No improvement under Johnson.

[Mowbray Boss Gilet]

I honestly think we were better under Parkinson. Things need to improve pretty fast or people will be on Johnson's back within the next few games if it doesn't.

 

[MackemMagic]

He’s working with his hands and feet tied behind his back with this group of players - they’re woeful

 

[Tannerabag]

The bloody chuckle brothers have got us into this mess, the b******s.

 

[Safc88]

He seems to been getting a tune out of him.

results havnt been great but to say there isn’t an improvement all be it slight is rubbish


the best thing Lee has done is shift Power out the middle

Hes been banging them in, fair play

 

[6inarow]

Our most dynamic players are missing....Gooch, Hume and Onien......we will get better 100%

 

[1more]

We are seriously lacking a goal scorer. A Marcus Stewart, David Connolly type

Someone like that would make a massive difference

 

[Burnopfield Mackem]

Trying to undo the Ross/Parky shit show. That first 35 wouldn’t have occurred under those two negative knackers. A lot of work to do but very early days.

O'Nien controlled the ball more in 10 minutes than Scowen did in 85 ! Maybe a pointer for Tuesday

I thought Scowen was one of our better players today. He gave us a bit bite and never stopped working when the rest of them seemed static at times.

 

[SAFC_Jack]

They havent improved but hes got the worst crop of players in the clubs history i will reserve my judgement. However like ive said before he reeks of Coleman to me, talks a great game but the proof will be in the pudding.

Think the Coleman comparison is shite tbh.

You can see what he’s trying to do when we’ve had good spells against Wimbledon, Plymouth and Shrewsbury. The players we have are limited though.

Replacing McFadzean, and having better options when we sub Diamond/McGeady would see us doing better. Having Gooch back will be big as well.

 

[Ghandi Floss]

While the performances haven’t improved greatly, he’s took over a poor squad, with hardly any attacking threat or pace.
Plus, until the takeover is completed, the ruination and feeling of failure Donald and Methven have ingrained throughout the club, will hinder any real progression.
His appointment didn’t inspire me, and may turn out to be a dud, but it’s hard to judge in the current climate.

How will they do that on a stream? He hasn't even had a full transfer window to do anything, he's not a magician.

 

[Tin Soldier]

Until he gets rid of the likes of Graham Power Fadz, Grigg, Maguire O’Brien et al he/we are going nowhere

 

[Deleted member 4700]

O'Nien controlled the ball more in 10 minutes than Scowen did in 85 ! Maybe a pointer for Tuesday

Err no, he was one of the only players that tracked back and grafted and won the ball back.

 

[Vito]

Hard to judge him with that team for me, see what we do after the summer transfer window

 

[Safc Shields]

Sadly the players are not good enough the table don’t lie

 

[Ashley In!!]

Needs to abandon the idea that Scowen is first name on the team sheet once all the other options are fit.

 

[KNGHTHOOD]

I agree so far but a lot of work to undo Parkys absolute shite. The full philosophy was cross the ball in. I think he needs a full pre season with the team.

Think we might play a bit better down Ipswich with no crowd on their backs

 

[I am Boss]

The results have

1.5 points per game under Johnson

1.75 under Parkinson this season

 

[Mowbray Boss Gilet]

Are you forgetting social media. It does filter through to everyone at the club when criticism is shown on here, twitter, facebook etc.

I'm happy to be patient, but we all know a lot of Sunderland fans aren't patient and want quick results, especially now we're in League 1.

 

[Sea to Shining Sea]

Yes they have.

12 points from 8 games isn’t it?

Parkinson had 23 from 13? (A draw under the caretaker iirc)

If I’m correct, that’s 1.77 PPG for Parkinson and 1.5 PPG for Johnson. These stats ultimately mean nowt, but technically results haven’t improved.
