    Losing at home to Walsall in the cup today too. Wouldn’t be surprised if Parkinson wasn’t there before too long.

    Not anymore.

    They have turned it round. The fans don’t seem to be calling for PP head as all the protests are about the owners.

    Yeah.

    Re Parky, I meant more a case of him walking. Surely he’d get a decent offer from somewhere?

    You would think so but it doesn’t seem to have happened. Not sure how many firm offers he had whilst here. Sheff Utd?

    Yeah for some reason he never seems to be in the running. He’s great at reviving clubs. For a while I’ve thought he’d be perfect at Villa.

    I also expected Reading to go for him recently and I think he’d have been a decent candidate for the Wednesday job. It wouldn’t surprise me if one of the clubs relegated from this seasons championship go for him. Maybe Ipswich?

    Suppose it depends how long is left on his current deal and what compo Bolton would want

    not surprised Parky hasn't had any decent offers, everyone's noticed that he's a terrible manager

    I love Parkinson but I think you get him in to revive a club as the style of play will never win over the fans.
    This confirms it wasn’t a try before loan. Bolton owe Forest Green money and Doidge a 3 year contract. Twitter comment. Anderson said wind the club up I don’t care. I’m a secured creditor so I will get my money back.Not who you want in charge of your club. Happy to lose 15 points

    Ah, right.
    Stopped a basket case club dropping out of the FL.
    Got us promoted to L1 in the same season as taking a 3rd Div team to a major cup final, beating three PL teams along the way.
    Got us to the quarter finals of the FA Cup, beating Chelsea at Stamford Bridge - the only team to win there all season in any competition.
    Year on year league position improvement in every season he was here, culminating in establishing us as a L1 playoff team.
    All luck. Obviously.

    Add to that his good work at Bolton getting them promoted from L1 and keeping them up last season under incredible pressure from off field trouble.

    And possibly keep them up again this season unless the FL get some balls and deduct points for what seems a fiasco with the lad Doidge and Forest Green.

    Anderson is a nightmare! What does a secure creditor mean exactly? How can he get his money back if there is none?

    It means when the club goes through administration he is the top of the list of people to get their cash back. Plus he will get his full amount back rather than pennies in the pound. It is similar to the bank lending you money on a mortgage, they have secured their loan against the house, as opposed to a bank loan that is unsecured.

    Yes but there still needs to be money to distribute? Plus I gather he has been paying himself a nice fat consultancy fee at regular intervals, at the same time as not paying players!! Nice bloke.

    He may have secured it against things like computers, desks, etc that will sell even if the club folds. Not sure if the club own the hotel, or ground or training set up etc

    I'm glad I'm not the only one to think so.
