I would have stuck with Evans frankly , but it appears the Leeds circus type " Manager - Go - Round " continues .
Not sure how much impact a manager can have when you appoint 11 of them in a 51 month period .
When will owners ever learn that they don't know anything ..... about the game .
Looks like Monk wants to bring in Pep Clotet , good move IMO.

Roofer... So he's ok with Spanish assistants? It's just the players he had a problem with?

You're obviously not a fan of monk... Surprised to hear about the backstabbing... From a distance he comes across as a decent guy.

I was a big Monk fan as a player and a captain ...... Not so much as a man or manager .
He created a rift amongst players from the get go .
Laudrup was sacked a few hours after a Huw Jenkins handshake saying everything was fine ... By e mail ....and wasn't allowed to return to grounds to say goodbye to players and staff alike .
A lot of unhappy players and anyone who wasn't got shipped out or benched .
Does that sound like a new manager and chairman looking out for the best interests of a club .
Monk is a fuking sneak who bent over for the chairman every time he was asked .
When the Chairman said jump , Monk didn't ask how high ....he just started jumping .
Everything started going south for us , in the big picture , with the sacking of Laudrups agent .
There was a rumour , probably more than , that one of board members nailed Nathan Dyer's wife and Dyer was shipped out to Leicester for the season .
Monk lost the dressing room apparently for not sticking up for Dyer and we struggled after till Monk was sacked .
 
I wish Monk well and really pleased we got him.

However Newcastle and Villa are shoe-ins for promotion leaving just 1 place left and we dont have the ammo or financial clout to do it. way over half the teams in the division have been in the prem in the last few years, we dont stand a chance.

Every season I say the same thing as its true but even more so now. Parachute payments and prem cash have fooked the league. Village pub teams who invested wisely and even bounced a couple of times are able to do it and we cannot compete anymore with the likes of Wigan still, Stoke, WBA, Nowich, Southampton. we're fooked so may as well get used to it because without a very rich benefactor we will not get anywhere near. Monk could be a geniuo and have average players doing a Barcelona but I doubt it

Fair enough... Always interesting to get the views of those closer to the action!
