# Sheffield Wednesday: Many fans react as Garry Monk is sacked

**Sheffield Wednesday have [announced](https://twitter.com/swfc/status/1325903455253393411?s=20) the contracts of manager Garry Monk and his staff have been terminated with immediate effect.**

Wednesday now sit on [six points](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/championship/table), and performances like the [loss](https://www.swfc.co.uk/matches/results/) to Wycombe Wanderers make the mood around the club quite negative.

Clearly the supporters have not been happy as, Ricky Charlesworth, senior football writer for Yorkshire Live, [tweeted](https://twitter.com/Ricky_C90/status/1322904254554714120?s=20) out: ‘Almost 2,000 [#SWFC](https://twitter.com/hashtag/SWFC?src=hashtag_click) fans responded to our Garry Monk survey – and it makes pretty grim reading… Just 7 per cent of respondees believe GM deserves more time.’

It is very worrying that a lot of fans didn’t have a lot of faith in the manager and those feelings have now made their way up to the owner, who wants to give someone else a chance.

Wednesday need an interim until the decision is made on who that person should be, and it seems a lot of fans don’t want [49 year-old](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/lee-bullen/profil/trainer/10734) Lee Bullen getting this role. He has taken over [multiple times before](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/lee-bullen/stationen/trainer/10734/plus/1) as caretaker and clearly, many supporters are hoping that this doesn’t happen again.

With the Owls currently in the [relegation zone](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/championship/table), whoever takes over has a big job and has a lot of work to do to get the supporters on their side.

### Here is what Owls fans said about Bullen following the news on Monk:
