One Team Posted February 8, 2020 Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 Speak to any fans apart from our own and they will tell you they think some of our fans are mad for wanting him out. He is highly regarded outside of Ashton Gate so I am not surprised at all. And not surprised he didn’t take it as he’s got air support like he would get nowhere else.

I’m not saying he is, I’m not saying he isn’t, but what are you evidencing that on? Because it sounds like a throwaway easy to make comment to me.

B1ackbird Posted February 8, 2020 Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 Lee had an offer to "join the rejects and get yourself killed" by Micky Geggus, although it was probably a more generic invitation and it was made four years before he was born, so in closing I would discount that offer completely...

Red Exile Posted February 8, 2020 Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 Sounds like a man trying to protect his own reputation. Nothing wrong with that but I judge him by what he does, not what he says...and last night's shambles tells you much of what you need to know about Lee Johnson. Can't imagine many clubs looked at that and though 'ooh, maybe Lee could do that for us!' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Littlesh*t Posted February 8, 2020 Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 What I don't understand is our fans certainly don't support city as a glory team like a man u or man city etc so surely they are supporting city as a local team and for entertainment value. I am certainly in the Johnson out camp but have to admit the league position is good but I want to be entertained not just try and scrape results. Can anyone honestly find the way we play entertaining Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Portland Bill Posted February 8, 2020 Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 4 minutes ago, Matty_Taylor_is_god said: No embarrassing someone still wants him gone when we could go 3rd. Clearly a personal thing... Why’s it hard to believe he’s had offers? Look where we were 4 years ago to now. You can’t exactly say he’s made it up when you have no idea yourself. shock you’re active on the forum again by the way. If he had coached a group of players over those last 4 years and built a team and playing philosophy, then I would give him the credit. But no, he has been given everything on a plate, signed 50? players and spent more money than any other City manager. SL has given him everything he has asked, but tactically he is unable to compete against other managers, even though he has players these other managers would love to have. On a personal level, I find him arrogant and embarrassing, some of the stuff he says goes right through me, and the way he blames everyone else for his own inability is excruciating.
