b6bloke Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Spurs vacancy coming up soon, oh dear.I can see how you could be worried, I mean Hughton did used to play for them and is a young well thought of manager who may be looking for a much bigger club, but surely he hasn't had enough of Mcnasty yet to shit on you? Well no doubt they're an honourable club, so compo would be paid without the need of a tribunal. 8) Whizz I undersdtand why you love this site so much when your main footy forum is discussing the hose pipe ban! hosepipe ban!

El-Reacho Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Agreed, I'm concerned about this too but I'm quite confident that at least we'll go out there to try to win these games and we'll definitely be more exciting. A part of me worries that we may have resorted back to familiar territory in terms of an approach and tactics and that we missed an opportunity what with players already having been let go and the wage bill being a bit more manageable, it might have been a really good time right now to bring in a manager who changes our style into something more attacking and possession-based. I'm not having a go at Lambert before he's started, I'm happy we have him. But I'm still just a little concerned, especially since Swansea seem to be close to appointing Michael Laudrup who I was quite keen on for us. I'll back Lambert though and time will tell. I feel the same way too. I'm not expecting us to go to extremes and start trying to emulate Barcelona but we do need a drastic change in strategy at the club. Lambert's a very good manager and I have no doubt that he won't get us top 8-10 eventually but will he do it using the same methods as MON? As I keep on saying, we need two things: a) Change in style of play and start using the ball more. We don't have to be like Swansea but we're so poor at passing and moving that it's embarrassing. Scout abroad as well at home. Not as important as changing our style of play but still vital. The two points you've outlined there go hand in hand. The only player MON brought in from abroad just so happened to be a 6'6" battering ram who was lethal in the air. Other than that he bought UK bred players who fitted his classically British way of playing. Full backs who are there to defend not attack. Destructive midfielders who are capable of getting the ball to pacey wingers who are there to attack on the break and supply early crosses to strong forwards. If we alter the way we play we should go to were players that fit that style of play are. So if we're after attacking full backs, ball playing midfielders, and creative attackers to suit a new way of setting the team up then we will (hopefully) look to where they are brought up that way.

CannockVillan Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 As Lambert was on a one year rolling contract that was due to expire why is compensation necessary? Because a one year rolling contract always has 12 months left to run, otherwise its not a rolling contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HolteEndRob Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 He's doing a Q&A at the kit launch. Any idea what has been asked? More than likely a bunch of retarded questions that he couldn't possibly answer. Such as "Alright Paul, what players are you buying?" It's always the same when these Q&A's happen, there's never anyone whose brain is functional asking questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presume they wont join you until compensation is agreed for the two of them as they are on a 12 months rolling contract? When they left ColU to join Lambert at Norwich Karsa & Culverhouse resigned but they dont appear to have done that yet?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
