Gert Mare Posted February 22, 2017 Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 Guys.....Have you seen enough yet? Admire all your positivity but most of the anti LJ brigade have seen the writing on the wall for a long long time. We don't all hate the club and want us to lose, we don't want our glass to be half empty, we want to be filled with joy when we win (if we win) but a lot of fans and some who have seen this all before at City can't let blind faith rule our heads. This has to end tomorrow (if it hasn't already). We need to unite to show the powers that be that enough is enough. We have been more than patient in the ground but we continue to be served up the same poor performances with the same mistakes. There is no magic happening behind the scenes. This is football management at its absolute most pathetic. Woeful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are all over the shop, but the buck stops with the man in charge. He is the manager and has to manage, sort it out but he can't seem to be able to stop the rot and therefore he cannot manage. What he should do is resign and admit that he is not up to the job. The longer he stays all he does is destroy any chance of us staying up and that is wrong. If they won't sack him he needs to do the honourable thing otherwise he will be completely loathed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Journalist Posted February 22, 2017 Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 I hate this. Why so divisive? We've all had enough of losing. We all want Bristol City to win. Isn't that enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes it's just the dynamic gets to that stage. Everyone gets afraid to make mistakes. They don't want to be the one in the firing line. Only chance we have now is to change LJ.

ernie goodthing Posted February 22, 2017 Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 All true, but if he goes, it's probably 4 or 5 games without a manager and then just 10 or fewer games left for the new man to turn it round Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even big Sam admitted at Palace that the fans had every right to voice their frustrations. There is whinging for the sake of whinging but then there is genuine frustration when fans can see their beloved club going down the khazi. Our fans should be commended for their patience inside the ground, but that hasn't worked so it is now time to make a stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkz 76 Posted February 22, 2017 Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 We all want City to win at least to play for the shirt but the inept tactics and lack of management is not good enough. Having a nice stadium is not enough and our club needs to sort out the on pitch affairs. We need a overhaul top to bottom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you realise the hard working folk of Bristol pay 'actual' money to watch these games? If nothing else - football is supposed to be entertaining. Watching City now is like masochism. When you have slammed the door on your cock for over half a season, it's time to stop. That's the difference between masochism and watching City.

Leaning To One Side Posted February 22, 2017 Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 I really did want him to turn it around but he's completely lost the plot and fear that if he doesn't go now then any shred of credibility and respect he had will be lost completely. Really hope this doesn't become a toxic forum full of people arguing about who was right all along or he should be given more time etc. Hope we can all stay rational and grounded and have proper meaningful debate without people going too over the top. Here's hoping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flagon Posted February 22, 2017 Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 Irrespective of your views on whether you want Johnson in or out, how does anyone get rid of the absolute dire mistakes we make? Tonights game was undoubtedly one of if not the worst performance this season but the 2nd goal, I mean it defies all logic. It worries me if Johnson does go that whoever comes in is left with the same Achilles heel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My original post said that I admired the positivity and that even though there are many of us who are negative it is not because we want to be negative. Happy Clappers has been associated with those who want to support whatever is happening on the pitch. I was just asking if they still see any light at the end of the tunnel?
