If we win our game in hand, we'll be one point off the top, having beaten the top two and, in my opinion, very unlucky not to have beaten two of three other teams in the play-off berths too (albeit one was in the league cup).
Also - hate to break this to people - we are also top of the 2020 calendar league table (though, in a reversal of the current one, Peterborough and Portsmouth could get ahead of us with games in hand) League One - Annual table
The point is this: anyone who looks at data, rather than the pitch - which is to say most chairmen and certainly the sort we should want - is not going to fire Parkinson. Not even close. It's an insanely high risk move against someone who, statistically speaking, has a very high probability of winning promotion. Our curve is upwards according to just about every piece of data you could collect.
I mean, I agree it's terrible football. But: not going to happen, new owner or not.
If he drops off - sure.
This board's collective mental health would be a lot better if we quit whining about this - it's not going to happen.
