I've just had a look at our Home results for that season and we dint win for 11 games from Dec 74 through to Sep 75 ( 2nd home game of the 75/76 season) . We have now gone 9 games without winning at Home , Charlton in February, so 2 more winless games and we equal that run. Unless anyone knows any better I'd say this is as bad as it's been in my living memory , I'm 56 btw ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An amazing statistic shows his tactics/management isn't working at Hillsborough. Edited October 22, 2020 by full fathom five 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don’t improve this record quickly, we’re down. Simple as that. Interesting that one one or two poor stats when Monk was supposedly conquering all before him are starting to emerge? We're still bedding in a whole new coaching staff, a brand new squad etc? 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a wins a win and all that but if hadn't been for Fletchers late, late goal against Charlton we would have been adding another 7 games onto that winless home run. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watto Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Yes 1 win in the last 15 at Hillsborough ! I reckon this has got to be the poorest form we've ever had at Home in living memory 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athelwulf Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 No manager could survive a run like that. ...Apart from at this club. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can't expect amazing football and pumping teams week in week out. Monk will just do enough and it's not gonna be pretty. We're gonna be languishing around mid to bottom table and we have to either accept that or ... well what else can we do apart from moaning about it and want change (then who knows what will happen) The football isn't the problem, the results are. The football was bob under Gray, but he delivered the points. He saved us from certain relegation, whereas under Monk we're going down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not going to argue because there is a case to say that. Personally I don’t buy into the new players excuse much because he’s still relying on a fair few that were responsible for the failures of last season? He’s talked about having players available for 40 games or more yet he brings in Brown who has a track record for being injured and lo and behold he’s missed half of our championship games already. He won’t get a full season out of Luongo. Does he bring in a decent understudy? No he re-signs Pelupessy then picks a young playmaker ahead of him first time he’s missing. He wants to play 3-5-2. Most of us know we haven’t got the players to play wing-back. Does he go out and get one or two? No. He brings in 2 more centre-backs and re-calls Van Aken. He also continually picks a keeper who is non-league standard at best. Even opposition players know our keeper is a weak link. We know he is but we all know who doesn’t? If he keeps us up he’s done a good job. No doubt about that but he doesn’t mean he’s the right man for the long term? I think the current home run tells you everything you need to know about Monk. He doesn’t have a clue on how to get on the front foot and the situation we’re currently in requires us to do this more often than not? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Monk out, for being absolutely clueless, given the midfield away in the past 2 games, absolutely nothing in the centre at all, if Luongo isn't there we have to play 3 in the middle, too stubborn, or maybe stupid, to change anything.
