Maybe Rotherham hit the post, they're still going down.Our run of form has nothing to do with luck. I say that on the basis of being at Elland Rd tonight and seeing a gritty performance. We had twice as many shots on target, lost our top scorer midway through the first half which seriously hampered our game plan and seeing Green make some pretty desperate saves. Added to that a cruel deflection that prevented Giefer making a routine save and him pretty much being a spectator for the rest of the match. There was no way we deserved to lose tonight. On the back of 3 games undefeated and the best performance not just this season but for a long while v Derby yes we are picking up. So stop jumping on a pretty pathetic and boring bandwagon and see things for what they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decided against it myself, and glad not to have witnessed what sounds from your description to be another unfortunate result on the road...but having already watched unfortunate results in Yorkshire this season at Wednesday, Rotherham and Barnsley I could do without another... What you see as a "pathetic bandwagon" seems to me to be an inevitable reaction to what, given the playing staff, feels like the most disappointing run of results in my decades of supporting the club.

reddoc Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Not jumping on any bandwagon, I've been consistent in my observations for a while, I'm glad we played some nice football and I think Cardiff put our fantastic point at Derby into perspective tonight. We're a poor side who deserve our position in the table. And without changing things now it will almost certainly get worse. Credit to you for going.

As things stand we are going down without a shadow of a doubt. The defence is pathetic and yet our best defender this season can't even get in the squad. Something stinks Mr Johnson.

It's like a horrible, neverending bad dream. I fear he's lost the majority of fans beyond redemption but SL seems unable to grasp what that means. Surely his finger must be on the trigger. But at what point will he pull it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattWSM Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Fulham now biggest game of the season so far. #packthegate....will this happen? Full house, big atmosphere and get behind the lads needed. 3 more points will takes with a point of two of 15th place and drag more teams back in it.

Cotterill was actually very good friends with the board before things turned sour. I don't see how McInnes wasn't a yes man, he would have been grateful for the opportunity and similar with GJ when he was appointed, although out of the three Gary would probably have been more willing to get his point across! Only non yes-man we've appointed is Coppell and we all know how that turned out. We need someone with Championship pedigree. He might not always agree with the board, but the board and the club don't have a good record at this level, quite frankly. We need someone like that.

I'm convinced the only reason LJ is still here is because SL likes him on a personal level. I can think of no other reason why he's still here. Cotterill got far less time because he told it like it is and fell out with people at the club trying to force his ideas through. LJ does as he's told and says the right things in public, so he gets far more slack than others have. I'm sure SL believes in LJ's ability a lot more than the overwhelming majority of fans do now as well, but that personal relationship has to be the main factor in this fiasco in my view.

I'm in favour of a change as much as anyone by now but this kind of hyperbole helps no one. Just bear in mind that The Gas were in the league two drop zone JUST the once after the final game of the season and ended up in the Conference .

samo II Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 I'm pretty sure if he survived the run of defeats he'll survive near enough anything. And not advocating it or arguing either way, but will say that if he's going to go, it would have to be now, not later. Seven days until we play again, then with three games in a week; you wait until after Fulham and a new gaffer has about 24 hours with the squad before two games on the road - pointless changing then. But as I say; back him or want to sack him, think he'll be here come Birmingham at home, come what may. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tin Soldier Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 LJ has not got a scooby doo tactically, it is obvious for all to see! Just look at the f#ckin defence ffs.

It's pretty much the most unpredictable league in the world and things are far from decided at ether end of the table in April let alone February!
