He hasn’t been promoted from the championship in about 12 years. | | | |

Yep. He was poorly treated by some of our fans, but to the outside world he did a sold but unspectacular job here, not the sort of thing to get ambitious clubs queuing up for his services. | |

So what? It's not like he's had 12 years at a club with a realistic chance of promotion is it? | |

Really? All I ever heard from other fans was that he was massively overachieving with us and we'd have been foolish to get rid of him. | | | |

It was inferred in your post that hiring Mick was a golden ticket to promotion - I was just replying that he hasn't done it in a long time. | | | |
Mick set to take over at Apoel Nicosia on 13:46 - Oct 30 with 2104 views | Jermynblue | It will be interesting to see how well he does out there. In the past he has suggested that he has never had the opportunity to manage a team which has a chance of winning the league. Well, here is his chance, albeit in Cyprus. I feel in recent years he had become more concerned about not losing games rather than winning games (a point is a prisoner which you don't let go etc). At Apoel he won't be able to set up that way even if they have had a disappointing start to the season. | | | |

Wouldn’t it have been easier and cheaper to do that in Ireland? | |

So posts the biggest numbskull of all. What's stopping you going over to that football hot bed and giving him a big kiss? | | | |

How many times has he been relegated from the Championship in that time? | |

Well, I suppose it's a better watermark of competence than 'buys beers for the fans, gets his clubs relegated'? | |

2009 which is 11 years ago. One year longer ago than Lambert last got a promotion on his CV. | |

And here lies the problem... His style of play will not get you promoted. He has done some decent jobs in his time but is now yesterday's man. He will never get a Premier or championship job again. | | | |

I think he would get a top 6 Championship team promoted, no trouble. | |
