Lee Johnson

[Mantobar]

Hopefully this window will sort us out, defender ,striker and winger

 

[Seaham Towny]

I like him, I was indifferent previously.

What persuaded me was the injury list last two seasons when he’s adapted and got us playing.

 

[vinegar hill]

Well if you look at our points tally in the calendar year 2021 for all the divisions only Manchester City are above us.
It makes a mockery of the fuckers wanting him out.

 

[Safc88]

I can't wait for Tuesday.

Same mate

Very very longtime since felt like this. You know we will create chances a play good stuff

 

[Geronimo]

In a strange way I think the injuries we've had have helped him. He's had to stick to a settled side and it's allowed players like Pritchard and Wright find some form.

Absolutely.

Ppg has decided we aren't going up. Such a shame

 

[officerbill]

He simply has to be kept on next season even if we don't go up.

So we have to reward failure then ??

 

[Clivewalkershair]

If we don't go up he can fuck off

 

[Ch1982]

The interplay between Embleton, Pritchard and Stewart is an absolute joy. They'll all do a job in the Championship

Add Neil to that too.

 

[mediaclee]

Like last season, he seems to do better when he has less first choice options!

He has done very well since we lost against Mansfield and I finally agreed that he should go. Great turn around.

 

[SAFC Wilks]

You can see some sort of identity with the way we play. I’d certainly not be calling for him to be immediately sacked if we fail to go up.*

*Provided we continue to play like this for the majority of the remaining games.

 

[chopsfc007]

Why would you keep someone who would have failed

 

[Mowgli]

Why would you keep someone who would have failed

What gives a better chance of going up next year? Keeping somebody who narrowly missed out while playing well and developing young players or starting all over again.

Don't get me wrong, anything bar promotion is unacceptable for Sunderland at this level. But let's just see of it comes to that.

 

[pixie345]

I was proud of how we dealt with the situation today, despite the disappointment of a last second goal. We applied ourselves correctly and fairly in adverse circumstances at times. We played football on the deck and beyond the standard of L1 at times.

 

[Sweeper]

He simply has to be kept on next season even if we don't go up.

I completely agree. Every player is improving, and the players clearly like him. The team is clearly improving.

That’s his job - to improve the players and the team. Week by week, month by month.

 

[Steesafc]

We battered them second half playing football. A different day we'd have come away winning by 2 or 3 today but as it went they were fortunate with a last gasp equaliser.

I really think we have the formula this season, 10 without defeat and playing some really good stuff. Lets be fair, Wycombe will be in the top 6 and struggled to cope second half so it bodes well.

 

[WildinHetton]

Like LJ alot and want him to succeed. He and his staff have worked wonders with some of the players but thought he was a bit dejected after the game. The number of quality chances we created in the 2nd half and still only to come away with a point must have been very disappointing for him( and us). Reinforces our need for a beast CB and let's hope we get him plus a back up striker for Big Rod just in case fate follows its usual course with us and shits all over us.

 

[Why sack Durban]

What about the fact we concede hatfuls away from home whenever we play a decent side . It’s also about being able to organise at the other end

 

[The Cabbage]

Him keeping the job depends on the circumstances of the rest of our season. I certainly wouldn’t automatically get rid of we don’t get up though. All manner of reasons why that could happen and context is essential. He’s most definitely the best manager we’ve had since being down here.

 

[the sleeping giant]

I'm not totally sold on the bloke and certainly not sure he's a long-term appointment (and the whole 'streaky' thing worries me greatly) but credit where it's due...

We are playing excellent football and in the right way. The squad is learning and getting stronger as the season progresses - very proud of the players today and that effort and improvement has to go down to the boss, however he's achieved it since the horrors of November.
