p_mards 1,363 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Independently from whether the club was right of wrong in not giving Bowyer better terms, the way that the statement from Charlton's owner reads as petty, unprofessional and is just point scoring. Simply, it just reflects very badly on the them. If money was that tight then Charlton would have been better giving better terms to Bowyer than spending £300,000 on Bonne from Leyton Orient today. Keeping a good manager - especially one which unites the club like Bowyer has at Charlton - is far more important than any new signing. Link to post Share on other sites

Brunners 7,952 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 I wonder what changed. If I was Bowyer I wouldn't go back out of principle after they tried to throw me under the bus like that. Link to post Share on other sites
DanFromDownSouth 1,706 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 (edited) Pep clotet as interim manager and the rest of the backroom staff staying in place. Has Monk fell out with all of them? Sure when we got rid of Monk the rest went with him. Link to post Share on other sites

Think its just a case that his backroom staff are still contracted to the club so can't just walk away because Monk has been sacked. Imagine if and when a new manager comes in then Monks backroom staff will leave. Link to post Share on other sites

Brunners 7,952 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 19 minutes ago, Changing Times said: Did Birmingham say why he'd been sacked? Here are a few quotes from the owners Quote The board of directors are hopeful that over time the team can adopt a fresh and modern footballing philosophy Quote The board of directors believe this [Monk's sacking] to be in the long-term interests of the club," it continued. It is vitally important for everybody at the club to be sharing the same vision and commitment to the plans and processes. There were rumours he was *** at the Jota sale. I've seen some places now saying Birmingham accepted Gary Gardner +2m without asking Monk. Don't know the truth behind that but that's what I've seen some Birmingham fans saying today.
