CodeRed Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 Personally I think this is getting OTT now Club Statement Lee Johnson Following the departure of Lee Johnson and in recognition of the high regard he is held in by many supporters, and the affection Lee himself retains for the club we propose to mark his time at Bristol City in three ways. 1. From noon today a Facebook page will be available for supporters to leave their own personal messages of thanks and tributes to Lee. Details will be on the club official website when finalised. 2. Links to a JustGiving Page will also be made available to enable supporters to make a small contribution to a suitable gift for Lee. Suggestions from supporters would be welcomed. 3. Finally before the home game with Stoke City on 15th July there will be a one minute period of applause by all members of staff and playing staff at BCFC to thank Lee for his contribution to the Bristol City journey. We invite supporters to join in at home and send video clips to the club media department who will create a montage of clips to be made available for Lee and his family to watch at his home. The club hopes supporters will appreciated these initiatives and participate fully in these tributes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tin Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 A whipround for a manager who's had at least one year of his £600,000-a-year contract paid up, and has a property portfolio to fall back on? That's a step too far, surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoystonFoote'snephew Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 Most strange. People tend to leave messages of thanks on social media these days anyway but a Just Giving page for donations for a suitable gift? I was a big supporter of LJ but he was well remunerated during his time here. I don't recall us providing a gift for Cotts and he just achieved a double winning a league title with the most points City had ever amassed, and a Wembley trophy.

Galley is our king Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 Oh wow! @Code Red, you little scamp. You made this look like an official statement to hide your admiration for Lee. Bless you, he always knew he had your complete trust and full support. No need to hide your love for him, just come out and say it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest is just…too much. We didn't have a minutes applause for Cotts…Did we have one when we won L1? I'm sure people will contribute, otherwise it could get embarrassing or nasty. To be honest, LJ might think this embarrassing and unnecessary. I certainly would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
