He's being backed still and I'm sure Saturday will be a free pass, if he loses it's only the FA cup, if he wins then we've knocked out a prem team and progressed, so will buy him more time. I'm assuming he's being given Sheff Wednesday and Rotherham to turn it around. Both of those away games we should have easily walked away with 6 points but fell apart. I'm thinking he needs 4 points at least. So, if he's still the manager for our next league game then so be it. I'll stick with him, hope we win and it's finally the start of a turn around.

I'm still very much in the "replace him" camp but a few wins will win myself and I'm sure a few others around. This is a big risk Lansdown is taking, he's still providing LJ money to spend on players. Who knows, in a years time we could be looking back at this rough patch and thanking Steve he stuck with him, or we could be playing Rovers.

How many games does he need? Any other manager would have been given the boot by now. Blind loyalty by SL to the Johnson clan, nothing else is keeping him in a job.

I was told today that we are still paying off Steve cotterill so we can not afford to pay three managers by sacking lee Johnson and installing another.
