It was relegtion form befor johnson turned up , i dont think we woud be in a much better position without him.

I would like johnson to stay and build his own team , no matter what division we are in. As i know it will be crosby or some one else juast as bad who replaces him. At least with johnson we have a manager that knows how to get out of these divisions

We will stay up , keep the faith ! ,. Im not all that confident my self , i just know if we dont support the team and start whinging ....we will go down !

Every litle helps now , and no matter how much moaning you do . Its too late for anything you say to take effect , so get behind the boys !

I cannot believe people are calling for Johnson's head.

No one has been. With 2 games left, there's little point.

Question -

If we had started a new season with GJ in charge, and we mirrored our current record with him at the helm, how long would people give him until there were calls for him to go? Is 6 pts from 33 good enough?

I was over the moon when we appointed him, but I have to say, regardless of what league we find ourselves in next season, the chap shouldn't be here.

Honestly?

You can bet your bottom dollar that when GJ went for the interview with Cardoza, relegation wasn't on the agenda.

Irrelevent, as GJ would have bought in all his own new players.....

Couldn't agree more... He's doing a stunning job of making sure we are out of this division next season...

You'd think that, but when you take a look at how many he's already brought in (six - over half a team) I'd consider it to be very relevent.

I know it wouldnt of been on the agenda , but I said we were showing relegation form befor he turned up.

I think we would be at the other end of the league if johnson had bee appointed at the start of the season , people need to face the facts that the dressing room and all confidence had been lost befor johnson arrived.

I would hate to think where this side would be without Bauza , lets remember who signed harrard and walker (Who seem to be the chosen scape goats)

The one mistake johnson has made , is not realising how f***ing awful we were befor he shook things up . Our league position flatterd us befor Johnson turned up , alot of people on here saw this comming months ago

Yes, but GJ has had to bring in players to "fill the gap". He has only been able to sign out of contract or loans so he has been hindered as to what/who is available. The squad he inhereted is the problem.

We were in deep s*** before GJ came in.  I said at the time that between Christmas and the Burton game we only played one team in the top 7 and that was Port Vale, who had gone into reverse with Micky Adams departure, leaving us with a daunting run in that could easily slip into the relegation dogfight.  And so it has proven.

I wouldn't like to see Johnson go because so many on here feel that he is capable of assembling a team that can challenge for L2 promotion next season - and I want to see if this is true. He was my preferred choice when Sammo went but I'm struggling to understand why he's been so inept since he arrived, making some crazy decisions - the majority of which have backfired. Should we go down he has to take the responsibility.

I also consistently stated that Sammo should be given until the end of the season and be judged then. Otherwise we'd get exactly the "what might have been" arguments we have now.

Johnson needs to stay whatever happens, at least we know that he will attract/find the players to get us out of whatever division we're in next season. As for him changing tactics and players for every match, not much has worked so far so at least he seems to be trying to get us a win rather than putting the same eleven out every week adn watching them fail with no other option or ideas.

Let's be positive.  Under GJ, we have lost 2 less games than Lincoln, and have gained 1 more point than them.  The fact that every other team has better form than us over the same period is irrelevant.

And to prove we can top the table, look - we've beaten Histon!!!!

http://www.footymad.net/sequences-statistics/

Just so everyone knows, as GJ asked all those that criticise him not to go to Sixfields, I ain't going to spend all that time and effort getting to Sixfields again 'til he's packed his bags and gone to crash another club (pity Peterborough saw sense so quickly).  Happy to support them away.  But, I'm not paying money to keep a hypocrite in a job.  (You know the one - 'lob a few hand grenades into the dressing room', 'build my own team', 'they're not doing what I tell them', 'I had to lose my temper with them', 'the penny's starting to drop with a few of them', etc)

Spot on.

Disgraceful man-management skills.

When is the last time we had a manager with a proven record ?

I know he has made mistakes , and if we go down it wil be partly his fault ut he is obviously a talented manager. Even if we were to go down , we would not get a better manager to get us out of the conference. I think Johnson has proved he is better at building a promotion side than he is at saving one that is in complete free fall.

As for johnsons comments about the idiots in the west stand , i think he is right. If you dont open your mouth to support the team , then you shouldnt have a right to open it to abuse it. Go and sit in the away stand . I have a sneaky suspicion that if we go down , all these morons will be watching the saints next season anyway.

If you got rid of all the moaners and just had the supporting fans we would win , as we seem to play better when the fans are behind the team and seem to do better infront of smaller gates. So if your one of the idiots shouting abuse , stay at home . You wont be missed
