The problem seems to be that football is nothing like real life. If I do not perform at work it is pointed out to me in supervision, a plan to overcome the issues agreed and a time-scale put in place. It is then reviewed. If I have not changed the behaviour/outcome/whatever I am put on increased supervision/retrained/replaced by someone who can do it until I come up to speed. If nothing changes I may be re-deployed into a less demanding job or sacked. None of these seems to happen at any level in football.

Defender cannot defend headers from corners. Give them a month of intensive practice and then review in match.
Still cannot defend headers at corners. Replace with someone else or buy in specialist expertise. Continue training.
Review away from competitive arena and. if no change, get rid.
If improved then allow to challenge for place.

Lambert's Against The Again hits list:

Here I Go Again - Whitesnake (this song totally sums me up)
Hello Again - The Cars (I love Lionel Richie's Hello but I think it is lacking something)
Alone Again Or - Love (I've been listening to this since Rafa passed me a burnt CD of the Love album after the Chelsea game)
Why (Can't You Love Me Again) -The Beatles/Tony Sheridan (I want the fans to love me like when we have demolished the fat Spanish waiter's ex team)
Never Let Me Down Again - Depeche Mode (my plea to the lads and the fans' plea to me, is a slow grower of a song)
Never Going Back Again -Fleetwood Mac (but I did, awful results one after another)
Home Again - Carole King (home is a safe haven, no one will bug me)
Do It Again - Nada Surf (my street cred song)
Hunt Again - Mission Of Burma (Lerner gave me a mp3 of this song, wonder is that a hidden message somewhere?)

Hard to believe in this media obsessed world that 1) he obviously hasn't had proper media training and 2) someone in the media dept hasn't pointed out that he's REALLY annoying the fans with that phrase and making himself sound like a cock. But then they also let him answer the question of why we'll stay up with 'I just think we will'.

The real crying shame is I can hardly understand a thing he says in interviews except for that one thing. Reminds me of the occasional pissed up Scottish tramp you encounter on the underground, mumbling away to himself before having an argument with a lamp post.
