Why FIVE years? 09:37 - Feb 27 with 2640 views | SamWhiteUK | I get that Evans wanted to show that he had faith in Lambert and the long-term plan, but where in the hell did the number five come from? That must be one of the longest contracts ever signed at this level of football. Why not a 2 or 3 year deal, with extensions? If Evans has to cut it short, which he really should do, he would look a lot less of a pillock, and lose less money, if it were only 2 years early as opposed to 4. Maybe a five year deal is linked to the five year plan, which I'm not convinced we've ever left year one of. |  | | |  |

And much like the USSR we'll accomplish it 18 months early, then realise that everything we've produced was terrible quality... |  |

Why FIVE years? on 13:37 - Feb 27 with 2431 views | Herbivore | We don't have a 5 year plan do we? I think we did under Roy or Jewell or maybe Mick, but pretty sure it's now just a 5 point plan. |  |

Five-year plan was under Burley. As you say, was a five-point plan which was announced a couple of years back. |  | |  |

Is that why we signed Tito Nsiala? |  |

Why FIVE years? on 13:40 - Feb 27 with 2412 views | evansblue | I told my mates off back in the day for running on the pitch and joining in the Duncan out demo. I stuck up for Mick until I was blue in the face. I know it was dull football but his hands were tied. I also appreciate after Norwich away there was no going back. I thought Hurst could have had a bit longer. After five years of MM it was always going to take time. BUT, Lambert is the most clueless and useless manager in my time supporting Ipswich. We were 3 points off 4th bottom when he joined, he has had three transfer windows, he works with them every day on the training ground and we are a shambles. I have never wanted a manager out but I want him gone ASAP. He has got away lightly and the minute anyone questions him he gets all aggressive. The bloke got a £3m pay off from Villa so he doesn't need the cash. Get someone new in, anyone. Someone for whom this job means something. someone with a plan and someone who cares. |  | |  |

So to put into perspective; At ITFC- John Duncan win record = 45.3% Mick McCarthy win record = 37.6% |  | |  |

And according to trusty wikipedia Lambert is on 28%, which is the real issue I assume? |  |

Ok 28. Cheers. I don't believe a word he says, the rotation was arrogant and confusing for all and bringing on Sears in the 90th minute v Oxford summed him up. Anyway he won't be here too much longer. The fans rule and have found him out. |  | |  |

Why FIVE years? on 14:51 - Feb 27 with 2275 views | Doctor_Earman | There's pretty much zero chance that Lambert will see out that contract. Evans will have to act in order to stop ticket sales from plummeting. It will be a massive U-turn and about face from Evans and will be yet another example of his utter incompetence. |  | |  |
