I agree but Diamond showed he had pace and creativity pre season but couldn’t even make the bench we have the player unfortunately we don’t have a manager
Sorry state of affairs, I can see us going in to October with 1, maybe 2 points. Takeover needs to happen and Parkinson needs to be clearing his desk as it's getting typed up on SAFC.com
Scored the all important goal, wasted too many corners and like Gooch looses the ball far too easily. The one good move to-day may have been the enforced return to 442 it might be worth a try, as this formation and some of the players that Parky started with to-day have failed far too often for my liking.
Who was it got Bristol to cheat waste time and disrupt play at every opportunity, i suppose you think Parky was to blame for that also. They will frustrate more teams you can be sure of that.
Can't believe he was on the pitch for the whole game. He loses posetion very easily. Gutted diamond and Neil weren't even on the bench today, they would have been something "different". We could have taken Flannigan off as soon as they scored and put another forward on as 3 CHs weren't needed.
Great, but it still can’t escape the fact that we are run by a tinpot owner who employs....you know what, just ****ing forget it. This isn’t aimed at you btw it’s just that I’m absolutely spewing that the club I’ve invested so much into emotionally, let alone financially are a bunch of cretinous pricks who are happy to be where they are in a ****ty league playing ****ty teams at ****ty grounds. Arseholes every single one of them.
This is exactly how I feel, Parky sticks rigidly to the tried and tested even if it fails repeatably, unless he changes tack, and I doubt he can, we are going nowhere fast.
Definitely Parky . Can't understand dropping the 2 young lads out of the squad today. They have had the biggest impact in pre season. Having Neil as an option today could have been the difference with the way he has played so far.
I agree, the 7th most successful title winning club in the history or football with a 50k stadium and a grade 1 academy languishing in league one playing ****e football against ****e opposition with ****e officials in ****e grounds is truly horrific, I could live with championship footy but not this
Seems like coming from our academy is a handicap, this policy must be fatal for player confidence, and ultimately SAFC imo.
Yep, they will most likely be sold to Juventus and Bayern Munich for 20p and a curley wurley.......and it's the fans fault!
Practically every team will come to the SOL to try and frustrate us. It’s up to Parky to find a way to win when that’s happening. Teams tried it when we were under Peter Reid and we hammered them.
Been saying since we dropped into this monstrosity of a division that we need to get better at ****housery every team does the same against us unless we are 3-0 after half an hour
I have to say I think we looked better when Graham stepped on the pitch. I wish we would play more through the middle but our midfield didn’t look up to scratch today...
