Scott Parker

[bog_standard]

Maybe what is said in this article.

That might be one of the reasons he wants to come here but if he had any faith in his own ability? I just think the club would be making a mistake, I'd even prefer to keep Woodgate than go down route.

Very interesting.

Very interesting.

Nothing about Parker is interesting tbf.

 

[DJ]

If accurate it makes it perfectly clear that Woodgate is not the preferred choice (again) and weakens his position even further.

Coming from a fan of JT, that’s a bit ironic.

Don't know what you're talking about.....I'd love to buy JT a pint ......Parker would probably order a mineral water and want to be home by half eight.

As it stands if what in the Echo is accurate, JW is still manager as far as his contract goes until the end of the month.

This article has two pros and two cons on appointing Parker.

Sounds to me we'll spend another 2 weeks chasing Parker, he'll decide to stay at Fulham do JW will get a 3 year contract

So if the Alex Crook quote is correct...."end of next week" what IS Uncle Jeff going to talk about tomorrow??
Maybe CherryBare is right

 

[Lord Snooty]

The Scott Parker rumour is like the Thierry Henry rumour.
Expect Mr Woodgate to sign as our manager next week.

We need a plan and a direction going forward. If we want any kind of success or to build anything then it CANT be Woodgate. He was an adequate stop gap, no more.

 

[MB1980]

I'll be looking forward to next season with Parker at the helm, not so much if woodgate gets the role.

 

[Garbo]

…if we are going to poach another clubs manager then we can do better than Parker IMO…like Robins at Coventry, Bowyer at Birmingham or Robinson at Oxford?…probably cheaper too!

What is it about Parker that would excite you?..........i just can't see the attraction.

 

[Braithwell]

He's got nice hair, and wanders around the touchline better than JW, his facial expression never changes either, I think he might have a mask on?

He's another one like Gary Monk and Marco Silva who thinks frowning a lot makes him look serious.

Surely a plan and direction should be coming from the club hierarchy,those at the top, proposing to any candidate that they will have to buy into the club's plans of forward progress.
Unless the club does'nt really have a clue of where their plans should be..

On the pitch plan and direction will come from the manager/head coach. We need a manager who will implement his own style and philosophy, we also need a reason to get optimistic. Appointing Woodgate again would seal our demise imo. I’d bet my house on him not lasting the season if we did. (Unless for some strange reason Danjuma was still at the club next year.)

Yeah I'm sure people learn from their mistakes......it can go the other way too I suppose Keane didn't repeat that early promise at Ipswich and technically Burnley was Eddie's second job.
Incidentally Sol Campbell was on talkshite a few days ago saying he would love the chance to manage us!..........he has a better CV than Woodgate tbf.
..

I'd be OK with Sol Campbell managing us, surely his defensive set up would be good.
