Lambert is now going out of his way to try and get the sack isn’t he? He calls those who protested against him “not real fans”, he then none to subtly criticised the owner and then throws a hand grenade into the squad by calling out Nolan and Jackson. He’s just staying the right side of constructive dismissal but he’s getting dangerously close to the line now. If he had any care or respect for the fans, as he claimed when he arrived, he would hand his in resignation and refuse to take no for an answer, just as Jewell did. The fact he’s continuing to poison every aspect of the club we love shows that he is purely in it for himself, and he doesn’t care who gets hurt, upset or, in the case of the club, destroyed along the way. The fact that Evans can’t or won’t make a decision based on the above is even more worrying. He has given too much time to every single manager and has not reigned any of them when they put a step out of line. Other than Mick every pick has been a disaster and, in truth, the only one I have an iota of sympathy for him over is Hurst - and even then I think part of that was down to a lack of leadership from above giving an inexperienced manager too much room to manoeuvre without checks. Lambert needs to go and we need to bring someone in akin to Joe Royle - but above that Evans needs to start giving a damn if he doesn’t want the debt to continue to grow. | |
