BlyBlyBabes 0 Posted October 22, 2009 Thursdays are slow days, so here goes.From a colleague of mine.Why has Paul Lambert been so successful so far?Because the players can''t understand a darned word he says, and just get on with doing what they know best!Question is though, should he get elocution lessons so we can all understand him? Hmmmm...... They''ve been asking that about Alex Ferguson for 25 years or so now.........so hush, if it isn''t broke don''t fix it, I reckon! OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
