Lew-T Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 It's occurred to me that we've always been poor during the winter months. A massive cycle with managers! Quote Link to comment

Unless there is better decision making, SL can do f all about it! TBF, the loss of JK 5 mins before the window shut has really f ucked up any plans for team building. 1 Quote Link to comment
Garland-sweden Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 Really hope this bad run soon Come to an end. We can be happy the bottom teams dont win either.Its hard to be a Cityfan at the moment. But anyway. Coyr! Quote Link to comment
Esmond Million's Bung Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 Sorry but far from good enough, the team lacks winners and prepared to be disappointed in January, my glass is still half full but has sprung a leak. 1 Quote Link to comment

Utterly pissed off with conceding rubbish goals, utterly pissed off with missing chances, utterly pissed of with players being forced to play in unnatural areas of the field, utterly pissed off with crap platitudes, utterly pissed off with whay is being served up. I'm never quite sure with this happy clapper or anti LJ garbage.....See what's in front of you. We are not playing that well, whatever anyone says. It is going wrong. Midfield cant defend, cant score. Yes we hoped we would carry on the good start, but this is not that, we are not doing it after spending 11m quid... this is implosion.... LJ is now in trouble....WAKE UP LJ, wake up everyone!! Edited December 26, 2016 by REDOXO 9 Quote Link to comment

I guess he was in goal making the saves, in defence making the tackles and scoring ALL the goals, picked the tactics.. Fair play to the guy I would suggest that you look up the word galvanised.

The club was a mess because of him. But at the end of the day GJ was a manager for hire...and he's still working. The responsibility for what came after him wasn't Gary Johnson's...it was Steve Lansdown's. It was a responsibility SL failed to rise to. If LJ isn't the manager to lead the club forward it's up to the Board to find someone better. All I'm asking is that before they ditch Lee they have a better plan than they had when they sacked his father, who, for all his limitations, was comfortably one of the more successful managers City have had in the last 30 years. 2 Quote Link to comment

Although, if you want to go on to that, yes I do think SC could have turned it around IF he had been given the backing. And I did say from the day LJ was appointed I cannot see him being a good manager for Bristol City, in fact I said if he takes us out of this division it will be down not up. Hope I'm wrong, but my opinion is based not on irrational dislike, just common sense analysis. 1 Quote Link to comment
hertsexile Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 Frail in defence once again. Goal line camera's needed sounds like ref and linesman could not see. Ball to hand or hand to ball can a ref actually tell the difference. LJ needs to turn us around quick or a massive rethink is needed !!! Quote Link to comment

It was a collective effort by the team, manager and so on.. Odemwingie had a big hand in that as well just pointing out like so no it wasn't just down to Tomlin galvanising the team Quote Link to comment
Nogbad the Bad Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 3 minutes ago, Dark Wood Covert said: Yet in black and white it has been said on here but I guess those said posters were just kidding around... Who's being naive now? I've seen it from just 2 posters, you're giving a tiny number far too much credence. The vast majority of LJ doubters don't give a toss about his playing career at AG, they simply see no reason to rate him as an adequate manager for BCFC in the Championship based on his past record. If you disagree, and you have seen reasons to believe he is the right man, perhaps you could put forward a convincing argument in his favour? 6 Quote Link to comment

Some are just freeing vindicated in their previous assertions that LJ is not the right man No use people getting sore every time city lose and acting like some superior supporter Typing this again just to make it clear- Someone put that they want LJ to fail with us. To suggest they might be happy with the defeat- as that tends to be a part of failing- isn't "talking rubbish and stirring the pot" but is actually a fairly simple extrapolation of the statement made.

It seems clear that the more experienced managers/coaches in this league have sussed LJ's limited knowledge out, and he is unable to tactility take us to another level. 2 Quote Link to comment
