Only our clueless owner could think of rewarding a manger who has lost ten matches at home in just over half a season with a  further three year contract

It just proves their lack of ambition. Bobbing along around mid table is great for them.

I think that's about it.  Moreover, I think they are probably shit scared of going through another recruitment process as nobody decent in their right mind would come and slosh about in the bottom 6.

Lambert, as honest a manager as he is, is out of his depth. 

I don't think he's honest at all in his post match interviews.

I am beginning to think that Lambert is worse than McLeish.

At least you knew that he had some sort of plan and arguably with less choice in terms of resources, Lambert just seems clueless both tactically and in terms of transfer dealings.

No no you mustn't say that. He came from Small Heath so he'll always be worse than anyone else even if he serves up 8/13 defeats at home.

I think lambert is worse than mcleish. Mcleish did a better job under a lot more difficult circumstances. Lambert has been granted oodles of goodwill, more time than most are blessed with and a decent amount of money. He has produced the square root of fuck all, I want him gone

Lambert is as bad as a manger who belongs in he same company as Turner and McNeill?

It's saft Chicago, not laft. It's a kind colloquial phrase when you read utter shite such as "McLiesh did a better job".

You are vexed?

Utter shite?

I did not say that he did a better job, I just cant see the difference in either Manager and like McNeil and Turner looks completely out of his depth.


But hey - We "GO AGAIN"

Because our fans were singing his name when we lost to Norwich which was Eck's last game probably.

That there is the very definition of 'be careful what you wish for.'

At least with McLeish my expectations were so low I could never be disappointed. As bad as we've been this season I still thought we'd win today, and then we didn't even come close.
