That why Bristol City FC. have been in the wilderness for decades. First proper manager they have employed in decades. Soft underbelly within the setup.
Well both won a promotion for a start and GJ was at BCFC for 5 years and he gave us a 9th place finish and then promotion in the 1st division and a 4th place finish (play off final) and 2 10th places in the championship under him, which would been hailed as world class by some had it been little Lee. Let's put it this way. The experiment post SC was to give far too much the power to a CEO and then employ fall guys and mates in the medical rehab department and the result was a weak, unbalanced, unmotivated, injury prone almost worthless squad exacerbated by quite a few players feeling let down by the club. Also take away Lloyd Kelly and the young players didn't get much of chance either. I understand fully why SL went along this route post SC but it went far too far, hopefully there is balance for a change. Having eventually gotten to watch a recording of the Celtic game and watching the videos from pre season training and Loughborough, it is nice to see the players, managers, coaches and back up staff smiling, laughing and looking as though they are actually enjoying themselves for a change.
Different gravy this new set up-first time since Man Utd season I'm looking forward to the seasons start.
