Re: Scott Parker Sacked

Best dressed! Haha! Thom Browne was cool about 8 years ago, those weird padded blazers he wears too! Lunatic.

Re: Scott Parker Sacked

I have a sort of grudging admiration for Scott Parker, though I'm not really sure why. I have to admit I like his 'best dressed manager' look - for a while he had this 'James Bond' thing going on, and looked really good. But looking cool doesn't win you games. Manager wise, he can obviously cut it at Championship level, and given some money could have done a job in the Premier, so sacking him now seems a bit premature.
Who would have him here at Cardiff, if Morison were to depart?

Not me !

Re: Scott Parker Sacked

Just a thought but if Dyche did take the job Kieffer would probably get a lot moore game time.

Moore has played 90 minutes in each league game this season

Re: Scott Parker Sacked

Sometimes, it's such a minor change that feeds my OCD I've started giving all kinds of weird and wonderful reasons lately!

Yes, I liked him as a player too and agree, don't know where he goes from here.

Has a good record at championship level,don't think he'll be out of work that long.

Best dressed coat hanger more like. The man with footballs biggest head to shoulder width ratio. Its a wonder they could find a suit to fit him. For a bloke who was portrayed as a silky smooth footballer, he doesn't half get the teams he manages to foul, kick, dive and moan a lot. No to the ‘would we have him here’ question by the way

I think you're right there. We'll see him back in the Championship before the end of the season.

Re: Scott Parker Sacked

How can it be personal, I've never met him?

You don't think that the Championship clubs do better at the start when teams haven't sussed them out?

Do you think he's a good premiership manager, the last time with Mitrovic and a half decent squad, he was relegated 11 points adrift of Burnley?

Obviously the sensible board and fanbase of Bornemouth, are all wrong, and some clown who calls himself Eric a half bee knows more

How many more points would you have expected Bournemouth to get given the fixtures they've had?

Do you recall how long it took to get a win in our last PL season? Some promoted teams start brightly, some don't. We didn't, last time out, but came close to staying up. Brentford had a better second half to the season last season. I recall Swansea doing something similar when they won promotion.

I have no idea if he's a good PL manager. I do know that he's achieved promotion to the PL in both of his two seasons in the Championship. Despite Fulham getting relegated, Bournemouth were quick to snap up his services, joining them the same day he left Craven Cottage. Obviously Bournemouth regarded him that highly.

Bournemouth's defeats have all been expected. I'm with others in this thread and presume someone else has already been lined up, otherwise the timing of this sacking is very bizarre.

I'd expect Parker to end up with another biggish Championship or lower PL club based on nothing more than his record. If I've read what you've said about him correctly, you seem to think he's an awful manager who should never be given another job.

I agree that someone will take a gamble on him but you forget that he has also got Fulham relegated TWICE. He was first team coach there when Jokanovic and Ranieri were managers and took over as manager for the last few games when Ranieri was sacked. He then did get them up the following season but took them straight back down again. In his four and a bit years in management therefore, he has presided over and influenced two promotions and two relegations. His teams also have a reputation for moaning, diving and cheating to get results. Hardly a glowing endorsement of his ability as a manager is it ?

Well, yes - and I do recall how long it took to get a win in our first PL season.
Now THAT was a game!

Re: Scott Parker Sacked

Was it my post that sent you into the realms of quantum physics?

Can’t see an obvious club out there for him at the moment.

Sunderland?

I think you've got a man crush Eric. It's OK. That hair gel and manicured look really works for some people.

Na, they all dress from Primark and Matalan up there

Re: Scott Parker Sacked

Sunderland?

I’ve read quite a bit about Alex Neil going to Stoke because he was going to be paid more. If that’s true, Sunderland are unlikely to be able to meet Parker’s wage demands.
