I think(hope!) next week will see an announcement. There needs to be a bit of time to get a coaching team together then its preseason training and full on transfer season too, so logic dictates it will be next season (OK, since when did logic have anything to do with football?!)

Hope your right petereagle. There's been so much speculation about the manager or this manager. I want to start worrying about signings, rather than a manager.

If it's f.de.Boer then surely it's agreed in principle. Then final paper work and media duties done when he's back from holiday.

Good old Sunnerlan, keeping the fans informed regarding a new manager. In essence, an update on why they can't give the fans an update! Ollie's Dad,Ash.

I am sure that the definition is correct, I haven't checked, however, there is a big difference between being fraudulent, deceptive or insubstantial.

Parish being fraudulent would imply that he is trying to make personal gain out of being dishonest. He is not.

Deceptive would imply that he is being dishonest. Which he is not.

Insubstantial would mean that he is not being dishonest, but is keeping some information private. Which is exactly what he is doing.

The operative word in the definition is "or" which means that the term applies to any one of the three definitions. This, it is quite feasible for Parish to be partaking in "smoke and mirrors" without being deceitful.


I have at no time suggested that Parish is anything other than an honest and straightforward man who does not indulge in any sort of subterfuge. I picked someone else up for implying that he was and now I'm being lectured about it as if it's I who suggested it. If you, or anyone else, want to have a discussion about whether Parish indulges in underhand dealings then talk to the person who suggested he was.

I think you might need to look a bit further back in the thread to see the context. I was explaining why I could say that SP was using smoke and mirrors without accusing him of being deceitful. I know this because I was referring to The English language.

That said, you should take care not to accuse people of being fraudulent and deceitful on social media.


I never accused anyone of anything. I said it's a possibility that SP is unscrupulous not that he was definitely unscrupulous. I don't know. I've NEVER had business dealings with. What I did was ask questions on how you where making your assertions.

With that said I could've taken your comments out of context I wholeheartedly agree.

To my mind "smoke and mirrors" does't necessarily imply subterfuge, it implies the use of illusion or of hiding something, but hiding things that are not public knowledge is perfectly good commercial practice; and after all, he that hath a secret to keep must keep it a secret that he hath a secret to keep.

This is growing legs that were not intended. I think you picked me up for saying that he was indulging in smoke and mirrors, I was merely responding to explain how I could have said that he was indulging in smoke and mirrors without suggesting that he was dishonest.

I was not lecturing you, I was explaining what I meant. Since I was the person who (apparently) suggested that he was dishonest originally, and I am happy that I know the context, I don't feel the need to explain myself further.

Shall we put that one to bed now?

I accept that. I also accept that nobody has accused Parish of being fraudulent, unscrupulous or deceitful. With that in mind, it seems that we all agree. We can put this to bed now.

Thank you. A much better way of saying what I was trying to say.

Because the whole thread laughable. Over 300 pages and realistically we no closer to knowing who gonna be the next manager?

Then stop posting childish dribble, if you think it's laughable just bugger off to fun talk or something. Personally delighted with how were quietly going about our business. Mods-Any chance of a card for the next string of imbeciles who decide to go off topic for page after page?
