GK coach needs to go. If you got one of us on here, gave us years of decent professional GK coaching, then I’d be confident that all of us could’ve saved that first one yesterday

I’m not sure how to answer that. I thought Robins was got rid of too quickly. I suppose my argument back would be that these are Robins’ players

I’m not talking about them necessarily being decent people (although from the sounds of it some of them aren’t). But I mean the sort of player that has a winning mentality. The likes of Godden and Kelly were never Championship players. But they held their own in this division because they were...

Not this squad he didn’t

The ones behind the dugout? Looks like they were open but didn’t all sell. So maybe discount that game

We really do have a weird super fan bollocks that plagues our fanbase. Some of you actively want people not to go to games so you can boast that you’re a “real fan”. Its really weird

The original point I replied to was that Lampard wasn’t getting the best out of this team. There is nothing to suggest he is doing worse than Robins in that regard. That is the point I’m making. Perhaps it’s just that we’ve signed a big pile of shite for £43m?

Something went seriously wrong with the recruitment after the play off final. It seemed prior to that the character of the players was paramount to Robins. Since then it seemed like that wasn’t ever factored in. The character of this whole team is what is wrong. I’d love to know why we...

On what basis then are you saying Lampard hasn’t got more out of these players than Robins?

First 3 games in 2005 Gillingham in 2014 Possibly Accrington Stanley in 2018 Birmingham 2023 Sheff Wed, Leicester, Leeds, Swansea last season

Robins PPG 1.07 Lampard PPG 1.40

He's shown more of an ability than Robins to get the best out of these players

I think people see pre-90s football through rose tinted spectacles. For all the faults with modern football, at least you know you can take your family to a game and come home again uninjured

Are you that weird bloke from Finham who used to ring up CWR and tell them that you preferred playing at Northampton because it was easier to park? I’m sure he was called Pete

Why is it going to backfire spectacularly? Lampard can’t help that he’s a “glamour” appointment. Also I’m sick of the comparisons with Birmingham and Rooney. Ours is a completely different situation. We didn’t sack Robins to bring in a name

Agreed. I think the January transfer window will also be an indication of what sort of manager he’ll be

But it comes across that you’re now hoping he fails so you can be proved right

Why do you want Lampard out so much?

Which is why he sacked Robins. People seem to want to blame King for the decline and blame him for taking steps to fix it.

No we weren’t There were a fair few games last year where is was clear he was pulling out of challenges because he was worried about a major injury and not having any club at all. Robins didn’t leave him out because of spite
