    Fair point but was responsible for some of the better signings last season it seems. Just an idea. TBH Boggers, bit pissed off with this turn of events.Rads already taken to twitter to explain his side of things

    "Shocking news from Gary Monk. We were keen to do a 3 year deal. we never receive any request from him or his agent. We did our best, no regrets."

    I'm so ****ing fuming right now, I kid you not.

    why is we seem to piss through owner and managers like a bunch of Geordies on a night out?

    5 owners in 12 years, more managers than I can shake a stick at..... it's a ****ing joke

    Monk will be a Boro or Sunderland by the end of the week

    Cheers Eire. As there are 2 sides to every tale, it will be good to get Garry's viewpoint

    Can't see him going to either of those places Eire. He's too good for either club, despite all the money they'll have to play with

    Unlikely Stonky. Sam's retired now isn't he?

    Didn't realise Palace was mangerless.... they might be a good shout for Monk if they throw money at him

    I did a job for a customer on Tuesday, he was a Sunderland supporter and he told me then the fans were all in agreement that they would like a manager like Garry Monk and he felt they had a good chance of getting him.

    I don't think Radz is that bothered after the statement given out earlier, Radz felt we dropped away and we didn't have a winning mentality, I believe Radz didn't want to do EVERYTHING to secure Monk and I believe Monk probably had a few offers from the likes of Sunderland to consider.

    I'm not bothered that he has gone, I didn't rate him as much as many others on here, new owner, new directors, new manager and a few new players, it's not the end of the world, you see, Monk won't come to anything no matter what club he joins, Clotet is probably the better coach of the two.

    A statement said: "While we are deeply saddened by Garry's decision, there is no individual bigger than our club."

    Let's just hope we get a good replacement who speaks English & comes with a decent reputation

    Not going to happen. We'll get some second rate Italian or Hockaday mark 2

    After last seasons league position and crowds, with the money we put into that season, with Cellino gone and a new owner willing to invest, and add to this Radz having put in place directors who know a bit more than Cellino and his sons I would expect the calibre of applicant will probably be a lot better than previous seasons.

    Couldn't agree with this more!!

    Monk was ok, he had the team defending well but going forward we were pretty ****e. If we didn't have an on fire Chris Wood we would have been Fooked!

    Have to see who they choose to put in charge now but my choice would be Larry! He plays the football we want to see and if he's backed it will be AMAZING!

    Not too disappointed as I feel he would have failed next season. Too many mistakes but would have been nice to see if he'd learnt from them.

    Also he never seemed here for the long haul and was using us as a free hit to try and enhance his reputation.

    As far as I'm concerned he can G...F...H as he had a chance to achieve legendary status with us and he's walked away.

    I think so too.i think mr monk has a higher opinion of himself than the club does.two wins from eleven say different.three years way too much.do one monk we will carry on as we always do.
