Great man management 13:23 - Jan 22 with 3205 views | itfcjoe | As posted last Sunday..... Any news on jackson being out of squad by itfcjoe 17 Jan 2021 7:40Found out at 1pm he wasn’t in the squad, same as Huws, management team didn’t speak to them about it.
Guess he’ll now be willing to run through brick walls for them next week now Norwood done his hamstring again.

Don’t forget the shuffling. Hopefully we can now expect our back 4, when shuffling across, to shuffle correctly. From Taylor’s post Swindon match comments, we can only surmise that they were shuffling this way when they should have been shuffling that way and shuffling that way when they should have been shuffling this way. | |

That ‘style’ such as it is may well align with Lambert’s philosophy but still, could our club be any more dysfunctional?

Great man management on 14:15 - Jan 22 with 2947 views | LankHenners | Another example of how he's/they've lost interest in the task at hand and are just going through the motions. We had the Bart interview where he talked about Hurst and Doig having a very Sunday league style approach to management as they just read out the team on the day when everyone arrived and that's how the players knew whether they were playing or not. Then Lambert came in and was much better as he did all this in advance and explained to players why they weren't playing etc. That we've regressed back to this with no intervention from the owner is so stupid. I know the atmosphere/relationship between players and staff hasn't been great for a while but this sums up the arrogance of Lambert who basically can't be @rsed to do half the things expected of him and is just happy taking ME's money. | |

Why appoint a manager who's never, ever been known for his passing football? I watched a heck of a lot of his Wycombe team and they were a safety first, direct team. Norwich were a high intensity, direct team, good on the counter. Villa, he set them as a counter attacking team. It's just frankly embarrassing, if Evans wants to play this way then appoint a manager who has a track record of playing that way or someone who is willing to do it and knows how to. The last appointment we were after was Neil Warnock last December time, if that's to be believed. When has Warnock been known as a passing manager? It's all just bullsh1t, there is no vision or clue what he wants, if the bloke he wanted to replace Lambert is Neil Warnock. (I don't have anything against Warnock, he would do a fine job here but if you have this philosophy of passing football, then you don't appoint him) | | | |

Does seem a bit random given Huws is unlikely to be anywhere near the starting lineup and Jackson is likely injured anyway. | | | |

Great man management on 16:50 - Jan 22 with 2450 views | clive_baker | Isn't it so mad that Evans continues to invest in the playing squad, but ignores the need to give them the infrastructure in which to thrive. Facilities, manager, coaching, medical etc. Such a bonkers approach to football club ownership. It's not really a lack of absolute investment per se, it's just a complete lack of investment in the right areas and allocation of resources in the right way. The management is a complete circus. I've said it before and I will again, one of our best players in the club hasn't had a 1 to 1 with Lambert for over a year. Dropping players without letting them know. He's utterly incompetent, cant man manage at all, and doesn't look or sound like he gives a t0ss anymore. I mean, he said it himself, he doesn't care if he's sacked. Ultimately what football management comes down to is man management and an ability to motivate players. For all the talk of recruitment, shape and tactics, we need an engaged squad that's hungry for promotion. If Burley or big Joe had've dropped a player he would've had them in his office in the week and explained why. They would've come out 20 minutes later agreeing with them, desperate to get back in the following week and stay there. It's all so stale at the club now. Lambert out Cowley in | |

Yep - I know you've spoken to people who will tell you what things are like - but 90% of the fanbase wouldn't believe how bad it is behind the scenes with regards to management if you told them. It's beyond parody, it's just totally wrong and the fact Evans is allowing it to happen is a massive concern for his judgement. There is no relationship between Lambert and the majority of the squad, none at all. | |

It's a twinge, that's all. Regardless of our injury record (which I admit is extremely poor), let's not forget with the volume of games being played at a short space of time that twinges and pulls are more likely and problematical. That's no different to any club right now and if you look at any time, their squads are all suffering the same types of injuries. And when you have a player coming back from a succession of injuries (whether poor medical care or not getting sufficient 'rest' between games), it's prudent not to risk more than necessary. | | | |

Yeah, absolute car crash. Robbing a living completely. Evans only has himself to blame though, in dishing out the 5 year contract he has utterly snookered himself. The biggest frustration is the timing of it all. It's a basket case of a league and we've coincided our timing of spectacular mismanagement with when we actually have a squad that could do something. It's like sitting at a poker table with a pair of Kings, but they're being held by a 5 year old kid who doesn't know the rules. #LambertOut #CowleyIn | |

I don't think the point is the nature of the injury or disputing that it exists. I think the point is the general ridiculousness of Lamberts approach to man management. That he sacked off 2 senior players from his squad last week without having the courtesy to make them aware, who he might later rely on. Proper man managers would sit them down and hear them out, explain it, explain the busy schedule and they'll get a chance and he expects them to take it when it comes. Etc. Instead he'll scratch his head and wonder why players aren't engaged and require 'honest chats' in the changing room every other weekend. It's toxic. He's a busted flush and he has to go ASAP. | |
