I'm not saying that Lambert should get the push, but... 16:50 - Feb 13 with 930 views | WeWereZombies | What if Joe Royle could be persuaded to take him out on the lash tomorrow night, get him into the most positive of 'they score five, fine, we'll score six' moods. Then deposit the squad in a freshly dug earthen tunnel, actually make them dig it, and at ten to three on Saturday Royle drops Lambert off at the ground and Lambert goes to the mouth of the tunnel to start his team talk with 'Come on lads, we can win this'... | |

I'm not saying that Lambert should get the push, but... on 17:07 - Feb 13 with 881 views | Moriarty | Willie Duggan, a former Irish rugby player, had a theory on how to test a player. Go on the piss until early hours, up early, play a match and see who’s up for it. Who can put in the hard yards on a cold sh!tty pitch when head and body are saying “no”. Old school. I think too many of our players over the years have been in a comfort zone. Royle did a good job. Only 3 have got us to the playoffs. Royle and Mick are 2. Labelled dinosaurs by some. And GB. What we are and what we need as a club is now on the line. GB is the only man for the job, not just for on the pitch reasons. This is about our club’s dna and preserving it. Or as Butch said, our heritage. | |

GB has been out of management for longer than Jewell was when he came in. I really don't think he'd be up to the job of manager. DoF with a younger man under him yes, manager? God no. | |

I accept your point. However, GB’s genuine passion for the club is, imho, essential, both for us as supporters, for players, the staff and dare I say it, ME. GB could have been out of the game since he marked Georgie Best. He’d still get things better organized on the pitch than PL. | |

And that's exactly why he should be DoF, not manager. He can use that position to set the whole tone of the club from first team matters to transfers to youth policy. And as for 'better than Lambert'. Frankly, you could probably make a decent case for saying that Keane would have been better than him, right now. | |

I see your point. But I’d go GB for 18 months. It’s probably a moot discussion anyway. Unless we lose Saturday perhaps? | |
