You can say all you want about Parish presiding over our most lengthy stint in the prem in history. He certainly has and you cannot take that away from him. Problem is he is also showing us year after year, transfer window after transfer window that he cannot move the club on from perennial relegation dog fight fodder. If Parish is not capable of leading us to some kind of mid table mediocrity, then I would just love to see someone else given a chance to run transfers and managerial appointments. Parish knows business, but he doesn't know football it seems, even after all of these years. I think we will stay up by the skin of our teeth, and I am not just posting this because we just got tonked, we were on a pretty good run until then. I just cannot believe in SP to move the club forward anymore, as he hasn't really been able to do it at all since Holloway brought us up all those years ago. Yes we have been unlucky with injury after injury, but the constant spectre of relegation once again looms large, years after we first popped up into the league. Its terrible decision after terrible decision, not signing a striker last window, not signing a goalie this time, appointing FDB after weeks of messing around, to name a few. You can say all you want about transfers, other teams moving the goalposts, agents playing games, players messing around etc etc. Its the same for everyone, yet other clubs find ways to get their critical signings over the line, and we dont, time and time again. We will never know the inner workings of the club re transfers or anything else, but what we see is the results of those efforts. For example we dont know what Parish did for those painful drawn out weeks while selecting FDB, but we saw the end result didn't we. The results have been p&ss poor for a long, long time.
Trump lost. Badly. Hahahahahahaha. |

parish : the Good
i would remain loyal to Parish. Look at the Newcastle chairman ( or some of da no-a-speak-a-da eeenglish chairmen but got tons of dodgy money and running away from amnesty international ) and be careful what you wish for. Edited by PalazioVecchio (12 Feb 2018 4.09pm)

This ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Sums it up nicely. There is some good and there is some bad however I would take him any day over some of the alternatives.

If Parish takes over from there, you cannot blame Freedman, unless lots of people burst into the boss's office and takes over when they like. It's a repeat of the quad Kerplunk that puts us in a difficult position and you can be sure p1sses off managers, not making any subs, whether it's because there's a result in the balance or not.

Another chairman will face the exact same problems that Parish does. And there’s no guarantee that they’d be be able to overcome the same obstacles any better than he currently does. This is what people don’t seem to get.

Being critical doesn’t mean you do not recognise and appreciate what he has done for the club. But I do want him to progress as a chairman and learn from his mistakes.

Out of interest, what chairman do you think could progress us? Because the way I see it, there are about 12 teams in this division trying to move away from the relegation scraps, and none of them are doing it successfully - Swansea, Saints, Stoke, West Brom, Everton, West Ham have all been trying for longer than we have, and none have been particularly successful - Leicester are about the only team who have distanced them, and their very much the exception rather than the norm. Yes, mistakes have been made, and we do need to look at what we could do better, but that's the case at every one of the clubs I've mentioned.

I do not agree the current board has IMO worked with the best interests of the club
