[Archived] Next Manager

[roverandout]

Me too hopefully

[Ewooduknow]

Venkys mean business.. Only took 5 fecking years and £120m down the drain..

[Leonard Venkhater]

Listen pal, we all seem to be on-board with the appointment of Lambert. So we need something to bloody bicker about. Just do the decent thing, accept you're the fall guy and take your bleeding medicine.

Brilliant!

[jodrell]

Thank you. That's spot on. If someone did say that I wouldn't even post it, never mind a post maybe saying "I was told by a coach". There's no secrecy behind this story, 90% of the media are aware of it. Also let's be honest of I had of put "someone told me" I would received a backlash with what a load of trash etc, that I wouldn't even bother posting if I couldn't quote the person who informed. Source was probably the wrong word to use to be fair.

personally it does not bother me if people do not quote who told them, they either beleve the story or they do not. in fact i would trust them more.

[magicalmortensleftpeg]

Very surprised. Concerned that Venkys would make another terrible appointment however Lambert would be a brilliant addition.

[T J Hooker]

The real question is- What does ABBEY think of it all?

Maybe nows a good time for a brfcc amnesty on banned members whilst there's an air of positivity around

I bet the poor sod has passed out on his keyboard. We can only hope he didn't land on his caps lock key otherwise we'll never hear him!

Agree with this.

Something positive bringing fans back together and behind the club is long overdue

OK I still haven't voted and will not until it's a done deal - then I'll claim they were always my first choice. Not much to bicker about but it's a start - I'm sure it can be bettered. Oh one more, I'm sorry it's not Pearson, part of me wanted to see that mix when it went pear shaped and also hear him tell Wheelcock that's he's an Ostrich's arse.

[donnermeat]

20k for the Wednesday game possibly? I'd like to think so anyway.

Even if this all goes to plan, I would not wipe out one word that Abbey has written!

[47er]

Abbey isn't banned is he?

[adsfortheblues]

Fair play buddy.

[MGAndy]

Can we start a new vote thread as this one seems to be a done deal....

Do you want Abbey to return?

Yes or No

No fence option

[Amo]

Abbey isn't banned is he?

Self-imposed exile.

We don't get an experienced manager for five years and then we get two at once! Irvine and Lambert were of course managing prem league clubs last season. Major coup for the club and the best thing Venkys have done since buying the club.

[Ewooduknow]

A proper manager is Lambert. Will build us from the back IMO, so expect initially some hard-to-beat type performances, not unlike the 'bully boys' days of Hughes early days as boss. I wouldn't either expect wholesale changes from bowyers last starting line up to begin with.

[T J Hooker]

and I don't think it should be underestimated how big of a bonus it is that the 2 assistants that Lambert has reportedly chosen are both very well affiliated with the club and will know their way around the grounds and stadium, very important when you consider we don't really have any veteren players, coaches, staff or owners at the club to show them around and help them find their feet.

Last time we appointed 2 top flight bosses as manager and first team coach was Kenny and ray Harford. Would settle for a repeat of what followed!

[roverandout]

Henrik Larsson as striker coach??

[yoda's brother]

is shaw still here ?

who will do the presser, barry white ??

[T J Hooker]

i dont think we even have enough strikers in the team to warrant a striker coach and Rhodes doesn't really need much help in that department

[Tom]

Dreamland to think that in a week we can go from Bowyer to Lambert and Irvine

A move on paper much better than most would expect to be possible

[Ewooduknow]

Used to watch Alan Irvine for rovers reserves in my early days as a rovers fan, was a really tricky winger, good to watch. Not really relevant I know, but just thought of it.

Irvine was appointed as a youth coach at rovers by Kenny.
