Anyone who puts the word legend in front of Barry Horne is obviously a little nuts

More ad hominem points - illustrating the case well….

Frank has a much better win rate with us than Martinez had in his last two seasons at our club….

Norwich chose Dean Smith over him

And look how that’s ended.

Though I think smith is a better manager

The fool on the hill

The players and staff are working very hard with order and discipline

Yet there are thousands sitting round the pitch, contributing a relatively small amount of funding yes, and some positive support, but also in some ways doing little to add value and in some cases actively pulling the club down - I’m not the first to observe that

The fans play a key role in setting the short termist culture - singling out and blaming manager after manager, rather than seeing their own lack of resilience as a key part of the problem

There is much room for improvement in the fanbase, but requires some to start taking responsibility for that - you could be one to help lead the change?

I hate to admit it but our fans’ negativity isn’t helpful.

The time we go down that is a point with no return. Look at Leeds. It took them like 18 years to come back up.

Absolutely.

To show how far we have fallen.
We are 5/2 at home to Brighton next week. They are evens

Sadly, pathetic is the only word to describe us currently.

We can all keep dreaming of attracting pochettino no chance he’d come now maybe at the start of the season with the promise of money and Gordon looking like an asset but he’s worth about £10m now. Be lucky to attract Scott Parker we’re that bad

Fans are the only reason we stayed up plus Richy goals, we have no Richy, we are more then likely going down because we have a absolutely awful board running the club.

Should Frank get sacked after Brighton on the 3-4-5th of Jan, we be lucky to have a new manager by Jan 31st. These idiots in charge who think EVERYTHING rosey will mess about and we end up with the WRONG manager again

I’ve been clear since the start that I don’t like lampard, I think he’s thin skinned and venal. He’s not a very good manager either…

However, now is not the time to change

If not now (when in my opinion it should have been after the Bournemouth fiasco) at the start of a transfer window? When?
In my opinion a manager comes if they can affect change in terms of personnel and coaching - if you take one of those options away you become a club potentially on the verge of relegation and the only thing a manager can affect is the confidence and performance levels of existing players. No one wants a relegation on their CV.
