Don't jump the gun with assumptions LR, he's to blame for that dismal display, bad selection, bad football, no game plan and players are colour blind. Monk was very complacent in his attitude towards that game, who the hell is he to decide what Cup comps we stay and don't stay in, this is one of reasons I'm not fully convinced by Monk.
He embarrassed the fans, he embarrassed the travelling supporters, he embarrassed the players and he humiliated the club, I think he's getting above himself now; if we miss out on promotion he'll be the reason, a so called good manager who fails at final hurdles.
Here's what you get for your money, a manager who doesn't give a damn about silverware, he's done it in championship he'll do it in PL, we'll become a team just playing for money, so what will the fans be paying their money for and supporting? He's a coach who's doing what the PL teams do to contribute to degrading English football and everything it use to stand for, Revie and Bremner will be turning in their graves.
Once in PL, if it happens, it'll be a case of stuff the FA and FL Cups, we want to get into Europe to get the money, who benefits, certainly the owner, the club to a certain extent and the following season we go round in a circle and do it all again........what's the effing point if money is all the team are sent out to play for.
I can see our trophy cabinet now, we'll have a 100 Euro note, some lire, some pound notes and a few coins and a partridge in a pear tree, and there's Monk with a big smile on his face saying, look what I won for Leeds United. There'll be no worthy challenges left in game, it'll be a case of, turn up, play, go home repetitively.
Then again, I'm the type who believes we should go out to win every match and comp.
Totally disgusted with Monk.
