn’t quite come off. That would apply to not going up or struggling if we did. I think King enjoys the profile Lampard has bought with him and...
There were some odd ones as well. Wegerle just didn’t turn up for the season, Jarni signed and never played. Then you had Alan Brazil, Terry Butcher. Big flops
He came with quite a reputation and we didn’t sign a lot of players at that time do maybe he had a bit of unreasonable expectation. Safe to say he didn’t live up to it.
The candidates for biggest wastes of money are long and painful and Woolfenden wouldn’t even feature:
Drinkell
Evtushok
Bellamy
Robertson
Pressley
Hughes
Etc etc
This is a complete myth unfortunately. He’s looked ok when we’ve been blowing teams away and the ball has only been in our half a few times and he can spend 80 minutes tapping the ball inside to Grimes.
