Johnson Out

This is 6 times champions of England SAFC in league one ffs. We need someone who will get us out of this shit division, not be somewhere for a manager to work themselves out in the hope he might achieve something.

And our last title came in 1936.
Let's not use the '6 time champions' we're massive, we deserve a top manager as we're a massive club, line. Makes us look like pricks.

We are in league one for a reason. We have as much right to be here as any other team regardless of our infrastructure.

This may be where Johnson establishes himself, gets himself a promotion on his record and does good things with us.

I'd suggest giving him more than 30 matches, with an inherited squad, to do so.

If you think Hume is match fit after so long out, you need your head looking at.

He started Hume not long ago. If he’s not match fit, why is he starting games?

Why not start Hume, and bring him off when Wilkes isn’t as fresh to run at McFadzean?

Why not bring Hume on at half time, which we could all see needed to be done.
 
Don't take notice of him.
Wants a manager sacked because he's not starting a player he wants starting.
 
Make your mind up man.

What are you on about? He started Hume once and then reverted to playing McFadzean. If Hume is fit enough to start (which he did) then the only reason Johnson has to start McFadzean against one of the best wide players in the league is because he thinks he’s better.

It was a huge mistake from Johnson last night and I disagree with anyone who defends him on it.

Your opening post complained of him not started Hume over MacFadzean. You've actually posted that he has :D :D :D

No it isn't. That's conjecture and you're using it as your position to want a manager sacked, it's ludicrous.

I suggest you have the available data and stats in relation to Humes fitness and you watch both in training to deduce the fact you believe Hume SHOULD be starting and for him not to be is tantamount to being sacked?

Or maybe there is another reasonable explanation available and you don't want to see it....

Wants a manager sacked because he left a decent LB on the bench whilst playing someone who we all know is shit. Who cost us 3 points, who had the worst performance of any sunderland LB, probably ever.

Also because he thinks he’s smarter than every manager in the league, tries to out tactic them by chopping and changing formation & personnel every week.

Who doesn’t have a set play style so theirs no consistency. We went away to the league leaders and pressed them off the park, why didn’t we try to do that away at Blackpool or Wigan?

We’ve got 2 points from a possible 15.

He also has no credentials to suggest he knows how to get a team promoted. He’s avoided relegation before, but has consistently failed when trying to get teams up. His goal with Bristol City was play-offs and failed every time.

He also has a worse PPG this season that Parkinson, who didn’t even use McGeady.

18 goals and 6 assists would suggest its based on data and not conjecture.

As I’ve said plenty, of Hume is on the bench he’s at least fit for 45 minutes. He could’ve played the first half and McFadzean wouldn’t have been as exposed against a tiring Wilkes.

It’s not the only reason no, it’s one of them though.
But then posts that he did

Two.

Aye two, I stand corrected.
 
If we are not promoted some questions do need to be asked by Kyril to be honest, we don’t want yet another situation where we get halfway through another season only to sack another manager and struggle to pick up what they left.

Kyril needs to decide if he wants his own man in charge if we are not promoted and like it or not will need to try and back Johnson until at least near the end of next season before getting rid of he underperforms.
Agree.

We have to be honest and say we havent really improved since Johnson has taken over and the football is not much better to watch either.

Our transfer business in January has proven very poor indeed and Johnson was integral to that. Given that we spent significantly for a Div 3 club the purchase of Winchester, Stewart and loaning of Vokins has ultimately cost us promotion because the three to date have proven very poor signings.

Of course some our players are weak and spineless, given that they are the best paid in the division with the best training facilities.

The question for the new owners, with this in mind, do they stick with Johnson in the hope he improves or we go for a better candidate.
 
Whilst I agree calling for sackings so soon is daft let’s not pretend Johnson has done well in his spell here.

He’s not achieving the same standard of results as the previous manager and the systems he’s been using have resulted in some awful performances. He’ll get time to sort it but if he does what he did post Doncaster and reverts back to the ridiculous formations he’s been using previously then he’ll prove he’s never going to learn.

What do you mean he’s not achieving the same standard of results? Everyone was crying the other day he’s more or less the same as Parkinson record wise.

If anything it speaks more volumes about the players and recruitment not being good enough than the manager now. Say what you want about Johnson and whoever went before him but this team has a lot of flaws. It quite simply isn’t good enough for automatic promotion right now and hasn’t been since we came down or we woulda been in the championship by now.
 
Who would you replace him with? Also; if we replace him and we’re not in the top 2 in say October/November, would you then sack the new manager?

That’s too lenient. Anything less than win each game should be cause for an immediate sacking.

Just have keep on sacking them till someone realises its unacceptable and we never lose a game again.

His record is slightly worse than Parkinson’s.

There a flaws in the squad but manager isnt helping by doing things like playing Leadbitter in a two, forcing O’Brien in up front or leaving macfadzean on the pitch when it’s clear he’ll cost us.

What I’m hoping is that he learns from his mistakes he’s made so far. Team selection Saturday will be telling. If we go back to 4-2-4 then it’ll show he’s not learning his lesson.
 
The 'Happy Clappers' have the 'Bed Wetters' on the ropes on this thread. 'Bed Wetters' need to start throwing some decent shots back, the ref is looking interested in a stoppage.....maybe they could tag the 'Knee Jerkers' in.

Ha Ha class,he came in at xmas and its april now sack the fucker.To think we could have had Cowleys or Cook ........oh shit wipe that last comment.People need to realize there is no chance of KLD sacking him till at least the end of next season.
 
The OP :lol: Ive only noticed him posting over the last couple of weeks, bet he will be gutted if we do go up.

Also the argument that we have been top division champions 6 times is irrelevant. Ipswich were regulars in Europe and have won a European trophy but are now languishing in mid table. Forest have won the European Cup but are currently closer to relegation to League 1 than promotion to the Premier League.
