Yeah, should see a reaction from the players. Just with him having a word before the game to be fair.
I know mate, its a bit of a stretch asking Grigg to hit some kind of form and score goals, but ...you never know. Not holding my breath, just hoping.
I’m happy with this appointment if it goes through, I wanted Pearson but I think this lad can really grow with the club. With the structure around him it’s a great chance to progress not only us but his own career and with him being so young he’ll realise this and hopefully he’ll become a huge success here.
According to the mad one on the other side of the road, Johnson to be named today and is at the roker hotel now. Probably having breakfast with rodwell, storey and himself. PS he still thinks it’s not a takeover
Not quite right, some of our fans were singing his *on fire* song from the day we signed him. Sadly he turned out to be nothing more than a damp squib.
It's because JS is already here and the new lad is not buying it all. When you look at it, and see the split and what's actually going to happen, it's a takeover like.
That'd be an unexpected ending to his time with us. He seems to be the epitome of a confidence player and he's had none since we signed him so I think it is possible that with the right manager he could still do it. Ross didn't want him. Parky was as engaging as an Easter Island head and had a potentially dangerous obsession with Wyke. Maybe Johnson knows how to tickle his balls just right and will get him scoring.
The fact that it’s at the efl for approval says it’s a takeover, wouldn’t be there for a share restructure
That's probably why Cowley didn't come - he 'had a word with the players' before the last match and everyone saw the reaction!!
I have to say I wanted Cowley but since I finished work last night and looked into Lee Johnson I am very impressed with what I have seen. That small video of him doing that training session is very good. Love the way he keeps stopping them.and correcting them and then setting them away again until they are doing what he wants..looks impressive
Rum smoothies were the way to go last night......unfortunately this mornings drinks a case of plink plink ...fizz.
Onwards and upwards, new structure completely and suitably qualified people in key roles. Very exciting and feels as though we are building great foundations to succeed. Let's hope its true and LJ is here now and he gets to speak to the players before the game and puts a bit fire in their bellies. If he can get our forward line firing he's a cracking head coach. He's unlucky in that 09, Gooch and Willis in particular are all out, but we should still have enough to win games in this league.
Have you heard anything refference the FPP loan, ie is it to be paid back or stay in place? Cheers know you get loads replies & struggle to get through them all, just wondered on your take on this
Bore off the best you can come up with? I got that with Parkinson...we have appointed Parkinson MkII.
