tinman85 Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 Says it all. Johnson apologies to the fans saying form isn't good enough. I've got news. Lee Johnson is not good enough to be the leader of this great club. Tactically inept. Square pegs in round holes like his dad. Two games against two teams with less spending and power than us and we can't even muster a single strike on target. Utter disgrace. 3 wins in 18. Sackable at any other club bar here.

Chicken George Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 As much as I’m die hard City, I wouldn’t say we were a “great club” as you’ve said. We’ve spent most of our existence bouncing between Champ & L1 (or whatever equivalents). We’re not exactly great. But I still love us. In answer to your points though. Yes, we are a bit shit at the moment and I struggle to see where we will improve? I’ll be interested to know if our “signings for the future” that have now had 18 months to 3 years with us will do next year. Magnússon, Taylor Moore, Eliasson, Walsh, Engvall. Lots of outlay on those and very little involvement so far. Or will we still be relying on the players O’Driscoll brought in 5/6 years ago! If we want to question anything, question the recruitment (Mark Ashton) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember the bore draws and last minute goals? We scraped that play off season in what was a poor league. We perked up again for palace home and away and had a slice of luck with Watson missing a pen.l when they were in control. When he signed better players like Sno he had no clue. If he was so good why has he not managed at this level again???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fully agree players should take responsibility for there performances , however didn’t before Gary signed players and did what he called the personality test , to see about how players conducted themselves , lived there life of the pitch. Trundle passed that test I presume ? Same with lee who signed Tomlin who is in the same mould trundle , couldn’t handle and got rid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one where he tells that lie about Petar Styvar (35 goals in 57 games in Slovakia) being a full back? By the time we signed him he was two years past his best but we were desperate (finding wages at this level a real shock) and it didn’t work out. The truth is bloody dull, eh?

I felt the same on Monday and many times over 40 odd years of supporting the club. I don’t see him as a legend. In the same way I don’t see Lansdown as a messiah. Like you and I they’re just passing through. What frustrates me is how our hopes are built up over a great few months and then for reasons that I don’t think anyone can explain we find them dashed. How can a group of players go from flying so high and beating Utd and taking City close to what we’re seeing now? If I knew the answer to that I’d be a genius. We go again.....

I don't recall there being any issues with his lifestyle and I was not implying that. He seemed a thoroughly decent guy and his talent is unquestioned. Yet nobody else tried to sign him, which suggests to me they decided he was a player who thrived in the lower leagues but would not make the step up. A gamble that didn't pay off unfortunately, but you can say that about an awful lot of signings at an awful lot of clubs I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
