Green Calx Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Some people in our fan base really need to give their heads a massive shake. I'm not Monk's biggest fan but everyone needs to get behind the team, manager, owner, tea lady, whoever, this season. Its us against the world this season. Monk cost us the game... What a muppet 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitcat Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 If it's any consolation I won £30 from £2 betting on a draw in injury time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elderly Owl Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 1 hour ago, Mr Farrell said: We are doomed because of the fans who will back him until it's too late. They'll then say they wanted him gone all along. Disgusting. What’s disgusting is the scramble to stick the knife in to the Manager and any player in a team you are supposed to support!! 4 players injured and even then it took until the 96th minute with only ten on the pitch for them to equalise. That’s Garry Monk’s fault is it? Rubbish! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then Iorfa got injured in the buildup; Shaw went off injured after a minute; Palmer went off injured at halftime; and Lees went off injured and left us down to ten men and with a back three of Odubajo, Paterson and van Aken. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Apolon Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 I think it's a tad early to be rolling out the PPG as an indication we are doomed as some are 1.25 now but minutes from 1.75 per game there is a massive disparity in points at the end of the season using these 2 figures as there always will be using an average figure with so few games being played so far 10 games will give us more of an indication on where we are and whether we are "doomed" which I personally don't buy into 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted Monk gone at end of last season. I have 0% confidence in him though give him some time this season. The Rotherham, Luton and Wycombe matches are his last chance for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today’s performance was just a very dull draw that seems to have become an acceptable performance just because we have set our bar so low. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You avoided the question I asked What years did McCsrthy have 'success' with Sunderland and Wolves? The facts that I have stated are that he is unemployed (fact), nobody wants him (hence first point fact). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He picks another player that is on the pitch to do it........Its not as though Monk runs outta options week after week, Monk will be saying to whoever was marking him .."You should have kept tighter"...We are saying to Monk you should have gone for the second goal..The timidity we showed at times last year after dominating games, bit us on the backside time after time...happened again today..We can't afford that this season...I'm not saying its an easy job...but We simply can't sit back and ay "Oh well ...sh *t happens"..Cos thats not what Monk will be saying to the players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must be in training with him each day then Having him sit in would be pointless as we needed a runner who could close down, hence Joey He’s a young lad with a handful of professional appearances, playing in a tough physical match today. Don’t forget he’s still getting up to speed Throwing on Joey didn’t cost us 3 bloody pts FFS, next At his age I could go cross country 20+miles a day in combat boots carrying 60/80 kg and go again the next day. Even at 40 I was doing 80 mins rugby on a Saturday, two hour long five a side sessions plus training and a 44+ hour working week and we had lads fitter than me. I just think a fully professional athlete should be fit enough to play a couple of games a week. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akbuk Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Not seen the game, can't comment, but Radio 5 said we'd got the game sewn up with just a few seconds left to play, so just WTF happened after that? Lees got injured thats what and so did Shaw and Palmer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottom line is Van Aken wins that header or Luongo scuffs his shot and it’s game over. Was far from a vintage performance but it would have been a vital three points that would no doubt have still disappointed some on here - not aimed at you.

Definately it is harsh, but given the situation we are in..It has to be We are f.ooked otherwise. Simply the way it is..... We can give reason after reason, excuse after excuse....Are we harsh...spot on we are, but what alternative do we have...? Must do better Must do better Must do better...

brando Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 32 minutes ago, TheOwlsofDodworth said: Absolutely not. We were getting into a groove, like you said earlier, Bannan finding players in space and creating opportunities. Seeing him come on was frustrating. He doesn't seem to get near the opposition, so not only was it a crackers swap, but he can't even do the job he's trying to do. Monks subs,since he came here overall have been strange...

edwinowl Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Just 10 League games that should be enough to draw conclusions. I reckon we’ll be well short of where we need to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
