slystallone Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Nope, after a quick period of reflection, I agree with the chap on twitter, sack Johnson right away. Worked for County, they sacked their manager and won a game 2 days later. Seems to me to be a foolproof, smashing idea... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dec666 Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 The whole 'Happy clapper' and 'moaner' thing drives me crazy. Can't people just say what they've watched every week? I think LJ has made a lot of mistakes in the last few weeks, negative at Wolves, starting Millar up front and our best forward in the last few games, Philiskirk, out wide. Our away form has been dire and needs sorting. Those are my honest opinions, others may disagree that's what this place is for, it doesn't mean I want the manager sacked and 11 players dropped. Criticism never hurt anybody! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

opinions4u Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 I'd have preferred us to lose badly on Saturday in return for a win tonight with the crucial goals going in after this :censored: thread started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry lee but your time is up as a manager . Perhaps we could do what Yeovil did and demote lee like they did with skiverton and they appointed Gary Johnson . Result oh yeah promotion . How about asking lee to take a step down and appoint dowie as manager because going into November it's :censored:e. Sorry but lee just isn't up to it On his own anyway. . Desparately need an experienced man to guide this young experienced but talented team. 6 away defeats in 7 . Dear god... I've been told its going to click . When ... ???

MAC0AFC Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 We will do you think 8 defeats out of 14 is good enough with this team I dont doesnt matter how we are playing we are not winning enough games as of sat we are a third of the way through the season amd sit on 14 points. i didn't say that, i simply said we hadn't lost... and we hadn't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doctor evil Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 i dont get how people can winge 1 week about us changing the team at wolves and saying we should stick with a winning team and then the next week moan when he sticks with the team that started the last match we won saying we should have changed it. yes we got beat and yes they are not the best in this league but as others have said, neither are we. we were missing tarky, arguably our best player and definitely best defender. Im as a annoyed as the next man that we lost but you have to pick out the positives as well as the negatives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAC0AFC Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 what's the definition of a happy clapper??? everyone who gives reasoned response to a negative comment gets labelled a happy clapper, so can a 'boo boy' please explain what a happy clapper is please?

PlayItLivo Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Should Leyton Orient have sacked Russell Slade at the start of last season after having a similar start to how we have had this season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dec666 Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 When it's constructive... as opposed to "that was wank"..."we're wank"... I agree, it's just frustrating when constructive criticism, and pointing out errors LJ has made (in my opinion of course) get's you thrown in to the moaners bracket. I do agree there's a big difference between some of the posters on here calling for the manager to go and constructive criticism though.

garcon Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Given that Oldhamers are genetically disposed to never be happier than when they're moaning, the only bit I'm confused about is the clapping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
