Their work ethic was top notch, I thought The way they celebrated, subs and all, suggested they were all still together. Surprised by this decision.

swfc1983 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Serves him right for playing pacey attacking wide men in his team and taking the game to the opponents...away from home as well no less. It was only a matter of time after using gung ho tactics like that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vulva Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Maybe we've been sounding out the same potential managers as Boro, and other clubs for that matter, and they've decided to act first and get in the front of the queue. The likelehood is that us, Boro, Swansea, Stoke, Birmingham etc are all probably after the same managers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it was striking at the time: when the penalty was awarded the subs were bouncing onto the pitch. FFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking how the Boro players played today showed that the Manager was under pressure and they stepped up and played for him. They were very good today and should have won 4-1. The decision to sack Monk was made before the game. Something could have been said between owner and Manager after the game for the decision to be made this evening.

Bluesteel Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Shows how much of a gamble a manager is, excellent at Leeds and did ok at Swansea but not at Boro. I would take him here though if he fancied a gig til the end of the season to see if he/we could fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough. I recall feel good threads on here though taking players’ unified celebrations as a barometer of morale. Even the muted one from FF’s winner against Villa was (correctly) seen as telling. To me their celebrations were notable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
