So we have Doug's penny pinching for years and everyone moans, Randy comes in and gives the manager wads of cash to spend and ultimately everyone moans.

God we do love to moan don't we.

There's no point spending money like it's going out of fashion if two thirds of it is wasted.

Or if you rein in the spending at a speed that would make George Osborne blush.

We won't get results if we play well and don't score. We have had chances! we just missed them!, It doesn't get any easier in the coming months

I can't quite put my finger on why, but we do seem to fade in games don't we?

The MON years weren't a disaster but they were a colossal missed opportunity which was compounded by the subsequent two years of shocking top-level decision making.

Lambert is quality, but i hope it doesn't prove that he's come at the wrong time, i.e with a shit chairman, very little fan patience mainly due to that, and with just too much to do.

Bent should have started.


I agree.
Can't help thinking that Lambert is acting the hard man by omitting him.

Well look at where we are. And look at where Everton, Spurs and even Newcastle are. As Fergal said, it's been piss-poor management of the club. I hope people don't turn on Lambert, it's not his mess.

MO'N told Lerner which players he wanted, Lerner backed him. If Lerner had denied the manager any money to buy these players he'd have been vilified as Doug was, it was MO'N who said get me Beye, NRC, Heskey, Harewood, Sidwell etc, it was MO'N who then fell out with most of them and refused to play them. How's that Lerner's fault?

10-1 on.  If you spend most of your transfer kitty on a player, you have to play him, even if he contributes precisely nowt.
