    LJ's initial appointment split 50% of the fan base.
    Next time it will be 99% against.
    1%For will be happy. :emoticon-0136-giggl

    That's not happening. It serves nobody.

    I don't know anyone that's said they want LJ back, you're mixing up with those that thought while he was here he did a decent job..
    According to the haters, since his departure we've vastly improved........each to their own <doh>

    I’m thinking, SL may have a buyer lined up. Or he likes his day out in Wembley when we go next time in the EFL trophy final.

    We’ve had a lower league finish - for a cheaper price. I see that as a step back - but I’m glad we’ve avoided a FFP penalty.
    Spending was down to Ashton, not LJ.
    Football was LJ - and (sorry Supcon and 1for) there were some good times, but towards the end it became unsustainably negative - I don’t mean ‘boring’ (although it was) - it became defensive - setting out not to lose rather than go for a win - IMHO starting from when Brownhill left. LJ looked like he’d run out of ideas. He had to go, but as everyone knows on here I think he did ok overall and certainly does not deserve the vitriol on these boards - or (apparently) disgusting threats to his family during his tenure.
    He’s gone - and needs to stay gone - but I look back on his tenure as ok (not brilliant but not awful either)

    I totally agree with you about threats to LJ or his family and if I knew the individuals involved I would shop them without hesitation to the police, it was disgusting, evil and not in the least deserved, I have nothing else I wish to say except I geninely wish him well for the future.

    That sums up most social media doesn’t it, & before anyone says it I know this is social media, but on the whole it’s just football based, we dip a bit into other stuff, but is often tongue in cheek, and because we kinda know each other and it’s not, on the whole taken too seriously.

    I'm not just pumping it up but I think we've got a great mix of people, many different personalities and temperaments, points of view differs but most of us have been around for a long time, we do kinda know one another, as far as I'm concerned it's a blast, all are welcome and long may it be, I hope.
