Junior will end up at Yeovil where he belongs. He'll be happier there, it's the only place where he was at the right level for his playing ability. Also think it will, seriously, help his general health. He needs to take a step back, health is more important. Stop chasing rainbows Lee, you're just not good enough.
You could say all those things about most managers!! I really don’t understand this thing about LJ on this site. Can’t everyone just let it go!
Always a hiding to nothing managing in Scotland other than the big two.. Players level would be equivalent to what you get in the National league.. Needs some time out for a bit imo. Maybe Saudi will be calling!!!!
Lee deserves more respect on here as he is out there doing a job few of us would want and during his playing days in BS3 he was constantly being hounded due to his father being his manager. I truly never wanted him as our manger as I felt it was a cheap appointment by Lansdown and he was allowed too much time before he was sacked. He did oversee that magic night when we beat Mourinho and Man Utd to lift the roof off Ashton Gate but apart from that gem his tenure was full of the same inconsistencies we still see today. Good luck to him and perhaps bringing Yeovil back to prominence is his immediate destination where he can join his dad down in the second tier of non-league football trying to restore faith down on the farm. Go Lee.
I thought he was a wrong, dreadful, really disappointing, and as been noted many times the cheap choice to manage Bristol City with no real track record before him. Clubs take chances on untried Managers I get that, but like many supporters I couldn’t take to him. I’ve supported every other City manager but there’s something about Junior that I don’t like. Time moves on I’m sure he will reappear somewhere else in future but if he’s any good as a manager he doesn’t show it very often and his petulance at times annoys supporters He can’t compare to his father as far as I’m concerned
While I agree he wasn’t ready, and didn’t deserve his shot at City, I also don’t think he did that badly!
Managing definitely. Still maintain that when LJ got injured in the near miss season, it’s a verifiable fact that our form dropped off a cliff - coincide?
10 years, 5 clubs, 3 sackings, he is heading for obscurity, I never rated him one iota but I wish him luck for the future.
3 sackings in 10 years isn’t actually that bad for a manager in the modern game tbh. I think, and always have, that he’s a L1 level manager, with potential for more in the future with experience. It was too early In his career to manage a Championship club when we appointed him. No shame I that, some managers are, as players are. Same with Steve Cotterill, who is far more experienced, awesome in L1, average in the Championship . Even NP has been sacked that many times in the last 10 years.
I'm not going to bash him, he needs a break, time to recuperate, as RP said he didn't look well , I thought his exit from his interview with the lady was abrupt and ill mannered, he was not a happy person, maybe spend some time with his dad at Torquay.
We are forced to talk about ex-managers as we don't have any success to discuss and that's the saddest thing of all. As you say Ashton - move on please.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/66636205 Dean Holden sacked from Charlton Maybe LJ can replace the one that replaced him. Or one to wind up a few on here. SL can start getting his band back together again.
