Not fit to lace Mark Robins boots, let alone manage this football club. He’s been appointed because he’s Frank Lampard, he’s a name, he’s done nothing in football management that gives me any hope or excitement at this appointment. Sooner he is gone the better

As much as we loved robins a win rate of 39 % is poor, I’d say he‘s more than capable of lacing robins boots, he‘s managed at the very top level, and done well, there’s always one

Clearly not everyone’s cup of tea although he seems to have the backing of most, my favoured appointment under the circumstances, just hope he gets the time and patience required as I think this may be a good move for us! here’s hoping anyway, onwards and upwards.

I think in the UK there are way more unsuccessful managers who were top players than those who do well. For us, Butcher and Reid immediately come to mind. Strachan's record was mixed, Milne was OK and Stuart Pearce was pretty poor. The further back you go, the worse it was with Managers like Hurst and Bobby Charlton. The odd ones like Jack Charlton were good but the exception rather than the rule. I feel it is a little different with foreign managers like Pep and Zidane.

Just saw him outside the stadium, got some petrol from Tesco and my daughter said can we drive around the stadium to see if we can see him didn't think we would
Got near to the club shop and he was walking into a side door with a chaperone gave him a shout got the thumbs up and a big frank smile, unfortunately no photo as he was quicky ushered inside probably thought who's this lunatic driving around the stadium with a woolly hat on

I said to my wife, Frank Lampard was born down the road from you (Romford). She replied he must be rough then.

That win ratio includes taking a team up , competing in a new division and then taking them up again and staying up

Which part of the last 7.5 years for you has been poor quinny ?

I read that FL said Simms would never play for him again at Everton. Will be interesting how this plays out.

Do you have a link to that? Seems pretty abrupt considering he was a returning loanee

Has anyone watched on YouTube? It sounds like Clive Eakin is asking his questions from the corridor!

Eakin then said on CWR, there wasn’t this many reporters for the appointment of Russel Slade!

Real accidental Partridge isn’t he our Clive

I believe he did say that he voted that way years ago but not surprising considered his upbringing.

If Everton fans can see past that then so can we.

The most important ones, the last 2, we’ve gone backwards and it wasn’t getting turned around this season I’ve always said under robins that play off final was the closest we get, and I’ll stand by it, players have levels and so do managers

Last season weren't a bad season despite the overreaction on here .. an fa cup semi final and falling away from the playoffs with 6 games to go can't be considered bad .

You will ofcourse appreciate these great years in time to come I'm sure

And over almost 8 years climbing 2 divisions, a 40% win ratio basically is very very decent

Don’t get me wrong, he’s given me some of the best memories I’ll ever have,but I think that was it, we need to get to the next level, I don’t think tactically he was the man to do it, how many top 6 teams make the changes every game we did, rudoni as a left back, he‘d Ran out of ideas,
