I reckon, LJ will be in post for our first game in League One..... .....and our first game in Europe, remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChippenhamRed Posted March 6, 2017 Report Share Posted March 6, 2017 2 minutes ago, CotswoldRed said: I'm now lost on what a position being "Untenable" means. One of the worst managerial /coaching records in the game and the vast majority (imo) of all fans believe LJ isn't right for us and want him to leave, even if we stay up. Isn't that untenable? This is one of the things I find most frustrating of all. Even if by some small miracle we do survive, Johnson has proven himself incapable of getting anywhere near par from a reasonably capable squad of players. Furthermore he has given no one any reason to think he should be trusted to spend any more money in the summer. Our fate in the coming months has almost become inconsequential to his future; whether we stay up or not, far too much damage has already been done. So why keep him a moment longer? It's the most infuriating situation I can remember in my 30 years following this club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Major Posted March 6, 2017 Report Share Posted March 6, 2017 5 minutes ago, ChippenhamRed said: Well done on giving such a fair and measured response. @Swede's posting history suggests to me he is a pretty sensible and balanced poster - he hasn't promised anything, he's just passed on what he's heard. At least give him a chance to be wrong before being quite so insulting towards someone you don't actually know. I will very happily eat more humble pie than you could offer me if its true. We've all heard endless rumours and crap on the subject for weeks now and frankly its just tedious and all it does is raise hopes. If you find what I said insulting, then I apologise - I could have said a lot worse! Lets wait and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Untenable is lost on the club hierarchy. They think it refers to ten consecutive defeats. Eight is okay. Ten? Well that's taking the pass (spillchock edit).
