Give Stern a chance urges Bristol boss

Shaun Fuentes

Bristol City boss Gary Johnson has appealed the club’s fans to give Stern John a chance. Signed from Southampton on loan until the end of the season, the 32-year-old striker has still to win over a majority of Bristol City fans. The Trinidad & Tobago international has scored only twice since arriving at Ashton Gate in October and has come in for criticism from supporters, some of whom question his commitment to the cause.

But manager Johnson believes John’s languid demeanour can be misleading and he feels Bristol City fans have been slow to recognise the former Premier League marksman’s qualities. He said: “Sometimes fans want to pick out someone to be a scapegoat and that has happened to Stern on occasions. “I think it’s down to the impression he gives off and it’s definitely unfair. “As a manager, it’s up to me to pick the best team in the best interests of the football club. I have to be single-minded and not listen to what other people are saying.” Southampton‘s leading scorer last season, John is determined to earn a City deal.

Although the former Birmingham star has struggled to hold down a regular place in Johnson’s Championship starting line-up, he has still played a significant part in Bristol City’s rise up the table. An experienced campaigner, John has consistently created chances for others and helped bring out the best in 22-year-old Nicky Maynard.

Back in the side for last weekend’s game at Derby , he also started against Coventry on Tuesday and is expected to feature in Sunday’s match with Cardiff at Ashton Gate. Johnson remains happy with the Trinidadian’s contribution. He said: “Stern is one of those players who does a lot of things which go unnoticed. “He’s played in the Premier League and in the World Cup and he gives us that little bit of quality in the final third.”

And he jogging around tired in the 2nd half. Somebody get a wheelchair for him, he old

g · « **Reply #1030 on:** April 01, 2009, 08:12:16 PM »

Games like tonight is the reason why he WILL start every game.. Other forwards don't have a clue how to play with their back to goal.

was our best forward today. 100% better hold up play and distribution than KJ, who looked really out of sorts. thought Stern played well, but missed one golden opportunity when he mistrapped Carlos' cross at the far post after a superb run by the wide man. otherwise, i doh see how anyone can fault him tonight. the team didn't have 3 sitters all game

Whats do all u haters have to say about him now???

Apparently a lot boss. Listening to CTNT and every man on the street they interview talking bad bout Stern.A man even ask for a baseball bat to beat Stern.Why is Stern hated so?

I don't know what game ppl were looking at. Stern had chances tonight because he worked for them.Running off the ball, and making passes.

Filho, i dont know what game you watched. Stern did nothing all match long.

Stern was not bad tonight. By the way how all yuh could tell which forward was Stern, all ah dem ah carbon copies of each other. NONE can create or cause havoc with the ball at his feet.

true that.Maybe is because Stern has done so much for us, we hold to a higher standard.

It's part of our culture to waste down heroes

I am not surprised... If he was really the downfault of the team i would understand the verbal attacks...

But being singled out when we could easily pick 5 or 6 other players who really made a mess of it tonight it's very clear.

It's quite clear that he was our best foward and deserves a starting role in this team.

imagine men berating Stern in front KJ.

KJ to me now is just like pre-2005 Dwight Yorke in a national shirt.

We need to move on from thinking premiership ballers are the best thing in a national shirt at CONCACAF level.

Imagine Carlos sweating more for the reserves and playing a class above KJ in national colours.

Dwight Yorke scored a hattrick vs Arsenal on sunday and didnt make a note on Wed WCQ vs Jamaica.

Go figure.

Stern fought hard tonight, mistrapped, but played good link up, and created a decent half chance in the first half.

Yeah he played very well....held up the ball, showed good composure on the ball and brought players into the attack very well....

Only once his touch let him down when he was in the clear for a scoring chance in the second half... Other than that a very good showing.

KJ on the other hand was piss poor... really really awful.
