[cite]Posted By: LargeAddick[/cite]huge, huge mistake in my opinion. Hope I'm proved wrong. Gonna have a 'strategic review' in January ? Bit too late then.
What he said.
Really hope Parky can turn it around but the signs don't look too promising.
Although i will back him............imo,and this is just my opinion i think it is a wrong move...........de ja ve.........Dowie and Reed didnt we learn from that
Gives Parkinson a bit of stability i suppose.Thought he might of been the man for the job but perfomances and results say not.
Needs to start delivering and quickly.
4 games... will either be shooting up to 15th or 12 points behind... We are Fecked!!!! no matter how much gloss and rose tint you want will not cover this up!!! we will be lucky to get 1 point against Derby, Norwich QPR and Sheff UTD... cant belive people can be so blind to the truth!! we have not Won under Parky so how the feck is he gona start getting results now!!! we have not won since October!!!!! Jan will be to late!!! it is a fecking disgrace what is going on here!! feck them all!!!!
Next few weeks are huge. If we don't get a decent amount we'll be even further behind, then if they did appoint a new man it may be too late for him to change anything and we'd be relegated to League one, then who knows. We could be the next Bradford.
Or we could win the next 4 and our run for the play offs will have begun ;-)
Peeps it really is the end... im sorry... i wish i could be positive, ive searched for photos that will cheer me up but i cant.. One 0-0 against another crap team is all parky has got for us, i feel sorry for the bloke and i would have loved him to come in earlier but its too late now, we will be dead and burried by Jan, weve got 24 games left this season were gona need 53 or more points to stay up Cov got this last year so thats 36 points!! and 12 wins!!! we only got 16 in the whole of last season...
This is ridiculous. If the decision is financial then we have severe problems as I've never heard of a club not appointing the most important person due to this. Either it's a rubbish choice or we are in severe trouble financially.
I was under the impression the player sales had put us in decent shape and under no further financial pressure.
Thought that it was good that the board has responded to the uncertainties and issued a statement. Like it or not, we know where we stand. It hasn't come as any surprise to me but I'm still pleased to see it in print. Basically board is saying we spent too much money and expected to have got a lot more for it than we did. Pardew didn't deliver and we're not happy about it either. Parky's a different man and we can only hope that he can see us through because there's no money to do anything else at the moment. Nothing we can do other than support Parky now.
I have to say I think it's a mistake. Parky may, or (more probably) may not be able to turn it around. But either way stating he's got up to 2009 does nothing for stabilty. Better to give him the job till the nd of the season than string out the uncertainty longer IMHO.
I wish Phil all the best but the reality is that this is not good enough, I'm with Adam on this, terrible decision no lessons learned, the malady lingers on........... (oh and by January we will be utterly fecked sadly)
What Stabiltity people!!!! Still losing and inept performances... if he was the savour we would have seen it from game one!! we lost !!! were are we gona win 12 games?? all we can pray for is that notts forest and the others stay around us, come jan sell ZZ and Shelvey for as much bunce as poss and use that money and hire bloody Anne Sullivan...
It begs the question, what will the board see as an acceptable return from the next 4 games?
Five points might not be enough to save Parky, but who can realistically envisage us getiing even that many....

Sadly though i feel this is a financial decision rather than a footballing one.
let's forget going on about managers now then...
we have 4 league games to go before the start of 2009.
Let's focus on pushing the team on to get as many points as we can.
Come on you reds!

bout 20 mins I think. I don't get news flashes or bulletins so didn't know if anyone had seen it yet.
It is not a disgrace at all. We obviously dont have any money.
Come on Parky.
He'll be alright as long as he's got google images.
Or we could win the next 4 and our run for the play offs will have begun ;-)
Good luck!

no more on it, need to go have a smoke, punch a wall and i will be fine..
(Until we lose 0-4 on Monday, and then he'll be gone...)
This is the biggest gamble the Club has taken in a long, long time.

Les Reed?
