Typical press quotes, what the **** is Lineker and Higginbotham going on about, pair of plumbs!! Charlie Nicholas is spot on!!. Chief Footbell writer for The Times, Henry Winter said: "Whatever Monk's mistakes, culpability etc, certain #swans players need to admit their own poor attitude & form played a part in his downfall" Match of the Day presenter Garry Liniker said: "Gary Monk has been sacked by Swansea, albeit 'very reluctantly'. What a business! #swansong Retired playerDanny Higginbotham said: "Poor decision at Swansea. Fear of relegation + the financial ramifications especially this season has led 2 a hasty decision in my opinion" Sky Sports pundit Charlie Nicholas said: "Going into Swansea, you're inheriting a fantastically-run club. Whoever is going to get this gig is getting an absolutely wonderful opportunity to really cement this quite quickly."
Nope not surprised at all: The Danish FA is going through major changes and the Laudrup backers have been sacked.
I feel soory that Monk has gone but obviously results have'nt been good enough. I think the players attitude has'nt been great showing lack of motivation and desire. Astonishing considering how well we started the season.
Yes, Gomis seems to have lost interest. Shelvey can blow hot and cold and I dont know why Cork has been frozen out. Barkley finding it hard in prem. How is he in front of fernandez in the cb spot. Montero was dangerous down the wing and he seems to be in and out
New broom and all that, hopefully we'll either see a marked improvement or some other Club more desperate than us will buy him
We had a brilliant opportunity to sack Monk after the Norwich game and would have had 2 weeks for a new manager to organize for their next game and 2 more games in 2 weeks to prepare for the busy Christmas schedule .Well that time was given to Monk to come up with fresh ideas and carry on. We got 1 point from a possible 9 before they finally axe Monk and now we find ourselves deep in time constraint to not only find a manager but to throw him into the deep end with little time to ready himself . Monks "Fresh Ideas " over that 2 week period leading to 1 point out of a possible 9 including playing Bartley all three games .......probably the single biggest reason for our failure in those final 3 games .
There is a lot of truth in what you say here Roof! But Monk has been with us in all four leagues, the Board were just giving him time to hopefully bring it around, but unfortunately we have now signed some crap mercenaries on £70,000 per week that couldn't give a flying fig regarding the manager or club, and I want the little ****s out, starting with that useless arse hole Gomis..............
The clubs future is a zillion times more important than any manager past efforts at the club , your point falls on deaf ears on that point sir . But to try to blame everything on the players , who were signed at absorbenant wages and cost by either Jenkins or Monk I heard Loud and clear though and if you listen quietly , you'll hear me laughing from here . Jenkins picking up his OBE at the exact moment that his efforts from the last 2 two years ,coming to a head , has caused disintegration of the club's fortunes has got to be one of the most ironic moments in the club's history
