Davefevs Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 Macca gone too. I’d like to see him as a manager at some point. Just now, Distortia said: Not a big surprise from what we've seen recently. That final press conference was damning. I thought LJ received some awful Qs.

petehinton Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 Would be amazed if he takes another domestic job next. Can see him going abroad. Don’t think many L1 clubs would take a chance on him, the ones he would want anyway. Penny for Reuben McAllister’s thoughts too….risky/silly career choice. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olé Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 Aston Villa fans are still absolutely obsessed with him. It’s one of the weirdest things in the world. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s one of the weirdest things in the world. I genuinely dislike Aston Villa. Arrogant bunch for fans, spawny for a club- get weird and or improbable twists of fate that swing their way. Nothing to do with Johnson btw, they're just highly easy to dislike and that combination probably why.

One Team Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 No surprise he’s failed and no surprise he’s been sacked, it’s been coming for a while. Where next for Pep’s understudy? Yeovil Town? Probably a decent fit actually but perhaps he’d see it as beneath him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkev Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 I do think there is half a decent manager in there somewhere , just think he over complicates things trying to be clever . I know it went tits up with him but there were a few decent moments with him in charge . 7 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the sort of thing we're used to hearing in Bristol admittedly, but In some places journalists are actually local, not only that but fans of the club themselves, and aren't afraid of asking the sort of blunt questions fans are asking themselves. We could have done with one or two like that when LJ was here. Can't see LJ getting another appointment like City or Hibs, neither does he deserve to. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There would be a mutiny at AG if that fraud of a coach/manager (call him what you want), came back to AG. Wouldn’t put it past Lansdown as we all know he likes “yes men” with the right identity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess if you ignore all the shit stuff then he was a great manager for us. If you include it he was an average one. If you include his history as a player and his personality/mannerisms that tips it into unbearable for some - whether that's fair or not is partly why this thread is so long and we're all still talking about him. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What , for occasions during 2 1/2 months , whilst spunking the money and opportunity of a generation for our Club Why does he get so much stick from our fans? See above , plus his bulls**t that a fair few of ours even now fell for The defence of him, even now , is those who defended like some cult , him whilst burying their heads in the sand for the vast majority of his tenure as to what was happening Talks a good game load of waffle though 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
