This is a game Coventry should've won based on league standints, expensive points dropped in the title race.

Story of their season. Inconsistency. Big wins, poor losses, and 0-0 against poor old Wednesday takes the cake. Boro are really missing Hackney and can't score goals, probably only Ipswich with their games in hand can threaten for the title.

Unless Coventry back Frank, and invest like Sunderland, they’re gonna get dog walked next season. Penny for Lampard’s thoughts on becoming a puppet for BlueCo, it all makes sense really, a legend the fans adore and won’t critique to the same extent as Poundland pep or LinkedIn final boss. Naturally, we’d want him to succeed, so it’s a win win. 😅

Certainly could happen. He has remained on decent terms with Blueco since his term as interim. I can only see it happening in the summer though. I don't think he would want to take over half way through a season like last time. Perhaps they are already trying to line him up to take over this summer.

 
Frank would be better off getting Coventry promoted and having a tilt with them in the Premier League.

Less pressure, lower expectations and he can continue building on what he's started with Coventry.

Has he? He was openly critical of them during and post his last stint here, and the last year or so he has taken almost every podcast as an opportunity to berate BlueCo specifically for a drop in standards.

Time heals all wounds etc. but I don't think he's signing on anything without some seriously iron-clad guarantees.

However if Eghbali was to sign him on a Sporting Director in lieu of the idiot brigade we have, that would be a win.

 
Whether he's up to it is another matter. Managing in the Championship bears no resemblance to the PL.

 
I don't want Lampard back, for his sake and for ours. He's doing well with Coventry, let him finish his job there and let him gain the experience required to build a solid coaching career. For us, what we need right now is an established coach that is going to instil discipline, resilience and a solid tactical framework, together with some backing from the board with mature, established players in key positions. We all know that the board is not going to do that, but Frank should not touch our bench with a barge pole while this lot are running the club.

 
Promotion secured. Fantastic 👌👌 Need him to continue picking up these experience milestones before he even thinks about managing a big club again

 
At some point I want him back, but if he does I want him to be here for a long time. Maybe best to wait until after we're relegated next season.

I'll expand on that somewhat. Maybe best to wait until we are relegated, and (hopefully) Blueco have run to the hills and sold off to escape the irate fans, and we have a new owner....

Pretty much, yeah

 
Huge win for my local team Portsmouth in the Championship last night.

Been struggling all season, but have now put together very timely back to back wins against promotion-chasing Middlesbrough and Ipswich !

Play Up Pompey!

Got a soft spot for Pompey as my nan & granddad lived about 5 minutes away from Fratton Park back in the '70's. Always hope they do well and that's a massive turnaround after the hammering they got from QPR a short while back.

 
Saints are on an unbelievable run under this unknown coach of theirs (Tonda Eckert). Never heard of the bloke until a couple of weeks ago, but blimey, what a job he is doing. Thrashed Wrexham after recent wins against Coventry, Fulham and Arsenal and now on a 16 game unbeaten run. I'm glad City are playing them in the semi-final and not us!!

They are the team in form going into the play-off's but have they peaked too soon? Might all catch up with them, but rather them back in the PL than Boro or Millwall.

Another win for Saints last night. I've got a Saints supporting mate who has very mixed feelings. Over the moon with the run and the fact they could be in the PL next season, but also resigned to the fact they will probably lose this coach to a bigger club. Told him at least he can rule out CFC, as we only appoint yes-men with average coaching ability.

 
A little quote from Frank that are current & former manager seem to struggle with;

"The best managers put players in their best positions, build the right balance and partnerships and give confidence. That confidence from the manager mattered to me as a player."
