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. Bump this end of the season What ever you are drinking, I will have a pint please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might have posted the same response to the OP. Now, if we win our first four or five I might be thinking something's on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No you won't You (just like everyone else who is anti-monk) will then start saying "Let's not get excited yet - let's judge him at Christmas" Then it will be "Lets see where we are at the end of the season" 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernOwl Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 I still think finishing 4th bottom will be a huge success for Monk this season. Making ludicrous predictions of promotion only set him up to fail. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Without looking and only joking what would maybe be needed to sneak sixth place??. Didn't crystal palace manage to overturn a 24 points adrift of a playoff place at Christmas to snach a payoff spot and gain promotion a few years back.?? I was thinking the other day would it suit us better with the deduction if everyone was beating everyone every week, meaning it stays tight, so would be easier to climb the table. Or do we prefer 3/4 absolutely awful teams that can't win a match to make then easier to overhaul and pass to safety.

TodwickOwl Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 2 hours ago, McRightSide said: 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. Monk probably doesn’t suck off his team that’s why Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 I have alot of respect for wilder despite him being a massive pig Worked in the lower leagues and worked his way up to be a top top manager Dare I say even the best British manager in football Not like lampard whose just been handed a top job because of who he is 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be upstanding in court. The judge has arrived! I don’t consider myself to be anti Monk. I simply felt he was lucky to keep his job and I did point out the mitigating circumstances on more than one occasion. ie working without his own staff, trouble makers behind the scenes. If we get off to a good start I will be delighted for him as will the overwhelming majority of supporters. I definitely wouldn’t be predicting promotion though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because they didn’t see eye to eye on recruitment. But it was seen as a shock and certainly not because he had failed there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
