Nuff Said 5,131 Posted March 4, 2020 Can't see Evans paying what he would cost. I'm sure he would expect a lot more than Lambert who was pretty much a busted flush. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
City fan 78 Posted March 4, 2020 Warnock isn't a league 1 manager. No way will he drop down. He's premiership championship level. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HertsCanary93 222 Posted March 5, 2020 Can they even afford to sack Lambert? He doesn't seem like the resigning type. If they did cough up the funds to sack him, that would be the end to their transfer kitty for their much needed summer overhaul. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is apparently a clause in his contract that gives them a free sacking if they don't finish in the top 6 so he will almost certainly be sacked at the end of the season or as soon as that isn't mathematically possible. As for 70 year Neil Warnock, I did smile. How low can they possibly get? The problem they have is that no one in the club knows anything about football.

SwindonCanary 455 Posted March 5, 2020 Neil Warnock has retired and has a home in Cornwall, that's a long way to commute ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canarywary 106 Posted March 5, 2020 Warnock always seems to be very complimentary about Norwich. I think he likes us too much to go to Ipswich. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Norwich R Us 59 Posted March 5, 2020 Employing Warnock is basically like employing McCarthy's Dad - Ipswich are just on another level of bad decision making right now. Hilarious! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Warnock has retired about five times, but as soon as the first club comes calling, he can't resist. The bloke lives for football and just can't stay away from it, bless him. I didn't use to like him, but I've warmed to him over the last decade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grando 260 Posted March 5, 2020 In fairness, at that level - and in the unlikely event that Warnock were to go there - he couldn't fail to be an improvement on where they currently are! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly, and he won't resist the opportunity of a big pay-day should he manage to get them into the play-offs. The only thing possible though would be a contract 'til the end of the season, imo. Anything else would be too inconvenient for him. Besides it's Ipswich. I believe he know Evans quite well so the first option might be on. Lambert should have gone by now. He's been dreadful for them and the only way he kept them on his side during last season's momentous flop was with publicity stunts: buying supporters beers, inviting old favourites to the club for a chin wag and forever reminding the fans how fantastic they were and what a great history the club has (3 trophies in the Dark Ages nb.)

There is no point in giving anyone that job just for the remainder of the season. They can't make the play offs now so there is no point Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BroadstairsR 2,163 Posted March 5, 2020 (edited) Probably, but there's an outside (very) chance. It's football, a funny old game. They (TWTD) want it to happen Besides the relationship of Lambert with the fans is rancid if TWTD is anything to go by.I get the impression that if they are thumped by Coventry then the actual crowd present for the next home game will be well under 10,000. A Warnock would keep them coming for the six or seven games left toplay at the 'Loo. Edited March 5, 2020 by BroadstairsR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think Warnock would probably take them up, so fingers crossed he's finally happy to hang up his sheepskin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mason 47 1,379 Posted March 5, 2020 70yo Neil Warnock who is meant to retire at the end of the season, coming back in to manage freefalling Ipswich Town with almost no chance of any success at all? With a spanked budget and a toxic fanbase? A manager that hasn't been involved below Championship level since last century? 😅 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
