If we haven't gone to 3 CHs in the second half then I give up...its glaringly obvious we can't cope with a back 4...
Cirkin is fckn bang average Batth is no better than Flanagan , Doyle can't play in a back 4 .
Get it fckn changed man.

Too late now. I'd just replace Doyle with Flanagan. Batth is doing OK but both goals have come from the left centre half area.
 
Our U23s are canny at coming from 2-0 down. Maybe they can come on and do a job?

Is anyone telling Johnson this is f***ing unacceptable. Never mind the ‘project’ it is simply not acceptable for everyone concerned to be spending 5 seasons in this division.

Are we also holding him accountable for the 3 1/2 years before he got here like?

But think about what you are saying. 3 at the back means bringing Flanagan back in, probably for Cirkin or Winchester. If we had a decent player to bring in to play that, fair enough, but Flanagan has been awful the last few games.

Both Winifred AND Cirkin should be out the side.

Then Neil who is a floater following them.

So poor from the keeper for the 1st and poor from Doyle and whoever should have been tracking the runner for the 2nd but it’s Johnsons fault? Have I got that right?

Johnson has them on the training ground week in week out
Why hasn't he sorted this lack of confidence ?
Why hasn't he sorted the defence to who's tracking who etc ?
Why hasn't he addressed the slow first half starts that are nearly every match ?
Why does he change winning team formations?

The @albanian summed it up in a earlier post i quote
"A manager who doesn’t have the first clue on how to pick, motivate, coach and improve a defence will never ever be successful - as demonstrated by Johnson in his entire career"

Can’t defend him when he keeps making the same mistakes.

it says a lot when you say this. You rightly hammered me for being negative re the manager in the summer over something very small and I was wrong. I try to stay positive but it’s just not fair travelling so much and watching the same mistakes over and over. We just cannot defend away from home. Completely different side to at the SOL.
