WalthamOwl Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Would DC really go for Monk, someone that has a bit of a history or falling out with his chairman etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobness Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 But wait! In this presser at around the 8:20 mark, he says "if it was up to me, I'd just tell you how it is. But I obviously have to tow the party line" What could this mean? I reckon it's on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 1banana2banana Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Get Cowley’s in and add 5k to the home gate. Bring the good feeling back and have a right good go.... or do nothing and just run the club down (which is how it feels at the minute). Bruce leaving us really could be the tipping point to another miserable decade if we don’t act soon. The last time we were on a high was the playoff final under Carlos. Despite how his reign ended I’d certainly do anything for that back at the minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
109Waddle Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 (edited) What I don’t get about DC is , he’s obviously invested many millions of pounds in the club, yet he doesn’t seem to act with the same pace as most other football clubs. It appears from the outside (with no comms from the club to suggest otherwise) that nothing is happening and we’re just drifting along. Why invest millions of pounds and not seem to want to get the best out of your investment? Edited September 5, 2019 by 109Waddle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's not, and we are simply carrying on as before then we should be worrying. I don’t think you are far from the truth! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, he's invested many millions and therefore wants to be sure he's making the best decision he can, rather than a knee-jerk reaction to the current situation. Obviously that's clouded a little by the Jos appointment, but hey 4th time's a charm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Snooty Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Not a fan of Monk, his beady eyes, his agent stuff (*allegedly) but most of all he just puts me about because he looks like someone has put Shaun from 'This is England' through a medieval stretching rack. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlos had 2 playoffs and Bruce was decent, he just turned out to be a traitorous, turnip-faced ladybits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All quite vague. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Box_Man Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 That’s a long winded way of saying nothing at all if you ask me. I think we are probably talking currently regards compensation, player budgets, backroom staff negotiating etc etc Otherwise all he has to do is say nothing in the link to the Owls...committed to Lincoln will not be moving to Sheffield Wednesday, that would put an end to it all.

But the season is up and running and we look to be rapidly falling away from the top 6 rather than setting the foundations for a promotion push.
