It will be more flawed if there is an option which about 99% would choose - I think the results are interesting as it is and currently with lose the game so LJ goes leading at this point - slightly shocking for me !!

HoldenBall Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 There is no way I'm wasting a day on Saturday wanting us to lose. Could we please win and he be sacked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree Neo but it says fail to win rather than lose with all respect. I didn't know what to expect in all honesty but the result thus far is, as you say, slightly shocking.

Ivorguy Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 City to win Johnson to go If that turns out to be the scenario it leaves us with another major problem : SL choosing another manager, yet again with no proper appointment procedures in place, and the whole ghastly roundabout starts up again.

JHAGa Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 I genuinely find it shocking how so many people want us to lose. People will say it's for the 'greater good' in their eyes, but I just find it hard to comprehend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither owner, Board, nor Head Coach are big enough to own up publicly to their failings. Hope I am 100% wrong, though - but as I said that still leaves us fans with just a new headache, the appointment of a new manager God knows where we all go from here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Summed up how I feel. I really don't understand why he thinks he is capable of bringing a manager in. He knows business not football ffs. Just looking at his previous decisions shows he needs to put a person in place to make the decisions with footballing knowledge and experience. And I must say you know things are bad when i called my Dad and all we did was talk about the situation at city for an hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeAman08 Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 Have to win no matter the outcome in regards to the coach. I doubt there'd be so many LJ out if we won the last 13 games. Not going to happen but point is I never want to see us lose and while a win is unlikely to make LJ a good coach it will be 3 points closer to keeping us in the league which is the goal no matter what and who is in charge.

Silvio Dante Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 I support Bristol City. In every game I want us to get three points. Even if LJ goes, there is no guarantee a replacement will do better (not the same as saying he shouldn't be replaced). If we get three points, we are nearer safety. If we don't, we're nearer relegation. Although I get the question, really, there's only one answer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was offered 3 points but had to keep LJ I'd take the 3 as it would means 3 wins and a draw or two should mean we stay up. Maybe LJ doesn't have it in him. Maybe he gets lucky. I don't know and I don't like guessing but it's what we are stuck with so I just want the win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I've said on more than one thread I think LJs time is up. But even if we appointed SAF, it's not a guarantee of points - so I have to take the points. Counter question - would you, or others, take the loss and losing LJ if at the end of the season we are relegated by two points? Just as likely...

I want LJ gone but couldn't bring myself to wish defeat on our team. Maybe ask your question in another poll after Saturdays game? It would certainly be divisive as is the current poll.

I think we're pretty much on the same page here so no axe to grind. The only point I'll disagree on is that the poll should be pre saturday - i.e. Take losing and LJ gone, come what may. I'd hope most people are of the same opinion there - even now (and again, I think his time is up) - we'd all take him staying if it meant staying up and reassessing in the summer.

I wouldn't, if he managed to keep us up I'd want him gone still. Terrible record, hugely underachieved ie money spent, get someone better in that can do a good job.

I'm sure you're right Silvio and I've no axe to grind either. It would leave a huge problem in the summer though as the fans have turned and I don't think we're coming back onside any time soon!
