    You are entitled to your opinion, but I am struggling with the facts you are on about. Cowley has a League 1 and Championship win rate of 32.5% compared to Johnsons League 1 and the Championship win rate of 37.7%.

    Edit: Johnsons win rate is 37.7%

    But the manager doesn't count towards the salary cap.

    Perhaps even more so than optimism ...

    I have watched it and completely agree that he was referring to the new management group.

    Personally I would rather have Johnson than Cowley. Plus he is 3 years younger than Cowley, so is more of an up and coming coach (@Wardley Makem )

    Im not the one thats negative as feck mate.
    Crying over our new manager is probably 1 of many other things youve cried about today, you just seem that way inclined which tells me you have a sad life.
    Did mammy cook your tea warm enough tonight, or did she do you the wrong dish??
    Lifes just one big massive negative to you i bet.

    I don't believe it does no. Either way we aren't broke so I don't know why you keep saying it, not being able to spend isn't the same as being skint. Not that we won't be able to spend, under 21s don't count towards it either.

    Isn't Johnson supposed to be the attack minded one out of the two?

    How do you think we will not be broke when we were just about breaking even last year and then 14,000 season card holders cancel because of Covid and no walk through the gate income either.. Of course we will be broke.

    Only playing staff over 21 are included in salary cap.

    There’s no Financial Fair Play in League One (but if we were way over the deficit would count as one of the rolling years in the Championship, where it does..)

    Think Johnson is a very good punt.

    Can't judge you on that mate I'm the same, I always say I know very little outside of safc.

    Pearson or Gus were my first choices but think you're correct about them not fitting into the structure we're trying to set up. While I was a bit bland over Johnson at first there's one thing about him that just stuck in my head. He's been a league manager for seven years over three different clubs and got sacked once, and that was Bristol City when they were about 10th. Regardless of anything else, I find that quite an impressive record.

    I did.
    I was surprised at how negative the interviewer was regards to the club's set-up these last few seasons.

    Definitely talking about the new owners.
    Kept refering to the ownership group. Never heard that before
    Also talking about them having significant finance available
    But in general just the fact he's here talking about a new progressive structure for the club speaks volumes
    Worry not this has nowt to do with SD mate

    Yeah, that was another indication the takeover is done in all but announcing.
