I never rated Lee as a player but I am beginning to wonder if he might just have something about him that could make him a half decent manager. As I understand it, LJ was always more interested in being a manager, his time as a player was more about learning and preparing for management rather than being a great player. Maybe it will turn out that we were lucky that he served that playing apprenticeship with us! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's not forget no Smith and Pack has steeped up Yeah I agree, but players will have their favoured positions and systems to suit their game. Reid is never a Korey type player, it's just not his game. SC was his own downfall - the players only did what they were told. Packs inprovement has come since we have had a back 4. As a result he can play his more natural game which is midfield and not having to always be going backwards to cover. Your point seems right re Joe Bryan. Seems LJ has looked at his game and slotted him in where he can make the most of his talents. Good management, long may it continue 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samo II Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Fantastic result, and on the eve of a two week break it is pretty much the best 'full stop' we could have expected on what I suppose could be seen as LJ's honeymoon period. Plenty were attributing the early results to his simply using Pembo's changed team, but after last week's half-time tweaks, and the perfomace today (saw about 45 mins between the 40th and 90th min), there can be no question he is looking for them to build on what he found and play a certain way. Onwards and upwards now, and good to hear LJ speaking of impressing not just other players but the team we have now, in order to see if they want to jump on for the longer term; all the new additions look to add something, and if we got several on board we'd certainly be a different proposition next year. Looking to be at Hull next time out; have the possibility of some freebie tickets, but as they might be with Hull fans, think I'll be turning them down to get in the away end, as with the respective form of our sides, I might get in bother celebrating near them! Great, great day. COYR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we have already seen how quickly things can turn around. I'm confident, but at the moment we are only two bad results away from another OTIB meltdown! We've picked up quite a few points since then, but so have some others around us (other than Bolton and Charlton who are increasingly adrift), and some of those above us have struggled more, pulling a few of them into the position where they could get into trouble. We're only 5 points away from the top half of the table (plus some goal difference), which just shows how many could be involved depending on good or bad runs in to the final few games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
