I thought we were looking good before Adam got sent off. Adam playing decent balls through and wide, Johnson looked OK, Crouch was causing problems. I think we lost it because of Butland. He's not the greatest keeper that everyone seems to think he is. Shite referring from Atkinson cost us the points I think and I still think we can get out of this mess I agree with everything you said. Apart from the last nine words. I think today was terminal

Sorry, he needs to go. I gets it’s not completely his fault when we go down, but that starting eleven was an absolute tickling abortion. Just fuck off with your bullshit ideas, bat-shit crazy substitutions and pathetic pressers. I’m done with this bollocks. Go and watch Super Duper Bowl or summat pal This is not Lamberts fault. It's not his team. It's not his mess

Simple questions:
1. Where is Ireland after a MOM performance vs Utd then dropped into oblivion.
2. Where is Afellay? At least he's neat and tidy unlike total liabilities.
3. Why not call back the loanees? Surely they would be worth having as options as we are bereft of talent from the bench.
I don't care if we need to get fined for getting them back. Coats should have spent the money more sensibly when he had the chance.
Fuck it

Please just sack him tonight. I'm not normally one for knee jerk reactions but Lambert's return from the easiest run of games we've had all season is fuking disgraceful.

I didn't want Lambert at all, but I've been encouraged by what he'd done in his first few weeks in the job.
At 2pm this afternoon he lost me completely. Fuck off Lambert- clueless.

He'll be going nowhere, he was clearly brought in with the intentions of keeping him on if we drop down, he's a ready made championship manager and to be fair he does have a promotion on his record with Norwich.

No. If anyone is to blame it's Charlie. He knows the situation we're in. He's an experienced player. And he's gone in like that, he's the fucking idiot here Glen actually had a decent game. Ramadan showed why he's not really been involved. Shaq was injured With 11 men on the field. We beat them in my opinion.

3 words. Old Pro Mates........
couldn't wait for any excuse to get ex England player Johnson, Ex england player Crouch and old Pro Adam into the team. I''m sure adam has been in Lamberts ear about getting (drinking buddy) Johnson back in the starting 11 since he got here.
Joke of a manager who was past his sell by date 3 years ago. Non league decision making at this club and I fear what happens for us next season already with this bunch in charge. Rank amateur management.

Think it's time to stop saying "it's not Lambert's fault" now....he's had a decent chance to get us out of this mess and is clearly struggling!!!
We needed better at the start of the season, and we still need better now!!!
The board have had some integral decisions to make this season.....and fucked up on everyone!!!

When we go down will any young up and coming manager from the Championship or even League 1 jump ship to us?! Probably not :/ just one big mess.

He won't be going anywhere soon. Call me cynical, but he was brought in on the cheap to manage us in the Championship in the hope we'll bounce straight back up.

So you expect a board of directors that chase dinosaurs like an alehead chases a curry to all of a sudden change tack and go for a young option? I'd go for him absolutely. I have no faith in this board or owners to make the right choice.

No idea but it's what's needed. We need fresh ideas and the recruitment this summer of players is going to be vital.

I don't care if the current mess is down to Lambert, I do not want him as manager. He's another outdated dinosaur.
Not forgetting the fact that he's had numerous 'winnable' games and balllsed them up.

Thought he picked the right team, don't quite get the dropping of Bauer, but Johnson did O.K., we were playing well, against a poor Everton side, Charlie fucked it up. Even with ten men we looked fairly comfortable. Don't blame Lambert at all. Lambert is 100% at fault for picking Charlie Adam.

I think Lambert will be history by November 2018, the latest. If we stay up it will be another 84/85 season as things are at the moment. If we go down we will be way off the promotion chasing pack by then. Not sure who, but I don’t think Potter is the answer right now, but may be then. Still have my doubts with him, my view is he would be a massive gamble. However, his training method of ballet would be suitable for some of our sugar plum fairies.

The "football" on offer under Lambert has actually got worse to watch than with Hughes.
Hughes used to neglect defending in training making us look gash at the back, but at least there was SOME approach to our attacks.
Lambert is now so focused on defending and not conceding but he hasnt got a way of attacking. Hoof it to Crouch/ Choupo, but apart from that I dont see ANY pattern of play. Nothing that involves passing to a Stoke player anyway.
Next season we will be bang average in the Chamoionship, drawing our way to mid-table obscurity with an club wage level around the 80 million pounds mark.
For a club who pays more in salaries that Sevilla, Atletico Madrid and AC Milan we look like a bunch of plodders Shaqiri apart

Doesnt matter at this stage. If he gies at the end of the season there will be ample time to get a suitable replacement. Despite relegation we are still an attractive proposition. Needs to come with a complete reconstruction of the clubs hierarchy though.
