Danny P Posted April 5, 2017 Report Share Posted April 5, 2017 As if the board are going to tell BBC Bristol its all true so they can report it. The club will announce it themselves if it's true not the likes of BBC Bristol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRISTOL86 Posted April 5, 2017 Report Share Posted April 5, 2017 Ok here's a teaser Woukd you rather... 1) LJ sacked now and we get relegated with a competent and proven manager appointed 2) We stay up and LJ keeps his job for next season I genuinely think I'd rather we get relegated with a decent manager at the helm ready for next season than stay up if Johnson will still be in situ.

WayOutWest Posted April 5, 2017 Report Share Posted April 5, 2017 LJ states he read the riot act to the players... yeah terrifying!! Oh to be squaked at by this Muppet for 30 mins. It would be all I could do to keep a straight face... Out of his depth. Ran out of ideas. Time to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
... Posted April 5, 2017 Report Share Posted April 5, 2017 If Lee does get the bullet today , how do we stop Steve having a say in who the next manager will be? Steve simply can't be trusted with manager contracts. Shame. tfj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously. I can't see how there can be any doubt about that. He'd need to get off to a flyer next season and there's a big risk of writing off next season too but that's better than being in league one with no guarantee of coming back up.

LJ's position since February has been untenable in my view and makes me believe that the powers that be are not acting in the best interests of Bristol City FC. Why that is, I'm still perplexed.

Inactive user Posted April 5, 2017 Report Share Posted April 5, 2017 3 hours ago, Ashtonwurzel said: Think last nights 2nd half was difference maker - IMO Agree. I've seen some positives in almost all of the 'bad run' which gave me hope. Until last night's showing. It showed me the manager and players are divided. I think the players carry a significant resposibility. But you can't change them all out. That's why I am now agreeing that it's time for LJ to go. And I say it with a heavy heart. That said, I've no confidence there's anyone in power at AG who has the gonads to challenge. So they'll probably stick with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid in the Riot Posted April 5, 2017 Report Share Posted April 5, 2017 What's interesting about the Mail article is it suggests that somebody is not happy that LJ is still at City and is deliberately feeding a rumour to the national press to try and spark some sort of reaction. I can also say for absolutey certain that Martin Griffiths (CEO of Bristol Sport) and Jon Lansdown were outside Ashton Gate about an hour ago chatting. Looked like they'd been in a meeting, spoke then they parted ways. make of that what you will, but personally I haven't seen MG about in a while...
