For all you initial dissenters and you know who you are Cefncoedjack, Wawrickhunt (Great name) and countless other random fountains of knowledge, do you still want him out?
Come on it's a simple question so answer it then justify it like I answered why I thought Monk was the man for the job then justified why.
Who the f*ck deleted my thread? It did not breach site rules. A GM dissenter? It could not had been for personal abuse because I took pelters when I suggested GM would be up to it.
The moment Raynor94 expressed his doubts GM should had been offered a 10 year deal there and then.
Then again, as the current leader explained, football is a game of opinions and we all have our own.
My opinion (Pre Cardiff City) was that GM would do a good job. P.s - Who was that clown who c*nted him off for his interviewing skills, did you ever listen to Fergie speak? On that basis he shouldn't had managed Saturday League.

If you still remain skeptical you can get some cracking odds on us to get relegated, FYI.

I've been very impressed with his interviews so far. Answers questions truthfully and is an endearing character. I am also pleased with the way he steers the questions to speak about what he wants and not the press. Seems like a natural to me.

No I wasn't my good friend.
I think GM would do a cracking job full time. I would like someone in to help though. Clearly the board and Monk could do with a hand. I think a Hoddle type character could be a shrewd move to work just behind Monk, and also to advise the board with some of the more pertinent decisions.

I see where you're coming from Jack at this point in time, too.
When we stay in the Premier League I too have my 'concerns' over his recruitment abilities BUT at least he knows a footballer when he sees one. "Pablo is a footballers footballer isn't he!" A quote of true footballing mastermind.
AND he would be consulted by and any final agreement would ultimately be made by the board.
In regards to our next fixture against some sh!t team in RED I'd be concerned if Slur Alex himself was the gaffa but like I said at least GM knows a coach Brandon Rowgers team talk inside out.
Listen up, Raheen!
Ultimately, all we the JA can do is support the team especially at Stadiwm Del Liberty, starting with Crystal Palace. And we are a class team with an even better leader! Not even Napoli were ready for this kinda technology.
P.s - We CANNOT play the high line as deployed as the experienced Arsene Wenger (At Anfield), because we WOULD get destroyed, they are too good. Tra people. x

Having GM in charge makes if feel like I have my club back.
He'll need help and I hope the club are supportive, I'm sure they'll do their best. Whatever happens between now and the end of the season he will have my support.
Met him once in Aspers, the night we had beaten Cardiff in the Championship, seemed like a fine fella to me and actually seemed to appreciate that I'd taken the time to thank him for the result that day.
‘……. like a moth to Itchy’s flame ……’
I think fans were understandably sceptic regarding Garry Monks appointment. Untried, untested. Much like Martinez and to a certain extent Brendan Rodgers, where I remember this message board going into a near meltdown at his appointment
Early days. Certainly too early to point and gloat anyway

He's acted as an unofficial 'manager' for years.
He used to babysit Leon Knight FFS.
That's loyalty right there believe it.

Indeed Llangy. Why oh why do we have to create divisions on the forum with crap threads like this? I certainly was one of those that was happy that Garry Monk was temporarily put in charge. I knew that he would instil the Swansea City mentality back into the club. He has also surprised me with his confidence and apparent conditioning of the players both mentally & physically. However, there are other aspects that will come into play if he stays in charge next season.
1: This is Laudrup's side... is he going to be able to attract the right kind of player to join Swansea City, particularly from abroad?
2: It's early days yet. A lot of teams get the new manager boost for several games. Evan De Canio beat Newcastle and was the Darling of the fans for his passion.
3: How will Monk react when he has to manage our side that maybe isn't playing so well? Will he publicly slag them in the media? Could he lose the dressing room to the bigger egos in our squad?
Lots to consider. I'm absolutely landed that Garry's in charge. You could see him bursting with pride on the dugout as we kicked off yesterday.
However, you do yourself no favours starting a gloating thread like this and deriding other posters for having concerns about the appointment of Garry Monk.

I've met him many times and he's a top, top person. I'm sure he feels privileged to be in the position he is, equally though the club can feel delighted that a true footballing man who ticks all the boxes that anyone could look for i.e. knowledge, he'll be a superb man manager, desire and along with the desire the most important factor he will give his absolute all.
That said, it's far too early to come to conclusions just yet. To go straight into management at Premier league level is a massive ask. If he keeps us up, which based on our performances so far I think he will, next season will still be the real acid test.
I'd much rather Monk in charge though than anyone else.

Mate it's not a 'gloating' thread it's a show of support for Garry Monk, the leader, and the board.
I took pelters when I said he'd be up to it so if you give out stick you must be prepared to be man or woman enough to take it back.
Are we all supporting GM? It's a simple question.

Can't doubt your enthusiasm though Kieran.
Well for thing is for sure if we'd played as sh!t as we did against West Ham in ANY of our last 4 games GM + HJ/the board would had taken pelters by the many initial doubters.
Believe in them, and GM.
