    There was no aggression aimed at you at all. I just meant to make my point that's all

    BCFCRob.. one of the most sensible posters on here.. lots of time for you!

    I think its time to move on Rob.. I don't really know what the answer is but we cant go on like this, Pemberton till the end of the season for me. Rowett if he's available.

    I like Rob the poster as well, so keep it up <ok>

    Me I would either go back to Pemberton or Gary Rowett. I would make sure that lucky charm Dean Holden is no where near the club as well.

    Gary Rowett 100%, love him to come here, done wonders turning Birmingham around with little money when they where in the brown stuff and losing 8-0 at home to Bournemouth

    Hasn't Rowett got a similar profile to LJ, young manager hasn't won anything. Both steered their teams away from the Championship relegation zone in their first season. At least LJ has never been in charged of that team that has lost 7-1 to Rovers. Still not sure what Pemberton has done to warrant all the plaudits either.

    I even googled Photgenic to see if it was actually a real word.

    Exactly my concern,the guy has done nothing apart from steer Brum up the championship in one season.
    Limited experience,this is a big job for the right person.
    A very appealing job.

    cant gamble this time-There are several I think unlikely through reasons of wages (Pardew etc), untried(Giggs, Gerrard) personality (Pearson) which is why I think LJ will survive for now- I had said before that if we lose up to and including Rotherham, there would be no option.That is only 4 games now

    Thanks gents, and yourselves. I think you're right to be honest, I wasn't disagreeing with that. I just disagreed with those saying we always go cheap. But yeah, enough is enough with LJ, I just don't know who's better. A very bad situation to be in.

    SORRY ROD ... forgot
    TOM SAID ... Gary Rowett 100%, love him to come here, done wonders turning Birmingham around with little money when they where in the brown stuff
    Now GR ( Gary Rowett )
    was sacked because the new owners said they didn't like selfie's with him !! .. or so say!
    so in reply to TOM'S comment I posted "YEA BUT HE ( Gary Rowett ie ) IS NOT PHOTOGENIC ( as per new owners comment don't like doing selfies)
    next part ... Oh HE DID WIN A LOAD OF GAMES THOUGH, that's a statement that says basically so what selfies not important, he did win a few games ( we know ZOLA hasn't ) so therefore a bit of sarcasm ..hows Zola doing? ..........as we know not very well

    All the credentials of a City boss then if SOD, McInnes, Millen and LJ are anything to go by.
    I don't know if we don't pay a decent salary to entice good managers, as we always seem to go for the cheap option.

    Coppell none of us knew why, but we was not the first club that he done this to. Perhaps he just don't like clubs called City? Also from what I heard it was him who enquired about David James, not what people believe in that it was Lansdown.
    SoD I don't care what you think of him, he was ****ing awful as a manager. You built the Clown up so much that I even got excited to see this great impressive football we was about to see. But what happened was I nearly started to stop going as it was just dismal.
    Yes we had to sell the players as the club could not carry on losing money. But we went out of the championship without a whimper, and then we was in relegation place of league one and not looking like we could find a way out off.
    So please I'm begging you stop trying to use SoD as examples to criticise SL and try and make out you know anything. You've got this correct simply because any city manager on a three match winless streak you start calling for their heads and putting up negative post.
    Once the winless streak progressives more are going to start doubting and coming round to thinking he's not the correct manager. Just because you're premature don't mean you're always the best judge of a manager.
    Bit like earlier this season when we was winning a few you was banging on about play off telling any opposing supporter like Old Sparky that we should not be underestimated that we are dark horses etc.
    I've still to see one of your options justified why you believe would do a good job here. You've shouted these names and it's just been because they will stand up to Lansdown. But then you complain that LJ has had all this money so surely he's paying out now so how much more do you want him to shell out.

    Glad you acknowledged SOD was on a hiding to nothing.
    Best coach to grace Ashton Gate,ask Louis Carey.
