Ian_D Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 I've been a fan this season, not a supporter. Its the first time since 1969 that I haven't been to even one game in a season. "Fair weather supporter" some may say, well so be it, sticks and stones etc. Suffered watching the carp of the 70's home and away. Totally fed up with how the club is being run, so not rushing back. I'll watch them when they're on TV, I'll listen to match commentary, I'll check for news on here, that's it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdan2003 Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 (edited) I don’t have any confidence that our players have the motivation to go out and win a game football in the face adversity. And I’m not convinced Monk knows how to motivate them. Edited July 9, 2020 by bigdan2003 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't bring myself to support Corbyn. I didn't say anything about seeing good in anyone, but I can't bring myself to support Monk either. I'm not sure if I find this just hilarious or it makes me want to vomit. That flat cap though. Edited July 9, 2020 by HIGHERSTATE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Farrell Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Worst Chairman, and 2nd worst Manager in our history. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteOwl91 Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 (edited) Its too easy to say 'the senior/troublemaking players are gone and its done'. Yes, that's true, but Monk has made the decision to not play them for months and our results following this have been utterly appalling. They may now be gone, but he is accountable for making the decision to get rid of them and oversee the downturn in results. So are we in a better position than we would be had he managed them differently? It's hard to see how we could be in a worse position to be honest. Therefore, unless he's just following orders from above, HIS decisions have resulted in WORSE results on the pitch. Ones that with a points deduction will relegate us. I said at the time, its fine wanting rid of big earners or any so called problem players, but don't relegate us as a result of it. He even covered in an interview around Jan/Feb time saying is now the right time to do this and people may argue its not....well i think its clear it wasnt. I've been fully on board for an end of season clear out and its obvious we need a change of direction, but the summer was the time, not blooming January Edited July 9, 2020 by WhiteOwl91 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club would be stuffed whether he was still here or not . Would we be a bout higher up the league ? Maybe . Would we be heading deeper into trouble medium to long term ? Most Certainly.

Millhouses Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Monk agreed a 12 month extension for Pelupessy, that tells me everything I need to know about him - get rid. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james o connor Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 23 hours ago, WorrallOwl17 said: correct, chansiri is to blame for a lot of this mess, but we do actually have a half decent squad that should be performing way better than this shower are churning out. Iorfa, Murphy, Reach, Harris, Bannan, Luongo, Wickham, Borner, Lee, Palmer, Wildsmith/Dawson. That squad of players should be considerably higher in the league than what it is now They are not half decent . Iorfa is okay but not as good as some think . Murphy isn’t bad , reach is garbage , Harris is mediocre , bannan needs a fresh challenge somewhere else , luongo is always injured, Same with wickham. Borner is okay , lee is miles past his best and yeah Palmer is a decent championship full back. Even the okay ones lack any guts and there isn’t a goal scorer between them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
