SACK HIM

[Hampshire reds]

if he stays it will be another wasted season. this is one of the poorest chsmpionships for  long time. 

[Roger Red Hat]

I wouldn't sack him without an idea of who his replacement would be.

Mainly just to see whether a new manager will actually make the massive difference some in here seem to think it will

That’s the quandary. We have no idea who SL would go for,  but on track record it’s not going to be a ‘name’ that some think it will be. Maybe this time when it comes (and I don’t think it will for some time yet) we will get a surprise but I won’t hold my breath, although he’s spent money on a decent rugby coach so maybe he will follow suit with the football. 

[Gert Mare]

He needs 3 transfer with windows...some DNA...anyway, we dust ourselves down and practice basic defending errors on Monday in training using a virtual stats programme to improve our possession whilst playing around the back four, three, five.

[Rossi the Robin]

Fed up now, haven’t enjoyed a home match for ages and the odd lucky away win was carrying him through

Hes been here 4 years now and it’s stale

A freshen up, wouldn’t hurt at all

Not at all. Don’t need to defend him after every game. 

What about after 4 games?

Johnson OUT, Hughton IN

And if Hughton isn't interested (which he won't be) then what ?

As long as he doesn't lose more than a couple of games, because that's unacceptable, clearly.

Pointless thread, I doubt he is under any pressure from SL.

Not a chance he will be sacked.

Spot on he’s going nowhere.

Agree, not going anywhere just yet.

I honestly think we’ll just make Holden manager, it’s a safe option with somebody who knows the players. 
 

Would love us to go with someone with a track record and experience but can’t see it happening. 
 

So, I think everyone who wants Johnson out may well just find themselves disappointed 

[Eastside Moonwalker]

get rid

Fear you may be right!  Personally think it’ll be Macallister but little difference 

[daored]

The team we had a couple of seasons ago was exciting , fun to watch. We’ve been turned into a dull team with no game plan yet millions spent on it. We won’t finish anywhere near the play offs if Johnson remains in charge 

[Tin Soldier]

This is no knee jerk reaction.

This side is highly fragile with no connection of team members. All the tinkering with the side has caused this fragility. If Lansdown could get a proven manager in, then Johnson has to go. He is clearly not up to the job. He does not know his best eleven. He does not know how to set a side up to play a brand of football. No more bullshit.

No excuses Johnson, no throwing the players under the bus. You are the problem. The squad is better than this.

This is YOUR SIDE Johnson and it ain’t good enough to beat Charlton 2nd eleven.

Have to say this can’t go on  

4 losses on the trot and Charlton first win in 12   

Hes had bags of f king money and I really don’t want see him be given another bagful in January and it go to waste. 
 

It really is time to bring in a new coach to freshen things up in a season we all expected so much 

Bye Lee 

Bags of money off the back of 40 million in sales

[Red Exile]

Clueless. Sadly. Best squad in decades...going nowhere. If he was managing Liverpool they'd be 8th. 

But lets face it. Some of us saw that a long time ago.

Get him out of our club...and don't put SL in charge of recruiting his successor!

Why can’t you see that happening? I think we’re in the best position we’ve ever been if we sacked LJ to bring in a good manager. Definitely in a more appealing place than when we bought LJ in

Pointless If he does tbh. 

[REDOXO]

**** this. If WE lose to or even draw against Luton LJ is in some trouble. 

Again I am at least as pissed off as SL and I am fuming  

 

[Wolf Island]

Johnson has been good for the club but it’s now stale. Another manager could get more out of the squad. Time to say thank you, goodbye and hello to Hughton or Sherwood.

I can’t see any experienced manager wanting to come here really, yes we’re on the up but we certainly aren’t an attractive proposition in this league when compared to some. 
 

Add to that Lansdown seemingly preferring to go with younger coaches for less money and that’s the route I can see him going for

Hear, hear!

[Dolman Block B]

This is interesting and to be honest LJ usually wins out in these polls

Only been going 20 minutes and he’s getting hammered

Fans are not happy at all 

 

[Top Robin]

Nice guy....poor manager for the level we want.....time to change up.

[City fan 1982]

Don’t panic , a couple of entertaining home games awaits ...

SL won't be fuming...he'll be fearing that he has been proved wrong (heaven forbid!)...and that he has to make a decision...his track record on managerial decisions ain't good (especially if we acknowledge that Cotts was a recommendation from the then Chairman)
