I just hope against hope this is bullshit. Surely King wouldn't be dumb enough to hire Lampard based solely on family connections?

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.

I'll be very happy to be proved wrong.

But also very surprised.

How the fuck am I likely to know who wants the job? What I do know is that FL would not be the way forward. My suggestion would be to have a chat to the recruitment team at Brighton, they appear to know what they are doing.

Fairly uninspiring.

His Derby team were mid table statistically - doesn’t suggest he’s an elite coach. Can only hope he’s been trying to improve during his time out.

Coaching has changed significantly in the last 5 years. Young forward thinking coaches like McKenna, Maresca, Hurzeler are replacing the old guard.

Feels like we had the chance to follow suit and went with the biggest name instead.

I'm sure Doug wants Lampard because he goes for a pint in Mayfair with a member of the Redknapp family.

Bookies had suspended betting on Lampard about 25 minutes before that tweet.

It's easy to have a Gary Linekar 'Claudio Ranieri, really!?' moment at this point to be honest. We have players that are very good and we looked to be turning a corner.

It doesn't mean Lampard couldn't do well, or that we shouldn't be behind him at this point, but it's all a bit redundant. I was quite behind Doug King until now, but this whole thing is just a joke in principle.

King, close ties to the Redknapp family should mean fuck all. Any appointment should be on his merits as a manager not on who his fucking relatives are. Fucking prick.

They'll sell out in no time at all given how some of our fans seem to enjoy watching ourselves get fucked.

Somebody mentioned the link with Redknapp was Dean Austin.
If Austin is advising King, then he'll obviously push Lampard.
