    For me at the point it gets tough for him, and it will, that's where we really come in. Its obvious the boys have his back. If he goes for it I think we need to understand he's passing up the chance to play more than he would like to and cut him a lot more slack than we might an experienced manager. I'm not talking about happy clapping more just unhappy patience.

    It is only 3 games but He's making it very difficult to see pst him right now a blind man riding a horse can see the players are playing for him as a wise man once said you've got to be willing to die for 3 points and we have looked like a squad that's willing to put it in for him. We've tried nearly everything else, I know it's a risk for him and us probably but f×ck it no risk no reward!

    Apart from creating 2 goals with some of the best long range passing we've seen in years?

    Just thought about the new owners post, new CEO Mr. Baldwin? RS to move sideways to be commercial director? Nothing better to do on a Saturday evening. ;)

    Phil Parkinson is my all time favourite City manager but I just can’t see this rumour being true.

    All other times we've been looking for a Manager, he's ruled himself out very quickly.
    Not this time. Silence.

    Parker also mentioned his name on the podcast he did, which I thought was strange.

    Ive heard Rupp may not be around much longer. Talks for a sale could be completed any time now. A friend was told this by an ex manager.

    Hopefully it’s a multi millionaire who likes to spend money

    Maybe Parky has been approached by potential rumoured new owners on his thoughts on a return here If Rupp was no longer around

    If this is ‘any’ manager rather than a City manager, then there are probably thousands out there. If however it is a former City manager, and many are out of the loop, then it can only be one of a few people.:unsure:

    I think a DoF role would be more suitable for Jewell with Wellens as manager. Cannot see it happening though

    Parkinson was interested in coming back in 2021 before we appointed Adams, Rupp was very much the chairman then.
