Richard you are entitled to your opinion and you set out why you hold it very eloquently, I like you and the other posters who are still behind him, want Lambert to be a success at our club, Sadly I cannot see it turning out that way.
He has the best players he has ever had in his time here, however they do not appear to have a clue how to win a game of football. They are static, No movement, no runs off the ball, no leadership.
While I agree that the pundits are looking for an easy story you cannot argue with some of the things they say about us. I personally cannot see us scoring 20 goals this season which will probably give Lambert the full set of records that hopefully will never be beaten. Unless he does something to change the way we play we will be relegated - if you dont score you dont win and unless our defence improve dramatically on yesterdays performance we will struggle to get another 10 points.
Both you and I are old enough to remember Billy McNeil's days and sadly it all looks to familiar.
