Press conference called for 4pm

[vulva]

Getting tempted by Cowley and ending up with Monk is like buying a fit bird drinks all night only to go home with her fat mate who’s tuppence stinks of Weetabix. 

[Tea Baggins]

I seriously don't know what people want.

 

Monk has a solid record which is impressive.

 

Plays a good brand of football which suits our players.

 

What's not to like?

Attractive football

Prickly

Hard to keep happy

 

Sounds like my missus ( apart from the football bit )

What happened?

 

er... some chaps bought some plane tickets

Do we think this investigation into the ground sale stopped the push for Cowley? The odds seemed to flip flop after this. Maybe Monk was a back up option (seen at the QPR match?) and maybe this stopped the Cowley move? Was the Cowley speculation just made up stuff? Was it Monk all along? What's his systems btw?

Didn't realise my tv would attract so much attention. Should have cropped the picture.

Have Ferrari bought us ?

are you oblivious to the lack of longevity of appointments and allegations ?

[jonnyowl]

I supposed im a bit non plussed about this after the speculation with Cowley.

 

I'm not excited but im not thinking its a terrible appointment either.

 

Safe appointment as would have Rowett.

 

I'm glad its not Pulis.

 

Don't think he'll get as much time as Cowley would have got with the fans.

 

I still want playoffs this year and will be disappointed if we don't get them, but unless its a disaster i wont be calling for the manager, he gets two seasons for me!

I think you mean the 11th then.

[striker]

At least we have a manager. Must interview well, but can't say he would have been in my top 5. 

 

Trying to put a positive spin on it:

 

1. Ex Wednesday player

2. Not Tony Pulis

 

 

[Burnsie]

BBC reporting it as breaking news now.

That's just it though isin't it? He's just an 'ok' appointment. I do like the football he plays though and he did incredibly well at Brum.

[basegreenowl]

No bout DC will say he's been first choice all along. Maybe this legal stuff he's been involved with (Monk) has slowed it down. But that won't get a mention.

I love Weetabix

[Hitcat]

Cue the Monk-ey spunk jokes...

[camffiti]

I haven't read all of this fred, but

 

Page one = 'Please not Monk' ... Skipped to page 18 and it's 'Gi Monk a chance FFS'

 

So I'm guessing it IS going to be Monk 

 

Kinda smells of the Van Aken transfer tbh
