No sane manager with ambition will come to us. Di Matteo is pie in the sky and IMO not good enough anyway

Who (be realistic) will be joining us then?

Pie in the sky why?  I personally think it will be di matteo and quickly.



Because somebody on Twitter said so.  ::)

Whatever the reason doesn't matter but I know it's where my money is going, even though he is ridiculously short priced clear favourite..
Who are you going to go for mr sandman?
hey I will take the bet, how much ?

My money's on at the bookies !
oh yeh right Sky Sports Bet

The way I see it is pretty black and white.

The rot has well and truly already set. Stick with what we have and we are a dead cert for relegation, and also a pretty good bet to either not get to the League Cup final, or to be humiliated in it.

Or... Make a change immediately and at least give ourselves a fighting chance- if we go down then at least we tried to stop the rot.

Personally I wouldn't be going for di matteo if i was randy but I think it's a one horse race and no not sky sports bet.

How is he not the problem?

He picks the team and the tactics, he has been a poor manager for us

Maybe RDM and his staff might, for example, have a clue how to coach and organise the current players and make us harder to score against. Lambert certainly doesn't.

We didn't sack McLeish last season, why would Lambert be sacked now?

Lambert is not the problem.

He is doing the best he can with what he has got.

Injuries, bad luck and poor refs don't help.

If randy wont give lambert money because he may have lost faith it doesn't mean he wouldn't give a new manager money .
If you were thinking of sacking someone would you give them money a week earlier?
Any new manager I believe would have some money to spend.

Or more likely he'd allow the players to work these things out for themselves as it is alleged he did at Chelsea. That will work well with us won't it? ::)

We are 8 points worse off than at this stage last season.
We are in the relegation zone.
We have scored the least goals.
We have conceded the most goals
We have the worst goal difference.
We have had the worst defeat in our history.

Well if that's true and seeing the results they had John terry it is then.

Lambert is not the problem.

He is doing the best he can with what he has got.

Injuries, bad luck and poor refs don't help.

Regardless of the lack of backing, he should be doing much better and the team should at least be organised and hard to break down.

In fact, and I can't believe I am writing this, he should be doing exactly what TSM did, make us hard to bet and grind out points. PL must have had more cash than TSM who lets not forget inherited a team which had lost our two best players.

The fact that we are 8 points worse off than last season says it all.  In fact I cannot believe the easy ride he is getting. Staggering in the face of the evidence and treatment of TSM.
