division play offs...in game management is dire and post match analysis delusional... pull trigger pronto or it will soon get very very toxic at Portman Road. |  | | |  |

Only if fans continue to attack whatever manager we have.
Have a look at how long it took SBR
Perhaps we didn't have this sense of entitlement back then | | | |

Not going to happen, 5 year deal, he won’t walk, Evans won’t pay.
He will be here long term. |  |

It's definitely entitlement.
Just because we have one of the biggest budgets and one of the best squads in the league doesn't mean we have the right to get promoted. Look at Sunderland, Portsmouth et al. Sheff United spent 6 years in League 1. |  | | |

...... likewise Leeds and Sheffield Utd fans . The latter now enjoying PL life after 6 years in League One. Did they spend mega bucks to get out of this division ? |  |

No one is saying we have some divine right. Read your post back. We do have probably the biggest budget, football is money these days and we should be up at the top. We're not even in the playoffs ffs. |  |

And look at how their managers that failed fared...
(Portsmouth is a rubbish comparison btw, for obvious reasons) |  |

There is a world of difference between playing well, finishing 3rd and losing in the playoffs versus finishing 8th due almost entirely due to management incompetence.
Lambert is not a new manager ‘learning’ and ‘developing’. He is an experienced manager doing a good job of looking like he is forgetting anything he ever learnt.
Entitlement is expecting ME to pony up more and more money to fund our hobby. Entitlement is not expecting one of the most bloated (and wage heavy) squads ever to grace Division 3 to be competitive after the manager has had over a year and 3 transfer windows to improve things. |  | | |

Completely agree, if we had maintained a settled style of play all season and lost in the play offs it would be very different.
Once teams worked out that they didn't need to show us any respect our form has dropped off significantly.
IMO we have six players that would walk into most League One Teams:
Wolf
Downes
KVY
Garbutt
Huws
Jackson
In addition to them we have Nolan, Norwood, Keane, Dozzell. All talented players, especially at this level along with Sears and Bishop to get back to fitness.
Anything other than top six is a catastrophic failure - further compounded by the loss of advantage we had after our excellent start.
5 year deals should be irrelevant, he would have failed to meet our basic primary target. | |

Yeah, it's definitely the fans' fault. And please don't compare Lambert with Robson in any sense, it's deeply insulting to the memory of the great man. [Post edited 26 Feb 2020 9:43]

They're both in their second year here (albeit Pompey had a season down here during their decline too). Both did better than us in their first year here as well, genuinely fighting for automatic promotion, making the play offs. | |

We are in the third division and look like we will finish mid table. We have won 4 games out of the last 22.
Supporters are perfectly right to expect us to finish in at least in a play off position in this league, and we should certainly let the Manager and owner know it is not acceptable if we fall short of that.
If we as supporters don't set the bar high in terms of ambition, how can we expect the club to? | | | |

I think you're right, and probably the most influential way to have your voice heard is to vote with your 'bums on seats'.
I think a drop to 10-12k at this level with impact the finances drastically at this level, Evans would sit up and take notice. | |

Not to mention inaccurate. Sir Bobby had a couple of dozen games as a manager under his belt when he came here. Lambert had literally hundreds. |  |

I will seriously consider not renewing if we start next season in League one with Lambert in charge. I know many others who feel the same.
The problem is that Evans would probably just double down and make even more cuts and reduce the playing budget accordingly. Then we are left with a hugely overpaid but underachieving Manager with an even weaker squad at his disposal. And the decline just continues. | | | |

These throwaway cliches about entitlement are hilarious .... yes let's look at Sir Bobby ... he was managing in the top flight ... the old Premier League ...
Under bumbling broken Lambert we've been relegated to the third division and are heading for one of our lowest league finishes in nearly 70 years.
It's an absurd comparison .... also have a look at any 'big' club that's stayed more than one season in the third tier ... Leeds, Sheff Utd, Soton, Forest, Charlton, Wednesday ...
They were all promoted from the third division with a different manager from the one who took them there.
Most Town fans know a busted flush when they see one. [Post edited 26 Feb 2020 13:02]

Yeah, and they kept sacking those failing managers until they found the right one. They’re now on the brink of champions league, bet they wish they stuck with David Weir though. | | | |
