It certainly does.

 

Buckley was released after his contract expired on January 10, 2020.

 

Transfermarkt sez Buckley is mainly a right sided winger,so dylan Connolly going back to get loan players down?

He can play on the left which will be a boon as Zeli cannot even manage 1 in 4 games at the moment.

 

How were they so different then?

 

You want the moon on a stick you do.

 

All the reasons that have been outlined through the thread.

• Clearly defined plan
• Partnerships built and nurtured all over the pitch
• Tactics used to both nullify opponents but also use the skilled players in the team
• Ability to connect team and fans to create atmosphere
• Willingness to use pacy wide players
• Players development
• High level loanees
• Midfield 2 that would control a game
• Centre backs gave the rest of the team a stable platform

They pretty much differed in every aspect of the job apart from using a target man.

 

So how do their style of plays differ? None of that’s stated here. Most of it’s specific tactics you’ve mentioned or fans. They both play an ugly style which requires a target man which is the whole point. We’ll see if performances improve once Bowyer has his target man back. It is his fault though that he didn’t get more than one, Parky was never short on a big man.

 

If you say so. Our victories over Swindon and Exeter in particular we showed potential to dismiss the poor form we are in now as that’s how it has been from day one is nonsense. Also to dismiss the fact a target man wouldn’t have a detrimental effect on a Parkinson team as it is now is also nonsense. We were poor in the few times we played under Parkinson without a target man, so too say it wasn’t the main ingredient is nonsense.

We’ll see when Donaldson comes back, obviously if things don’t improve then we need to look at alternatives.

But after 44 games people were calling Parkinson Plonkinson and soon changed their tune, footballs fickle a few wins on the spin with a few more shots on target and people would soon start to turn again. Deny it all you want.

 

I'm not saying he didn't need a targetman. He did. That's why he kept signing them. But to say it was JUST a targetman and therefore hes the same as Bowyer is stupid.

You're right. After 44 games a lot of people were less than sure and rightly so. However he was lumbered with the worse squad I've ever seen and as soon as he had a summer transfer window he turned it around. Even the loanees, free agents and development of players like Wells during that 44 game spell hinted at something even if the results didn't. Bowyer has had nothing of that type.

You're also right that people called him Plonkinson after that however you need to remember that was people like Fordy who would struggle to create a spark if knowledge was fire.

 

Your memory isn't correct, we signed him from Blackburn.

 

Isn’t the lower tier as it was when it was built in 1986?

 

They are awful, they are so uncomfortable. I hope they ditch these as well. Cheap and nasty

 

Just get behind the seats for 10 year olds ffs!

 

Took these picture last Thursday hoping some could recognise this lad, it was Will Buckley who did not sign for us but returned to Bolton where he fractured his tibial and will require surgery.
