bristoldan19 Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 I'm not suggesting for a second that he will, but reports are he isn't happy with some players themselves for not coming to us. There have been managers at other clubs in the past who have left because of missed opportunities in the market? I don't think he would go bit just keen in other people's opinions? Weve had a good market so far but we all know Johnson has wanted a striker for 18 months or so now, could've see him losing patience himself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeh Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 What are you on about, no manager has left because a player he was after turned them down for another club, managers leave for not clubs not even bidding for their targets johnson has had bids in for everyone of his targets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Portland Bill Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 He has been given more money and probably more signings than every other BCFC manager put together. So no reason to throw his toys out. If he did, then I’m sure there we would find another manager more than capable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in the odd case that is a fair question, in this one not so much. What we know is players that want to break in to the highest level will come, players going out on loan from a top club will choose a more well storied club if it suddenly becomes available. MA LJ and JL must be pretty miffed this morning but **** it we are who we are, we have Semenyo, who else is out there. My thought is we only need a forward now, we have Baker Wright and Moore to partner Kalas. Go get one! This could all be a blessing in disguise, I wouldn’t want that ego in our dressing room.

Guest Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Will he walk? No. Will he be furious that yet again we haven't got the reinforcements up top? I'm sure he will be. Would he be easier to tempt to a different challenge when a vacancy becomes available? I reckon so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man has the cushiest managers job in football and perhaps he might look at himself for the reasons why some players may choose elsewhere. He should and hopefully is eternally grateful that Mr Lansdown has limitless patience. Despite the temporary hype during our cup run, I do not believe he will manage a better or bigger club than us, so if he were to walk it would be to grow his property empire. For those reasons I believe he is here for as long as he likes and that he isn't going anywhere soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should therefore have no cause to be peed off at a situation he has played a major role in. If we have brought in too many of the wrong type then he is responsible, although I don't actually think we have, its just that we have spent too much time courting a flighty *** of a striker. The squad is bloated and dealing with that is as important as bringing people in because we are regularly told we must be sustainable nd work to a budget (whatever that may be) and LJ will be fully aware of what can and cannot be done financially. Perhaps some of those now on the outside looking in aren't marketable but I hope we can loan some out next month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
