Miffed Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Dont really see how anyone can have a problem with this. Whats the alternative... no one doing anything? As long as it doesnt become political or devisive then fair play to them for trying to get the club to engage with its supporters. Maybe this is exactly what is needed, especially if the club have taken their eye off the ball with everything else thats gone off at the club (the SAG saga, changes in management, the EFL hearing etc...) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The late great Jack Charlton is a good example of a proper manager, as was Harry Catterick, Howard Wilkinson, Ron Atkinson and more recently Steve Bruce, even our beloved Carlos. Nothing to do with time. Good examples of improper managers are the destructive Trevor Francis and the ridiculously bad Monk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What makes Charlton,Catterick,Wilkinson,Atkinson,Bruce,Carlos "proper" managers though,thats the question,not just because they were at swfc,and who and when was it decided "they" were proper managers ?

Nothing to do with whether they have been at Wednesday or not, Wilder, for example. Who decided that they are <proper> ? Wednesday's fans and even the players. When was it decided that they are <proper> ? Between their appointment and when they leave. Another question increasingly being asked is whether we have a proper owner? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of proper.. can you use either parenthesis or italics to highlight the words you'd like to quote or give emphasis to? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The singular use of "parentheses" is normal in modern English usage.. See Fowler's. Properly described they are not <long pointed arrows> and they are not replacing <parentheses> but are a form of quotation marks that has existed since early 16th century printing. May be called <guillemets>. No longer in common use in England but I am very old-fashioned. In proper English the plural of <parenthesis> is <parentheses> as you will find in the authoritative Oxford Dictionary!! This is all very <Owlstalkish> going off in random directions. The original question was <Is Monk a proper manager?> And what does<proper manager> mean? There is hope yet that he is, after yesterday, but after Wednesday on Tuesday who knows? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
