I had Dyce at left back (the u23 we signed from WBA) but you mentioned the lad from Man City sow as asking if you thought I was talking about Doyle
Yep sorry i was getting Dyce and Doyle mixed up.

Mate ,what had Jordan Pickford done ,he was snapped up before we had a chance to enjoy his skills,the academy is there to bring future players on, i am happy that Embeldon had a belter with his loan and i am thankful he stayed with us instead of going to the

Fair point re Pickford and I get the comparison with Embleton, for me though, don’t see Embleton necessarily starting for us as I’m not convinced Johnson genuinely rates him.
Fraser would have been a good signing imho but it’s too late now.
I see Evans has now signed and it seems like there may be some more imminent arrivals with Doyle, possibly Lichaj, Dale and the striker (assuming it’s not Dale).
It will be interesting to see how we line up on Saturday.
those last comments sent a shiver down my back
looking forward to it i hope this season is the one for promotion
Only seen Dyce play the once, but he looked promising, and could see him getting the odd game or two if he is lucky. certainly looks like he could be one for the future.I had Dyce at left back (the u23 we signed from WBA) but you mentioned the lad from Man City sow as asking if you thought I was talking about Doyle
I wonder if Wigan asked a Sunderland fan for opinions on Wyke. They would be in danger of thinking they have just signed me if they asked the wrong fanthose last comments sent a shiver down my back


What is it with people wanting to knock this set up? After all the animosity towards Stewart Donald, you'd think that people would be pleased to have a young owner, with fresh ideas, and a family background in football club ownership. I can understand a healthy dose of pessimism but people just seem to want to criticise and its always presented as 'realism' or claims of being more knowledgeable.
you dont have to be Mystic Meg to predict that one, so i hope he or his team has read your commentWell IMO if LJ doesn’t have a team that’s there or there about s after ten to fifteen games he will be a dead man walking. We are not renowned for patience after the last 10 years of s hit.

My fear is we could be 5 points clear and Johnson will still be getting grief.10 matches in will be against Cheltenham at home. We will need to be thereabouts.....a couple of points either way... at the top of this league following that match.
Maybe they are the ones ex players and managers refer to as 'toxic'. Certainly couldn't argue with that.
I think much of the criticism that both Lee Johnson and Louis-Dreyfuss have been getting across the various platforms is for very flimsy reasons.'toxic' implies nastiness for flimsy reasons. I think we could easily justify being more 'toxic' tbh, given what we've seen over the last ten years. Frustrated, yes, impatient, absolutely, but toxic? Not for me.

I hope not he won’t have deserved it, it’s not his fault players haven’t been brought in, but he’s the manager so he gets the short straw.My fear is we could be 5 points clear and Johnson will still be getting grief.
