JoshOWTB Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Ill give him a chance before I join the Johnson out group. I had a lot of patience for Dickov and stayed supporting him long after he probably should have gone. I hope Johnson is good enough to keep us up, I really do...

IOWA1984 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 (edited) Don't care if crusty the clown is in charge. The guy deserves a chance to prove us all wrong. He is Oldham's new manager (most probably), people having a pop even before he has sat in his chair isn't going to help. Yes, not the appointment we expected but if he can kick that sorry lot up the arse and not be afraid to break some egos we may have a chance. TP did a sterling but didn't want the job so bringing some one in that does may make all the difference.

JoshOWTB Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I posted this in another thread but should post it here too... How confirmed is this? Are we (and other news sources) taking the Sky Sports article as the truth? What if they are wrong! Perhaps it's another manager being announced at 2pm and Lee as his number 2?

jbrown23 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Just reading the report on MEN about him, apparently he's watched quite a few games and handed over a dossier of the players strengths and weaknesses so, fair play to the lad, he's done his homework and if he genuinely believes he can fix the weaknesses then good luck to him. The problem is, will he have time to fix them given that Tuesday is huge and I seriously doubt he'll be able to do any work with them before that, then we're away too Shrews Saturday who are another team we should be looking to beat but again, how much work will he get to do with the players? Day off Wednesday after the game, training Thursday and Friday. I don't see that as enough. Therefore, its going to be down to his motivational skills to save us which, having no experience I'm not confident on. I'm trying to look beyond the doom and gloom, middle finger to Corney and the board, cheap option stuff that's been banded around (by myself included) and be positive about todays appointment. We should all back the manager regardless of the outcome, Lee Johnson won't get us relegated but he damn well might save us!

beag_teeets Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Ray Charles could have cobbled together a dossier on each player's strengths and weaknesses that would be pretty accurate, most of the files in them would be remarkably similar too...

I don't disagree at all, infact I think a lot of people on here could have put together much more valid and in depth reports on each player. The point I was trying to make is that whilst he doesn't have any managerial experience a least he has a bit of base knowledge of the ineptness of the players and knows (in his opinion) how and where to improve them. Whether he can do that in the limited time available remains to be seen. It may also give him a bit of free reign to drop undroppables having no ties or commitments to the players and having reviewed them he might have formulated his own plan on how to save us To be honest I'm clutching at positives a bit. There aren't that many to this appointment but I'm just hoping the new lad gives it his best and gets the players playing with a bit of desire and passion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forte_Baby Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 He has got my backing all he did was apply for a job and got it. Said on Saturday Corney needed to act, atleast now it brings some stability to the team. My worry is a bad start and fans will be on his back if we get relegated it aint his fault.
