Re: Scott Parker Sacked

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'd have expected them to pick up a few points and capitulate with Parker, and thats exactly what they did, and then they sacked him as his after match comments were basically, phsycologically they're finished, me too, i'm shell shocked and haven't got a clue of where to go from here, I knew immidiately it would be the dole queue, and I think he'll be there for quite a while.

Would I want him here, not a chance, but I think he could do a brilliant job wth no money at Swansea when Martin is sacked and take them straight down this season.

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

:hehe: I think he must have.

Re: Scott Parker Sacked

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 ?

I would say it's harsh to suggest he got Fulham relegated twice. They were 10 points adrift with 10 games to go when he took over first time around. One of his 3 wins as new Fulham boss was one we were hoping to win. We might have stayed up if we had.

3 defeats on the trot, to three likely title challengers, is a capitulation? What word did you use to describe the 8 on the trot we suffered under McCarthy last season?

I would say a nine-nil stuffing so early in the season, and the Manager looking completely and utterly lost and shellshocked is a complete capitulation yes.

I would say Cardiff City during that run was a capitulation too, McCarthy looked shellshocked, and he didn’t have a clue how to put things right also, that’s why they were both sacked.

Re: Scott Parker Sacked

McCarthy had a plan. 5 centre backs. Hit problems when teams like WBA went ahead within minutes and the plan was in trouble.

In 1989/90, newly promoted Crystal Palace lost 9-0 at Liverpool in their 5th game of the season. They'd only won once to that point as well. Palace not only survived, they went on to beat Liverpool in an epic FA cup semi final and were unlucky not to have lifted the cup.

Yes, he's still crap, sacked from Club Bruge now, he must be running out of chances because he's been found out time after time after time.

Re: Scott Parker Sacked

Only been managing 4 seasons and got two promotions to the premier league on his managerial CV.

Not bad for someone who keeps getting “found out” :hehe:

Would you prefer him to Sabri?

Mick McCarthy could have got both of them up, give him a proper job and it's the sack within weeks.

Let's see where he goes next and how well he does and how long before he's sacked.

Lets leave the hyperbole alone and deal in the facts. Hes got a 100% promotion record in the championsip.

Any championship club should be happy to have someone with that record as their manager.

Not you though, youd probably prefer Steve Morison ya whopper.

Sack Ten Hag!!! He might well win 3 trophies this season but he lost 7-0 and completely capitulated against their bitter rivals.
