I’d suggest he has some tactical awareness and flexibility

Everton weirdly don't rate any of their managers, it's almost as if they're playing with a bad deck

What's Grok? I left Twitter last week after Trump won the election. Twitter will just become the propaganda arm of the Trump Administration from January. BlueSky is much nicer. No bots, no sex bots, no Temu ads, no right-wing nutters.

Do you have to register and use your own real name with only one account permitted? Perhaps even proof via passport. At least that way you have to stand by what you say, any remarks however abhorrent, you own them. Until then I'll stick to the safety of SBT.

To be fair, if you ask the "majority" of city fans then Robins is the best manager in the Championship.

King said he was playing with his deck all night and couldn't wait for Lampard to have a go too

Dreamt we appointed Eustace, but he came from Plymouth and their fans were over the moon for him. Then there was a party and suddenly The Killers were on stage.

Pointless reply of the day is here.

Funny. When robins did that it was a sign he was losing it.

It's a risk for Lampard as if he fails here with the support Doug will provide then his managerial reputation is pretty much gone

Yes, When Fraser decide they don't want it anymore, probably related to getting some planning consent either on site or similar!

Not sure about that, if he went and got a random Norwegian from Div 2 that's a tactical Whizzkid and flies us up the table we wouldn't complain.

A geeky kid who plays versions of pep or Arteta and working in league 2 ripping it up, alongside someone who can give him Kudos by the successful record he can demonstrate?
A job for AI?

Does he want a big job? He's had a big job at a club he played for already. I'd imagine he really just wants to prove himself.

I think if an established PL came along he’d drop us in a heartbeat.

Dreams ALWAYS mean something.

Reading between the lines, Eustace went down to Devon for a 50th birthday party, but then on the way back, got assassinated.

@Saddlebrains can you clarify who put out certain information around matters around mourning, player's putting letters in etc?
I think the suggestion was it was more than one,Sheaf specifically was mentioned on here, what I'm asking really is from whose perspective did it come,and is it absolutely the truth,no mention of any trauma in their from King?

The tactical changes didn’t bother me, it’s the players being randomly shoehorned into alien positions that concerned me

Not that we will have any choice, obviously, but this has been running for a few days now and only 19% say they would want him as manager. Sorry, Head Coach.

I am still in the ‘meh’ group. Horneland would be very intriguing though.

Someone see if his CV is on CV Library and ping it to Doug, or see if they'll accept a LinkedIn URL. Sounds like he'd be a lot of fun! Wright and Saka would have a field day playing the way he does at Brann.

Thing is he hasn’t worked outside of Norway and is now in his 50s. Perhaps it would flop, perhaps not

Has Lampard actually been credibly linked by anyone on here as being a frontrunner for the job or is it just the press have some kind of hard on for him and that because he formally applied we can't possibly turn him down?

I think Lampard will be good. Right man at the right time for him and us. Doug will back him and he is tatically aware (something we have been lacking) and the players will be motivated.

Especially if he brings in Jody Morris
