Lincowl Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Hardly the cowleys fault. They've gone from dead and buried to having a chance of staying in the championship. Should they go down again then cowleys were doing well in league one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowleys took over from a German manger who had brought his mates in. It was always going to take time. We are in danger of flitting from manager to manager for years, which costs money and identity. The Cowleys offered us an opportunity to create an identity. All the top teams have it. United have it. Leeds have it. Liverpool have it. What are we? How do we play? We are the Apple crumble of English football. Easily replicated. We will replace Monk in the next 6/12/18 months with another version of Monk. The Cowleys allegedly chose Huddersfield over us due to board level control with aspects such as transfers. They thought they were a better prospect mid-to-long-term and if we get into big issue with the EFL case they may still be right in that. However, they will have expected to be able to get Huddersfield away from relegation trouble by now when they took over, it is tight and they may still stay up but i think they haven't done as well as they expected to do. Relegation certainly won't have been part of their plan as they have seen how clubs can struggle to bounce straight back from the 3rd division.

Not buyin that one iorta..if they go down they will be sacked..had plenty er time to sort it out..like lookin on their forum they laughed at us far too much after play off debacle..cant stand em..even prefer leeds to that tinpot village outfit..fizz em..thwy will end up in league 2 and i for one cant wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of our fans say Carlos stayed too long, few cried any tears for Jos and Bullen was never going to be the man long-term so what would you have done differently? fetched Pep in & given him a blank cheque book after the play off final Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monk signed 3 players in January including a Premier League striker. How is that having your hands tied? It’s more than many other EFL teams were able to recruit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever the pessimist Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 I was one who wanted the Cowleys. Think the time to judge them will be the end of next season, at the earliest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taximark Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 '2 seasons in the top flight with all that extra cash. Now it’s pretty much a certainty that we will have 2 relegations in consecutive years. Cowleys have changed nothing at all. We can’t pass, we can’t defend, we can’t attack and we can’t score. A complete overhaul needed. poo ..... -------------------------------------------------------- "PE teacher starts the season, a different PE teacher ends it. Clueless" -------------------------------------------------------- "Apart from Hogg and Schindler I absolutely ******** hate this group of players. I ******** despise them. It's league one next season hopefully we can rebuild with league 1 and league 2 standard players. Not bothered wether Cowleys choose to stay or not they've not been that great either imo. Talk a good game but can't deliver results." ------------------------------------------------- Just a flavour 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far out of their depth that until today's games they'd averaged more points per game at Huddersfield than Monk had here. Despite Monk having a 3 point head start on them by beating them in their and Monk's first game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westfield Owl Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 (edited) What I’ve learnt this afternoon is: His (Monk’s) hands were well and truly tied = Not a January spending spree There is no middle ground. It has to be one extreme or the other. Edited June 28, 2020 by Westfield Owl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
