TP must be getting more and more frustrated by the day as all the other clubs around us are bringing in new players. There are only a certain number of players available that would improve on what we have and Hull, Cardiff,Fulham,Swansea,Norwich,West Ham, West Brom are all looking at the same players, If we cannot match them financially we will end up bringing the same standard forwards that we already have. If like Browett says their is a sizeable budget, added with that the funds that TP must have made available by getting players like Kebe off the wage bill then between the mass of people involved in transfer negotiations we need to bite the bullet and get our business done if we want to survive this season.

No...no wind up whatsoever. Younger hungrier players with resale value over 30y/o+ with high wages and no resale value any day.

Still, he or they went away for 10 days and not 31, and not at the end of the window when they'll really want to be an arm's length away.

Don’t get me wrong I am a massive Parish fan and think he has done more for our club than anyone in decades but I believe his role at the club needs addressing before we lose our 3rd manager in quick succession. Parish has no real knowledge of football, he is NOT a football man yet professes to know everything about the game. He is trying to run the club including the team. He needs to quit micro managing. Isn’t it his role to provide a budget for his manager then leave the buying and selling of players to the management team? Why did Freedman leave? I believe he had big issues with Parish so wanted out. Parish later admitted in hindsight he could and should of done more to keep Freedman at Palace. Why did Holloway leave? I believe Holloway found Parish too draining with his constant helicopter (hovering over him) micro managing of everything Holloway did. “I fear the day when the technology overlaps with our humanity.

DF changed his mind on Zaha going. When at CPFC he wanted Zaha to stay, then at Bolton and in front of the press, he thought he should be at Man Utd. Never trust his word. He'll blame everyone else if it doesn't pan out, as he's currently doing, and his squad were originally "Prem quality", then not, then they went on a great run, then bottled it vs IH's Blackpool, then £6mil spent, then a sh1t run, then a good run, now another sh1t run. On the face of that, SP hasn't come out of it too badly. COYP

Quote geoff at 26 Jan 2014 12.50pm I can't help but feel there is too much interference from SP. TP would have known the transfer budget for January and would have known the salary limits. As long as the players he wants fits with both of those he should be allowed to get in anyone he wants. He is responsible for the playing staff and one of his objectives is to keep us up or so we are led to believe. Let him do his job without false promises or one hand tied behind his back. If he think crouch can do a job and keep us up and is within wage structure and transfer budget then he should be allowed to get him. I'm not saying that crouch is the man but just using him as an example. If promises were made to TP to accept the job that are not stuck to then of course I think he would walk. Wouldn't you? He has a million pound bonus (supposedly) for keeping us up. If his ability to achieve that bonus is being hampered by interference then why would he stay. If your example concerning a player that the manager wants is true,that fits the wagebill, within transfer budget, willing to come etc. and the owners say no then there is an issue between them regarding broken promises. However nobody can fix a transfer to meet these requirements as they are fluid based on the negotiations. So there might well be no promises broken but the fact that the owners and manager do not wish for the club to be taken for a ride ? Personally I would rather know that there are some limits being imposed than an open cheque book philosophy. The manager might go in the summer but I don't think it will be down to broken promises. “ [T]here are known knowns; there are things we know that we know.There are known unknowns; that is to say there are things that, we now know we don't know.But there are also unknown unknowns – there are things we do not know we don't know. ” —United States Secretary of Defense, Donald Rumsfeld
