Robbored Posted August 22, 2017 Report Share Posted August 22, 2017 Heard something interesting regarding Taylor and his "injury" on Saturday. Apparently LJ wanted him to play in behind the front two and they ended up rowing over it. Taylor was left out because of the disagreement with LJ......... The "injury" is/was no more than a slight niggle and that Taylor's omission was entirely down to LJ leaving him out as a punishment the disagreement. Now if that's true then he's heading down the same road as his father......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm In behind the front two I.e in behind Bobby who is still a midfielder playing up front, and necessitating a change in formation when LJ hasn't shown a willingness to do so when needed this season. And also starting in a league game having not had any U23 or League cup games to build up fitness. Yep - that all passes muster as a rumour...

If this is the case Then I am getting fed up with the Johnsons thinking they run this club If I wanted to show the fans that I am a right back, I would not like playing other places and having them judge me on that position If LJ does not want him to play where he has proved himself, then let him go!

Gary did a good job and those couple of seasons were interesting but he was found out at this level. We were on a crest of a wave after promotion in what was arguably a poor champ. Granted he created a great team ethic but we rarely blew teams away under him, nor did we ooze technical class.....not knocking his achievement, he is still the most successful manager we have had for many a year based on those two seasons. But if he was such a great tactician why are we the biggest club he managed? He has struggled elsewhere such as Posh and Northampton. Perhaps read Trundle's book for an interesting insight.... As soon as we signed bigger name players it was very much square peg in round holes tactics. Like we are seeing now. Evander Sno a left winger, Styvar a left back playing as a striker. His obsession with playing Lee Johnson win lose or draw. I could go on. His downfall was falling out with Basso over the contract. Basso was the key man in that dressing room. We were not the same after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of if the fans agree with the decisions he makes, he has the right to make whatever decisions he may wish with regards to tactics. Just like any other manager or head coach in the world.

Floatn Over Posted August 22, 2017 Report Share Posted August 22, 2017 We will never know if there is anything to the speculation and I would not expect a running commentary of everything behind closed doors but I do feel there is an increasing trend of the truth being screened.

I think GJ got fantastic performance out of a limited group of players. There has to be some tactical ability in the mix to do that. I think that the Championship started to change and Johnson couldn't adapt to it, but that's not to diminish what he achieved while he was here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favourite time watching us was 2006/7 and 2007/8. I do feel he struggled a bit managing tricky personalities, but our best squads under him didn't really feature them. Great times - Ashton Gate was a real fortress under him. Genuine unity from fans to the team and management - with the exception of @Robbored of course.

Robbored Posted August 22, 2017 Report Share Posted August 22, 2017 The person who passed this info knows that I post on otib and that I quite like LJ. They are very close to the behind the scenes going ons at City. They told me in earnest and said "post that on otib if you like"....so I'm not breaking any confidences. I was told other stuff as well particularly about Flint..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
