I found it interesting earlier in The Telegraph article that Lampard hadn’t applied, does that mean King has actively seeked him out?

We can admit what it is and say it’s a shite appointment but still get behind the team. It’s totally convinced me Doug Bling is a total con artist though.

Just arrived back from the local pub, I spoke to a tabloid journalist who suggested we have absolutely no possibility of recruiting RVN, if that means we are getting FL which he he did not suggest would be the case, I would be fucking gutted. Surely, we can do better than Lampard.

If true, I'm dejected. A totally disappointing and uninspiring choice.

So much for King's nonsense about taking our time and getting the appointment right. He went with the "name".
Click to expand...
I'd have said RvN was more of a 'name'.

And tbh, the current England manager is also a pretty big name.

To me, all 3 leading candidates had their pros and cons. And there's that unquantifiable 'right fit' for a club. Any or none of them might have that!

this is the question, RVN was never likely as he'll want higher. If he did apply it was his agent doing it to see what we may offer.

Wonder if it is Frank what his wage will be - I reckon whatever it is will also have attached a massive promotion bonus

We could do a parody of you quite easily to be fair. Charles Kennedy crossed with Gerry Adams.

The interesting thing about RVN is that he has actually done some good things which I did not realise before chatting to tabloid journalist man. But he was adamant that his destination would not be the Ricoh.

Spot on.

Same people with the same outrage on here and on social media. People had turned positive about Frank but apparently he's awful again just because a European name became linked.

How utterly uninspiring

Get it right, we’ll be Frank Lampards’s Coventry City now

Not a problem, King can hold another fans forum with hand picked attendees who give him a round of applause before it’s even started and give a 15 minute monologue about how it’s everyone else’s fault that Lampard is now manager
Click to expand...

Yep, we'll lose our identity now, our Club will be prefixed with "Frank Lampard's" on every website, newspaper article and TV show.

All the hard work of MR and AV pissed up the wall with a vanity appointment by our clueless owner.

Having told the world that he had applied, making it incredibly awkward to reject him. Looked like a done deal from that moment tbh.

Can’t believe some of you lot, you were crying out for an experienced centre mid, Doug goes out and signs Frank fucking Lampard and you’re all kicking off! No pleasing some is there.

We just need to hope he can bring his own coaches, surely that’s a red line for any manager though
