I fancy us against Leicester.Do you honestly fancy us against Leicester!?
Going to be very tough.
Usual lines of "They're shit/in shit form/look at where we are in the table" will be trotted out.
Like against Ipswich
Like against Charlton
Like against Birmingham.
They will be licking their lips about playing us in a couple of weeks.
You can laugh all you like, there is nothing more than teams in this division would love to see more than Lampard not get promoted, his appointment was mocked, whenever we lose a game he is the first thing opposition clubs and supporters seek to dig out - He is the obsession of the rest of the division cause he was an elite level footballer and I think certain sides and managers would love to stick the boot in on him more than they would the other sides

We will see, come back to me in May and we will judge how many teams we play in the run in, who would usually be on the beach have upped their performance levels for games against usGet help!
No one in this league puts stopping Coventry above their own ambitions.
Chris Davies wants to get results, get up the table and keep his job.
He's not going to ask his players to down tools in games to get one over onLampaed FFS
Everyone raises their game against the league leaders, it’s nothing to do with Lampard. If I play chess against someone much higher rated, I’ll prepare more thoroughly, focus more during the game etc. This is no different, because it’s a chance to prove yourself.We will see, come back to me in May and we will judge how many teams we play in the run in, who would usually be on the beach have upped their performance levels for games against us
I would guess most managers at this level would love to get one over Frank as he has been afforded breaks and opportunities they wouldn't have done owing to his level as an elite player
For me, we are the leagues pantomime villain - For years it was Leeds, as no one really likes Leeds and the rest of the division poked fun at them when they went through that period of choking promotion year after yearEveryone raises their game against the league leaders, it’s nothing to do with Lampard.

You do things which if you actually did all the time would have you higher up the table.

Boro lost 3 in a row recently, your theory isn’t bearing out. Oxford also tied with Ipswich ‘on aggregate’.For me, we are the leagues pantomime villain - For years it was Leeds, as no one really likes Leeds and the rest of the division poked fun at them when they went through that period of choking promotion year after year
I feel that is now us, owing to who our manager is as he is let face it a bigger name than the division itself
I stand by what I said, I think the majority of the division want to see Ipswich and Boro in the Top 2 and I expect that to play a part in the run in
Not if they have a chance of making the play-offs. They are in the same boat as Middlesborough right down to Leicester/Southampton. This league needs to have at least one non-parachute club go up. Surely we can hold this together?This League cannot stand Lampard and would take great pleasure in him failing to go up
We have to be prepared for teams who will have nothing to play for getting up for games against us like it's a cup final, Blues for example I have full confidence when they will play Boro and Ipswich will bend over and spread their cheeks for them despite playing like their lives depended on it yesterday
This is only going to end up one way unfortunately. The club would be very foolish to go down this road.
Or crossing to strikers who rarely make the right runs to take advantage of them.Need to start being hard to beat first,stop sending every twat forward to cross the ball with no fucker in the box.Stop letting in shit goals and tell defender's to fucking defend.

If teams up their game against us it's because we are top of the league, and they know they have have to.
It really is as simple as that.Teams are, that’s the best bham and Ipswich have played all season, we should expect the same every game from now on, we need to find a way to do the same, and not sure we can blame the squad depth, we’ve still got results with worse teams than what started yesterday, it’s just stupid mistakes, da silvas red card ( 2 points dropped ) Preston ( conceding to 10 men) 2 points, Charlton goal was shocking ( 2 more ) and at least a point yesterday without awful defending, that’s 7 points, huge gap
Thought Birmingham were crap, the others scrapped yes. If Simms had of squared to Rudoni yesterday at 1-1 it would of been game overTeams are, that’s the best bham and Ipswich have played all season, we should expect the same every game from now on, we need to find a way to do the same, and not sure we can blame the squad depth, we’ve still got results with worse teams than what started yesterday, it’s just stupid mistakes, da silvas red card ( 2 points dropped ) Preston ( conceding to 10 men) 2 points, Charlton goal was shocking ( 2 more ) and at least a point yesterday without awful defending, that’s 7 points, huge gap
Didn’t even look did heThought Birmingham were crap, the others scrapped yes. If Simms had of squared to Rudoni yesterday at 1-1 it would of been game over
I thought he was suggesting the other way round,and it would be Ipswich and Boro will part their cheeks and rely getting to or in the PO's.You think blues, 7 points off the play offs, will sacrifice 6 points because they don't want us to go up?
That might be your most unhinged post yet.
Eccles was in a couple of good positions to take a shot but EMC and Rudoni (I think) didn't give him the ball.Thought Birmingham were crap, the others scrapped yes. If Simms had of squared to Rudoni yesterday at 1-1 it would of been game over
No, he does seem to have Blinkers on sometimesDidn’t even look did he

I did think that was a bit odd. They're obsessed. Pity their fans couldn't be arsed to turn up so he had none to celebrate with.
Frank continues to live rent free in the divisions head
Since Frank took over we've floored them with 2 late goals and taken 6 points from 6, which i expect will become 9 from 9 later in the season. They do seem to be really enjoying this win that no one turned up to. Especially weird as large amounts of our fanbase and clearly Frank from the team he put out, made it clear we weren't arsed about even going through.I did think that was a bit odd. They're obsessed.

Robins picked his strongest available team, Lampard didn't. I said to my wife I've not known us be so bored as away fans in a long time, when you're busting out 'right/left side, give us a song' in the first half that says everything.Since Frank took over we've floored them with 2 late goals and taken 6 points from 6, which i expect will become 9 from 9 later in the season.

The atmosphere against Leicester will be somewhat different to the last few home matches.
In fact I think they are the perfect 2 home games to get the atmosphere and the team back on track.
It does annoy me how we set up that game, that was in our run of putting 3 or 4 goals past everyone and we set up against them like they were the world beatersHopefully. It was dire at their place, never known a game against them to have so little edge to it.
Still applies.Whole fucking world wants us to lose.
We now have to build a siege metality-whole world against us and that includes refs and media.
Build that team spirit up Lampard.
Take the pressure off us
We played good enough to win this game 9 out of 10 times.
Two massive home games coming up-make it nasty for the opposition and everyone else.
Them against us.
