At the end of his post-match interview, in response to mention of Tuesday's match against Farnborough, the Gaffer said: "There's gonna be a lot of hard talking, of course, at all levels, and we'll see how it all turns out."

An unusual response to that particular question, in my opinion. Will he walk away before Tuesday or be fired?

I know I've wondered that before but I reckon he knows he's on borrowed time.

It’s indicative that the board are at least discussing performance issues, they clearly are very loyal to Gary but ultimately the line has already been crossed and we’re in the red zone and I’m sure they have their own limits, even if they are much wider than our own

I’ve never liked the title of Gaffer, reminds of Bill Maynard in the comedy series. When interviewing him, we shouldn’t be pandering to his ego and referring to him by that title!

Just a personal opinion, mini rant over!

He said the same thing after the St Albans game - in fact he says the same thing after every game.

OK but did he go and clap the Yellow Army after the match ??

Tbf Downsey came over clapping the fans tonight, received a load of abuse and shouting at him asking why he was clapping by a select few (including one the the Torquay talk lads)
Damned if they do, damned if they don’t

Last nights nonsense from Johnson after 0-0 with Farnborough..’we can’t have a party and get excited at this moment in time because we need to play catch up’

He really needs to put his brain in gear.
The party is over old son
29 points behind Yeovil
15 defeats in 33 games
7 points outside play offs
14 points off bottom 4

Certainly no time for a party, but yellow card protest everybody is invited on Saturday
