Well obviously CP was very excited

I believe you can visit France if you are double jabbed, but I think you have to also present a negative test.

He'll have been double jabbed already so just needed a private PCR. If you have money, you can get your result in a couple of hours.

I know I shouldn't get excited, but this is all at least possible, if not plausible! At this stage, contracts expire tomorrow I think? Whatever the yanks want to do with us, not getting a manager in now is certain relegation and thus a significant hit on their investment.

Only problem is that favre holds all the cards now. It's give in or give up!

I think they just put money in when they know, or are made very aware by Parish etc, that if they don’t then we will be relegated and their capital invested will shrink massively. The yanks investing when essential doesn’t ever mean they will continue to. They want a buyer so will step in when the roof tiles need patching up. That is all, but other disinterested or reckless major shareholders and owners in recent times would do less or make big mistakes, so at least they’re looking after their own money which keeps the roof from falling in.

It was widely reported that the initial problem was Favre feeling that he wasn't ready to return to management yet, and especially didn't feel he had recharged his batteries enough to get stuck in to a new country, league and language.

Perhaps Parish is hoping Favre has had a really, really nice restful week since last they spoke.

They flew from the US, picked up Parish then flew to France?

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.
