Desperate stuff Ricc.
He got them promoted and kept them in the Championship under the most extreme circumstances that would have seen most managers quit long before he did. Bill Shankley, Jurgen Klopp, Alf Ramsey and Jose Mourhino working together wouldn't have kept Bolton up last season.

 

Now Parky letting the fans fav and their best player leave after a trading ground bust up that McGeady had.

Parky playing a risky game.

 

You can only have one boss as you should know.

 

it won't end well for Parky.

 

We'll see, as I posted as the boss you can't have your position undermined.

 

But when you're in Parkinsons position it doesn't look good when you effectively blank one of the fans favourites. I get why he did it, the manager should be the one in charge, but unless results dramatically improve he's out of there. Forget what he did here, thats done and gone. Sunderland have far bigger expectations. That said, in league 1 with the players at your disposal at Sunderland you should be successful. Get it right up there and you'll get legend status amongst the mackems.

 

I would have thought what he did here was one of the reasons Sunderland appointed him ?.

 

Why? We were in league 2 when Parkinson took over but with no real expectation rather than to beat relegation to non league. Sunderland have way bigger expectations, they need a manager to not only take them out of league 1 but to also be very competitive in the championship. Parkinson has never shown an ability above the lower leagues. i think it was a poor choice of manager for Sunderland because of where they are looking to be.

 

Not the first bad choice Sunderland have made since the heady days of when Roy Keane got them back into the Premier League, they have no divine right to success.

 

Sometimes you have to be like that. Didn't Alex Ferguson do that all the time? Worked out quite well for him I think. Let them know who is boss.

 

Was never a good fit. Mackems think they are too good for 3rd div football and Parky thinks he is good enough to manage in the Championship.

 

I'm surprised he's got as much as 4% on his side. Should be doing better with the players at his disposal.

 

Looks like Stuart Donald has been found out now.

Parky in the middle of it.

 

What's he been found out doing ?.

 

Fans want him out!

Not taking the club forward and found out in terms of buying the club for a quick profit but doesn't have the money or isn't willing to invest in the club.

Fans want Parky and Donald out!

 

Though he'd been found out for financial reasons, never heard a more whingeing set of fans than Sunderland, a big club with regards the league there in but they are there for a reason.
Maybe changing managers too regularly is the main reason.
