Lambert is harming the club much more than any fan protest could ever do.

The thing is that there is momentum behind discord now. A win would contain it obviously but it really needs sustained improvement because even if contained for a week or two it will come back twice as bad as ever before. As an analogy we are like a hurricane/whirlwind/tornado or whatever, as fans. As has been said there is just a silence in the ground when we are not happy. This is the eye of the storm. Once you've pushed past silence you get the shitstorm. And that is where we're heading next. Lambert has until saturday to avert it.

Absolutely. I think there is every chance that we will see another 3 PL defeats on the trot plus another cup dumping by Bournemouth. The storm will reach positively hurricane force by then.

You've got to feel a bit sorry for Carles Gil in all this. How will he feel if he runs out to an empty stadium on Saturday.

I'm sure he'll soon get used to it.

For me, the worry is we pick up one decent result in that run of 4 which just resets the clock for another dozen games of shite

The man is completely deluded - "I guess now they are waiting for something to go wrong". Unbelievable. The reason the peasants are revolting, Paul, is that so much has gone wrong over recent years. You've broken practically every negative record in the club's history and we've just had enough

And to make matters worse for him the 'easier' games are over and the harder ones are up next.

Couldn't believe it when I read that.  He comes across as a terrible communicator in press cons, and doubt it's any different with team talks and tactics

Lambert's already got his excuse for a defeat 2 days before the game.

I can sympathise with Lambert in one respect and that is that he has been financially restricted for the last three years, he has on the whole bought well and it would have been interesting to see how he would have got on with a bigger purse but balance that against his persistance in playing narrow, only having one game plan and setting negative records that will last a lifetime he really has to go.

The problem is even if he had a budget to buy every player in the Sanchez/Okore price range and higher what many are struggling to see is would he have got them to play well together? The good players are playing well below their capabilities. It simply isn't because of the Bennett/Luna/Tonev level punts. The problem is much deeper than that.

He's as deluded as McLeish was, and has been saying the exact same things for three years.

"I'm not happy with the way we're playing, I don't like the criticism but won't walk away, we go again...."  ZZzzzzzzzzzz.
