My pre teen son adored Parker and had him as his role model, with his name proudly printed on the back of his shirt. He was so disappointed when he left.
I didn’t have a problem with Parker moving on, it was just the manner in which he left.
If he had asked for a loan back to complete the season I think he would have moved with our blessing. But his petulant attitude and behaviour stuck in most people throat.
While coming back as a player I never abused him as I like to think that I am above that and you be a poor example to others. However I would draw the line at him managing us, however far into the future if ever.
I didn't "abuse" him
But shouted "You let us all down Scott" when sitting in the front row for a match vs Newcastle and he'd come over for a throw

He seemed irked... but maybe that was in my head
