No one find it intriguing that one of our best performances of the season has come a few days before the 'big meeting'.
Could it be the players know, and Lambert asked them to give it their all in his final game? Or maybe they are just relieved and playing freely again.

Yes very intriguing, thankfully also coincides with Lennon's resignation. |  |

Not so sure a lack of effort has ever been a problem. I think the more solid performances are simply the result of a more solid set-up with 2 non-nonsense defenders, 2 strikers fairly centrally and the ability to play more direct more often ... instead of fannying around with it at the back all the time or trying to build long-range attacks involving most of the team.
It’s a lot more simple for the players, and to work as a team, than whatever it was we were trying to do against Northampton. |  |

I do agree with the solid set up comment. The team selection and formation has been what we've needed but do think they seem to be playing with a lot more fight yesterday and even Saturday.
I do believe something is happening though, and id say that's why he was moody last night. | | | |

I've noticed how our improved performances (Copyright Badger) have coincided with the landing of the Mars rover. Which is as clear a piece of evidence that you need to prove Martian mind control imo. |  |

So is Lambert really onto something with his selection from Town's 50 odd players or is this yet another false dawn? Many of us thought the Blackpool performance - with a totally different set up - was a silver lining, but it didn't last long. One positive was Lambert picking an unchanged starting XI. When we've had a fairly settled team we've generally done OK. |  |

....on the back of possibly the worst performance ever, against Northampton, so an improvement of some sort was inevitable and a decent performance against a Hull team that put in their worst performance of the season.
It's all relative.
I wouldn't read too much into it.
Lambert out. |  |

Are you suggesting that it's down to Mars that the players are working harder, resting in between matches and playing better?
In which case there could be something in that Mars helps you work, rest and play? | |

But still he stayed... |  |

Don't forget, over a whole season, it's not a sprint, it's a snickers... or something. | |

It seems since the news of the big meeting broke, Lambert's changed the lineup, gone more direct and we've played much better.
Could it be the fabled 'Evans told him the way to play' being reversed now Lambert's gone anyway, as a kind of 'I told you so - this is what we'd have had if you'd just let me get on with managing the team' moment?
A parting swipe, essentially? |  |

Reminds me when Ted Dexter, Chairman of Selectors, explained away a heavy England defeat by declaring that "Venus may be in the wrong juxtaposition to somewhere else". I'm sure Lord Ted was right! | |
