Wanderers Ways. Neil Thompson 1961-2021

Our next manager

Recommended Posts

Evidence of 2 weeks training with a full squad to pick from.

evidence of a plan / clear approach to a match

evidence or playing to players strengths

evidence of set piece routines

evidence of players improving over time

 

Winning football will become a by product of the above.

Well the current situation can’t and won’t carry on that’s for certain.

Once the fans turn, sections of the dressing room have gone, there’s only 2 ways it’s ending up. 

 

Results pick up or he’s a gonner. 

Ken decides. The players back Parky. The fans aren't calling for his head at home games and I don't think the majority will either. 

So I suspect we carry on as we are all season and hope things pick up. If Ken was sacking him he'd have done so yesterday.

I’d review that if things are still the same after the Wigan game 

if you think the fans won’t turn if this continues then you’re very naive

I wouldn’t believe every soundbite from a player you hear. 

If you think the fans aren’t turning en masse you must be sat amongst Parkys friends and family wearing earmuffs.

I don't think there is hostility towards him. Most home fans might think "we should try something else" but are still broadly sympathetic to him. He's a decent bloke who's done a great job here. They won't turn on him generally vocally because there isn't any real mass dislike of him.

Most fans are beyond “we must try something else”

yes he’s a decent bloke but he can’t cut it end of 

believe me fans will turn vocally and also by not showing up

The fans aren't screaming Parky out at home. Loads of stuff online. But in the ground? Virtually nothing. There is a difference between fans being sure a manager is a bad 'un and screaming for his head and just simple "well its shit but can't see it getting better whatever" resignation which I think is the general mood of the home crowd. 

LoV as much as they are generally idiots sum it up well here. https://lionofviennasuite.sbnation.com/2018/11/12/18085930/polite-mutiny-the-problem-with-wanting-rid-of-a-manager-that-you-still-really-like

It might change but I don't see our home crowd significantly getting on his back. Most are of the view that until we have investment that its all a short term game anyhow.

Apathy has set in though now & that's worse than having a row about it. I've previously had a go at the yoof who regularly boo the team/tactics but I couldn't turn round now & justify why they shouldn't boo what's happening on the field. I'm past the point of being angry - now just resigned to losing. Still going to Millwall though...

For a change from LOV that does sum it up quite nicely

It’s the apathy i was more alluding to. Players and fans giving up is it what will kill his tenure it’s people voting with their feet will make KA notice more than fans booting off.

Nobody wants this, everyone wants it to work for Parky, but folk have had enough.

It’s not working.

i dont think he should be sacked but id accept poor results being given as a reason for sacking...not style or any of that other shit, just an inability to get points

i dont think anything gets much better whoever we get as i reckon the players arent the best and our best player has just missed months

 

something  to consider, if PP went, how much flack does KA then get come March if things haven't improved

then it stops being 'the managers fault' and the  common denominator will be shit players and skint owners

i dont blame footballers for being shit

if they are, they are

if others agree, then KA is right in the firing line and not just from the usual móngs

What I’m struggling with Parkinson is that he has proved he can get results from these shit players and also get them pumped up

now if you look at the players in and out he has strengthened and and I for one was pleased and excited by some of the additions close season 

I think a change could get better out of this squad but let’s see
