    What is wrong with that? Think of of it like a courtroom.

    One person stands up and informs the jury that LJ guided the club to the bottom of League 1 in December when his aim was to fight for promotion, he failed to beat part-timers and lead the club to the worst losing run in around 40 years. Every sane person on the jury would think he should of course be sacked.

    Then another person stands up and informs the jury that LJ has turned things around guiding the club 12 places up the division with a real chance of the playoffs after a 6 game winning run and has lead the club to its first Wembley appearance in 8 years. A lot of people on the jury would start to change their minds.

    Just stop with all this I didn't want him sacked so I'm a better fan BS. There is nothing wrong with changing your mind. To be quite frank I still think you need your head testing if you seriously wanted to keep LJ after Altrincham away.

    You do see the irony in that last paragraph?

    i've been chuffed to bits to see him gradually winning people round, and in my opinion he's worked his b0llocks off to do that. not personally seen much gloating at all over the past few weeks. what i have an issue with, are the people who wanted him out, who are now criticising him for not showing loyalty. that to me isn't fair, it's just hypocrisy. i've even seen him called a $hit house rat today. that's just bang out of order for me.

    That was me that said he had the loyalty of a **** house rat.

    He doesn't owe me anything, I would have sacked him long since.

    He does however owe PC a great deal in return.

    Just my opinion like.

    Spot on.

    I was all for him being sacked after standing on that terrace at Altrincham in the passing rain and witnessing us lose 8 league games in a row.

    The change in the team since that run though has been phenomenal . We've won 6 league games in a row, our last 6 away games in all competitions and we've a date at Wembley in April. I'll be upset if he leaves for city now. Some people are too proud to admit their opinions may have changed though.
