I dont rate Johnson, simple as that

And I'll be relieved when he eventually gets sacked, don't have any fear in admitting it. A manager is only as good as his signings and his have been poor. He talks mostly nonsense or contradictions, "I watch hours if footage" - I don't need hours of footage to know Wilkinson, Rothwell, Crowley amongst others aren't suited to League 1. Why hasn't he signed a left back yet? What formation are we playing?

Hes dead man walking now as far as I'm concerned. Patrick must've spent millions in severance over the years but it's his money, his choice, no room in football for sentiment, maybe the next appointment will work, or the one after that. Don't subscribe to giving a poor, inexperienced manager time to learn, sorry, football is a results business, no way should we be 19th in League 1 even with this inexperienced squad.

Get shut now. Suggestions for replacement? Jimmy Floyd Hasslebaink.

 

So Hasselbaink would leave a side 3rd in League 1 to join a side 19th in League 1, get real. If you're going to post something like this try and be realistic with manager suggestions.

 

i agree.....JFH is a good call too

Leejay (and Benji) out

 

If Ben Mansford cant convince JFH that Barnsley have more potential than Burton

hes in the wrong job. Thats what Patrick is paying him for isnt it? Poacher (agent) turned Gamekeeper (Chief Exec) - wasnt that the plan?

If it were my money, I'd want someone who can re-inspire the fans, go on I'll say it a bums on seats manager. If JFH manages anything like he played he'll turn out an entertaining, shot hungry team, and thats the opposite of what we are now, hence the dwingling gates & interest.

 

Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink - Seriously? he took over a Burton side what was already built by Gary Rowett (Now got a very poor Birmingham side to 2nd in the Championship) For me Hasselbaink as still got a lot to prove as a manager, as does our LJ.

Ben Mansford got LJ in because he was his agent and obviously likes him, Patrick Cryne obviously agreed and that's that. Its the boards policy to sign young players and then hopefully sell them on for a good profit - their words not mine. Also we had to sell Holgate before we got more players in at the last minute (wasn't we promised it wasn't going to happen again after the O'Grady fiasco). So in that respect LJ as had his hands tied, what team can seriously win anything when the oldest player is 26/27? Jesus I am older and that and I still look like I have only just left school.

I think LJ is losing the plot abit with the tactics/rotation of players because of the pressure, to be honest I don't really care if we sack him or not, I never have felt so disinterested in my life. If we do sack him don't expect anything different well maybe the first couple of matches and then we would be back to square one. We need an investor who is going to be willing to back the club to sign players and not sell but that's never going to happen so get used to how it is.

The fun of Barnsley FC
