Am I allowed to say anything negative about Parker's style of non-football yet?
Or would that still mean I'm not a true patriot?

I think most agree but leave it until after the game if you're craving some attention

No, if it's the meaningless drivel you were spouting on the other thread.

You play with what you're given. We have no goalscorer.

I doubt you'd have us in the playoff places. No need to panic yet. See what Father Christmas brings us in the January shopping window.

Perhaps we could use this thread to ask why you just said this on the match day thread:

I hope he's sat next to me at the next match

His tactics are mediocre.

No getting away from it.

Yes, let's put that on here as well:

Get in.

When Millwall scored.

Parker is the wrong appointment
I have been 100% committed to that from day 1.
That makes me a kunt.

Parkerball is exactly what Fulham and Bourenmouth fans said it is. It's boring as hell. There will be plenty on here unwilling to acknowledge it, and some of them will get upset by all the people pointing it out, but there's no getting away from it.

It’s dull as dishwater. Absolute mind numbing dross. All good when you’re winning but days like today will wear thin.

I agree with Burnley007. It was the wrong appointment. I couldn’t care less if he left tomorrow. I suspect we’ve got him for the season though as a minimum.

It takes a brave man to accept his mistakes.
Is Pace brave enough?

I'll back you up. This is as bad as CotterBall.

Thanks for backing the lepper

He seems to set out for a 0-0. That's what I don't like. We should be going for 3 or 4-0 and if we win 1-0, no problem.

You'll agree and back up someone whos pleased we are losing? Celebrating their goals?

I'm done with this board

No I back up the idea this managers football is boring and very predictable. Very poor. Playing certain players who are obviously not playing well and others constantly benched.

End of the day it's not good enough and in my opinion he's to go.

I can understand being done with this board but the way. Some proper childish **** goes on on here.

Nobody is enjoying this. The players clearly aren’t.

It’s dreadful. Proper dreadful.

Don’t feed the troll.

Scott Southgate

Boring and dull manager reflected in his style and approach

Benefit of the doubt has been given but it’s getting progressively more dreary. Watching almost carbon copy performances away at Oxford, Hull, Millwall and home against Preston, QPR has been difficult to remain positive with. It’s needed to improve and to show signs of progression but I’m starting to worry that a combination of SP’s tactics and the rank average squad that Pace has assembled with the buttons from his raked in bullions mean that ‘this is your lot’.

Appointing Parker may prove a mistake, it may not. If we're talking mistakes from Pace what about overspending last season and selling virtually all of our attacking quality.

Parker has been shafted by him. Granted his tactics are pretty dire at the min.

Unfortunately there’s no denying that the football currently on show is absolutely terrible. We create nothing. Why he’s persisting with this turgid stuff is beyond me .

Championship for us next season. Are you convinced yet Mr Pace?

Oh dear, never mind

I got slagged off for admitting I booed last week but this is another example of just how low we've sunk. Nothing will improve whilst we have Parker in the hot seat. The set up just doesn't work and we look more turgid by the week.

We have an isolated striker, aimless wingers, nobody running from deep, nothing from the full backs and I don't know where the Josh Cullen of two years ago has gone! It is pitiful stuff, as bad as anything served up by Dyche or Cotterill. I've got tickets for WBA this Thursday. I really hope it improves but the only thing I'm expecting is Burnley won't score... or even look remotely like scoring!

I think it is 17 points from 10games
Keep that up and forget even the play offs

The opinion doesn't, the way you go about expressing it does. It's embarrassing.

Garbage, there must be a better option than him

People have wisely spoken about the dangers of hire and fire policies.

But there is a danger too in adopting the sunk cost fallacy.

Despite the results and league position, the performances since the the opening two games have been dire. So bad that threads like this have legitimacy, even if they seem premature.

It doesn't help that we have absolute garbage in the attacking positions.
Koleosho and Anthony are horrific

Totally agree with you...seeing is believing!

Until we get a decent forward,who can put the ball in the net..its gonna be a long season.

Suits me in this division though,to be honest! simply cos of VAR!

This needs to change now for us to have any chance of even reaching the play offs. Absolutely shocking

He’s making us worse every week, looking forward to see where this takes us.

Wrong appointment.

The warning signs were there with the musings of the Bournemouth and Fulham fans. Not to mention his disastrous spell in Brugge.

We were always going to make a balls up with an appointment sooner or later after hitting the jackpot previously with Dyche and then Kompany.

This is it.

We are a fanbase of people who can’t wait to say ‘I told you so’ 007 the prime example

Parker isn’t getting enough out of the players, even a bang average team should have more than 1 shot on target in the championship.

However I will judge when all players are fit

After witnessing 13 league games, I feel confident in my assessment now that we've made a huge mistake appointing Scott Parker. His two Championship teams had a striker up front who was far too good for the league. We don't.

We're going absolutely nowhere under him and it'll soon be time for the board to make their own assessment as to whether Championship mediocrity this season is acceptable in terms of finances and in terms of performance.

Absolute nonsense. The squad Parker started with discounting the players sold is streets ahead of what Dyche inherited and what Kompany started with once he lost all the Dyche players.

VK would have this squad playing miles better football and would be easily coming top two.

We have to give Parker more time but he needs to be much more positive in his team selection and tactics and he needs to give this team some of identity around how we approach and play this season

Yes, what significant changes took place after those opening two games?
Several of the goal scorers from those two games seem to have gone missing.

No it`s bloody worse, these are supposedly better players, I think we would be seeing better quality performances if Cotterill was manager now, we don`t look fit enough or sharp enough and don`t get me started on the lack of passion or commitment, depressingly woeful football being served up at the moment, really feel for those that made the trip today they deserved a lot better than that

Exactly that, comparing our attacking options to Leeds United and Sunderland. I don’t think we have a front 3 player who has scored more than 2 goals.

Some fun facts for Parkerball, over the past 5 games we are currently:

- The lowest XG in the ENTIRE EFL

- The lowest big chances made in the ENTIRE EFL

- Joint lowest goalscorers ENTIRE EFL

Current form has us finishing 15th, goals scored + chances made has us finishing 16th

When this thread was started, we didn't know if we were just "readjusting" to the turnover in personnel or whether the dull football represented what we'd get throughout the rest of the season.

The longer it goes on, the more evidence there is that the opening two games were the exception to the rule. We're on course now to register 18 (eighteen) games without scoring - with the second most expensive squad in the league.

If the 9 goals we scored in the opening two games are a statistical outlier (evidence is growing stronger they were the exception) it's even worse.

Long way to go yet but this is as dull as I’ve ever seen. We were 1-0 down with 5 mins to go, Trafford is fannying about passing it short to a defender who then passed it back to him. I was screaming at the tv. Woeful and I can’t see us finishing top 6

Should have appointed Bellamy.

It’s dreadful stuff. Every players first instinct is to go backwards. Two totally inept wingers and a non existence strike force.
