Well that’s a man without backbone and self esteem given the crap he has witnessed

I kind of get the feeling - everyone loved. Parker he was ok with all the staff and players.

However unfortunately whilst I accept some players are more talented than others - the minimum requirement is 100% conviction and behind rubbish tactics ( sorry )
As nice a man as Parker was he still ruined the club

Agreed but somebody recruited Parker so they are also culpable.It was mind numbingly boring when we were winning last season so they must have known what it would be like if we were losing week in week out and boring at the same time.I used to think Dycheball was negative until I witnessed Parkerball.He makes Sean's teams look like Brazil.

I've paid attention to him in the warm-ups mon ami he has one hell of a dig on him. I could not understand why Parker would not give him a run of games.

Mind you, lots of things Parker did made no sense to me.

Ffs Tchaouna got his chance early doors and he was ****e apart from the wonder goal against Leeds, so don't blame Parker for not playing him.

I suppose you actually played football ballcock? If you did you will know it takes at least a proper run of six consecutive games to see if you can settle into a side and make a difference. He never got that chance.

Parker persisted with Laurent but Tresor, Tchaouna and Edwards never really got a look in.

The centre back pairings Parker tried never really worked, we had no presence in the centre of midfield despite having Ugochukwa and Florentino to pick from, no bloody wonder we have gone down.

In retrospect Parker should not be allowed anywhere near an EPL team, he's totally out of his depth.

I'm certain a Chairman of a Championship club seeking promotion will give him a job. Bristol City perhaps?

Remind me not to bother watching that game then BT.I would rather weed the garden than witness any more Parkerball even if it is the opposition.

Agree that everyone in every walk of life needs to be given a fair crack of the whip, but in the case of Tchaouna it was obvious that he wasn't ready for this standard of football and needed properly managing. Tchaouna is only young and was imported from overseas like Florentino, these type of players can't be expected to hit the ground running, they need time to adjust to their new surroundings and culture

And you saying he was $hite would have helped him build confidence I don't think.

Talking about $hite, WTF is Foster?

I think Foster still has not had enough time to adjust to his new surroundings and culture....

It's ok giving someone 6 games to prove themselves at 3rd tier, at Premier League level you have to hit the ground running. The standards are so high you can't afford to carry anyone.
