KLD has a lot to think about . . .

Honestly don’t just think it’s a simple sack LJ or keep LJ. Should he choose the former I think he’d have to also get rid of KS . . . A big(ger) name manager won’t come and work with the same DoF, maybe no DoF at all. The likes of Wilder, Keane, Big Sam wouldn’t come under those circumstances. They might not come at all but this is a HUGE moment in the future few months (possibly seasons) of our club.

Over to you

None of those names are realistic choices for League One.

Maybe a coach from abroad? None of the names in and around this country give me any confidence that we wouldn't be looking for another manager again in 8/12 month.
 
I'm honestly not that fussed about today, but that's me. Against Charlton and Sheffield Wednesday we were outbattled and Johnson provided no solution, so he gets stick for that. I wasn't at Rotherham so can't really comment.

He's under pressure at the moment, but talk of sacking him is premature.

It's not. We have a soft underbelly - I've said it before.
 
Speakman a prat in my book and has nothing to do with signings that is Stewart Harvey’s role he’s head of recruitment.
Speakman (and Johnson) makes the decisions, Harvey recommends the players. It was Speakman who decided against getting that Liverpool left back and waiting it out for Cirkin, not Harvey! The recruitment team as a whole have been good so far, but January will be another test and hopefully KLD will do what it takes to get some added steel in the middle of the park
 
While I like Warnock I don’t think he’s the one for us.
Likewise I’ve rapidly lost faith in LJ and wouldn’t lose any sleep if he gets the bullet.
If he does go I’d like the club to go for a young upcoming foreign head coach as I think , in principle the foundations are there
 
Speakman's a corporate gobshite.
KLD’s biggest mistake imo.
On his arrival, had a meeting with all the players and said my name is Kristian Speakman if you don’t know me already, look me up on a Google search, it will tell you all about me.
Players pissed themselves laughing at him when he walked out.
 
I certainly hope KLD has more mental steel about him that the majority of fans on here who seem to have fallen to pieces after 2 weeks of it being a bit difficult.
A bit difficult? We got absolutely pummelled at Pompey, we got lucky against Gillingham, shocking performance against Charlton, we give up in a 5-1massacre at Rotherham, we offered nothing in a 3-0 defeat at Sheff Wed and we’ve just been beat by a team joint 4th bottom of League 2, it’s a bit more than difficult and it hasn’t certainly been over 2 weeks. We have every right to be very concerned, anyone else that just says oh well KTF are part of the problem.

It's mental mind, just a few weeks back Johnson was on cloud nine, with the fans, after the QPR game. Mind boggling what's happened.
 
If we don’t beat Ipswich KLD and Speakman have a very big decision to make. Do they back Johnson despite likely fan unrest and despite his previous clubs experiencing something similar, and risk us not going up for the sake of stability or do they believe that the players they’ve recruited are good enough and bite the bullet to try and rescue automatic promotion this season?

I suspect it’ll be the former for the next but they’ll be preparing for the latter nevertheless
I hope so. If they were professionals they would’ve been preparing for the latter since the day they started at safc.

Any DOF, CEO, Chairman or owner who cant immediately name his top six shortlist for his next manager/head coach is a useless clueless unprofessional idiotwho has no business being at a 21st century professional football club. If we are constantly scouring data for players then surely we are constantly scouring data for managers/dofs/head coaches? How Micky mouse would it be not to be?
