You'll rarely get fans 100% behind managers. Fans form opinions that take a lot of shifting. This season's brief now is to grind enough points to survive and I don't care how ugly they are gained. The fans that go to matches in the main will get behind the team and boss. Stuff on here should be taken with a pinch of salt. i 100% agree, but he doesn't give off an air of confidence, he may well turn out to be a completely different manager with a fully fit injury free squad, with closed season additions, only time will tell.

Inherited a shambles. Far more than fire and belief (or lack of) at play. I'll judge him on how the team perfoms next season. Returning players will, I am certain, make a positive difference. Anyway I guess we'll have to agree to differ on Jos. Edited March 17, 2018 by Xxxxxxxxcxcc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beauchief Owl Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 About time Jos thought about bigging up his own team rather than Leeds' strikers. Their form isn't much better than ours for goodness sake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to think that our staggering injury situation must bottom out. Looking like Bannan, Hutch, Lees and FF might soon be playing together which would be a massive boost. Hooper, Lee, Westwood; who knows? I expect us to survive and agree with your last paragraph; then it's up to Jos and he'll be rightly judged then.

We'll stay up IMO and also IMO he'll be more properly judged next season. But the original comment was that Jos was not up to this job. What’s the size of hertha got to do with that? It sounds like your only real understanding of Jos has come from Wikipedia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bit about Hertha was in response to a subsequent post. Might sound like that to you but it would be a wrong assumption. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps Jos will be rewarded for his refusal to rush players back as has happened in the past. Bosses with smaller sweetbreads might well have caved in to pressure of results and form.

I suspect that he'd have stood firm. Short term fixes don't seem to be on his agenda and I welcome that personally. Anyway; we won and with more of our better players to come back after the break I'm confident that we'll kick on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
