and then who?

Relegation is the last thing we need.

Sheffield Wednesday, Forest, Wolves, Ipswich.....all clubs which have gone down and have languished in the lower league for years afterwards.

We got away with it in the 1980's because Graham Taylor went through the place like a tornado and turned us round.  The game is a world away from that now

Exactly. Leeds anyone?

[eastie]

Gary Neville anyone?

Would be a great club manager in my opinion - not sure he would want this job though.

[Legion]

Agreed.

[VinnieChase84]

Like the idea of G.nev. Very knowledgable and by far the best sky pundit

[CJ]

Carlos Queiroz. Currently languishing at the Iran national team - may be persuaded to come to the PL?

By 'languishing', do you mean "preparing for the World Cup"?

True. But he's reported as expressing a wish to come back to England at some point and supposedly didn't dismiss interest in the Tottenham job out of hand ('he wasn't asked'). Being interested in Spurs and being interested in us is a totally different kettle of fish of course!

The best up and coming manager as far as I can see is Mark Robins at Huddersfield. This would be a gamble but not a folly as appointing a manager who successfully relegated the shite.

No to mark robins , best options of those mentioned have been Bielsa, rangnick, Neville , OGS , for me .

That's what Lambert was when we appointed him. If we go that route again we may as well just keep Lambert.

I wouldn't hold out any hope of anybody at the club being able to pick a decent replacement.

Newcastle anyone else? Not every club that drops stays there for years. Not that I want us to chance it!

[Brend'Watkins]

On current form I think pretty much anyone would be an improvement on the dross that's been dished up this season, it.s not just that the players for the most part are out of their depth and lacking confidence it's mainly down to the fact they are clueless when in possession of the ball, passing it around the defence may look like we are in control but are we? We just don't look comfortable, ever. There's always a mistake waiting to happen and today a better team than Palace would have had the game won at half time. That's all down to the manager. His players mainly, his tactics, his style of play (whatever that style is meant to be), his motivation, his project. We are going backwards and it will only finish one way with Lambert at the helm.

He has to go.

[Dave Clark Five]

Gary Neville anyone?

Good shout.

This for me.
