Who Are Rovers? Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 Johnson is a worse version of Kilkenny, It must be for the reserves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolfOfWestStreet Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 Without trying to start a debate that has been done to death... LJ would pop up with the odd goal where as NK has the goal threat of Ellie Simmons. Put way more effort in also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ralphindevon Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 I was only recently wandering if we would ever have another LJ thread. I was thinking we might not get until he becomes Yeovil manager or something. It's a good way of finding out if certain posters, like Pete1975, are still with us I suppose. Springing on to life like they've he's had an electric shock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFC_Dan Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 Johnson is a worse version of Kilkenny, It must be for the reserves. Johnson is much less of a berk than Kilkenny. If we had more players with Lee Johnson's spirit and attitude we wouldn't be bottom of the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bedminster Born And Red Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 Johnson is much less of a berk than Kilkenny. If we had more players with Lee Johnson's spirit and attitude we wouldn't be bottom of the league. I think we would. It's ABILITY that is lacking in this squad and Lee Johnson wouldn't add anything we don't have on that score. Typical of the bits and pieces type of player that has been a constant feature of our midfield in recent years. Skuse, Pearson and Kilkenny all fall into that category. We do have a ball winning type in Elliott but injuries have turned him into a shadow of his former self. We need a proper ball winner alongside a proper player but players of that ilk do not grow on trees and are not cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So how did a squad with Johnson, McCombe, McAllister and Enoch Showunmi in it reach the playoff final? Either those players had more ability than the ones we have now, or they had something else that the current bunch lack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is we didn't add any quality to the squad and just brought in dross to make the numbers up, which we are now paying the price for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either those players had more ability than the ones we have now, or they had something else that the current bunch lack. Momentum, a bit of luck and a great team spirit carried us through that season. We also had Basso and Elliott playing out of their skin on a weekly basis. In terms of ability none of the players listed above has reached the Premiership. In fact many of that side gradually went in the opposite direction. With the exception of Bradley Orr who was berated by many on here. Lee Johnson is out of work, not good enough to play for Kilmarnock, with very few offers on the table I should imagine. Not the type of player we should be signing on a short or longer term basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
