Any manager who walks into the dressing room after the worst performance of the season and finds someone else dishing out the bollockings is going to have the hump.

So PV has the authority over the board to sack someone? Sounds dubious. Why is this dubious? I can sack members of my team at work without having to ask the CEO. I'm expected to know how to hire and manage my department.

He should be able to manage players the way he wants I think what you mean is... If Viera didn't agree with Derry's approach to the players, then he had to go. PV is a manager handling players.

My central point is that the club has not recognised his departure on the website.Not even a footnote. Edited by Willo (04 Feb 2023 11.50am) You are absolutely right to draw attention to this Willo, and I have discussed why elsewhere. In a nutshell, this is a PR/marketing issue and PR/marketing is Parish's domain; it's what he does and what he's good at. Therefore, the fact is that the way he has handled (or failed to handle) the Derry story is significant. Given Parish's PR expertise and his loyalty to former players, both characteristics which have been entirely absent the past week, it seems reasonable to assume that Derry's departure is one that all and sundry welcomed and felt was justified.

Parish is a shrewd businessman and will do what is best for his investments, not what is best for his employees. He's renowned for it in the advertising world. There is a clear distinction in his world between people and business. If it doesn't serve the club to recognise his departure then he won't do it.

Call me old fashioned but i quite like the idea of giving them the hair dryer after an inept display. If PV feels he needs to put an arm round them then he is inviting problems. Ok SD probably overstepped his authority but he has the club in his heart and wont stand for a lack of effort. Always have huge respect for him as one of our admin boys that possibly saved the club from extinction. They are all legends in my book

Absolutely. I feel the same - if I put that much effort in at work I'd expect a bollocking. But obviously what they get a week - I get a year.
