WalthamOwl Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Only hope I have now is that fans aren’t allowed in grounds next season so I don’t have to see that waste of space in a Wednesday shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowl Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Can't think of a better way for the club to let the fans know about the dire financial situation we face. So at least it can't be said anymore that they don't communicate with us... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miffed Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 What did DC say about being in trouble if we don’t go up this season? I think our fans deserve to know the truth now. We are paying top prices.... What are the short and long term targets and what is the model for achieving them? What’s the plan DC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wilyfox Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 If re-signing players that have shown they're sub-standard shyte is the way we're going, DC can shove next season up his arsehole. I hope the EFL crucify him for the way he's run our club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the third man Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 all games behind closed doors next season and I can get my season ticket money back it was too expensive to watch the rubbish we are going to be served up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcmigo Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 A surreal decision, he had maybe half 2 decent games last season and was hopeless after Christmas. Hunt looks 10 times the player that Joey is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scilly owl Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 I think that he’ll come back and be like a cross between Zidane and Roy Keane and go on to captain Holland to a World Cup victory and be named player of the tournament. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 (edited) Totally expecting the vast majority of OOC players to get new offers. Suggests to me that Monk’s not his own man as much he’d like to make us think he is? This is Lukuhay all over again and you’ll still get some disagreeing with this opinion. I mean if it wasn’t for his blonde/greyish hair, English accent and lack of a tash, you’d be forgiven for thinking Jos was still here because nothing much has changed in truth, has it?

0114 Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Only answer to this is financially we are worse off than anyone actually will realise until it gets serious. Possibly a third summer in an embargo and a points deduction. Heads need to come out the sand with Chansiri. No way Garry Monk wanted to keep a player he started 8 times this season.

gurujuan Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 I am not as up in arms about this as some, mainly because I’ve thought we were heading in this direction for a while now The whole set up is geared towards League One, and I think Joey will be alright at that level As I said, I even think we may get something out of Jordan Rhodes at that level also All this talk of a big clear out, and subsequent recruitment drive, always seemed a bit pie in the sky at Championship level. In League One, it will be much easier to complete that sort of overhaul. However, we won’t be replacing the likes of Fletcher and Forestieri with better, just cheaper that’s all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeonLeon Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 He’s that poor I don’t buy the argument that finances should dictate that we have to keep him. For me, even if he’s playing for free his influence, or lack of influence, has a negative impact on the team. just because money is tight doesn’t mean you should waste even more on players that clearly aren’t up to the job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 (edited) This club gets from embarrassment to embarrassment. What an awful decision. Big clear out my arse, you just know the majority of these wasters will end up staying. Edited June 3, 2020 by WalthamOwl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markowski77 Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 So much for the clearout......think this is the first indication of where we are heading. Monk also needs to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just occured to me though, what happens to Ozzie if there are no fans at games? Will the RSPCA get a 6ft bird left outside their door one night....or will he get a game up front (given our impending lack of options) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkstar Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 (edited) 15 minutes ago, 0114 said: Monk directly said after the Wigan defeat that... “I have seen enough in the past month to tell me a lot. There are some players who shouldn’t be here at this club. That’s the honest truth.” Pelupessy was abysmal in that match. Hence why Monk has started him 8 times this season. I said he’s a good lad, doesn’t mean we should be keeping someone whose literally only being played when we have no other options. Poor from the club. I still read that as referring more to attitude and mentality rather than ability. Trust me, I completely agree with you that hes nowhere near good enough at Championship level and I'm sure Monk knows this too. Assuming that's the case our resigning of him suggests Monk sees him as one of two things. Either hes a cheap championship backup player with a good injury record and a decent attitude who is happy to fill that role, or a regular starter at league 1 level. I guess we'll find out which in due course but either way, this is the almost inevitable consequence if you gamble on reaching the EPL and lose.
