Lambert resigned from Norwich. Going to Villa. Metal Mickey favourite for the Norwich job. As for Cardiff anyones guess. Interesting all the promoted managers Warnock, Lambert Rodgers all gone. Will it be the same in 12 months?
Poyet to Swans? Coppell to Brighton?

Metal Mickey? Don't get the reference m8.

How about Brian Mc to Norwich?

Jackson Corner Poyet to Swans? Coppell to Brighton?


I reckon Malky Mackay to Norwich. Poyet to Swans sounds a good fit, Coppell back at Brighton is a good shout.....he always said he had unfinished business there, only left them last time to come to Reading because we had the facilities in place and he clearly has the taste for it again as he is involved at Crawley.

Sorry Floyd I meant Malky to Norwich, I think he used to play for them? SC always felt guilty about leaving Brighton, but Farmer was a million miles away then. He would be a perfect fit if Poyet leaves. No coincidence he is plying his trade a stones throw from the Amex!

Norwich City boss Paul Lambert has said speculation he could leave Carrow Road is "absolute nonsense"

Norwich have rejected Lambert's resignation request. So that's pretty much him confirmed for Villa then.

Graeme Jones is clear favourite for Swansea job




He's Wigan assistant manager, I had to look it up too

Bold, bold move to entrust the fortunes of a Premier League club in it's second season on a man with no managerial experience.

Still, he knows the ethos of the club, a fair few of the players and how they like to play football so could well pan out ok.

But he has Swansea links ....................... like Terry Connor at Wolves, Brendan Rodgers at Reading.

Do I feel sorry for Swansea ? NO.

Norwich have this front of being a great "family" club but recently some stories have made me think they aren't all rosey underneath.

Yep, can see them capitul8ing now.

Naaarch want Neil Lennon as their next manager. Should be the nail in the coffin.

If the Holt issue is anything to go by, Norwich might suffer an RFC-like case of second season syndrome. Failure to invest in the playing squad - and that includes offering their standout player a worthy deal - might cost them.

Norwich and Swansea could be shambolic next season which means we might finish third bottom :D

Anyone else a tad worried that Brian's head may be turned by a bigger club if we do well in our first season back?

That's twice in one week now.

Friday's Legacy Lambert confirmed as Villa manager.


So that's Rodgers, Lambert and Warnock from last year.

We'd better improve McD's contract and quick.

On the other hand, he could be on the end of a 'contract' is he crosses the Zingers
