Taz Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 To be honest he's been a part of this shambolic form we find ourselves in, and if he has been coaching the defence (as rumoured on here), then he clearly was doing something wrong. That being said, all three of them should be shown the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LC_ Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 I'm not entirely concerned about Pemberton going, the whole management team needs moving on. If he goes as the scapegoat and Jr keeps his job, then I'm done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were very happy to #AnnounceDes and give him an interview back in the summer but now there's absolute silence on his departure. We have the internet now, do the club really think that sort of information (and Pemberton's now deleted tweet) can be kept quiet? It's patronising and naive.

The only man to show some passion on the sidelines was JP. Obvioulsy his face dosent fit, or he has told LJ a few home truths about the way the team is set up. Ive had a bollocks full now, how unsettleing is that before such a massive game tonight????? What a great way to say on a forum that you have come out of the closet(apologies if you are female) and regardless of gender hope you had a good time.

Lew-T Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 30 minutes ago, nebristolred said: This reaction is insane. We are crap at the moment. The two with the most influence, are the manager, and the assistant manager. Why the **** is Pembo getting such a love-in and LJ hated? Bearing in mind that not one of us have the slightest clue what it's like behind closed doors, and none of us have any idea as to his competency as a coach. Thoroughly nice bloke mind, just making a point. It seems dance and look passionate on the sidelines and that's enough for City fans to make an accurate judgment as to your coaching abilities. Absolute nonsense. We're crap, and he has to face the criticism just like LJ does. Football fans are simple at times... Have you forgotten one particular season? When we won the the double? Pemberton was a huge part of that success and deserves a lot more respect than he's been given by the club. Not forgetting last season where he took over as interim manager and made us play with freedom again. He's got a lot of respect from me! He's much better off leaving this sorry shite. All the best Pembo with your future! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cider head Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 If Pembo has resigned then I would not blame him but if sacked it's disgusting when we have the other clown as head coach. Dont be taken in by this defensive coach nonsense as who is coaching the anonymous midfield? Who is coaching the strikers? The team should be coached as a whole and the buck always lies at the head coaches feet, if advice is not taken by your support coaches then you can't sack them for it. What a farce.

The Dolman Pragmatist Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 57 minutes ago, Mr Popodopolous said: How about a chant of 'One John Pemberton'- has the dual effect of getting fans support across and of expressing dissatisfaction with the current manager and indeed is an expression of discontent at how the club is being run. How about not, eh? There may be all sorts of reasons why Pemberton is leaving, if he is. You don't know enough to be able to see this as an indicator of how the club is being run. Until someone presents any facts we should reserve judgement - but of course it won't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petehinton Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 Look at the success we had with Pembo here with Cotts. Now look what's happened since LJ took over.

If this is true and Millen or AN Other coach comes in as a new number 2 then SL is taking a massive risk and smacks of saving LJ at any cost.

Tomo Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 The Sacking of just an assistant just sums up how bad Mr Lansdowns decision making has become.

Wrongagain Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 Fall guy for LJ, sour memory of who actually saved city after cotts was sacked, but then LJ became part of the team, eventually letting the "team" know that he was boss - tinkerman was born and we are going down!
