When did you want Lambert out? 20:39 - Feb 19 with 4956 viewsMattinLondon

For me, I gave him the benefit of the doubt time after time and I fell for his PR (I’m not the only one). But I think I wanted him gone seven last season was curtailed.

Was wondering when everyone else wanted him gone.

Try not to brag that you saw through him quite early - we have Bluefish for that.

I wanted him gone when we gave him the 5 years (not months!) contract. His time was clearly up at that point and we gave him that contract. Amazing.

A year of almost entirely crap football later, and somehow he's still here.

The moment he joined. Had been a horrific manager for years and should never have found another job at a reputable level.

Prior to Wycombe away on New Year’s Day 2020. Instead we gave him a five year contract.

Ironically it was the Oxford game last year that was the final straw for me. I was prepared to see what happened this year but the wheels soon came off. Time and time again he has lost us games with inept tactics and the inability to change these during matches. The recent things coming about how he mismanages players is just embarrassing.

When we got relegated. Form worse than Hurst’s and the Everything’s Gonna be Alright nonsense got on my nerves.

Luckily the 5 months is up. Maybe that's where Marcus went wrong...

I don’t think that there is any shame in not wanting a manager to be sacked. But unfortunately, sometimes it happens - more so with Evans being the owner.

Maybe that is why PL is unhappy, he has not been paid since last May.

With everything that went on in 2020 I still think the weirdest thing than happened all that year was that contract.

I allowed Lambert some leeway after the relegation and we did start well the following season. What turned it for me was the 0-0 at Wimbledon, following on from the string of losses in late Jan/early Feb. It was just so feeble, against a team in 20th place. Then cemented by the further losses from Oxford to the premature end of the season.

I gave him a bit of a chance this season, but that was quickly blown away.

Good Lord! Whatever is it?

The moment that sticks most in the memory is standing in the car park at Adams Park and discovering he had been given a contract extension. It was that point I realised that I didn’t want him to be here anymore. I had already formed the view he didn’t want to be here either, so extending the misery seemed futile.

March 2019.
He'd gotten us relegated in feeble fashion and his 'free hit' where he could have been building for the following season was being obviously wasted by playing hapless loanees and endless dicking about with formations and styles.

Just about the time Evans gave him a five year contract(!). Lincoln away last season was an end of manager performance, or really should have been. Given he was here at the start of this season he got another chance, that lasted until November for me when it was clear we were starting to struggle.

I think Lambert should have done more in get relegation season but maintain my view at the time that the damage was done by Hurst in the transfer window.

in all fairness, he's done nothing to justify getting paid since.

There's no doubt he had a bad hand dealt him, but he still played it appallingly.

It’s been a slow drift but I think I gave up on him after the Hull/Charlton double header. But he was very lucky the summer came early.

Same as you. I don't tend to like sacking managers mid-season and as PR Paul was still in his first full season I wanted to give him the opportunity to see it through despite the fact we were on the slide. But as soon as the season was finished early and we ended up 11th I wanted him gone. No ITFC manager should be able to survive an 11th placed finish in the third tier of English football (no matter if it's on PPG or not). This season was always a waste of time imo whilst Lambert was here.

I thought he was a breath of fresh air. He GOT us. But at the end of the day, our "friends" up north were right. As time goes on, you see his flaws. And now his flaws are swallowing whatever good he brought to the club.

Paul, I really wanted it to work, for you and for us. But it's not. It's time to go.

From a few weeks before he got the 5 year deal.

I gave him the free hit, I think he did enough in relegation just around the place a d proud of how club reacted to it and think that is what drive our great start....but once form turned you could tell he was a busted flush and couldn’t turn it round
