Wullie Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 He's had a funny career. What he did with Norwich was extremely impressive, all downhill since he walked out the door. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Thinking of our poor friends in the Potteries at this moment in time. Just the man we need! What was Lambert like with Villa when he first arrived? Did you have a good spell with him or were you just instantly terrible? Long-term I think Lambert's a terrible appointment, but if he keeps them up... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was Lambert like with Villa when he first arrived? Did you have a good spell with him or were you just instantly terrible? Long-term I think Lambert's a terrible appointment, but if he keeps them up... First season - awful results but was trying to play football (remember, he succeeded McLeish), end of season barely stayed up, almost total support from fans. Second season onwards - hideous football, hideous results. Brain dead chairman gave him a new extended contract on the basis of a four match unbeaten run. Constantly negative and "woe is me". Apparently, his training routine consisted of not doing much training, and it showed. The only thing that made it worse was when he brought Roy Fucking Keane in as his number two.

Mistle17 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Stoke's next 3 games are: - Man Utd, A - Huddersfield, H - Watford, H Assuming tonight is a loss that's 6 possible points for them in the games after. Considering we're going to lose next week if they beat Huddersfield we're absolutely fucked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robster Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 On the face of it, it's a very poor and amazingly unimaginative appointment. You never know though, something might just click and he may get something out of the squad which would be just our luck. Stoke fans can hardly be inspired.

Ketsbaia Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 All he has to do is get Stoke up to their normal level, as their squad should be doing better. If they don't get 4 points from Huddersfield (h) and Watford (h) double-header, it doesn't look good for them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NUFC_Chris Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Think he'll do better than most seem to think. Hodgson was pretty uninspiring for Palace and he turned it around. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Them beating Huddersfield isn't us screwed anyway if it does happen. Huddersfield aren't going well and still lack a good team themselves. Only a point between us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stottie Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 For Villa in PL P101 W25 D26 L50 F98 A164 Pts 101 1.00 Pts/game Since Villa, for Blackburn/Wolves in Championship P30 W10 D8 L12 F31 A31 Pts 38 1.27 Pts/game P30 W12 D5 L13 F35 A37 Pts 41 1.37 Pts/game He may do okay, but his record does not point to it.

timeEd32 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Happy with that. There’s a lot about them that reminds me of our 08-09 squad that seemed too good on paper to go down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Aye, Stoke are definitely in the too good to go down category, but their goal difference and goals conceded stats are making me think that they might just go down this season like. It would be a bit of a weird one considering some of the players they have. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 If we fail to finish above Stoke with lambert I'm done with football They have far more ability in their squad than we do, so it wouldn't exactly be a surprise. Crap manager or not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 About as good as we could hope for. I think it depends on how it starts for him at Stoke. They have essentially replaced Mark Hughes with Mark Hughes MK2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
