Lee Johnson claims he and Steve Lansdown agree on '99 per cent' of Bristol City matters By a_stockhausen Lee Johnson claims he and Bristol City majority shareholder Steve Lansdown agree on "99 per cent" of matters appertaining to the Championship club. The man responsible for hiring and firing at Ashton Gate, financial services billionaire Lansdown felt the need to offer his young head coach a vote of confidence in the wake of an eight-match losing sequence that is threatening to drag the Robins into a prolonged relegation battle. Despite a growing clamour from irate supporters, who are calling for a change at the top, it is clear that Johnson still has the backing of the club's owner for now. Fronting up at City's weekly press call at the club's Failand training ground today, Johnson told journalists he and Lansdown agree on the vast majority of topics they discuss. Johnson said: "He is the owner of the football club and has the right to say anything he wants. But he always says it in the correct manner and we have an open and honest debate. "We don't generally disagree, because we see the same things. That is very important, because if there was a complete swing in thought process, understanding or opinion, then it would become difficult. "It's not difficult, because we agree on 95 to 99 per cent of the things we talk about. That's because we both have the club's best interests at heart." Asked if he appreciated Lansdown posting a message to fans on the club's website and then appearing on TV and radio in order to back him publicly earlier this week, Johnson replied: "Of course, because it shows the stability is there. It shows what he is like as a man and as a boss. He has never faltered or wavered in being supportive and he has been consistent in his message. "It is comforting when he says the things he says, but it also makes you very proud to be working for such good people at the football club. It is nice to be appreciated for some of the parts of the job you are doing, and Steve has come out and said that." Johnson's immediate focus is on Saturday's FA Cup fourth round tie against Premier League Burnley at Turf Moor. But he already has one eye on crucial Championship fixtures against Sheffield Wednesday and Rotherham United, who visit Ashton Gate next Tuesday and Saturday respectively. If Johnson is to retain his position, then he must effect a change in fortunes and take points from one or other of those two games. He added: "Football is a fickle and emotional game. Do I blame anybody? Absolutely not. For me, the key is can we change our story? If we do change our story, then we will be stronger for it. "The next few games are important anyway and I am certainly up for the challenge. I want to be the man who changes our story. I've done it before as a player and manager at various clubs and I can do it again. I'm very, very resilient and I have a belief in myself, in my staff and in my players." http://www.bristolpost.co.uk/lee-jo...city-matters/story-30089114-detail/story.html
According to the latest figures, on general world unrest, and since Donald became the main man stateside, the Doomsday Clock (predicting the end of the world/the apocalypse) has moved from 3 minutes to midnight to 2 and a half minutes to midnight now. I'd say that if we get beaten on Tuesday and fail to beat Rotherham as well, that the chimes will (finally) strike midnight for LJ.
What if we have only got 2 1/2 minutes left as per the Doomsday clock and the Ref gives 5 minutes of extra time, LJ won't know what to say..
I reckon lose Tuesday.he will not get the ROTHERHAM GAME,there are two clubs above them we need to worry about.
