ThisCityIsOurs88 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Monk isn’t bringing any other staff and has to work with Bullen as assistant. No wonder it took so long to get somebody willing to work under these constraints. Why keep Bullen? What does he add? Clearly a nice bloke but he’s been here under so many failed regimes. Fresh ideas needed under fresh management IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kraschenbern Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 I'd argue he adds knowledge of the current squads abilities and inabilitys. Knows the youth set up, players and staff. And brings some continuity. Plenty of people have worked for the club under failed regimes, should we sack everyone at the club top to bottom? We're already short in the coaching department, and Bullen is a loyal and decent coach. No need to get rid at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

attyjake Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Quote The Monkmeister tells Bullen what to do, how he wants to train and how he wants us to play. That's his job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monk no longer has his own staff as they have other jobs, so opted to have Bullen as his assistant as he knows the players abilities etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOOTIE AND THE SHIT TU Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 I'm glad Bullen is still here, I didn't want him as manager because this job is too big for a novice, but he is a great man to have around the club, and his experience with these players will give Monk a big insight. I still expect Monk to add a couple of people to his team in the coming months, but it's good that Bullen is still here. 1 Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife.

Fresh ideas needed under fresh management IMO. Said he would work with the staff already here but also said something along the lines of looking if help needed. New managers usually find a way of bringing in a trusted assistant. Give him time to find his feet. Must say he looked a bit more chuffed to appointed than Bruce who sat in the Caribbean for a month.

newbster Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Would be wrong of us to sack bullen he hasn't done anything wrong.. If he was to leave then that will be Bullens choice so makes sense to keep him on till such a time comes Bullens decides he can't be here anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Fair enough Bullen being kept on but not as assistant manager. Monk needs to bring his own people in. Could never imagine this sort of thing happening at other clubs. Can’t be easy for Bullen going from manager to assistant. I think a lot of people put in that position would walk away with a bit of respect for themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A proper club ‘legend’ with best interests of club at heart I’ve heard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0114 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 I wish he’d brought his own assistant. We lost a manager and 2 very good coaches in the summer. Hopefully Monk gets to bring in his own, he didn’t say no to the question just that he’s looking forward to working with what we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
