Guest Harry Dolman Posted December 1, 2005 Report Share Posted December 1, 2005 When there is friciton between the manager & the squad, 9 times out of 10, the manager will lose his job. I think this will be the exception & Lansdown will back Johnson over the squad.Some of the rationale will be financial - we have paid a lot of compensation to get Johnson/would need to pay more to sack him. Even if he walks we may well have to pay further compensation to get a replacement.If Johson took over an successful team & made them average or an average team & made them poor, then I would be more on his back. However he took over an awful team & so far hasn't improved them.Many people have talked about a major overhaul required in attitudes etc at the Gate for years - I think (hope) that is what we are going through now. I am reasonably expereinced in business & have never known a business undergo a massive cultural change without a significant amount of pain.In the 1st few games (playing 4-4-2) the team did well - however only 1 of them was away. I just think the team don't have the professionalism, dedication, mental strength, courage - call it what you will, to perform well on a consistent basis.

madmax Posted December 1, 2005 Report Share Posted December 1, 2005 No. I think the report on local radio you are referring to is Graeme Souness. He refused to travel with the team after losing 1-0 to Eveton. I heard the same report you are referring to, it wasn't Gary Johnson.MM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
