Just shows how much better LJ was doing than many on here gave him credit for. Almost every post lately has lamented how poor the squad has been for the last 2 years, yet LJ had them in the top 10 every season. Something DH is failing miserably at repeating. Even in our worst losing period in our clubs history we were better off than we are now! That to me points to relegation if we don’t make a change soon. Selling Eliasson and playing the formation he is, shows DH doesn’t have a clue....
I said if he started Fammy v Watford, Deano would show he's out of his depth...No coach in their right mind would have started him after his previous 4 games. Just by going a goal down in any game lately makes me feel there's no way back, I didn't get that so much with LJ TBF. ...It's just not working for him IMO.
Supcon72 Engage that brain. 2 years ago we still had the likes of Webster and Brownhill. And Junior and Ashton were in the middle of their sweet shop soiree. I maintain the squad left by Johnson is the reason we're heading south.
LJ publicly said he had the final say on transfers, Holden has saiid that he has the final say on transfers and Ashton has said that they both had/have the final say on transfers. The only conclusion is they are all 3 liars?
It was pointed out that in yesterdays match day squad of 19, 10 were LJ's, 7 were academy products and 2 were Holden's. IMHO there are at least 11 sub standard players from the LJ era that need shifting The last time I looked the season wasn't over but you have already placed them outside of the top 10. Is that the same Eliasson that was our main supply last season whom LJ played very rarely? No wonder he was happy to leave for a relegation threatened French ligue 1 team, perhaps at last he feels wanted.
I am starting to wonder why any player with real ambition would ever want to join Bristol City and become just another body on the pitch. The same basic things have been said for so many years now and yet Lansdown still wants to employ nodding dogs to do his asking without giving them respect for their knowledge and true dedicated commitment. Our owner clearly has his head buried somewhere unmentionable and I suppose the only benefit derived from that position is that you can't, or won't, be able to hear the cry from the streets. Wake up man because you are asleep at the wheel and truly not listening to the vibes out there baying for you to change your stubborn ways and actually put in place the right people needed to achieve what you have often stated is your personal goal for football at Ashton Gate. Constantly banging your head against the same wall should be quite painful by now and the only way to stop that annoying pain is to STOP doing it over and over. Ringing major changes could be the anthem for moving forward rather than the dull thud of ineptness to which we have all become accustomed.

Changes nothing.The Robins have now lost five on the bounce in all competitions and won just three of their last 13 Championship games, losing the other 10. https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/s...fans-call-for-action-after-watford-hammering/
The championship never lets up with shock results.. Brentford losing to Barnsley at home.. probably why we are close in points either end of the table!!
The difference being at least if you are a Barnsley fan you know there is going to be effort and fight.
Which IMO happened most of the time when LJ was in charge...whatever the result....whatever the tinkering, whatever the wrong formation. Unfortunately I'm not seeing it now,,,
I don't remember the past 3 years like that in any way shape or form, when our annual January to April/May groundhog day was in full swing, I remember expecting the losing to carry on unabated, I am struggling to remember a defeat during those times where I felt that we were unlucky, whatever bullshit spin was given at the post match interview. For instance in his last 11 games where we only won one game in a very similar run to the one are on now, I cannot remember once thinking anything other than, I can't take much more of this he has got to go. Exactly the way that I am feeling now and for the 58 or so home games that when we only won 20 odd under Johnson.
