It really has been a hopeless display of management by Lambert. We don't look even remotely dangerous under him and never have took matches by the scruff on a neck, which we have to do if we are aiming on the promotion. With Lambert we will be relegation favourites also in the Championship. There is no way this man can lead us to any kind of success. We also can't give any head start to our promotion rivals; Lambert must be released from his duties at end of this season. Please act now Mr. Coates, the fuss is yet again on.

If things are not working you change.
The fact that he only used two subs means he did not try hard enough today. That’s disgraceful

Tragically Hughes would have probably kept us up (just). Sacking Hughes was still the right thing to do but Lambert was absolutely the wrong choice and a disastrous mistake by Coates and Co.

Keep your eyes on the ball.
Only two subs - look at the bench.
Lamberts failed but he’s well down the list of infamy on this one.

Fucking dreadful.
Stoke existed before him and will survive him, I fear for how deep the damage of this will play out.

There were stats to prove it but somehow Stoke board managed to overlook them. He has never been a profilic manager, not even in the Championship (bar perhaps Norwich) and we still hired him to manage a Premier League club. Baffling decision. |

I didn't realise he's only won 3 out his last 35 Premier League games!
Bet he left that off his CV!

Not sure who we could have played, that would have been capable of controlling a game at this level. Headstart to our promotion rivals??? After we have sold our prized assets I see about 3 players good enough to hold their own championship. We are going to have some sort of monumental re-build in the pre-season, if we are going to avoid a further drop - We were a good 2 levels below a bottom half prem team today |

We will probably have a very difficult season ahead of us so we must ensure we have a capable manager in place for that. My point was that we shouldn't give other teams a head start by keeping Lambert and hope he starts to deliver. I've seen enough of his football to understand that he never will. We'll have to hit the ground running from the start, otherwise we might find us in the middle of the relegation fight again. |

Just count how many leads we have let slip since he's been in charge. Not even Pulis would try to defend a single goal lead for half a game. Lamberts a fraud, a total Charleton who makes Kamara look like a good manager. There have been enough chances to get the points to keep us up and they have all been thrown away.
I don't want to see him as manager for a second longer.
Get rid Peter.

I was behind Lambert when Stoke appointed him because I hoped Coates and Co. spotted something that I and several others hadn't noticed. But that wasn't the case. Lambert just simply lived up to his expectations.

Forget the subs, they were the usual mind boggling turds that this manager steals his living by. The absolute state of that team and the formation was a sacking offence in its own right.

If Lambert stays I think we will almost certainly find ourselves in a relegation fight again next season. The guy just doesn't know how to win games.
With the huge rebuild we'll need in the summer the club ideally needs a new and capable CEO, Technical Director, and manager to oversee the recruitment of an almost completely new squad.
It obviously isn't going to happen and I'm really worried that Coates will indeed stick with Scholes, Cartwright and Lambert, and the level of players brought in won't be good enough for a promotion challenge and we'll just see this downward trajectory continue.
Lambert has been a disaster but I'm worried that Coates will keep him as the cheap option. We'll start off badly and by October/November we'll need to bring in another manager.
Have the balls to do something about it now Coates - get rid of Lambert.

He's nothing short of a disaster and has somehow made us a worse team. Some new manager bounce that!
Boring Useless Paul has to go. Simple as that.

Out of his depth and the Crouch sub today just underlined his ineptitude Spot on. Crouch was an outlet ball all game and relieved pressure for the team. After he had gone virtually nothing up front. |

But who do we replace him with? Publicly he was third choice, privately probably even further down. Fuck me, how did it come to this?

We'll have to hit the ground running from the start, otherwise we might find us in the middle of the relegation fight again. Rightly or wrongly I think he will be kept and given a chance, he inherited QPR 2 and an utterly rancid club from top to bottom. We need a character who will work his nads off in the pre-season and install a framework to build on and at least get 11 players out at the start of next season who are fit and ready and actually interested in playing for the club. For that I cant think of a British manager better placed than the 1 we currently have, he knows the squad better than anybody and knows exactly(hopefully) what we need in the pre-season. The alternative is another road traffic accident of a British manager chosen by the Coates family who comes in and needs to take time before he changes things around, which will more than likely mean another battle against the drop. Horses for causes maybe. Personally I would not be sad to see him go, but I know the next manager chosen by the Coates family will be an even bigger disaster than the current one and I think Lambert is at least capable of keeping us up next year and building some good foundations |

Hughes did weaken our team considerably but despite that it should have been strong enough to keep us up. Lambert did a good job for organising our defense but he did it at the expense of our attacking play. Also his tactical substitutions were very poor, like today.
Next season will be difficult for us but our aim should be a rapid promotion, not least because of our parachute money. Year by year the promotion will be more difficult. If we aren't back within couple of seasons I'm afraid we will establish ourselves as a Championship team.
