    Gone ?? Or free agents ??

    Right with a bit of luck Parker will be gone before Saturday if not I dread to think what kind of reception will be given. We are now down to Free Agents and I do not know how that works out for us if at all. There are a few out of contract but should we bother ?? Anyone have any thoughts ??

    I hope your right with Parker Lancaster I really do.

    Look at free agents and see who?s available but not holding out much hope - I think it will be toxic soon enough if he?s still there and we play like that.

    It?s not good Lancaster - I?ve scoured prem - championship - Scottish and European ( limited knowledge on some names in there tbh ).

    We?re foo barred I?m afraid we/ I am as poor as our employed recruitment team.

    This season is just another rinse and repeat of the Kompany season, back then Kompany should have been relieved of his duties mid November with the same applying to Parker this.

    If Pace thinks we can go into next season in the championship under Parker and rinse and repeat, he is in for a rude awaking.

    Confidence from the fans is at an all time low and the recent team performances says to me that the players have lost confidence in themselves, and respect for Parker and the club.

    Parker has to go with an interim appointment until the end of season, with someone who has the respect of the players and give us fans some hope moving forwards

    We're as doomed as the Titanic after the iceberg hit, so no point signing anyone now, it would just be re-arranging the deckchairs. Just my own opinion, I could be wrong, but I don't think Pace has any intention of sacking Parker. Maybe the fans can persuade him otherwise, we'll see.

    Not often you are a reliable barometer mon ami but you are spot on with this post. He who has clean hands and a pure heart, cannot possibly run a football team. Pace needs to sack Parker but we all know he won't.

    Scott is on a three year contract until June 2027 and if he is sacked it will cost the club money. Then there is also the task of finding another manager and offering attractive terms to whoever that is. Have we got the brass to do it? I have my doubts.

    Parker will still be at the club come the end of the season and he even maybe still here for next season as Pace & Co. probably see him as the best, and cheapest option to try and get promoted again next season.Parker said in his latest presser that we(meaning him and the owners) need to sit down at the end of the season and discuss what went wrong and how to rectify it - so he obviously thinks he is here to stay.
    If that is so, I will be giving next season a miss I think.My mental health could not take another 12 months of Parkerball.

    If that's the sort of message coming from deepest Budapest, imagine how one feels living in east Lancashire CiB?

    If we put in anymore performances like we did at Sunderland, it would be insane not to sack him.

    Performances like that cannot be tolerated anymore with the lack of effort plain to see, with
    the players literally throwing in the towel.

    If the board don't seem to be bothered about our current position why should the fans waste their time and money, they will literally leave in their 1000s

    Enough is enough. Parker should have been sacked last November, and it would be pure folly not to sack him forthwith

    Parker Out
