Quote"I've never had a run like this as a manager or been hit from pillar to post like this. It's an experience you take on board and you use it."You can't have everything going your way in your managerial career every single time. You have to take the rough with the smooth and when the rough comes you take it."I was only thinking this last night. Up until now, his managerial record has only been one of success. The problem being is now he doesn't know how to respond with "the rough". Like most of our squad, he doesn't have the experience and continues to make the same mistakes, week in, week out, trusting the same methods that brought him success rather than makes the necessary changes to deal with "the rough".I do wonder how crap things have to get before he decides to change things.

Fuck all, we still aint had any re-assurances about anything just a hash that looks pretty much like everything lambert has been saying for weeksWhat reassurance do you want? Everything is rosy, we're going to be fine, we're sacking the manager, getting Mourinho in and signing Messi and Ronaldo?Get real. He's said he supports the manager, the strategy is to back him, manage the money and try and sign players. And he's confirmed that in essence we've spunked a load of cash and won fuck all over the past few years. He ain't wrong.I think something suggesting that he himself is at the club for the long term would help.

Indeed I think the statement is fine and he couldn't have said much more, it's the action that follows it now that's important.
I knew this would happen. I even said it on the transfer thread last week.Constant whinging asking for the chairman to speak and tell he's still interested and wants us to improve. He speaks and tells us there's money available and they want to back the manager and still most people are moaning that he's not told us anything. I don't get it, far too many grown men with their knickers in a twist over this.He's said, effectively, he backs the manager to turn it around and that he will support him, with signings, to do just that. There's no need to read more into or bitch that it's lies, etc. Wait until Thursday if nothing has happened then we can dissect the statement and point fingers at Lerner for lying or Lambert for not spending but today we've had a clear message that money is there and they want players to come in.
A similar statement was released this time last year, if i remember rightly it was a letter backing McLeish and stating a similar vision...He was then sacked at the end of the season - and people wonder why we don't believe what Lerner is saying? hmm...

Fair enough we are all entitled to our own opinion, and opinions will very much be varied when the club is in this position...However this statement has left me more confused than i was before. Lambert clearly stated at lunchtime that there is no money to spend on players...So where's this money come from in the last 3 hours? ermm
