TheGunnShow 5,977 Posted November 7, 2021 The other thing people are forgetting with Bodo/Glimt is how fecking remote it is. It's not far off two hours away from Oslo by plane, is the most northern terminus of the Norwegian rail network - and it's north of the Arctic Circle. In other words, it's in the middle of butt-funk blood-y nowhere. You can probably walk it to the airport from the town centre in less than half an hour. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt. Pants 4,267 Posted November 7, 2021 Whilst I can see some positives in appointing Lampard it certainly wouldn't unite the fans. Moreover I'm not sure he would gain the respect of the players who must be shell shocked at the moment. I know little of Knutsen but he seems a proper manager with some pedigree. Whoever it is will have less time than DF and needs to hit the grounding running. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Newtopia 518 Posted November 7, 2021 I really do not know what Webber is planning, a couple of thoughts about Frank; 1) Lampard appears to give young players opportunities, 2) Lampard will attract and inspire good players, 3) Lampard has an ego, will that fit with the club, 4) The bookies are not stupid, Frank may actually fancy the position, 5) Webber likes head coaches, will Frank want that?

What an absolute load of tosh. Some of the nonsense on here today is incredible. You’re absolutely right. Let’s just appoint any ‘high profile ex player’ for the players to fawn and swoon over in admiration, I mean that’s all the ingredients needed for the heat of a relegation battle. Or we could actually just sign a proper coach instead with far more strings to his bow. I can literally just see Frank Lampard walking through the Carrow Rd entrance now having just signed TeemuVanBastens autograph book, and Max Aarons going ‘oh, it’s Frank Lampard’. And that will basically be the end of that thrilling story. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alex Moss 2,165 Posted November 7, 2021 1 hour ago, cambridgeshire canary said: Here we go... Thanks Cambridge, I was curious to see what everyone was on about who had seen the match via the internet and seen the directors box reaction throughout the game. And everyone’s absolutely right, it is certainly painfully obvious that a difficult decision was not long from being cast - given we were winning I think I’d have lumped a bit of a generous wedge on Farke’s fate there and then to be honest with such blatant body language as that. If you watch that clip very carefully you will subtly see Delia take a very deep breath, it was clearly a decision she dreaded making and was certainly not looking forward to what was about to unfold.

Indy 3,307 Posted November 7, 2021 Surely sacking Farke and doing it for “the best chance to stay in the premiership” means they have an experienced manger with either a history of high profile coaching or premier league experience? If you appoint Knutsen then what are you gaining? Might as well appoint Martin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
