Considering Paul is fond of saying that he doesn't pick out 'must win' games and goes into every match looking for the win, his tactics and subs don't really back that up.
Absolutely livid with this tonight - no idea what to say - what's the point? Onto the next one - absolute crime scene this.
“I thought they’ve played well today. We were unlucky with Collins and Chambers both being out and being forced into the changes.”
I fear it’s getting to the point where Lambert’s causing more damage than Hurst. Bar the Accrington game I think he’s said we played well in every game?
We would not be where we are now had we stuck with Hurst. Getting Lambert in was the biggest mistake Evans has made in a very, very long list of mistakes.
I think we all liked Lamberts initial approach of galvanising the club but there’s only so much *the fans have been great*, *the table does lie sometimes”, *we played well in patches* you can get away with.
I must say I'm always happy for the managers to keep everything inside. That's me. I was the same under Mick. It's how I like things done. However, there's an awful lot of what Lambert has done that I disagree with and boy results need an upturn and bloody quick. I'm not ' Lambert out ' yet by any means - I mean I like the guy............. but then again I liked Paul Jewell and I'd happily have a pastie with him in Greggs. I like Ronald McDonald. Doesn't necessarily mean I like them as I T F C manager. All he is to date for me, is Mr Gimmick. Have to do a lot more than free bus passes to turn me on. Absolutely livid.
At least Leeds do us a favour tonight. Not good that I’m pinning my hopes for this season on Harry Kane-less Spurs winning the title and Norwich not making the Premier League but that’s what it’s come to.
So Lambert is blaming Kenlock for the result. 1. Freezes out the best left back at the club. 2. Brings in a left back on loan and doesn’t play him. 3. Singles out the deputy in a post-match interview. This is just one position of XI. Absolute clown.
Hampy you love blame - so if this is true regarding comments re Kenlock? Good management or something.
This is why you get remarks from me that you deem to be condescending Westy. How can I possibly come back at that without being? I have always said post-match when emotions are running high is not the time to be naming names and taking it out on individuals. They nearly all do it though. I wish Lambert would look in the mirror for once.
Well you don't like the happy clappy stuff, you loved Hurst's absolute meltdown post Exeter so I thought this kind of comment would be straight up your street! Anyway that's me for today feel like death so a nice early night and hopefully can wake up tomorrow refreshed / do a Norwich preview and think ' hmmmmm how are we going to get anything there ' - right now, all I have is it's a derby and anything can happen in them. That's me out.
A complete meltdown is probably what's needed. If Lambert showed a little bit of passion and fight we might be doing better than the tepid rubbish we are seeing. We couldn't be doing any worse. And no of course I didn't like it. I think next week is inevitably going to be a car crash unless we turn up and do something fundamentally different.
I am struggling a bit with all this at the moment. It is clear to the whole footballing world that we are going to be relegated - fair enough, no club has the divine right never to be relegated. However, it is the manner of recent events that I don’t understand. PL clearly stated on multiple occasions that the loan market was not the way to take the club forward and yet we now have 6 loanees. We may as well pick a team that has a chance of starting the 1st game of next season and send all the loanees back now
