That's reasonable. I'd argue making a rational assessment of his ability to manage in the championship is difficult given the conditions he's operated under, the likelihood is that no-one here has a full picture of how bad they've been until perhaps he writes a book about it. Time may tell a different story, if he goes on to success elsewhere then some of the people pointing the finger at him may feel differently. However the last point you make is a valid one. He's lost too much support and he's too associated with the misery of the last season in particular for any new owner to continue with him if they want the bounce from a fresh start. My guess is he's probably happy to go as well, the club has been a basket case for a long time now and isn't helping anyone's career prospects including his. What still gets me and one reason why I'm on this thread wanting to talk about the finances and not this subject which doesn't belong here, is that there's several of you that are happy to abuse the man on a personal level because you've not enjoyed the football on offer. Here's a fucking newsflash, no-one has enjoyed the style of football on offer, but some don't use that as an excuse to call a guy trying his best in very difficult circumstances, a cunt. This when you have the very definition of the word owning the club and making the decisions that undermined PP and everyone else in the process? The fact you're doing this as he's giving his time to go in and help the administrators and the club despite he and his staff not being paid since February is one more reason why he deserves at least a basic level of respect, whatever your opinions of him as a tactician. He's conducted himself well throughout despite being under immense pressure. I'm grateful for his efforts for the club during his time here and I wish him well in his next role.

I'm your biggest fan I'll follow you until you love me...

Well the reason I ask is because Blackpool got fuck all and the EFL took pity on them because of the Oyston situation, I'm hoping the same could be done for us

There’s some free software you can get online to rip it straight from the DVD and upload to your computer. https://www.labnol.org/software/upload-dvd-to-youtube/18227/

That Huddersfield game saw biggest exodus of coaches off Moor Lane I can recall - Ribble did over 100 Am sure Tatlocks had a Farnworth connection ? Think we went with them to Everton League Cup semi from the Canary on Plodder Lane Always tried to book with Hargreaves and only went with Ribble when Hargreaves were full - there were some serious not rights who were regulars with Ribble

Not everyone has the pull and can offer wages like we can.

Of course. Dreaming that some rich group buys us is what everyone including myself is doing. But its still silly to say "we should be mid table comfortably". Even if we're bought out by wealthy owners that is probably presumptuous. We'll need to sign (or re-sign) 19/20 players before we can assess what we should be doing - and currently we can't do that. Is all I'm saying.

You need to fuck off with all the doom and gloom, take a break and have some fun, you never know you may enjoy it.

What? Being in league one for a year or two isn't giving up. We're where we are. And have to deal with it and get on with it. Might take some patience and understanding from fans is all while the mess is sorted out. You don't just click your fingers and make everything great. This is a bit like the 80's. We're fighting for our existence but we will rise again. But in the meantime we have to suffer through a bit of shit.

PP is appreciated more for the impact he’s having off the field than on it. says it all really

Everything, including who will manage and play for us depends on who, if anyone buys us. If we're bought, it will be because the new owners will have a plan because picking up a club in our position is not the kind of thing anyone would do without a pretty detailed one. If they haven't been watching the games closely, they may well look at Parky's League 1 record and decide to keep him on and see how it goes.

On another note, a family member heard the following accounts this week of recent events. I can't verify directly so on an anecdotal basis... One guy has a commercial cleaning business and had the contract for BWFC. He got to the stage where he was waiting for payment on the day before his cleaners were to go in before allowing them to continue. When he asked KA to pay on a regular basis he was 'sacked' and some of his staff were taken on by the club to continue the job. He subsequently got a somewhat sheepish request from a former employee asking if he could spare a bag of mop heads because the ones they were using had worn out and they weren't allowed to get new ones. Of course one could argue that the mop heads were all needed on the pitch but that's another story... The second concerns the poor guy who fitted new carpets in the platinum suite and when he presented his bill for £30k was told that he could have a box on the half-way line that was worth the outstanding amount. He made the not unreasonable protest that he had staff to pay, but that didn't avail him. Sadly his business has now gone under.

Swallowing pride comes easily if there’s a few quid in the bank to pay the bills. I’ve no problem at all accepting gifts if they fall our way right now

Liverpool fans suggesting a pre season friendly against us in July to help us raise £400k Nice tough, it’s a bit like Live Aid Hopefully they don’t come on here and read the ‘today’s game’ thread

You just need to watch the highlights You will realise you are wrong Again

Let's not forget the players first strike was last July Anyway, dunno why I'm bothered While I think we won't get owt better than him unless big bucks come in, I'm happy we have a team for now

If Parky is still in charge come August, I'll be disappointed, but I'll still renew my season ticket.

Seniors is decent lytham way

The Cottage, Preston New Rd ,Black Poo. Only welcomes Cottagers though, so i'm told. Never been myself like.

Came on here to drop info so KA would react. Didn’t work then was fronting money for a man who was providing security against property. He rented a house slid in to Trafs DM’s and called him a cunt then likened Traf to a wife beater on an open forum if that’s what a PR company gives you these days I’ll stick to putting fucking adverts up on traffic lights if I ever want some business absolute lunatic
