Knowing our luck he’ll turn us down

Way down, way on down?

Do some research on Reading’s current situation. They’ve not spent a penny whilst he’s been there

they also need to get 65 points to avoid relegation this season as they’re due another deduction

Can you not see a similarity between his credentials now and Parkinson's in 2006?

I think Parkinson went straight in to management with Colchester? Selles gained far more experience within management teams before taking on a management role for himself so I think there's far more to it then the doing well in L1 comparison, for me anyway.

When it went belly up for Parkinson here, wasn't there an opinion that Geraint Williams was the brains behind Colchester's success, or am I imagining it?

Yes a bit robins and viveash

What,did he have Muhammad Ali on his show as well?

Parkinson was more Rod Hull and Emu when he came here

Parkinson was a strange one, in that "on paper" it seemed a very good appointment, though I think some of his methods weren't accepted by some of his senior pros following years of relative success under Taylor.

In fact his entire career has been a strange one being successful to a point but interspersed with failure at clubs with shall we say a slightly higher profile.

I wouldn't say he was a 'poor' manager, but he probably is one of those who has a 'ceiling'.

.....Parkinson got Colchester promoted.

True, but didn't his number two, Williams, do all the hard graft and we found out when Parkinson rocked up, here, without Williams, and was ****e. One of APs failures...

Edit.....Referred to above...

[Off The Line]

Yeah, but has this guy proven himself any more than Grant McCann?

Yes, good point. That might be a significant difference.

The issue is I can’t see us getting promoted with Neil, he might keep us up but then what? We’d have to sack him eventually.

He worked wonders in his first season at Norwich

 

[tricky1664]

Why does club size matter? They've both done similar jobs (if you remove the Norwich promotion as it was nearly a decade ago).

Jeeze that long, I am getting old!

Weird season for you, either hammering teams or drawing and losing to teams you should beat.

We have had key injuries but so do other teams. I think the trouble is a lot of Norwich supporters think we have a god given right to be in the top 6
