    I'm biased cos I'd just found out I was going to be a dad that morning, brought some non-BFC mates with me to the game who loved it, then had an amazing night out in York laughing at Leeds fans, but that's probably my all time favourite game. We absolutely battered them. Should have been a cricket score.

    It's up there with the 5-2 the previous season.

    I don't get when people refer to him as one of the worst managers we've ever had. Him and Johnson don't deserve half the stick they get. Hill was doing well but then had the rug pulled from under him in January as many other managers have.

    I wondered when we'd get round to Lee Johnson. I've just got 4 words to say:

    Bottom of League One.

    The job at Barnsley was too easy for him. He over complicated such a simple game and nearly ruined a good side.

    100% spot on .
    Maybe he was misunderstood by most of us.

    He did get us to the jpt final and went on a 7 game winning run before leaving us.

    He was another victim of St Pat's - had we not sold Vaz Te we could have competed that season

    It wasn't facts though Whitey. He came in and made these big boasts and claims and when he couldn't back them up he denied saying them and slagged the supporters and club off. That's why people disliked him, his dishonesty and refusal to accept his own failures.

    What big boasts were they then? I remember him saying that we could compete in the championship, which we did for the 1st half of the season.

    I've never denied he had his midfield pulled away from him half way through this season, this was wrong and unfair. His general demeanor though, how he blamed fans, and how things appeared to be everyone's fault but his made me not like the bloke as much as other managers.

    That said, the opening 10 seconds when he was in charge against Palace has to be one of the best opening ten seconds of a football match I've ever see.

    I've mixed feelings of the guy. I think much of his dialogue was to take pressure off his players and make himself the target. But he just did it too much and carried it on far too long.

    The period we had Vaz Te, Butterfield, Perkins, Drinkwater and Davies, we played some cracking football. Sadly we lost them all very swiftly and just never recovered from that.

    I'd still rather have him as coach than Flitcroft though.
