That's just people trying to channel the spirit of Wilder.

 

As if cringy nicknames were somehow part of his magic formula.

 

Need to be more creative though - Gidzy will be hard to top.

They’re already calling the new keeper Rambo.

Wilder is a freaking amazing man manager who's never been sacked from a managerial role.

 

Monk hasn't yet managed to hold down one managerial post for 18-months.

 

Would be great if he can emulate Wilder, but he's got a fair way to go before he even gets close.

To be fair to Monk he chose to leave Leeds and Birmingham.

I'm allowing the giddiness, not only did we win which no one predicted but that was one of the most comfortable wins I've seen in a long, long time 

 

They were also comfortably beaten by Northampton Town last week too.

 

Cardiff are bang average.

 

Just saying like.

He was sacked at Birmingham.

The glass half full team accuse the glass half empty team of being too negative after a defeat whilst the glass half empty team accuse the glass half full team of being too positive after a victory.

Monk's going to take it one better and get us promoted this season albeit starting on a deficit, but he has the system, he's adapting the players and he's instilling that self-belief. 

That would take a miracle of biblical proportion !! Average for second place is mid 80's plus the 12 points would be touching 100 points....2.2 points per I know teams have broke and come close to the 100 points mark and would love us to do it but far too much optimism after 1 win.

> Topic: Monk emulating Wilder's success

 

> Point made that Wilder has never been sacked (testament to his success) 

 

> Fact pointed out that Monk doesn't hold that same accolade.

I only ever drink directly from the tap like a scrubber and just work on the assumption that there'll always be more - and I'm never wrong.

Wilder got United into the premier league with let's be honest a run-of-the-mill squad but what he had instead was a system these players adapted flawlessly and instilled a massive self-belief.

Bump this end of the season 

 

You need to die on this hill. Bump this thread after every point gained. In fact, fuck it, bump it after every completed pass.

 

I have faith in you.

I wish.

Reminds me of Leeds starting on -15 after being relegated to League 1 and finishing on something like 66 points in the playoffs. Would have gone up automatically without the points deduction

Why do we do this after a win....every time

 

To be fair, in our defence, we don't do it very often then.

I'm a big fan of Monk

 

But I'm an even bigger fan of whatever it is you've been drinking

Relevance is subjective....like u say to other posters....."if u don't like a thread or disagree.....then move on".

I dont think that's fair. The original poster drew the comparison, I think its perfectly acceptable to point out the differences.

A touch negative maybe, but certainly not irrelevant.

I'm a huge fan of longevity and I really hope we give Monk a good run, but hysterical reactions after each result are totally pointless and arguably counterproductive.
