It's parkinson

[Peterleeyacker]

Lowest day in club's history by far.

Donald wants the cheapest option possible, Hill & Coton want someone they can control. It's as simple as that i'm afraid.

If it's true that is!

It benefits absolutely no one for us to stay in this league. Donald must think he's the best candidate. No one actually knows if he's the cheapest option. He's had promotions with 2 different teams and there's no reason why he couldn't do it with us.

Poor bloke doesn't stand a chance..

He'll be backed man, that doesn't mean we have to pretend to be happy about this appointment. Your blind optimism is nauseating

 

[Jack Ford]

Tell yer what. I'd be dead surprised no matter who is appointed if they equal jack Ross's points tally over the 1st 10 games. It will be a worse appointment than Ross I reckon. I give him till eastet

 

[sad-eyed prophet]

Is this “payback” for us challenging whether Ross was up to the job. SD was good mates with Ross and I wonder if this is his up yours to us.

FFS!

 

[Smug in Boots]

I haven't had a 'definite' yet but I've had 3 messages saying they believe he's already been appointed.

I can only hope he's a stand in until the Americans take control and we get serious.

 

[Evil Jimmy Krankie]

Not at all, just that not606 are breaking news and RTG is playing catch up. I nearly wrote that Roger's **** his pants but wanted to be grown up about it.

It tickled me that post was top of the list and has been ever since

Thats alright then!! I’m probably feeling a bit exhausted at the moment hence my curt overreaction.

So did Grayson.

It smack's of settling for mediocrity.

 

[joeisonfire]

He is not my choice in the slightest. That said I will support whoever is put in charge, let’s hope if he has been given a contract till the end of the season then that’s his motivation to try get a longer appointment

 

[HeatonMackem]

Erm don't think you can class his time at Colchester or Bolton as a failure. Got Colchester to the highest level they've ever played at. Got Bolton promoted and then kept them up despite loads of off field issues. They were always going to get relegated last year when they weren't paying the players etc. Don't know enough about his time at the other clubs to comment.

I didn't say they were failures. I said 2-3 meaningful successes in 17 years.

Thing is so have other managers. That's the point no one will know until 2 months down the line. Basically our last 5 managers have failed when more was expected from them.

Who would you have had?

Yeh I agree

Nee bosh marra, this isn't RTG. For what it's worth posting on here made me realise how defensive I felt there with all the negativity and there's no way I'd want that here.

 

[Jack TheLad]

Would have rather kept Jack Ross.

****s sake, so uninspiring.

 

[flandersmackem]

well....i'm having a really s4it week at work, this just made a bad week worse. A new manager "should" give fans hope and look forward to new exciting times. Thanks Stewart....you just pi55ed all over them hopes. Ah well, back to work.

 

[The Dude]

Ok I'll admit you didn't say he failed at Colchester but you did say he failed at Bolton.

He surely cant be at the AOL as it will have surely hit the press and the odds will have dropped

 

[SonOfHodge]

Anyone wanting a Bolton view on Parkinson listen to John McGinley's podcast on Under the Cosh, really does not fill me full of hope, he details one instance when Parkinson called him to discuss why he thought his football was so dire.

Ill give him the benefit of the doubt but I see grim times ahead on and off the pitch, what an anti climax.

Let's hope it's till the end of the month and rolling weekly thereafter depending on results . Means we can get Stendel in before the end of November!

 

[Danube]

Ross was failing.
Change needed.
Give him a chance
