Title: Bristol City Manager Lee Johnson
Post by: 3rdgenfan on March 11, 2016, 01:18:33 PM
Bristol City manager Lee Johnson and his dad Gary Johnson both come from Fulham. Gary Johnson grew up in a house in Clancarty Road opposite South Park. I know Gary Johnson was a Fulham fan but his brother Pete ( who scouts for Gary ) is a Chelsea fan
Not sure they still have any loyalty though for Fulham!!

Tony Gale in his column for the website actually said that both Johnson brothers are Fulham supporters. We've done some decent business with Gary Johnson recently, he took Dan Burn on at Yeovil and he became their first choice centre back as they won promotion via the play offs from League One, the next season Dan ended up at Birmingham adjudged to be a solid enough Championship level quality centre back. He currently has Cameron Burgess with him at Cheltenham in the National League, but before that he had Stephen Arthurworrey at Yeovil before leaving.

Whether Lee cares or not, I don't know.

I have a photo of Gary and myself  in the St Thomas's Under 14's team line up taken in Normand Park in 1968.

Cant remember the name of the boys league we played in but we had our league and cup trophies from the previous year and our new FFC kit on.
