Call me old fashioned but I like a successful management team not a failed one.

5 wins in a row and some on here think Johnson is back to being the next messiah! 🤣
The whole management team need to Foxtrot Oscar.

1 promotion and 1 playoff final followed by a below par season and a relegation. Depends if you're a glass half full or glass half empty merchant. No prizes as to which camp you're in.

Nobody knows what the budget was though - it could just as easily have been bad recruitment as lack of funds.

Apparently if you listen to Johnsons latest interview we got relegated due to bad luck - I mean thats just ludicrous. Its hardly bad luck if you mismanage your squad to such an extent you fill it with fullbacks and centre halves and cant put a striker on the bench for half a season.

There were three half decent teams in this leagues - the remainder lacked any quality whatsoever.

We need to try something different - Johnson is past his sell by date.
