It's a catch 22 again.

There's no point in sacking him because there's nobody better (Ole Gunnar Solskjaer FFS) and it would put us back to square one again.

Not convinced that Lerner would be prepared to do that again

Bennett would make a cracking left side midfield player in a 4-4-2

Well, why not get OGS in now and give him a chance at rescuing this, or plotting a promotion bid.

I'd not be averse to taking a chance on Adkins now, to be honest. Decent job with Southampton, and a serious point to prove, I imagine.

The benefit of getting a new manager in is inevitably you will pick up some points and wins under him no matter how shite the team is. Redknapp managed 6 points from his first 4 league games at QPR, Pochettino got a point the other night, even Lambert got 4 points from his first 4 league games.

We need points on the board by any means otherwise we will be relegated, we need minimum of 4 points from Newcastle and West Ham home games as the games after that are Everton, Arsenal and Man. City.

I'd be more confident of getting those points purely from new manager effect than with Lambert still in charge sadly.

Nobody better, how on earth do you come to that conclusion?  He's been beyond abysmal, I'd take just about any out-of-work manager ahead of Lambert.

Don't hate the bloke at all. 

Hasn't patronised the club a la, O'Leary and McLeish at any stage.  And no vindictive MON'esque behavior (though in fairness, if he was good enough, I'm sure he'd have had no problem bailing on us if a suitable offer came in). 

Despite it all, I actually quite like him.  And I reckon in time, he'll be a good manager. 

Just not with us.

If we have any standards left, we can't gloss over losing to a Fourth Division side over two legs.  He's accountable for that, for not addressing our shiteness from set pieces, and our general lack of shape since the Chelsea game.

There's a good player in there, just goes to sleep defensively, if someone can get him concentrating he'll be fine.  Looked very good in the first half, wonderful cross for the goal, great run just after and put in another cross in the 2nd half that it was criminal that we didn't score from.
