Personally I would be very unhappy and find it hard to get behind him. If he got off to a flying start I'd no doubt get over it but would soon turn if results worsened. Similar to the way a lot seemed to be with LJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there’ll be a few managers where some fans are dead set against them being appointed. I don’t really know too much about most of them so I can’t comment.

Terry, because he disgusts me. Happy to support anyone else whatever my reservations, because as has so often been the case what looks a good choice doesn’t work out & an odd one sometimes works. I never liked Pulis but even gave him (a Welsh gashead, who is a godparent to Holloway’s kids & played shit football) a chance before then deciding he was a ***.

Although we have the backing we don’t have the history or profile we’re perfect for a Crowley ,Cook , Johnson to say I took them there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t really know too much about most of them so I can’t comment. I was just wondering You`ll never get 100% backing from the entire fanbase unless you`re appointing Guardiola or Klopp. As far as appointments where a significant proportion of the fans would be unhappy go you`re talking Pu*is, Hollowhead, Warnock and one or two others (is Billy Davies still in football?) otherwise most would give them the benefit of the doubt even if it was someone who was not their preferred option. A few bad results though and it would turn no matter who it was - and that is no different to any other club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eric04 Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 I’m always quite surprised by how few City fans know stuff about clubs outside our Ashton Gate bubble. I suspect many won’t even know who Cowley, Cook, Lowe is, possibly even Hughton’s achievements. Gerrard is probably the only candidate that would gain 100% recognition.

Yeah i know at least a dozen blokes who now go and watch City If i ask them to come up 10-15 years ago there would be no chance they would come They will stop going when football is no longer the "IN" thing or if city drop to league one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shelts Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 My opinion is irreverent and to make matters worse Steve hasn’t been in touch to ask for my thoughts on who should get the managers job .

No I didn't mean it to illicit a response and not aware of his actions other than he managed the other club in Bristol I'm just saying him as he's a similar age to Cowley but more experienced even though I wouldn't want either if I was a wealthy chairman of a championship club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
