Perhaps not, but that’s a different question

I would be willing to bet the same person confidently predicted we would never get promoted after the Luton final too. It’s just silly to suggest we would never have another chance.

Unless he could successfully frame it as him having no choice but to walk because of Doug King tying his hands, it would most likely mark the end of his managerial career.

Think there’s now an outside chance (however remote) that he gets pulled in front of Congress which would be devastating for the royal family.

His accent is incredible.

It didn’t seem to help Everton, or Birmingham, or Lee Carsley’s England out very much.

Here’s how the midfield set up for Coventry 7-1 QPR And here’s how it looked for QPR 2-1 Coventry I’m not sure you can say that Grimes playing too deep is the difference between the two results…

Were any of those teams known for their defensive prowess? That Birmingham team had Wayne Rooney as manager, why not bring him in as well to work with our strikers?

Why would it be ridiculous to sack a manager when literally any other manager would outperform them?

What is the evidence that Ashley Cole can drill a team into being defensively tight in five months?

There are also plenty of examples of me saying we need signings, but we don’t have to do this all over again.

I did, and there are plenty of posts where you laid out our needs without mentioning CBs at all. I don’t mind if you’ve changed your mind, I’m just saying. I said all along we would need extra bodies (ideally on the right terms) and we’ve got them. As bad as yesterday was I still believe this...

At this point I suppose it’s a case of only time will tell. I think your insistence that we can only get promoted if certain players are signed would have more credibility if your suggestions for what we need didn’t change every week.

Speaking of plan B - how long are we going to keep up the long throws? I’m not even saying give them up for the entire season, but surely at some point in any given game you have to concede it’s not working and save yourself all the extra stoppage time and MVE sprints required to set them up...

I know, but that’s not quite the same as what I’m asking.

Funny, I’ve seen plenty of posts where you’ve listed your minimum needs and left out CB entirely.

I honestly don’t recall where you’ve said we need a CB this window. Or have you just realised this week?

Lampard’s tactical choices will have an exponentially bigger impact on how the rest of the season goes than signing any one player.

12 games of saying we need to bring in a new CB or the season’s doomed?

When he hammered the ball at JDS out of play right at the end yesterday I just completely lost it. I hate to play armchair psychologist but I have no idea what’s gone on there.
