Just heard what he said. Fans were great team were great and then something like the Chairman had been great this week defending me to the investors which isn't easy after 6 defeats in a row. Absolutely nothing wrong with what he said.
Edited by Y Ddraig Goch (03 Dec 2016 6.37pm) No, you missed out the bit about the investors not knowing a lot about football. If he had said what you have stated above then IMO that would have been acceptable. Whether you then have to question SP's level of patience/support is another matter.

I listened for it as it was a few minutes after I'd read this thread. Possibly a different interview? Edited by Y Ddraig Goch (03 Dec 2016 9.02pm)

He did say the investors didn't know a lot about football in the one on one post match. For the full quote, see: and for video: I met Josh Harris at the pre season match vs Philly and he said he was still learning how football worked in England from a business standpoint as it is completely different from either the NBA or the NHL. He mentioned player personnel acquisition and salary structure as areas where he needed explanation from SP and AP. Given team ownership here is completely different from England, I don't see the big deal over AP's comments. Edited by kenbarr (03 Dec 2016 9.38pm)

Christ. We win 3-0 and people pick apart the post match interview. Sounds like people are offended on behalf of US investors they've never met. Maybe they are very open and honest about it with him, after all he has spent time with him that you haven't. Maybe they've said as much to his face. Who knows? Who cares? We won.
Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time. |

I think Pards' comments to the media are often rather clumsy but who cares? Don't think you have to be a football expert though to understand that six defeats in a row and six wins in 2016 is a bit of a worry. Being a fickle fan I was firmly in the "Pards must go asap" camp walking away from the Liberty Stadium last Saturday as that performance was the biggest defensive shambles I can remember watching and suggested that he and his coaching team did not have the ability to sort it out. As other posters have said, we have played better then we did yesterday and lost eg Burnley, but credit where credit is due, Pards has changed things and we looked defensively much better. He also deserves credit for turning us into a high scoring team when lack of goals was a real problem last season. I think the jury is still out on Pards though and he needs a result against Hull, but for me he has done enough to keep his job for now.

Naive at best. They are stupid comments and show how unprofessional he really is with media. The fact that he actually said this on national tv really shows how arrogant he is. When the results go against him again as they will he will have no third chance...he will be sacked.

He said the same thing but worded better on 5Live It was about thanking Parish rather than criticising the Americans You and several other posters have made your position clear for some time. Something you're entitled to do but the hoo ha about this is ridiculous Just watched MOTD and people really are making a mountain out of a molehill. Edited by Y Ddraig Goch (04 Dec 2016 11.17am)
