Monk sacked

Monk gave everyone the impression that he had been given 2 options, get on the Orta bus or get out. We now know that was crap as he had refused to sign a new deal, was touting himself elsewhere and when Steve Gibson promised him millions in transfer money and wages he ran away. Fook him, but I still wonder why yesterday straight after a win? Had he been tapped up by Swansea

 

I can’t see it.
They are doomed and he can’t afford another failure on his cv.
One more failure and he will only be in the third or fourth tier forever more.

 

Football manager in

Fair point, if he’d referred to the lads a bit more often instead of the group... said how over the moon he was when we won, and sick as a parrot he was when we lost... then he’d have come across as a bit more emotionally involved

 

Has there ever been a match played where both managers get the sack within hours?

 

I see Carvalhal at Wendies is away now too.

 

I’d imagine Boro have their eyes on a new guy so thought they’d better move quick to get him.

 

I would say no

 

Pulis to Boro with Pearson to Wendies maybe. Getting Pulis to Boro will be a big statement of intent

 

He has never won promotion I don.t think and it will be new to him this league.Set pieces are his trade and I agree about Pearson except he is working in Belgium I think

 

I said I didn't think he had any intentions of staying at Leeds, and we are just a stepping stone,
he knew all along he wasn't staying.

Apparently he turned some players against the then manager at Swansea, so what happened
at Boro is his just deserts.

I suspect the Boro owner had already made his mind up to get rid of Monk before the Wednesday game.

Serves the stupid cnut right for being such a arsehole, may he rot in his CV.

 

IF we don’t stick with Thomas then Pearson would have been my realistic choice.

 

He joined under Cellino, no-one would expect to be staying. Didn’t see any fans questioning his passion or commitment when he shoulder charged Wagner.

Football fans are a fickle bunch

 

Think he took Stoke up???

 

I shall check that Marcus

 

you are quite right in 2006

 

It was hunch and vague memory only, I wouldn’t have put much money on it for sure

 

Pulis took a crap Sunday side called Stoke up from L1 then from Championship to Prem & kept them there. Stokeys thought they were good enough for Champions League so got Pulis sacked. Hes an over achiever, saved Palace then walked then saved WBA.
