    Off course the Kompany money went towards cost we all know that, and it must have been a welcome bonus

    We'll get nowt for Parker but if we want to make a fight of staying up we need to make changes and fast. Parker's post match interview was extremely honest, and he more or less said he has taken this lot has far as he can

    I listened to Parker's after match press conferance on Wednesday, he sounded like a defeated man.

    My wife who does not have a bad word for anyone said he needs putting out of his misery. She also said its a shame Bellamy is not free to come back because of his Welsh commitments. Hard to disagree with her really.

    I have to agree with you BT Bellamy would have been my choice when Kompany left. Was it he was offered the Wales managers job and took it or that he didn't get offered the Burnley Managers job, so took the Wales managers job instead of the uncertainty of working for Kompany's replacement.

    All this talk about Bellamy.
    Just remember who got us promoted against the odds after most fans wrote the season off in August 2024. Pace sold all our best players and Parker built a new team that won us promotion, I doubt Bellamy would have achieved that

    If you don't give a man the tools he can't do the job. Not even Sean Dyche. No way round that whoever our manager is.

    I assume Parker is part of the recruitment process mon ami and we have added around 15 - 20 players during his tenure. He was waxing lyrical about Edwards but won't play him.

    He's probably done the best he can with the resources available, but the PL doesn't stand still. If there is a manager out there who can be guaranteed to keep us up and is available and affordable then you can fire Scotty off tomorrow for me. But I don't see him, so St Margaret's favourite little rhyme about keeping a hold of nursey, is appropriate imo.

    The bottom line sinkov is apart from us Wolves and Dirty Weeds every current EPL team have squads of twenty plus EPL quality players. We can't compete week in week out with these guys, and that's the end of it.
