This is the crux of it. The young and hungry players under Lambert fought like a team to get results. Too many of our present players think they can succeed by just turning up with technical skills and little passion to fight for results. I wouldn't mind seeing Mark Robbins come in as manager. He's done a great job at Coventry.The difference is that their sum is greater than their parts - we seem to be the polar opposite at the moment
I agree. My wife asked me when City play next and I didn't know and, if I'm honest, I didn't really care. It's not just losing to teams we should beat, it's doing it in such a lifeless manner.I can't remember the last time I've been this uninterested in our football team before. We've had bad managers before, but Smith is sucking the life out of this club. He should have gone before the World Cup started, giving us time to bring in a new manager.
It's also having a manger who doesn't want to be here, not even trying to have any relationship with the supporters, instead blaming us. We have no style of football, it's all just so dull and joyless.I agree. My wife asked me when City play next and I didn't know and, if I'm honest, I didn't really care.

John Percy from the Telegraph is reporting the same on Twitter
Seen it on facebook too, though I accept it could be bollox. it's not like FB is that reliable, but we can hope
That will doI could not see logic in employing someone who had been sacked by a club struggling in the same division as us only a matter of hours before. It was said that we had to give him time to assemble his own squad. Two transfer windows later.......? Also, if any manager arrives at any club they should be able to adapt and utilise the existing personnel with good effect otherwise they should not be employed. We should have called time before the world cup to give time to recruit and embed the new man before the Swansea match. Bad control and decisions from the top.A belated Christmas present, but I'd take it.
I was never excited when he came, but I always like to give a new manager time. But felt like we were always going backwards with Smith.
I do believe a manager should be given time, and bring in players they want. Just look at Arsenal, they struggled when Arteta went there, now he has brought in players he wanted and top of the league.I could not see logic in employing someone who had been sacked by a club struggling in the same division as us only a matter of hours before.
