I am not the blokes biggest fan but was this Saturday and last Saturday any better than what was served up under TSM ?

Instead of taking the mickey out of Blackburn , we need to start worrying about our own back yard .

And if he gets the job , good luck to him .

Come on we need a bit of humour to get us through this. Saturday was appalling, but I've actually seen Lambert getting his side playing good stuff and I never saw that from Mcleish.

Now as much as i never wanted him or loathed the time he was with us - thats not technically true

Chelsea away
Arsenal at home (when we all thought he finally got the "attack at home" idea)
Norwich at home when he out managed PL - oh dear i just realised what i wrote
Wigan at home

Might be a good club for him and would stand a chance of promotion- the Villa job was never suited to him and too big for him, Blackburn is more of his level and I think he would do ok there.

How many threads can you currently see that are doing exactly that?  I can see plenty.  Maybe if this subject isn't to your liking you can go to one of them?

Sorry that's true, I should have been clearer. I meant more over a sustained period, I saw Norwich play good football on many occasions last year and in the Championship. Whereas with a few isolated performances excluded, Mcleish's teams were always dour and dull.

You say we should worry about our own backyard - my point was we are doing that.  As for telling people what they should and shouldn't post weren't you the one that started it?

Best of luck to him/them.

Bit of a U-turn after them ditching Allardyce in the pursuit of 'attractive football' and by doing so casting themselves into the wilderness of the Championship.

Good luck to him.

He may have the last laugh yet with Rovers replacing us in the Premier League next season.

He got Blues promoted so it may not be the daftest idea, as a short term measure.  It won't be pretty to watch, mind, and they should jettison him straight away if they go up, or they will come straight back down again.
