Inspector Lestrade Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Monk has much to do to convince the fans that he is the right person to take the club forward. The club has managed to ship out a number of players and brought one or two in (He really needs at least another four). He now has the support of his preferred backroom staff which must have freed up so much of his time. The expectation to see progress in the first few games will be at the foremost of the fans minds as we need to overcome that points deduction quickly and efficiently. If he doesn't get over that hurdle quickly, I think the calls for him to go will be deafening and come Christmas he will be looking for another job. I do accept that Monk landed in a minefield and plenty of managers would have not relished the challenge. He seems to have a strong personality and hopefully he has a plan mapped out where he wants the club to be and that all the staff are onside with it. He really needs more quality players brought in quickly, if he doesn't and its just Windass as I fear, we won't be strong enough to meet the challenge and we will be fighting to stay in the Championship. The points deduction will putting off plenty of targets and it wouldn't surprise me if that wasn't in Lekos agents mindset We would all like to know what went wrong around Christmas but its a combination of many things and we will probably never know the true reasons. As fans maybe the best thing is to concentrate on the coming season as we cannot do anything about last season. I for one will be supporting Monk, but I can understand why some are so against him. As ever with Wednesday its gonna be one hell of a ride. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think it will bring with it? I think personally we will start to see exciting attacking football again with wing backs, crosses, counter attacks, and plenty of goals. I think it's a really exciting time and the points deduction no longer worries me (after the initial shock/horror set in I can now see moves from the club to really go for it) I think we'll do well under this new regime and I think the new coaching staff will really motivate this new group to do well. I also think we will finally really start to see a happier and more successful Garry Monk who has been backed by the chairman and who is going to do much better now he can get the tired old faces out of the club and some fresh positive attitudes coming in to challenge the players who are remaining. It's clear Garry Monk wants to create a team we can be proud of, who work their butts off to represent us in the Sheffield Wednesday shirt and he's promised us that he will create a real team to take pride in. I'm looking forward to it The Garry Monk era is finally beginning and it's already looking very exciting indeed Please, no more of that 'to me, to you' rubbish, keeping the ball for 5 min's while the opposition get into defensive positions. Start defending from the front, putting THEIR defenders under pressure as soon as we lose the ball. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davetherivelinowl Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Blimey this thread is hard work and all getting a bit personal. To reflect on the theme as intended.... I really came to doubt Monk in the second half of last season - it seemed he was making us worse than we should have been. BUT he now has his own team (who have a MUCH better pedigree than Bullen and Weaver) and a chance to sign the sort of players he wants that will fit in with his 'vision'. In this new season he'll have his excuses taken away and we'll see whether Monk really can walk the walk as well as talk the talk. Except we look like starting the season with Rhodes and possibly Windass as our only strikers. If we fail under these circumstances it's not going to tell us anything at all. Please, please can our recruitment team give us a squad that will give this new management team at least a chance of succeeding. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big expectant eyes, eye-lashes swaying in the early summer breeze, boarding the truck with the rest of your mates, wandering what adventures await you. Stepping off the truck, seeing the shiny new factory, thinking it must be one of those visit's that they make you do when you get a free tour of an Island (usually a place selling blankets or Aloe Vera). Stepping onto the moving walkway, ah, it must be an airport, Damn it I've not brought my passport, them remembering your a cow and you don't have a passport. You then hear the noises of the killing floor, but assume it is just the engine on the plane. You shout to your mate Colin to ask what the planes like, but all you hear is an horrible high pitched shrill, then the smell hits you, Eurgh, plane food smells vile, a bet Heston Blumenthal been let loose again.
