    i think he'll go onto be a top manager. could be proved wrong like. 150+ games under his belt, rapid progress through Leagues 2, 1 & now Championship. and he's only 34.

    Never managed at League 2 level has he?

    He's obviously very well thought of - I imagine we'll be going for someone similar from a coaching perspective.

    I think that statement is for the City fans who have been moaning like ****, because the board have given LJ the job.

    I doubt think it's in doubt he'll go far.

    He's a really bright you'd manager.

    His shocking spell and resurgence with us will have taught him a lot.

    he aint owt spesh. he were one less tolerant chairman away from serving steak bakes in greggs, because after altrincham, that would have been best he could have hoped for. Hes a bit 'emperors new clothes' for me.

    I think his career could go either way. The Bristol job is a hard one.

    Their chairman is known for talking ballax. He often throws around unsubstantiated grandiose comments like that to appease the fans.

    He talks utter *****.

    If Prem teams were interested, LJ wouldnt be at the ar5e end of the Champ. He'd have dropped his knickers for the big boys.
