NOw that would be a joy! However, I think you’re on a wind-up. I'd seriously be really watered off if that would ever happen, I think DC has too much respect for us to do that Trouble is i thought that knut taylor had too much respect for us, money talks taylor walks. |

Though my D.C post was indeed a jest, if he were offered the post no way would he turn it down ,why would he ?

This is a totally unacceptable turn of events.
I've only just got used to singing 'cheer up Wee Lee Johnson' after focusing, because my song tourrette was forcing the 'cheer up Benny Lenartson' tick.
So selfish getting rid of it when I thought he was doing well.

Given that the midget has an awful run of form every season at this point I’m shocked they’ve got rid. Especially as who is realistically going to do a better job? Johnson’s had to work with getting the best out of sh** players like Benik Afobe for years. Who’s an option for them that’s better? Doesn’t exist in my opinion, thinking it’s a slow drop back to League 1 in a couple of years if I had to put money on it

If they appoint chris hughton they will get into the play-offs next season but hopefully they will make a poor appointment.

If Hughton gets it Trolls will be his assistant again I reckon

They’ve always been a funny side under Johnson in that they have spells where they look like world beaters then spells where they can’t buy a win for a couple of months. I’m guessing they’ll be pleased with the news of his sacking. Don’t think he’s done a bad job on the whole though. Just shows how dillusional sh*theads are that for some reason they think they’ve got this right to be challenging promotion. Tbf with their squad and resources they should be regularly sniffing around the playoffs Is odd how they can look pretty decent v the Manchester teams etc but not carry any kind of consistency to the league I think their resources are quite minimal when you compare them to big/ex prem clubs in the championship. I wouldn’t say he’s done a great job but I certainly don’t think he’s under achieved. I’d say I expect them to be anywhere between 9th and 18th in the championship every season, that’s just the size of the club they are. Anything better than that and I’d say they’re overachieving really. |

Sh1!heads are saying that the Shortarse wasn’t at the Thursday presser which has never happened before. They did the same to Clitterell the press conference before he was fired so it’s my guess the little twat knew he was a dead man walking.
Perhaps Landsdown managed to get hold of the photographic evidence and the negatives and felt safe in firing his stumpy arse.

Let's face it they've spent a fortune chasing the holy grail of premiership football. Indeed I recall some aspirational dream of playing in Europe. What an expensive joke. They remain a mid table Championship club. I wish we had spent a fraction of their resources on players. If we had I'm confident that we would be enjoying Champoinship football also. Not sure that's true to be fair. They've made a slot of money on home grown players. Probably made as much or more than they have spent under LJ at a guess on transfers. It’s not untrue just because they’ve sold players too. They have spent 60M and likely would have even without their sales. |

I think "made money" is doing them a favour. I'd imagine it's just covering their wage bill after yet another failure. |

No way the sh** were thinking of replacing their manager at the beginning of the restart to the championship as they were only a point adrift of the playoffs so this is definitely a knee jerk reaction and probably because they fans have expressed their unwillingness to continue with Johnson who I think is a bloody good manager! He brought in players and sold them for a healthy sell on price and I feel for the guy because any club coming back from 3 months off due to covid should be allowed time as players are well out of fitness and form. I think and yes of course hope that this comes back to bite them where it hurts but I do feel for Lee Johnson as hes done a terrific job in my view.

2 points out of the last 30.
Terrific job.
And it's not even his worst run.

They have done very well with profit made on some players. Reid, Bryan, Flint, Webster to name a few. |

Villa for instance Hope your right. A city work mate said about hughton and when i looked at his record it made perfect sense. He got brighton promoted without the benefit of the ridiculous parachute payments and he would get backing from lansdown to make a promotion push. See what happens i suppose. |
