Here is a useless fact about Johnson. He is the only living football manager to have managed a team against a team managed by his father. Oldham against Yeovil.
I doubt Johnson would have dropped to League 1 for us without knowledge of a completely different club going forward. His reputation in football is good enough for another Championship club to snap him up - he coule have sat tight and got that.
We are in League 1, we aren’t going to get a high calibre manager. From what I’ve read (admittedly limited) Johnson might be the best of a bad bunch of the standard we can attract. What I do know is that he, will like all new managers, have my support. I just glanced at RTG read the last couple of pages, about him, and I realise, for the sake of my mental health, why I stopped posting so much. The negativity and desperation to see the worst is awful, not just on there but on lots of social media outlets. The world has gone to hell in a handcart generally without getting so negative without giving a bloke a chance. The bloke is condemned before he’s put his tracksuit with LJ ironed on to it by some.
Be interesting to see where Poyet ends up. Probably end up looking back one day and realising that he’s turned down probably the biggest club he could have hoped to get. I can’t see a Premiership club taking a chance on him and Championship clubs are hardly fighting over him. Our current position should be ideal for any ambitious young manager, giving them the opportunity to stamp their style of play on the club at this level and take it forward into the Championship. Everything at the club is geared for Premiership football and when the takeover is complete there should be nothing to hold them back if they’re good enough.
That's May next year mate We have a photo shoot company arriving a week today, Asphalte, but I think the models are all male I just can't get a break.
