May 13, 20188 yr Just read a piece that our average salary this season is £6200 More than pne,Barnsley,burton and Millwall And only slightly behind sheff Utd and Brentford Preston’s owner is worth a billion quid. Obviously doesn’t fancy spunking his fortune on a football club. Wise man.

May 13, 20188 yr Keep him Hes learning, and I just think there’s a lot to be said for stability. It’s like sacking a sales guy even though he’s hit his targets 2 years running. Mental. The only reason we should change him is if we want to push for promotion. We’re a long way off that and I think he can improve us, albeit slightly. Hands up who’s settle for mid table next season, with maybe a cup run? I wanted Mick McCarthy when we appointed that duffer from Palace. Think his no nonsense, in your face style suits our profile. No slight on Parky, he has served us well and, IMO, has had two successful seasons. He will probably keep his job based on that fact alone. I am convinced that MM would have us upper table within a relatively short time. I get folk wanting him gone but he's pulled off something of a sporting miracle two seasons on the bounce. Guy deserves another crack at the very least If we start like last time out then I think I'd feel OK replacing him but not until then. My one niggle is the way the season ended and the players response - even Wheater's comments post Forest seemed like a slight dig at PP so if the players have lost faith he'd have to go. If he did go, MM wouldn't be a bad shout Given what's gone on at at our club we could easily be in the 2nd Div at this point staring at oblivion - PP (and sweaty Ken) are the reasons we aren't.

May 13, 20188 yr Parky deserves another crack at it all things considered.The objective of staying up was achieved & christ it wasnt pretty at times The team selections at the end were worrysome but we got over the line Dont think MM would take the job after being overlooked in favour of Freedman Although that was Garsides shout. Even if he did take the job the style of play would not be much different to PP's

May 13, 20188 yr I'm glad a lot of folk on here don't have a say in next manager haha. Once we get our Wahabi Wonga in the bank we should be appointing Pep within days.
May 13, 20188 yr Once we get our Wahabi Wonga in the bank we should be appointing Pep within days.Aye no middle ground can be had. Mick or pep
May 13, 20188 yr Aye no middle ground can be had. Mick or pep Not in the minds of many fans it can't. Things are either utter shite or fantastic. So big mick and his ilk will be seen by many as an acceptance of mediocrity and we should be showing ambition. All managerial changes are massive risks, even clubs the size of manyoo cant get it right with the pick of nearly every manager in the world. To be honest id rather stick with parky than go with one of the clutch of perennial done nowts that continually get work in the Championship.
May 13, 20188 yr Agree on a lot of that but I would always rather flip the coin than go with a steady appointment if that makes sense. A lot will depend on budgets of course. But I don't think it takes a lot to make inroads in this division
May 13, 20188 yr I'm glad a lot of folk on here don't have a say in next manager haha. Don't get me wrong there's better out there but who would come and who would do better with no pot to piss in? If I thought we could challenge for the playoffs I'd not even consider MM - I do think his style would probably suit where we are right now.
May 13, 20188 yr If we somehow get investment or takeover I think parky will get potted As for who takes over I wouldn't mind Warburton ex Brentford and rangers
May 13, 20188 yr Scott Green has done his badges I'd take PP over any ex player who's overseen a few 5 a sides to get some qualifications
May 13, 20188 yr There is an aspect of this discussion which has not really been considered . What do folks think Parky would do if another club came calling ? Will he stay out of loyalty to the chairman ? To the players ? To the fans ? Will he hang around to see if the new investment materialises only to see his future threatened as a direct consequence of changes in ownership that may arise Is he happy to put himself through more of the same If no investment is forthcoming His stock seems to be rising at present having kept us in this league and though it means very little i noticed on the sack race betting odds he was listed as a contender for vacancies at Leeds , Ipswich and Sunderland I just wonder if he might think he has taken the club as far as he can and move on If he gets a call ?
May 13, 20188 yr He could bring in Frandsen8 as fitness coach. fuck parky, wanderersways can manage this

I was thinking this myself the other day. I'm sure there are more than one or two Championship clubs who might take an interest.
May 13, 20188 yr Gumbo has done his badgesCurrently on an international assignment scouting the next Con Boutsianis
May 13, 20188 yr I'm glad a lot of folk on here don't have a say in next manager haha. we get to hound managers and players out, we just don't get to appoint them unless we wish for it, at which point we have to be careful or something anyway, whatever happens, folk will blame other folk
May 13, 20188 yr Currently on an international assignment scouting the next Con Boutsianis Good God, don't say that name. WWers of old know what inevitably happens next....
May 13, 20188 yr we get to hound managers and players out, we just don't get to appoint them unless we wish for it, at which point we have to be careful or something anyway, whatever happens, folk will blame other folk I think compared to other fans we are incredibly patient

He left Bradford as new owners basically said if he is contract was up they would not renew it. Bradford fans had very similar views to some on here on Parky. They have gone downhill since he left.
