Whilst I'd love to think he and McNally will sort out whatever has gone on, it seems rather unlikely he'll still 'officially' be here by this afternoon.
However, with or without Lambert, the club is in the best shape it's been in for the best part of twenty years. We are going to be an attractive destination for a lot of managers. If it's handled properly, we have more reason to be excited about the possibilities, than to be intimidated by a Lambert-less club.
Lambert has been wonderful for us and I wish him all the best for the future. We couldn't have wished for anyone to do a better job than he has.
I do wonder, though, if both he and Brendan Rodgers may have moved too soon. I totally understand their desire to move on, and the possibilities at both Liverpool and Villa (if Lambo goes there) are big. But, with big possibilities comes big expectations, and there exsits at both those clubs a belief they should be winning things right now. I wonder if there will ultimately be enough patience from all concerned to see the job through.


seriously now guys, if your club don't go for Lee Clark i would be very surprised!
I think Rodgers will do well personally, the way he will get Liverpool to play will probably buy him a lot of time at Liverpool. If you understand what I mean by that.

Lambert I actually don't know, great manager and a great motivator but with them having to slash wage bill, team full of youth players I think he may well struggle. I think it's going to be a difficult job for him and if he doesn't get them to finish top half will he still have the job? My guess is no and I also don't think he has resources to acheive that. Time will tell I think.

Just found out from source in kitchen at carrow road.....he walked cause he doesn't like the food...
he won't be able to click his fingers and make them play like that! their fans may expect that but that takes years to master how to play like that. roberto martinez is the guy who made swansea play like that - rodgers (and sousa before him) just carried it on and reaped the rewards! he is doomed to fail because he's believed the over-the-top hype surrounding him
There is a difference. Guru just talks bollocks, making out he knows exactly what will happen to Norwich in the coming months. Apparently WE WILL be relegated, WE WILL lose all our best players etc. Based on what exactly? Bugger all is what. Wumming for the sake of wumming![]()
For what its worth Thai, i think PL is making a mistake if he goes to Villa. I would have liked him to prove me wrong and take Norwich on but something is not right.
All managers see a good pay day and bigger clubs but history proves that it doesn't always work out. Villa don't have huge amounts of money and will need lots of new players.

) to see how well he does IF it is Villa he eventually goes to.
Supers, just out of interest, did the contacts you've heard from at C.R. say Lambo's decision to quit was just about a refusal to let him speak to Villa, or has there been anything else going on?

Anyone else feeling remarkably unflustered by this news, or is it just me? All of us knew this would happen one day and were all dreading the day it actually did, but now it has finally happened I feel oddly ambivalent about it. No drama, just a shrug of the shoulders and “ah well, onwards we go…” Really weird, didn't expect to feel like this at all.
Thanks for what you did for us, you were certainly a catalyst to the success of NCFC in the past three seasons but you certainly weren’t the bedrock, that’s us, the fans. We are the most important part of this club and we’ll still be here come rain or shine, regardless who is in charge or what division we may be playing in so onwards and upwards and let’s look forward to seeing who we bring in to replace Paul wossisname![]()

none of my sources said he has actually quit - just want to make that clear - i got the quit news from midlands journalists and it seemed to tally - they left it open and weren't saying either way, though it certainly looks as though he is on the verge if he hasn't already - but it seemed to be down to disagreements about the permission to speak to villa formally that caused the storm. that's all i've heard i'm afraid - probably pretty much the same as everyone else has now. only thing i've heard since is that lambert is still at norwich discussing god knows what!![]()
