But Parky did a good job in difficult circumstances until this season when clearly everything fell apart on and off the field. He's a good bloke to have around for a bit. The old recreating history strikes again. hes been shit for quite some time. people may have excuses but Parky staying is one that can be changed (hopefully). lovely fella i am sure but refusing to play people and his general stubborness is not what we need Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember players striking pre-season? It affects things. Parky has by all accounts worked his socks off and gone above and beyond for the club. That's commendable. He probably would like a fresh start somewhere too, but I'd not knock what he did here. And I think regardless of the manager this season was going to end up like this. See Neil Lennon fail here in similar circumstances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was only forced down a route when he wasn’t able to sign replacements for Anelka etc because by then many others, including Mouriniho at Chelsea, were doing the same thing and winning titles and cups. His football was always good to watch as it got results and we weren’t the turgid shitstorm we are now and have been for last 10yrs. And he didn’t leave us for Newcastle. Megson sold Anelka..

anthonyj Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 If the administators need any advice on the younger players why don't they just ask David Lee. Phil Parkinson would'nt know a good player if he came up and slapped him across his expressionless face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spearing has championship and premiership experience. But he's in league one now - which is probably his level. We had a decent league one team but Parky pulled together a group of players who had failed consistently before added to them with free transfers and got us up. Then kept us up. In that time he lost better players and had nothing to spend and we were under embargo. I don't think that is bad by any standards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to remember what the feeling was on here at the end of August when we were top of the table and had won 3 of the first 4. How many were baying for Parky's blood then?

Sick of hearing he’s a nice man etc Just booted a guy at our place ( lovely chap go for s pint etc) but he was shite at his job and that’s the bottom line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MalcolmW Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 3 hours ago, chrisw99 said: The "next manager" problem is confounded by the fact we're in league one. If and when we get back in the Championship we need a manager who can compete at that level and have a proper go at Premier League promotion. Unfortunately the kind of managers with that experience are not going to want to come to a decimated team in League One (unless they have bottomless pockets and an embargo-less transfer window). Although the window for the top two tiers closes on 8 August, it remains open for tiers 3 and 4 until 2 September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ani Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Parky is a decent bloke and certainly not a cunt. Unfortunately none of that makes him good enough to manage in the Championship. His record at a lower level is fine but it is time for a total clear out and he needs to move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
