City 62 Posted January 18, 2020 Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 If you can't be bothered to get behind Lee and the team , why do you still bother comming to the games . Just interested to find out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numero Uno Posted January 18, 2020 Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 I thought the fans were behind the team today. If we hadn’t won they couldn’t use that as an excuse tbf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ska Junkie Posted January 18, 2020 Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 Superfan? Some don't see progression and see poor football. As is their right, they voice displeasure. I see absolutely nothing wrong with that. Lee and the team will be long gone at some point, we, the fans will still be here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AppyDAZE Posted January 18, 2020 Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 The fans at the games have been good to be fair. This so-called toxic atmosphere hasn't really been a problem at all. I think even LJ himself has been pretty impressed with the support at games and has said so. Anyway, our fans are certainly no different to any other club's fans. No better, no worse.

City 62 Posted January 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 Ok , but surely until Lee has gone we should all get right behind him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I think his football is very poor this season and, given the £££ he's had to spend, his time at City should be in question. I've nothing against the bloke, I'm sure he's a good lad but is he lucky to still be in charge? Maybe. While he's Manager, I'll support him but that certainly doesn't mean he's beyond question or criticism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Exile Posted January 18, 2020 Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 Thought the support was excellent today. If you want to understand why it might be possible to support the team and also not believe that LJ is the man to manage us there are many good explanations in this thread.

Reasoned & justified questioning of his decisions, win lose or draw, is perfectly reasonable. Just saying “out” or calling him abusive names, or stating that someone else might have us placed better than level on points with teams in the top 6 is just moronic, un-thought out, snide, vendetta fuelled drivel.

stephenkibby. Posted January 18, 2020 Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 Get behind him and the team? Although it was a pretty turgid performance I thought the fans stuck with it, no boos or even many groans at h/t. We just about deserved that win imo not a great deal to get excited about , but the crowd stuck with it right till the goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City 62 Posted January 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 Ok , what I'm trying to say is that I remember the early Alan Dicks days, we struggled for a few seasons but eventually he got it right and got us to the promised land. I can't Remember the fans being so devided as it is now. We are playing at the highest level since those days let's all get behind the team and Lee and hopefully we get back to those days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcfcredandwhite Posted January 18, 2020 Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 I thought today was ok tbh - the fans were a bit quiet but no hostility to LJ. The game was ok for me too - poor finishing but the right result so all good! happy Clappy (for now at least!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shtanley Posted January 18, 2020 Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 Sooooo many people sit there and make zero noise during the game. Maybe it’s an age thing and some people just don’t have it in them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think stating someone else might have us placed better is moronic, un-thought out, snide, vendetta fuelled drivel? What? That doesn't sound like a ridiculous thing to say whether you are pro or anti LJ to me. It's entirely possible another manager might have us placed better. What a bizarre comment.

Just interested to find out To directly answer your question because I support Bristol City and I want us to be the best we can be. I haven't got around to calling for LJ yet this time, I still think he has done enough to stay for now but I can see why some would want him out - the performances have been dull and we have struggled against some of the poorest sides in the league.

For a start apart from fans around you in the ground and friends how would you know what the division was? In the late days of Ford and early days of Dicks things were not all sweetness and light down the gate. We still moaned when we lost another Tuesday night game at home 0-1. I think the main difference today most are to needy, they see fantastic football every week on the TV every night if you want it, then come to the Gate and watch that today and think this is shit. Back then the only thing you compared City's performance with was against the next team we played. Can remember in the early 70s teams such as Hull, Sheff Utd coming down and thinking wow this is how football should be played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I shouted at the lino to watch his feet. Next throw, the lino did look down. But the player obviously heard me too and took it properly. Last week I shouted at Brownhill to get onside and he heard me and stepped back onside. Shrewsbury I shouted at LJ.
