As things currently stand, we are entirely dependent on the manager of the day asserting himself and it seems none of the recent lot particularly cared enough and/or had shown themselves to be competent enough in the role to do that.

I like Lampard's honesty but he isn't Alex Ferguson, but its a figure exactly like Ferguson we need. There was simply just no tolerance of anything which he saw impeding United becoming the club he wanted them to be.

Lampard can still do a lot, and it's important that at least he does seem to actually care about improving the clubs fortunes. The thing is he will have to work past meddling on the one hand and sheer incompetence on the other.

What we need is for him to get to a stage where we are upwardly mobile, and then use that leverage in a calculated way to demand improvement at all levels at the club. If we had a stable and functioning manager then you'd hope Moshiri/Kenwright and others would know enough of a good thing to butt out, but it's really hard to get to that situation in the first place.

Spot on @brieverton, and your concluding paragraph tells us all that in recent history that this probably will not happen.
Moshiri is an accountant, first, but is an expert on football and footballers in no way, shape or form. Unless he has seen the light after the culmination of his interfering over the last six seasons almost relegating the club, I fear change may be beyond him. That is a big 'if'.
As for the ghost in the corridor, he only ever emerges when the going is good. Who can ever forget his transformation in his admiration of El Loco. This went from being "What a manager" after the cup game with Cheatski, to totally isolating him when things were rock bottom for many months before he was finally given the bullet.
Bill and his cronies were an absolute show of cowardice of the highest order. These grebs deserted Martinez in his hour of need in their droves. He deserved to go, but their desertion of him told all that is needed to know about this charlatans character. Hollow, but with an incredible Svengali type influence of those in his circle.
 
He's done horrendous things to this club and I'll never like or respect him however he did sell us on to the "right" buyer and for that I'll have 'some' gratitude to the fella.
 

If only he'd of sold to the Man Citehh owners when they came knocking, we'd already be in a shiny new stadium and sat at the 'Top Table ' with the world's football elite and looking down our noses at the Sewer Rats across the park.

Instead we've just escaped relegation and if reports are true about to offer JJK a contract extension !!

STILL, 27 YEAR'S EH LADS.

Why should Bill say anything? Its not his mess, last season was on Moshiri, after the disgraceful way some acted last season towards him he doesn't have to say anything.
The fans who doubted his ownership should be apologising to him

If he sold us too the right buyer while also retaining our premier league status over the decades he has done a very good job.
There is a reason why only United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs are the only clubs to never be relegated from the Premier League, our reason is Bill, money is there's, to have as as an ever present along with them is quite an achievement.
City, Newcastle, Villa, West Ham, Leeds Leicester, Blackburn, Southampton, Sunderland, Middlesbrough, Charlton.... etc would love a slice of that action
