MONK OUT

[flouncingarburyboy]

I can't believe I've started this thread as I'd always put myself into the bit of a happy clapper/ever optimistic/look on the bright side kinda guy.

But Oh my God. Haven't listened to his pre-match/post match pressers since post-Northampton when I just lost interest. He talks in cliched banalities.  But all that can be forgiven if the performance on the pitch is at least OK and hopefully even better. I'm in despair watching my brilliant and beautiful club slide into awful and avoidable dross. He is an awful appointment.  And doesn't look like he cares or can even be bothered to care. And I'm not even a ST travelling home and away to games.  Massive respect to everyone who does. 

How was this clown appointed?

Monk out

Someone will be along shortly to tell you it's ridiculous to want to sack a manager after three games, but the poll currently has 19/22 forum users saying the same thing.

MONK OUT.

Reality check. We're crap and Pep Guardiola would struggle with this bunch. So Gary-with-2-rs ain't got a hope.

But Harris seemed to get something to work.  I'm not defending Harris in the slightest but I never thought we'd get relegated with him at the tiller.  Seriously where are the next points coming from under Monk?

I think it's stupid to be calling for a managers head after three games but...we do look absolutely appalling, completely shorn of confidence, lacking in confidence and totally confused so it's where I am right now, albeit blinded by rage.

Lincoln scoring 16 (sixteen) goals in three games does give me cause for thought, not that our performance was acceptable, but that perhaps we faced a good team in awesome form and peak confidence.

Honestly no idea.

You're right, but the situation is also arguably worse now than it was under Harris. His departure undoubtedly shook the squad, I'd argue Monk coming in now is a harder job.

I'm also not sure any manager could turn this squad around now. It needs a complete upheaval.

Andrew, always respect your opinion as I hope I do of many on here.  But if we get relegated (and I think it's looking increasingly possible if not likely at the moment) then would you trust Monk to do anything in terms of getting us back? The man doesn't care. Or if he does he's got a shite way of showing it.

Just heard Monk press conrefence. His my kind of man. Positive energys.

If he takes us down there's no doubt in my mind he should go. I'd think of anyone we appointed this late in the season with the sole aim of keeping us up.

Every one of those players is good enough for a mid table or comfortable lower mid table L1 side. They're just being very badly managed

[westchestertonbear]

Monk does appear to be the 4th best manager we’ve had this season.
