@owlstalk Posted July 5, 2020 Author Share Posted July 5, 2020 Latest on Tom Lees The positive was that Tom's scan came back good which is good for us and him. We'll be dictated by his feeling on when he feels he can return. We're hopeful he'll be back in by some point next week and we'll see from there.

I bet pretty much every single sane person out there would side with Monk on this one Last one from me and I’m gone. What have you honestly seen that makes you think a) we’re going to stay up with this manager in charge? and b) that he’s the right man for the rebuild whatever division we’re in next season?

sonofbert2 Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 (edited) It is very clear to anyone who is prepared to calmly do a bit of research/reading what has happened at our football club. It is much easier though to just blame and berate the current manager. Edited July 5, 2020 by sonofbert2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not debating this with you mate You've said you won't back him even if he turns it around You've said you want Sheffield Wednesday relegated so we can get rid of Garry Monk So nope.

I might have said we will get relegated but have I said I want us to get relegated but then you did say yesterday that I had posted hate for Garry Monk and I hadn’t done that either?

Footballs about attaining points We've just lost another six.. and im not throwing clichés at you there. Makes no difference if that effort cannot be turned into points. There are players in this squad, on paper, easily able to compete with the best in this league. So who's at fault ? It's one of the worst dives down the league in our modern history. And...look back..I was one of the first to hope Monk had proved me wrong after the 4 points.... but what's happened again ? UTO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UTO Of course, and if the points tally doesn't pick back up at the start of next season, then the outcome is inevitable. I don't think many would dispute that. However, you've alluded to our obvious issue yourself: whilst we may have a few talented individuals (although I can only really see Iorfa and Bannan being regular starters for the best teams in this league) our squad is massively understrength and incoherent. Bruce spoke of this as a long-term project, and it's hard to see it any other way. We're having to play Liam Palmer at centre back; we don't have a single recognised left-back; all of our wingers struggle to put a decent ball into the area on a consistent basis; after all these years, we still end up turning to Nuhiu due to the lack of coherent investment in our squad... I'm really not looking at our current squad and expecting great things. However, we look organised, well-drilled and full of effort. If we can cut out the recent individual errors, it'll be a start. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vulva Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 (edited) Lees is clearly the latest member of the bomb squad. Shall we all stop pretending otherwise. Edited July 5, 2020 by vulva 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreshOwl Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 You gotta think he’s toast here. As a centre back in the modern game you’re expected to a have a bit of technical nous, and carry the ball out of defence. He can barely pass the ball sideways. Iorfa and Borner are streets ahead of him, and Palmer and even Moses are more capable on the ball 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant Tibbs Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 6 hours ago, marcx666 said: All well and good, if Monk stays, but, hes a habit of falling out with players and staff, then leaving, so, it's going to be interesting to say the least. No doubt he falls out with people, just like in all walks of life, managers are unpopular with staff, usually the most vocal ones. I’m sure Hutchinson and Westwood aren’t sharing the full story when they say they’ve no problem with Monk. However, I think Lees is no longer an asset, just a liability, and has been since just before CC left. Thanks for the good years, but we he needs to move out, ASAP.

Some posters on here just want to hear about Monk releasing COVID-19 on the world and how he has also been breeding Murder Hornets.

Agreed and thank you for the well written response. Ive always believed in this squad, we have all seen them play up to their abilities. That's why I get so bloody frustrated with them. I'll be happy to survive to start again next season. Thing is, I've seen us be in a position where we couldn't possibly go down...yet get relegated. So.. it's very worrying.

Shetland Owl Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Does he want to play for us, or has he lined up a move. If he doesn't get selected for Wednesday then I think he will be off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
