Sibierski Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 They are only still holding on because it's fodder they're facing and home ties are just enough. If they faced Bilbao next round they would've been going out. Frankfurt game will be close, but one that may favour Spurs because they're just as open as they are. So if it's you attack, we attack, that's Spurs best chance of winning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 What the heck?! One of their heroes leaving for a second division Saudi side. My word. Well that thread on their forums will be an interesting read, as they love the Saudi's so much I remember reading that he turned us down due to the financial package on offer, so this kind of makes sense, as I'm sure they will be paying him loads.

Pilko Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 loyal Palace man Dougie getting absolutely weighed in by a second division team of no-marks in Saudi, that'll piss those bang average twats and their weird fans off no end. Wonder who's gonna replace him? Pards is available. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mouldy_uk Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Quick trawl of the Palace forums (feel dirty!), and quite a few of their fans seem to think we are behind it, and that he will soon be coming here in a few months after some sort of FFP sleight of hand Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaizero Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Just realized Frank Lampard's got a 13-3-5 record in the league since taking over at Coventry, that's a PPG average of 2.00... If stretched over an entire season, that's 96 point – which was enough for direct promotion all of the five most recent Champo seasons before the current one, would've won the league two out of five times as well. Does this imply that, god forbid, Lampard might actually possess some tactical knowledge and acumen? Or is it just a flash in the pan freak run of form? If anyone that keeps a better track of the Championship than I do (which wouldn't take much) could enlighten me about which of the alternatives it is, I'd appreciate it 🙏🏼 Until someone tells me otherwise, as I'm not exactly about to go look at Coventry highlights or keep any more track of the Championship than currently (which'll likely be checking in on the standings in 3-4 weeks time) to figure out if Lamps actually has some previously unknown/unseen managerial talent or not Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nine Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 (edited) I’m not sure Lampard should have ever been considered a bad manager (unlike Gerrard). He has had appointments at scatty clubs and still done generally okay-good, I do feel that a club like Coventry is a good fit for him to. Be interesting to see how they do at PL level if he can get them up within another year, as that is the level that he still needs to prove he belongs at. I think he’s avoided another bad circumstance type of job like he walked into at Everton and his interim Chelsea spell. Must be nice to work without some of the insane pressure he would have felt there. Edited March 20 by Nine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibierski Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Thing that’s in Frank favour, he improves players. Shown it at Derby and Chelsea with the younger players. Everton a bad move for him, because that’s a side that’s downwards and just scrapping. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 I'm sure he's a sound bloke but Sean Dyche comes across like the exact dinosaur English manager he's perceived. There's barely anything he says that I agree with here and more than a smattering of condescension and excuse making for shit English managers like himself. He infers the Eddie Howes success is because of money, or at least goes out of his way to make that point. Who was the last footballer who got better under Sean Dyche?

They waited after a break and a loss to Chelsea to sack Cooper and they waited after a break and a loss to Palace to sack Rodgers.
