At the press conference when he was appointed he only said Monk was the right appointment for now, so if he is sticking with him I’m sure it would help the manager with existing players, and new ones, to come out and give him renewed backing. Why would any chairman do that for any manager? Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’d be better off bringing in a couple back room staff for him. Sends a clear messages he’s the man and we are getting behind him. Would like to see him and Clotet work together again but I’m not sure that will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the Wednesday Chairman at the time speaking in the press to back Ron Atkinson when we were relegated. Then again he genuinely believed in Atkinson. DC doesn’t genuinely believe in Monk IMO, so I doubt he will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSandersonOWL Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Has Monk gone yet? I keep hoping so. With Wednesday you have to have lots of hope. I've been regularly disappointed since we sold our golden boy Albert Quixall to Manchester United ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CF_Owl Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 When is Monk's contract up? Wasn't it until the end of the season? I've not heard anything about an extension yet unless I've missed it. Feels like that should be sorted either way before players start coming in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't that mean it's been extended for another year as the season has ended, unless it's up to the playoff final date...find it strange that nothing has been announced.

No it means that if he gets the sack we only have to pay him a years wages...unlike sacking a manager on a five year contract and having to pay him four and a half years of his contract...it's a no brainer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A fixed one-year contact would have meant that next week he could have been rightly given the boot with only one month's pay wasted, enough to tide him over... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure managers would be falling over themselves to go to a club where they can be removed without compensation after just a few months. The rolling contract makes sense as there is some security for both parties. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not against Monk I just have no reason to believe he is capable of moving us forward. Literally none. we were well above our punching weight when in 3rd. we fell away through the injury of our one capable forward. i think this, you think not, but it's what dc thinks that matters 100% 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
