Something is wrong with the way DC is doing things. Surely? 
 

Bruce walks out after 6 months.

 

Monk kept alluding to issues behind the scenes and ‘certain situations’. 
 

Pulis lasted 10 bloody games.

 

Why is the Sheffield Wednesday job a seemingly impossible one for any manager? 

We've just signed a winger without a manager. Let's hope the next coach plays wingers, or he'll be playing at wing back, or left back... in the dressing room.

 

lol

 

It's clear, we're never going to sign a Manager. There is less heart ache to accept it's not going to change under the current regime.

Ok so what about the comments of Monk, Cowley, Pulis just all bitter managers? Bruce walking out after 6 months?

 

What about the advisory board of Pearson, Roeder, Hill, Senior and co who left their role soon after they were employed?

 

CEO Katrien Meire who left after a year? 
 

Are all the above things which have happened and the comments made just all a coincidence? 

All sacked.  All bitter.  🤣

Yes every single person who has left Sheffield Wednesday or has not been offered a job is just bitter. 

 

Meanwhile everything is rosy under DC’s ownership and the high turnover of senior staff and the comments repeatedly out there in the media from experienced football men don’t mean anything.

So why did we employ Bruce or Pulis? If DC just wants a head coach why did he employ two managers who are well known for wanting to be hands on?

 

Personally I think he just doesn’t really know what he wants.

....with no responsibility or oversight.

 

Imagine a football club being run by a third party on behalf of an absent owner. Absolutely crazy.

 

It's beyond crazy.

 

But this is why Chansiri never wants to talk about him. It's the reason why he's refered to as his "advisors". It's why Neil at one point was trying to delete content mentioning him... Because if a large proportion of people woke up to how ridiculous the situation is then Chansiri wouldn't possibly be able to just brush it all under the carpet.

Exactly. Now you are seeing the funny side of it, like I did.

Well so far this season in 22 games for Watford today's favourite, Ivic, has played 541, 352, 4141, 442 and rather bizarrely 3142. 

 

Sure every position will get a go at some point at the rate he goes through formations, if appointed (before his inevitable sacking)

I’m not saying he’s wrong

 

But I bet he’d have taken it if offered


Thats my point

Both talked a good game and got Dc believing in their philosophys

Both wanted money because they thought It would be their last job 

 

Pulis had done nothing for years and Bruce had just embarrassed himself at villa, getting the sack after leaving villa below jos's Sheffield Wednesday 

 

Both managers are well know for chasing the money and don't care who they throw under the bus to get it 

 

DC fell for it and many fans fell for it too

Paul Cook has spoken tonight on Talksport about the Wednesday job. He has been approached. Talks no longer ongoing.

 

The quote in the thread title again struck me. Very similar to what Danny Cowley said on Sky Sports before the Derby game. And it also reinforces what Carlton Palmer has said in the press. 

 

Come on DC why do these managers keep saying the same thing! What is it about the job that’s making them have reservations?

Because DC is a complete fruit loop, simple really.
