I agree Zoggy.  That said, it's not a newspaper, it's a rag.  I wouldn't wipe my windows with it.  They were reporting that OGS had turned us down this morning.  Obviously hadn't caught up with the truth.  Shite paper.

Holloway should be made to sing SOTC with his application. On TV. Over and over again.

The tw*t.

Yes I've read that crap and several other sources like it.  Happily, I still think we could get OGS.

Di Mattei is a 42 year old McLeish with more luck. I can think of a lot of people I would put before him.

If we're goiung for the young up and comer it's between OGS and Lambert for me.

Martinez and Holloway can do one.

My vote would be for Martinez from those four.  OGS would be OK though.  Holloway can do one.  Lambert?  A bit meh to be honest, but he could win me over.

Rogers still No. 1 choice for me.

For me it's: OGS, Lambert, Rodgers, Martinez in that order.

I'd probably go with that.

I'd put Lambert to the back of that list myself, but it's definitely OGS for me.

Yeah, me too. Thought Risso hated Arty Ziff (MON). Lambert has shown he's every bit like him thus far.

I agree, though in fairness Risso may think he's less like the Woody Allen look-a-like than we do.

In what way?

I have said it before, but take the time to read the Norwich forums.


Buys predominantly British, only comes into training towards the back end of the week, leaves training and tactical training during the week to his coaches, is very aloof with the press, is fairly direct and counter attacking style, happy to concede possession and try and hit direct, hence Norwich had the 4th worst pass completion up to March when I last saw the stats, and often had less of the ball. We have seen that style and it runs out of steam, because it gets worked out. I want something different. The thought of Grant Holt for a lot of money coming in has me in cold sweats. The direction has to change, style, players we target, how we use the ball. We need an end game, and I am not sure Lambert provides it. He certainly can motivate, but getting out of League 1 and the Championship is good, but to do it playing the way Swansea have is much more impressive for me. Also, Norwich finished with a -14 goal difference, showing their defence was not exactly the hoover damn.
