SOS Curbs, Please help us

We've had the Pardew out thread and now the Parky out thread.
I thought it was about time we had a come back Curbs thread, just in case the great man reads this board.
I for one refuse to throw in the towel, we are 8 points adrift. Two wins and we could be right back in with a chance. We have Racon and ZZ nearly back in contention. Any team in this division is capable of putting a few wins together.
We will never get those wins with Parky. The players made it clear yesterday that they are not prepared to battle for him. They must be sick of seeing Charlton players being pushed out by loanees who don't give a shit about the club, just as we the fans are.
The board should stop causing further damage by allowing Parky to bring in anymore players of his choosing, or selling any of our potential future assets such as Moo2 and Dickson. Pardew and Parky have done enough damage already, between them they have decimated our club. Enough is enough. We need to send out an SOS to Curbs even if it is only until the end of the season. Offer him a big bonus if he can keep us up. He said he is "hurting" watching our decline. Let's let the man know that we the fans would love him to come back, it may just persuade him to do so.

    We have no money. He wont come back as we cant afford him.
  • Well Chirpy said he was willing to come back, but we declined.

    On the basis that he is earning nothing at the moment, then it has to be a possibility.

    I'm not sure he would risk his saintly reputation by taking on such a task, what would he have to gain? That said I would much rather have him (or indeed anyone with a basic footballing knowledge) around than the current cluless imbecile who is as you rightly say decimating our club with his endless procession of bad loanee's and general f@@kwittery!
  • I'm reasonably sure he would turn it down, I'm reasonably sure Richard Murray doesn't want to go cap in hand, but if you don't ask you definately don't get.

    The one thing appointing Curbs would do is get the fans back on side because he has earnt the respect. Most see it as a lost cause so if he doesn't manage to keep us up then thats life.

    You can be sure of one thing the team would soon have structure and fight.

    Hey ho not likey to happen.
  • How much money haven't we got I wonder. The Directors have said they decided to spend money on the team not a new manager. How much has been spent I wonder? They also say they wont let us go into administration either.

    From where I sit, I think they've wriiten this season off and are resigned to us being relegated (although naturally they hope we wont). How much more is it going to cost us to go down than to stay up with falling gate receipts etc. Well I've season a figure of around £3-4M quoted. Surely then they can structure an offer to another manager, Curbs would be my choice, around a relatively small upfront payment, and a large bonus if he keeps us up?

    If that is not possible then the pot to p*ss in must be more of a thimble.
  • I'd love him back but it is a fantasy and won't happen.

    If he did come people would moan about his boring footballl like they did last time when we were in the middle of the Premiership.

    Why would he subject himself to that?
  • Chance to right the wrongs Len? Chance to be the legend that only some fans acknowledge? Chance for him to wave his credentials in a few peoples faces. Can I see it happening? Well I couldn't really see how they could have appointed Parky after saying that he would be judged on results. By that yardstick he has the job for life and that can't be right in any ones eyes.
  • Most of the curbs boring brigade have probably left over the last 2 seasons hence the reduction of fans at the Valley.

    Mind you good point there are bound to be some rear their heads if he came. Boring 1 - 0 win why don't we play 5 up front and sign Rooney.
  • Lets be honest , Its not going to happen.The club has changed,The attitude of the board has changed, every thing has changed. It's a major job for someone to stop the slide. Can anyone see him wanting that.?
  • IF PDC is that keen on the job and wants to get his foot in the manergerial door then offer him the post on a no pay basis but if we stay up you will get a bonus of say 300k and a contract for next season. If we don't stay up but their is a marked improvement and can show that he obviously has something about him then offer a contract if he wants it. Ship out Ambrose and ZZ or whoever for fees big enough to pay Parky off.

  • Bring Curbs in as Director of Football, Parky can remain as First Team Coach.
  • order two cabs, one to take Parkinson as far away as possible and the other to go and pick Curbs up!

    Dont think our finances will stretch to that. Might have to use the same cab and pick Curbs up on root to dropping Parkinson off. Alternatively we could always just tell Al to buy a travelcard and claim it on expenses a'la Christian Gross.
