Paul Lambert (R)

[Toronto Villa]

Stoke hire tramp

[Toronto Villa]

And get used to this look too. Seen after 4 or 5 minutes of the start of a game and very likely after goals 7 and 8 go in. And most certainly seen after one of many guaranteed late goals ending in crushing defeat.

Oh lucky man!

[shirley_villan]

So why do you think you’ll keep Stoke up, Paul?

‘I just do.’

[ChicagoLion]

The only profession where abject failure is rewarded.

“I thought we were excellent”

Sums the bloke up.

[olaftab]

He kept us and Norwich in the Premier League. Never been relegated so Stoke can prepare for PL football again next season

[passport1]

They will also have the pleasure of discovering latest addition to the bomb squad as the season progresses

[berneboy]

I wish him well. He seems a decent chap.
But it will end badly.

[Brend'Watkins]

I think to put an end to the amount of goals Stoke are leaking he should start with his keeping possession in their own half tactic, that should get a raucous rendition of 'Delilah' starting up on the terraces.

[LukeJames]

I'll always remember him as the Manager that decided the way forward, was to go backwards from a goal kick.

[ChicagoLion]

I wish him well. He seems a complete twat.
But it will end badly.

[brian green]

Is he taking the rest of the Three Stooges, Karsa and Culverhouse with him?  If he is the buses in Stoke will all be out of service with Stoke fans giblets round their front wheels.

[brian green]

I will always remember him as the person who pushed us on to the glacier where our descent began when he bragged that his lowering of our expectations was a great achievement.  The intellectual equivalent of the backwards goal kick.

[IAmTheOneIanOlney]

They must be fucking insane.  They're down.

You'd think so, but much the same was said about Moyes and West Ham and he's doing well there. I've given up trying to predict football with any accuracy. Therefore I think Lambert will guide Stoke to a Europa League spot this season, then they'll the win the league the next year.

[ChicagoLion]

I will always remember him as the person who pushed us on to the glacier where our descent began when he bragged that his lowering of our expectations was a great achievement.  The intellectual equivalent of the backwards goal kick.

Completely agree, One of the architects of our demise.
