First press conference

[Zidane]

I'm quite happy he is good at sorting out defence as lack of clean sheets is what is stopping us being top 2.

 

[Phantom of mobs]

Why was SD not there bigging him up ?

Blokes a coward

 

[Boo]

Let's be honest, Parkinson can't win right now because people are angry and upset. They're angry and upset because we're stuck in League One, with a pretty ordinary looking team. Thus, we can only hope for the best.

 

[bat]

Seen so many of these recently they all merge in to the same thing.

Bit that worried me was when he was questioned on whether it's do or die for promotion kind of thing. Didn't get the feeling it is!

Wise reply. Why set targets so high before he has a foot in the door and knows what the players are capable of? Can imagine the sheer panic and turmoil if we haven’t got it sewn up by Christmas.

 

[Mally Mackem]

came across very well.. but so did colemen and grayson.. proof will be in the pudding.. he seemed a lot more relaxed than the previous.. but i get the feeling he wont be relaxed if the players arent performing..

 

[0verlord44]

Time will tell

 

[bahtat]

Why was SD not there bigging him up ?

Because it was the weekly pre game press conference not a press conference to announce his appointment

guess i'm just sick of watching us go 1 nil up and try and sit on it and fail miserably rather than trying to kill a game off

everything i've read about Parkinson suggests more of the same negative approach

we shall see

Have you ever seen one of his teams play?

So did Ross, infact he was one of the most impressive while speaking to the press etc. Like you say proofs in the pudding.

 

[Zidane]

I cant get it to work

 

[red and white pantalooms]

fuck all the negativity and shite from the serial dissenters, he's here, so lets just get behind the bloke and give him the support he needs and see where he takes us

 

[JHmackem]

He's in the middle of securing the takeover with the americans so couldn't make it.

It was his first time in front of cameras representing our club SD should have been there giving his views ! He's avoiding the attention he normally courts !

 

[Pacific]

Have you ever seen one of his teams play?

i can't say i have so i'm basing that assumption on what fans of his other clubs are saying. they can't all be wrong?

let's hope they are

Anyone we know tell you that ?

I don’t think you’re alone, maybe maybe if we’ve not really seen one of his sides play we should just wait and what tactics he uses and make our own minds up

Just to add I live in Bradford and their fans speak very highly of him

 

[Mainze]

Utterly uninspiring appointment, play offs at best if you were being optimistic.

U asked why I tried to tell you I wasn’t defending the situation, out of interest Was there a PC to introduce Ross, can’t remember

Marginally better than where we were a couple of weeks ago IMO. Good luck to him i'm quite optimistic.

 

[Onourway]

Good first impression, down to earth. Fielded the standard questions easily with standard replies. Clearly dealt with the stupid question whether promotion was a target with bemusement as its so bleedin obvious. Steady, clearly has the skills. Ok start.

 

[Hope springs eternal]

Here

Well, we all want to know if the squad's good enough. I don't think so, but he seemed confident.
The point about reviving the club is a bit unnerving. Grayson spoke of that very syndrome/trap - everyone thinks they can do it.

We'd all be suicidal if he said he didn't think he could do it!
