All involved here. Lati looking pretty sprightly as well.

Fucking hell... That penalty shout for them is nearly as bad as some of the ones we've had lately

People getting worked up about posters calling for Lampards head even though no-one has called for his head is classic transfer window SBT.
Almost worth brining no-one else in just to see how far the madness can go!

I think personally fans will turn against him. Some can't wait as well.

 

[clint van damme]

That's not actually true

I'll have agree to disagree with you on that one.

Some will if we blow this. But at the moment we haven't and no one has.
You were quick to turn on Robins to be fair with your now legendary taxi thread!
He had my unwavering support and so does Lampard (though I wish hed tweak things away from home).

Same, Clint. I think just changing the way we play for some away games (not all), would have resulted in more points on the board.

This was back before last Jan's transfer window, to be fair.

I think to be honest either way he will struggle to last beyond the turn of the year

Fail to get promoted and he is going to never recover. I think promotion will be great until the season starts and we will be struggling big time. Fans aren't used to losing anymore and they will turn quickly.

Lampard is similar to Gerrard and Rooney in that people seem to revel in their failures as managers for some reason

I always believe that if a manager gets a team up unexpectedly (and getting us up would be unexpected) he should be given the chance to do it again and that would be my stance if we go up.

Unfortunately Sunderland have made a rod for the back of any non parachute team going up as far as expectations are concerned but if Lampard gets us up I'd stick with him come what may.

He’s earned it really same as Robins did despite doubts about him at this level. I hope he’ll find a new way of playing with basically a whole new squad though because if we play anything like we do now Derbys record is in danger IMO.

The only way we can play the high line is if we spend about 300mil on defenders and 50 mil minimum on a Grimes replacement.
Otherwise it's going to have to be a whole new game plan.

You posted wanting Robins sacked on an almost annual basis my friend.

In his defence I have long maintained that championship defences are garbage and all out attack is the right tactics at this level.

Yeah, whichever way you look at it, it's a different beast entirely.
The speed of transition of even the poorest PL teams is frightening.
