Olé Posted January 21, 2017 Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 Anyone who thinks we have a serious manager or any semblance of an attacking plan hasn't watched much City this season. Today was beyond pathetic. Anyone who sees something in this manager is a virtue signalling liar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esmond Million's Bung Posted January 21, 2017 Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 Well done Lee you and your team have the embarrassing honour of being the holders of a new record 8 league game losing streak, congratulations. And yet again we have to listen to our commentary team tells us that another shitty team this time in guise of Forest are managing the game out easily and brilliantly, something we are incapable of doing. Can’t wait to hear tonights dirge from the coach. LJ must surely be on the brink now?. 2 points off of the bottom 2, for me one more game maximum because I don’t think personally that he can turn this around and I am sad to say that but I believe him to be way out of his depth.

HomerRed Posted January 21, 2017 Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 I couldn't face it today. I salute all the fans that did go. Even Radio Bristol alluded to a lack of urgency and closing down. LJ has to go now. Directors have to wake up and admit, once again, it's a results business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those signings could still be good signings for the new manager. So no wake up call at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin101 Posted January 21, 2017 Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 I've supported him until now. Its just untenable. Even if we were to start picking up the odd points now (and we must, surely, I mean we can't lose 10, 11, 12 in a row can we!?) he has completely destroyed his support base among fans. Unless we were to go on a similar winning streak then there's always going to be the majority of fan base that probably rightly think he's shit, the next awful run is just around the corner, and that he should be sacked. And that in turn makes us less likely to be successful. I don't know about anyone else, but I've personally been daydreaming of 1 or 2 years in the future of us celebrating our premier league promotion with LJ and all the headlines of how it could all have been so different if city hadn't held their nerve on that awful, awful run etc etc. Well, I think it was just a daydream unfortunately. Real shame as it's clear to see how desperate LJ, SL and large (but by no means all) sections of the support were for this to succeed. Where now, is the question. And what next in the tragic story of Bristol City FC. We all love it really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were playing far, far better yes. But I remember standing in the away end at Barnsley (just before this run started) and saying to my friend at HT "how the hell are we in the play offs, we're pretty average!". He agreed.

Sizzler Posted January 21, 2017 Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 He's had a lot of goodwill and plenty of time to turn it around. Enough is enough, I've lost that buzz of getting excited for games. We do have talented players, we just don't have a plan and losing has become a habit.

GrahamC Posted January 21, 2017 Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 Don't worry, he is sure we are staying up. I do think we still have a chance of doing so, but only if he isn't in charge by the next time we play a league game.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see my feelings turning around either even if the results did! There'll always be that niggle and unsettling feeling like I'm sure is the same with so many other fans.
