The thing in his favour is the crowd by and large is still supportive at the games.

I believe that will change if we go limply out in the second leg, I believe that will be a tipping point.

Who would you get in? We'd be in the same position, squad is massivly under-funded, players are not good enough.
Is it Lambert's fault that Delph and Bannan keep giving the ball away, putting pressure on a defence that piss poor at best of time. He needs to get players in if Lerner will give him the cash. Game after game shipping goals, we carry on for much longer, we are down.

If we don't win Southampton on sunday he has to go.

I think it's just blind General Krulak style optimism. I don't think many can accept he's turned out even worse than Big Eck

We'll probably turn up Sunday, but we're playing Saturday.

Sacking him now would be nuts, but you have to say, if we go down badly against Southampton (and think what our morale must be like right now) on Saturday, then you start to think there's a build up of momentum that says he can't not be sacked.

Did you not hear the boos at the end of tonight's match?  Not much support there I'm afraid, and the away boys and girls are usually the last to turn.

We probably need 5 wins and a few draws in the league to stay up. I think we have a better chance with a new manager than PL.  just look and listen to him, he is utterly lost. Any pretence of long term planning goes out of the window if we are relegated. He'd be sacked anyway.

I agree and I think that's fair. He's had long enough.

Why do some keep saying that sacking him is wrong or nuts or a joke.
He is presiding over catastrophe after catastrophe.

That is not all because of bad luck, injuries and lack of investment.

We need 5 wins to stay up. Lose to Southampton and I'd have no confidence Lambert would be capable of achieving that.

Changing manager time after time is not idea of course but we'll find the right one one day.
