We will be alright with FFP next season,

 

LJ will come in with a 500k bid for Kelly & Wilson close season although they will be undisclosed bids of course.

In that case its £350,000 each.

I don't normally bother when players/managers leave us, I had no problem with Porter/Furman/Baxter etc and I clapped Dickov when he came back, it happens, clubs show very little loyalty to them at times so you can't really expect it back, but I believed in Johnson, believed that he was here to take us forward and improve with us, in all that one team one dream :censored:. First time in a long while I will feel really let down my someone if they leave us.

 

This is exactly how i feel, first time in many years ive felt this way about someone leaving Latics.

 

Jumped up little prick :smoking: .........feel a bit better now

Almost as gutted as when Joe Royle departed for Everton.

Behave. That is the most ridiculous thing.. And I compared Johnson to Royle. His only achievement is to stop us from relegation. Compared to what Joe achieved.

Johnson has the makings of Royle, but has a very very long way to go.

And another couple hundred off the crowd, when will this bunch of muppets realise that short term greed will send you one way and its not up.

 

....and the usual complete absence of any kind of decent PR from the club. Not a word from Corney, dancing around the subject from LJ, despite knowing full well what he was going to do.

 

The fans, as usual get the big two fingers.

Could say the same about Johnson with 8 defeats in 13.

We aren't going backwards under LJ though Even if we were to finish top 12 it would be progress. Shez had more money, a deeper squad, with more overall quality. Where we are under LJ is somewhat of an achievement, how badly we fell under Shez was inexcusable. And I was a late, late boarder of the Shez out float that had been going around since Doggygate

OK, but even so , Joe hardly betrayed us, he stuck with us through thin and thick. He still achieved so much for us. Johnson jumped ship first opportunity.

I am saying a "sense of betrayal" as a personal feeling.

The same won't necessarily apply to everyone else.

We all have our opinions.

We don't know what happened... Have you ever left a job for a pay rise? I would every time. LJ isn't a Latics fan, he is a guy doing a job to further his career and personal opportunities.

I most certainly have, but also have not moved for more money as the job wasn't right.

But this was a reply to a sense of betrayal by LJ to on par with Joe Royle.

Leaving for a pay rise is quite in order for the typical working man. We have all done it.

Jumping ship at 33 year old with possibly a further 30 year managerial career to move to effing Barnsley might turn out to be professional suicide!

If he had left to go to a Championship Club or even Preston, Sheff Utd etc I think most of us would have understood and wished him all the best!

Even Coventry and Peterborough have some potential BUT Barnsley EFFING Barnsley What a stupid choice!

This. I agree. They are bigger than us, no doubting that, but it is pretty much a sideways and up a bit move.
