I can't understand why you'd be surprised at Monk's success when your main point

is that it's all down to their continental-style club structure and doesn't matter who the manager is

        redmond, fer, olsson (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 9, 19:47:22
        
        Redmond possibly in the future but last season he didn't produce (NCFC) - Brandonio, Nov 9, 19:54:56
        
        Redmond - we'll make money on him for sure (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 9, 20:08:08
        
        lol (NCFC) - Charles21, Nov 9, 19:48:33

        OK, swap him for Yobo (n/m) (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 9, 19:48:50
        
        Bassong was a good signing until he lost it. (n/m) (NCFC) - avenging canary, Nov 9, 19:50:57
        
        yeah, the season before bassong, turner, snodgrass and tettey (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 9, 19:53:55
        
        Precisely. (n/m) (NCFC) - avenging canary, Nov 9, 19:55:01
        
        none of the signings fit in with the squad or the style of play desired (n/m) (NCFC) - Charles21, Nov 9, 19:45:13
        
        We've actually made some decent signings (NCFC) - avenging canary, Nov 9, 19:37:17
        
        I agree, until this season we have generally made good signings since Lambert took over (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 9, 19:39:05
- Ok. (NCFC) - APB, Nov 9, 19:21:29
  - I'd be thrilled if the club proves me wrong and shows real vision (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Nov 9, 19:25:31
    - West Brom will probably go down this season (n/m) (NCFC) - Charles21, Nov 9, 19:32:14
    - Well, we haven't not bounced back up yet. (NCFC) - APB, Nov 9, 19:30:54
      - It's pretty bloody dark now! (n/m) (NCFC) - avenging canary, Nov 9, 19:43:54
- Agree pretty much on Swansea (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Nov 9, 19:12:16
  - "last year" (n/m) (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Nov 9, 19:15:15
- what is their management structure please? (n/m) (NCFC) - Charles21, Nov 9, 19:10:24
  - Good academy, good recruitment, fantastic directors and a legacy left by Martinez (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Nov 9, 19:18:23
    - no, that's not an answer I'm afraid (NCFC) - Charles21, Nov 9, 19:34:08
      - Long term thinking. REAL long term thinking, as cited by Meca and Brandonio too (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Nov 9, 19:37:28
        
        again, not an answer to the question (NCFC) - Charles21, Nov 9, 19:42:00
        
        I think Huw Jenkins is the answer (NCFC) - Brandonio, Nov 9, 19:47:32
        
        Sorry, yes it is. How many clubs without bucketloads of cash think the way they do in (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Nov 9, 19:47:23
    - Huw Jenkins has a pretty hands on role there (NCFC) - Brandonio, Nov 9, 19:28:05
- I can't understand why you'd be surprised at Monk's success when your main point (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Nov 9, 19:07:35
- If we'd bought Garry Monk when I first suggested it then we would be in their position (n/m) (NCFC) - Huge Small, Nov 9, 19:07:27
  - You only said that because he's got the best name in the whole wide world. (n/m) (NCFC) - Garry Brooke, Nov 9, 19:26:29
- too many words (NCFC) - Jumbo1, Nov 9, 19:05:26
