But that's just my opinion. As usual there is no explanation why Monk has been chosen, yet. What has DC seen in him? Why wait 7 weeks? That Presser was flat and as dull as dishwater. DC looked like a bulldog chewing a wasp and Monk not far off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike when you sack a manager having one just get up and leave puts you on the back foot.. maybe he wanted to see if Bullen could deliver .. in fairness Bullen deserved a chance but failed. And to be fair Bullen had given us food for thought up untill the last 2 games. He’s appointed within the first week of an international break with the club nicely positioned - all seems about right to me.. especially as the the fan base was getting restless. He clearly had his eye on 2 managers who didn’t want to come .. So Monk v Cowley .. Monk the clear standout by a mile! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were abysmal. Who are the clubs with lower calibre you speak of? I guess we'll see if the players are as good as they seem to think they are. Personally think we are mid table at best. As for who i'd want then I'd have been happier with the lads at the giants Lincoln Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speed of it suggests cowely was interested and basically turned it down (for whatever reason, we can only speculate, but i think its over some sort of control). Dc knew he needed to appoint someone and monk was probably the best he could get. Im not overly pleased, but ill see how it goes. I wanted revolution, this seems to carry on a trend from before bruce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Explain? Cowley would of been another experiment the same as Jos and Carlos who were our revolutions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The approach that resulted in the mess we currently find ourselves in. Bruce was the change from that. Cowely would have changed the club as a whole. Put down some solid club foundations. I could be wrong, time and history will tell. This just smacks as just chuck some mud and hope it sticks. But what do I know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
