That paid off quite well for Lambert last night 09:25 - Sep 18 with 4219 views | SomethingBlue | Probably had one or two too many players struggling for minutes/match fitness on there by the end (Keane showed some very nice flashes but was never ready for an hour) but that 45 minutes is surely the way forward for us in a lot of these games. Utterly dominant and not just with the ball — Skuse, Downes and Huws all looked strong physically, won headers, ensured not much came back at us. We have such a surfeit of good midfielders that we do need to get as many of them on the pitch as possible and I can't believe that would not be Lambert's plan. Expect a lot more selections like last night's now Huws and Nolan are up to it. Second half was a chore but there are no two ways about it — 18 points at this stage is an excellent start to the season. There will be bumps along the way, maybe even on Saturday which I suspect won't be an especially pretty game, but we've set ourselves up really well when it could have gone quite differently. | |

It's not desperate, it's quite easy. | |

It is not an exaggeration to say that all clubs try to avoid relegation. As all clubs try to avoid relegation then it would suggest that being relegated is not seen as a good thing. | | | |

Well clearly not, because you've failed to do it. | |

You seem to have turned him full Kevin Keegan in the face of your Alex Ferguson. Lovely stuff. | |

Again, you're building a straw man. I've never said clubs DON'T try to avoid relegation. Your exaggeration is saying "it's not seen as a good thing." No. And non-one's said otherwise. You've gone to the complete extreme opposite of "disaster" to make your point. | |
