Full nelson Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 So if this is the case and us the fans want LJ out! Then a protest is a must against Sheffield Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Exile Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 the mere fact a statement has been issued suggests that it's worth voicing dissent on this Forum... ...that said it's a depressing prospect...I sat behind LJ at the Cardiff match...looked as though he was drowning at the end...at this point I lack the capacity to muster any "raucous support" for LJ I'm afraid.

Esmond Million's Bung Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 "What I would ask you to do is channel that frustration into raucous support of the club, its management and players in order to turn things around". Sorry Steve I think you will find that has been happening for the past 4 months and it hasn't made a jot of difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ollywhyte Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 Phew that has put me at rest. League one beckons but don't worry all, we have a brilliant stadium and a great training ground development to look forward too. Don't care about on field activity anyway!

RedJim Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 That statement suggests to me that Lee is on borrowed time. He hasn't backed him personally at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingbat Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 5 minutes ago, Bristol Rob said: At no point does that statement say he is backing the manager. Agreed - in fact, he goes out of his way to mention progress on every front, except the management/coaching. The LJ-out camp should be heartened by this statement.

Crimson Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 I personally hope Lee Johnson gets the vote of confidence so we can concentrate on moving onwards and upwards. If Johnson goes the club's lost me as a supporter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
