Can see where he’s coming from in fairness considering we’ve lost one league game in 7 and the local press are asking fans / players if they fear another “collapse”

You can say that this sort of thing is put out a bit cynically to encourage discussion and clicks for the EADT but they know what the public mood is, and that is that there will be a fairly large chunk of people concerned that Lambert has cocked up again. | |

Equally it might give the player's a kick up the arris to not let it happen again. | | | |

Genuinely amazing that some people still don’t realise this As for the wider point, I don’t see what our current record has to do with what some people are fearing could happen in the future. We’d lost 0 in 7 at the start of last year after all, and that quickly unravelled when we finally lost a game | |

Fair enough although in fairness, a club captain is never going to come out and say “yeah it’s because people calling us rubbish on twitter and we’re fed up of it” is he? I’m sure players always have inside jokes about celebrations and tell the media something else! Mick’s “celebration” at Carrow road comes to mind.... | | | |

We fear another collapse and that he'll cock it up because he's spent all of his ITFC career failing. | |

Cheers, think it was Brenner who actually asked about that. What LC said was: “It’s not ideal playing in an empty stadium, is it?” he said [when asked what the celebration was all about]. “It’s so bizarre and I don’t see why we’re playing without fans when last season was ended due to not having fans present. I’d like people to be there and cheering when I volley one in from 20 yards.” | | | |

He would say that though wouldn't he? Clearly it's a vitriolic dig at the softcocks who think the world revolves around them and their egos. | |

And the fact that the first time we’ve gone behind in the league this season resulted in a collapse. (We hardly showed up against Fulham either but they are a team two divisions above us and we played a scratch side) | |

Mick was 100% right. But in all seriousness, not just in this scenario, but do you believe everything players say in the press? E.g. When a player comes out saying they ignore transfer speculation or when a player two foots someone and tells the media they only had eyes for the ball etc? Was more just making a point to say that we’re all grown up enough to realise that players don’t alway tell the truth in interviews! (Sorry Phil) | | | |

Waghorn has literally just done the same in tonight's game. Has Chambers recruited him to make some inaginary point in front of the sky cameras? Sneaky Chambers. | | | |

Good one. Although you seem to have missed the “not just in this scenario” point of what I was trying to say! | | | |

Yes, but saying ‘not just in this scenario’ gives the impression that you still think it’s the case in this scenario, despite it being a joke being performed by players at clubs up and down the land... | |
