I have to disagree, as a motivator and coach I think Rogers has been our best manager in recent years. He took us a step further whereas under laudrup I don't think I can honestly say a progression was made on the pitch, other than the profile of the club off it. That said the carling cup run and final was a day I'll never forget, so thanks to laudrup for that. Now we must move on |
LMAO !! are you serious ? thanks for the laugh im guessing education is not something you value ...
Rodgers what a joke !! the guy doesnt know the concept of tweaking he is just like a clown on the pitch he even looks like he is misplaced at times when u notice him ...
Swansea played piss poor passing ball under Rodgers atleast Laudrup taught the players that there is a goal in the opposite end ... |  |

Well said.
Who is going around marking down posts like these that are just saying it as it is? |
The mark up and down is in reverse, not working too well, or some one playing silly boogers. |  | | |

Absolute suicide, to put Monk in charge has condemned us to Championship football. I can understand the reasons behind the boards decision but a replacement should have been lined up for a quick change round. Putting Monk in charge of first team affairs is similar to the Kevin Cullis fiasco. |

First available opportunity was a bad performance at WHU. |
so it would appear - they were just waiting for an opportunity to sack him |  |

The way I read the OS statement, Monk's in charge for the rest of the season. "Foreseeable future..."
Strangely, while still being gobsmacked at the utterly mental timing and lack of any kind of credible succession plan after sacking Laudrup, I am way more hyped for Saturday than I was an hour ago. |
Same here bring it on! |  |

Wow
Part of me is shocked but another part of me ain't
Our performances, results etc etc since winning the COC are well documented
Not sure how I feel about Monk tho
Hope it doesn't come back to bite us on the bum |  | | |

Blimey. Shocked to say the least. There'd better be a body buried somewhere otherwise this looks a ridiculous decision.
Strap in lads and lasses. Gonna be a bumpy ride. |  |

We've proved as a club, as fans, that we're at our most determined & resolute in times of adversity, & when our backs are against the wall. Most of our new fans have never experienced this, having been fed on a diet of promotions & success.
Maybe this will help us re-find our resolve & fighting spirit. Like ECB, the excitement for Saturday has just gone up several notches! |  |

Waiting for the laudrupisgod (kiisgod) post, could use a cheering up :)
On a serious note, GM will def. be a HJ man, so maybe some happy days ahead behind the curtain (not suggesting it will be happy days on the field) | | | |

because it keeps our players here until the season end . |
good point, except they are all under contract and can't just up and leave | |

Who knows what the rest of the season will bring, but yes I'm more positive about Saturday than I was yesterday.
Maybe some players will play with a bit more freedom. | | | |

No, you must be wrong because all of Perchies posts are negatives  |  |

Record points total with a weaker squad
Promotion to the PL

ML comes across as a really decent human being but as a football manager he could not motivate, was tactically naive and after a crushing defeat which exposed these weaknesses greater than ever, he went on holiday to Paris. Can you imagine any other Premiership manager doing that (Pulis, Poyet and others would have got them out of bed 9 o'clock Sunday morning.) I've been moaning about their fitness for months, we look knackered in the last 15 minutes, quite a few points surrendered in that period.
And don't get me started on spending £12+ million on a mediocre championship striker, all his best buys were in the bargain basement, Shelvey being the exception. People seem to be worried about the Spanish players but week in week out Rangel and Chico play with total passion. Canas and Amat have great futures. As others have said with Monk at least we will go down fighting, with ML we were undoubtedly getting relegated without a fight | | | |

So is Monk just an interim manager, or is this lined up for permanent role, are they waiting for new guy to come in? |  |

Wow... totally shocked but at the same time I don't feel surprised.
I hope everyone remembers what ML did for us, great manager, though it was being increasingly obvious that something wasn't right. Wish him all the luck in the future.
As for Monk being appointed... will give him a chance, I trust the board, their last couple of managerial appointments have been spot on. Bit confused as to whether Monk is our permanent manager? BBC Sport seems to suggest so... |  | | |

Monk as coach, f*ck me, what a pressure to give him. This must be a temporary solution and hopefully it will give a boost, but don't think it can give us more than that.
It seems like a mad decision. A derby victory is now a must. IF we loose that one in Monks first game, we're doomed. |  | | |

Bony - mediocre with a goal every other game in a misfiring team.
F*ck me lets go and get the best striker in the championship then | |

What we have to do as fans is to stop this internet inter necine strife that is plain shaming us all.
Some have twigged that things are not right for some time, some believed positive drivel on a chat room would get us to come good. It didn't.
BEST thing is to make us really feisty and nasty on the field in the subtlest ways too. | |

To be fair after first or second defeat last year ML took away the players day of for training as punishment for a bad performance, and there was drama and complaints (think I remember it was monk actually- might be wrong though) | | | |

when you start out your post by insulting anyone that might disagree with you, you loose all credibility. |
My apologies, I'll change clearly deluded to wrong in my opinion! Laudrup was taking us down and he didn't care! At least with monk we'll have someone who will demand maximum effort and try his absolute best to get us playing again! A new manager would take time we haven't got just to settle | | | |
