Lee Johnson's tenure has seen record spending on players and today records being set for consecutive defeats. I have seen posts on this forum where people have described themselves as fans/ supporters of Lee Johnson. I am finding Mr Johnson's, tactics, substitutions, and team selections hard to understand, couple this with the spending and results ... Can anybody provide a lucid defence of Mr Johnson?
No. He's had his chance and it hasn't worked out. The vanity/stubbornness of the owner may be the blocker though.
The bench today cost millions. Most expensive (?) subs in BCFC history. Mr Johnson does not have the excuse of lack of options, or wanting new in faces to "freshen up the group".
Last straw for me was Hegeler put in at centre back when we were crying out for him to sit in the middle of the park and dictate the play. Our midfield was out muscled and dropped so deep I thought I saw one of them on Winterstoke road on the way home. Same old boring negative style with a predictable end result. Enough is enough!
Mags should have been put back in and move Heggs into the middle,us bloody fans can see it. Looks quality should be moved into the middle.
Today was all wrong in my eyes. When we took the lead it should of been right now let's defend this for once. So no subs in sight. One all still nothing 2-1 bring a sub on you've got one midfielder who can steady the already tracking back midfield let's play it sideways. And to top it off we've a defender who has been playing well this season, still sat on his arse because he's not been told to warm up. 2-2 arghhh let's bring on Wilbs for a player already doing the same and looks a lot better than Wilbs this season anyway in my book. It seems it's obligatory to give him 10 minutes all the ****ing time. Yes I don't really rate Wilbs, never been his greatest fan even in league one. 2-3 bring on .Tomlin and Patterson for Brownhill? And O'Dowda and guess what let's sit back and nit attack anymore. I've fallen off the fence now, let's get it sorted quickly. I never seen what Dean Holden has brought apart from pushing Pemberton further in the background.
Since Holden arrived we have nose dived. I don't know to what degree he is culpable, but questions need now to be asked concerning all the first team management
Johnson was a rabbit in the headlights tonight after the equaliser and we all knew who would score next! its not happening, time to get on lee.
So hang on a minute? Why is it that the ones on this forum who said time was time 4 or 5 weeks ago have been lambasted whether they have like LJ or not. Even as recent as last week, some were calling us disgraces. Yet one week on, a load of you are coming out the wood work saying it's time for him to move on? Why is it when some of you see fit to say it's time to go it's the right time, but for the ones who got to where you are now weeks ago are fickle? Absolute joke some of you.
Spot on we could see it weeks ago I'm glad the rest see the light. However some probably wanted to give him more time. Sad for LJ but it is best for all concerned. SL has too make the call.
I THINK it is time for Lee to blame the rugby, and the pitch and the ref for not giving us a penalty and the groundsman because the pitch was to soft the tea lady because the half time brew didn't have enough energy supplement the crowd for not getting behind the team and also the cost of parking his car in lidl's when he overstays by 10 mins .. also someone messing with his watch because the subs were late, JP for not telling him he was a sh*** manager and ought to go on holiday ...... ALSO yes...DH " SOMEONE SAID NOSE DIVED" W R O N G ... maximum full throttle all engines full thrust vertical freedive from 50,000ft
Coming out of the woodwork? You haven't been on here for months except to call the manager out and you use the word time twice in one sentence! perhaps some of us were prepared to give a little time and for some of us that time has now ran out! if you set an egg timer would you get your egg out of the pan half way through and then complain you didn't get the right result? Changing your opinion from 'weeks ago' is irrelevant. As For Red Robin, most fickle city fan on here and most would agree, he comes across as happy to now be in the majority calling for a managers head again at our club (again).. It doesn't make us look clever as a club you know!
This sits at SLs feet. Apparently the list of managers presented was impressive,that got ignored,SL Went for the inexperienced LJ which has sadly backfired. SL hired him,he is the one that has to deal with it.
So now YOU are God and you decide when enough is enough for this manager and the ones who got to where you got to now weeks ago should bow and worship you? I'm asking, from 6 days ago when most staunchly defended the manager and slated anyone who had a differing opinion, to now, what's changed? Other than ONE GAME that's been identical the previous 7 or 8! You can call as many people "fickle" as you like, but the above is as good as example as any of a temperamental stance. Get over yourselves and move out of your glass houses.
