I thought this was a discussion forum, not a popularity contest? I'm sorry you don't agree with my views, but that's kind of the point of a forum for discussion and debate? No need to take offence and turn a tad bitter. Out of interest, who is this "stand out" player that you speak of who couldn't wait to leave?

Jeffjohnsonmyhero Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 We are hearing on the Radio Sheffield how Monk has been lumbered with a past aging squad ,Well why has he got to have Bullen as his assistant .Surely if he has been given the responsibility of re building a younger more dynamic squad ,With a sell on value ,Surely he should be able to bring his own Assistant manager in .

Any time other clubs and agents know how desperate you are for bodies, you're making your life harder. If we'd held on to Borukov, Preston, Lee and Kirby, it'd be a signal that we're confident in our young players and think they're ready fro the first team. That way it looks like we're less in need and can't be milked as hard when going for new players. Whether we're going to use those young players or not doesn't actually matter, it's about appearances and what that does for us in the market. We've emptied the squad to less than the bare bones. That leaves us looking desperate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just look at how we performed with and without him. And you’re right, it’s not a popularity contest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The so called obvious logic of your post doesnt need avoiding.....it was proved wrong in 2004 when we brought in at least 12 free transfers at the start of the season......and that didnt end too badly did it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
