    Look at the pace and purpose we played with, and the obvious team spirit and belief we had then

    Didn't even have the greatest players in 07-08, in fact some very average ones.. we succeeded for a few reasons, winning mentality, team spirit.. But the biggest one..

    GJ was great until he lost the dressing room and started grabbing players by the throat

    Had Johnson bought a couple of seriously good players in Jan 08' we'd have made the Premiership, of that I'm convinced.

    GJ's problem was that the players he recruited that turned out to be poor value (Trundle, Adebola etc) were found by his chief scout. His brother!

    He got us promotion from the third tier of English football but could not handle better players in a higher league. Admit that I never liked GJ and still don't!

    The next best managers after AD were Terry Cooper, Pat Beasley, Fred Ford and Joe Jordan first time around. GJ does not come in my top ten.
