There was a moment last night where Noone reminded me of Didsy. He let an easy to control ball roll past him and out of play. 

Lee gave me my most memorable coaching moment watching him have his foot our ready to trap a ball except he had it about an inch higher than the ball. 

Wish noone was 1/2 the player David Lee was.

    Parky's handling of Doidge has been an absolute disgrace. That lad patently knows where the goals are. For fucks sake build the team to give him service and see how he does. 15 mins here and there, wh

    Talk of potting Parky is just mental imo, where did folk expect us to be at this stage of the season? Who can you name that would come in  and suddenly turn us into a decent Championship side?

2 foot 6?

Ken was quite forth right in his assessment on the website today.

David Lee has said publicly he’d love the top job.

He’d have my backing. 

Its not time to change yet, but 4-5 more shit results and it will be.

He'd have mine too, though I thought he'd said the top job wasn't for him.

My mistake.

Not sure how he'd do, but I imagine the philosophy would be far more positive.

Not having that David Lee should replace Parky, within a month the same folk be calling for his head, he’s no experience of managing at a proper level and he’d definetely be a downgrade on PP.

He won a league where Conor hall stood out

Says a lot about his level

But hey, it's a change

And in the minds of folk who oddly forget that things could be worse, There's nowt to lose

No manager can be judged until he's actually managed!

That was also true of Parky at one point.

I'd back any new manager in fairness.

Do you ever give it a rest? Constantly sniping.

Irrespective of your beliefs others are entitled to disagree. 

Feel free to contribute to the discussion instead of playing the cock waving superfan.

Fwiw things might get worse, but unless there's access to a parallel universe, we'll never know.

On balance, many of us feel it's time for a change as it's fucking dire.

Simple

That said I don't go round calling Parky a cunt etc. That's obviously reserved for Coyle.

Whilst Kelly and sjm wouldn't be right, as an interim, David Lee preparing them for a game or two wouldn't bother me.

Not sure he wants a management position anyway, so might suit if PP was given the elbow.

We couldnt be any worse than a group of WW's managing the side; take turns as manager

I would pot him now

I think Parky has earned a bit of breathing space for now but a couple more performances like last night's & I'm afraid he will be toast. It doesn't get much worse than that.

David Lee could well wind up being a Sammy Lee.The only way to find out would be for a team to give him a shot. Not sure I want it to be here. 

Parky has had some slack because of the limitations he's had to work under. But that slack is very close to being gone. 

It's going to take a marked improvement to keep him in a job

It just gets soul destroying travelling 30 miles each way (not as far as many I know, but far enough on a midweek night), seeing the team sheet at 7.00 and feeling like I might as well turn the car round and set off back. Didn't mind the Blackburn loss so much as there were some spells where we played a bit (even my Rovers supporting mate thought we were better than he'd expected), but had no enthusiasm or hope whatsoever walking into that ground last night once I saw that line up

I to travel from Rochdale with 4 other ROCHDALE WHITES. Start at 6pm picking up the others, by the time I get home after dropping everybody off it's 11pm. After watching the Whites for nearly 60 years it does make you think why you bother after that performance. Still be there on Saturday, but I to am running out of patience with Phil. Got our first corner on 45 mins on Tuesday, one shot on target. Totally unacceptable for ANY home game no matter who your playing.

I'm sure the players would respond well to one of your BLOCK CAPITAL bollockings.

Sorry Enzo. It's my age! Comes to us all.

I got home at 6.50 on Wednesday

Shower, butty, back on the road

It was very tempting not to bother

Twas then grimmer than grim, but by fcuk it makes the highs far higher than fair weather fuckers  ever experience

And if i lived in leeds, id not have given a second thought

Red button all the way

I am giving up midweek evening matches .

It took me over 3 hours via the M1 M62.

Coming home the M62 was shut so I diverted through Huddersfield . So 2.5 hours return journey and at my desk for 8.15 in the morning .

Almost 6 hours in a car to watch that appalling football.

Rotherham, forest and hull games were just about as poor as we've seen in recent years . 

When we went 1 down against villa it was game over . I lost interest at 2 nil . That never happens as I am always the most optimistic fan , but midfield is so weak, nil creativity , nil pace , nil goals

It's a fucking nightmare.

I was considering looking into using Forest's official travel to get back from this. Decided I couldn't be arsed.

I once did an FA cup replay at Burnden against  Forest . I travelled on  a Trent Barton coach full with some Forest fans from work.

I ended up directing the coach along St. Peter's Way to avoid traffic .

Trevor Francis scored an extra time winner . The coach got bricked by Bolton hooligans. I refuse to use the word fan for somebody who throws bricks at vehicles. Luckily no windows were broken .

That’s a pretty shit bricking if none of the windows got put through. Were they made of rubber or summat?
