For all those doubters out there, we are better off with Lambert at the helm than TSM - the BBC have proven it... ;)

I don't think you're taking this seriously enough!!!   ;D

I do wonder how long some student journo wasted coming up with this at BBC Towers - it must be such a slow news day for the editor to allow this to go out dressed up as insightful reporting!

Didn't even realise John Ward was still in football, he was SGT's #2 wasn't he?

I don't understand this.
Am I supposed to?
Have we been relegated already?

So Randy had a consistent strategy all along in targeting Martinez, McLeish and Lambert. Turns out they're all equally crap.

That's harsh on Martinez.

There's statistics and then there's ...

... statistics.
This is interesting momentarily but has
(i) no reference to other tournaments (cup competitions)
(ii) no link to the value-added that managers bring to the situation they inherit.
(iii) no appreciation of the resources at their disposal.
(iv) no reflection of length of time in role.

None of which observations would probably have helped PL's situation, but just saying, like.
