• Considering the acrimony surrounding his departure to Bournemouth and the perpetual failure at premier league level with multiple clubs, it would the most bizarre appointment in Fulham's history. It's not going to happen. (NT) -- Samuel, Wednesday, June 03, 05:14:21pm (NoHost/81.78.181.73)
  • Would it be bizarre though? If you're prepared to consider McKenna (who has a similar track record to Parker)... (NT) -- --, Wednesday, June 03, 05:24:52pm (NoHost/90.204.91.94)
    • That's a fair point but Parker has had multiple opportunities in top flight with decent squads and effectively relegated all of them. His moronic treatment of mitrovich illuminated his ignorance and Silva, with basically the same squad (championship) and without drastic changes (premier league), excelled. As was the case with Bournemouth. McKenna has had one opportunity in a craft that takes time and has clearly more about him than Parker. (NT) -- Samuel, Wednesday, June 03, 05:44:40pm (NoHost/81.78.181.73)
    • I don’t get the hype around McKenna - he’s worse than Parker in the premier league and we’d have to pay 8m to get him at least Parker’s free out the two of them (NT) -- Desperate Dan, Wednesday, June 03, 05:56:15pm (NoHost/90.200.222.173)
      • I'm not suggesting for one moment that I understand or that I disagree with you entirely on the McKenna hype. But by what stat or metric is McKenna worse than Parker? SP has effectively relegated 3 clubs. (NT) -- Samuel, Wednesday, June 03, 06:02:31pm (NoHost/81.78.181.73)
        • Parker wins more games in the prem. yes he’s relegated 3 teams but he’s never been as bad as Mckennas. It was Ipswich lowest ever points return and also one of the lowest for any prem manager in the history of the league. I don’t want either at Fulham. (NT) -- McKenna is Parker, Wednesday, June 03, 06:31:45pm (NoHost/90.200.222.173)
          • Again, forgive be my ignorance. But Parker has been in the premier league 3x longer and with clubs that have a considerable framework of experience in the top flight. I'm definitely not over enthused by the prospect of McKenna either, but I'd much prefer him to Parker, whose departure from Fulham was steeped in ungratefulness, acrimony and abject failure. If it is McKenna, then you'd imagine it's an appointment based on due diligence and highly respected and knowledgeable references. (NT) -- Samuel, Wednesday, June 03, 07:06:29pm (NoHost/81.78.181.73)
            • Parker got us relegated with a squad arguably as good if not better than any Silva squad. McKenna managed an Ipswich team with a squad no where near that level. (NT) -- f bloke, Thursday, June 04, 09:40:56am (NoHost/2.219.90.75)
      • FCS! How can Mckenna be worse than Parker. He's only been at Ipswich not several clubs of failure. 3 promotions and one relegation. The truth is he's probably better than Ipswich deserve, If he comes, give him a break. (NT) -- CB, Wednesday, June 03, 06:19:28pm (213-18-174-31.customer.gigaclear.net/213.18.174.31)
        • And how did his season one season go CB? He stunk the place out ala Parker. Another yes man when we need a strong character to push back at the Khans. I’d prefer a well respected manager who won’t take no rubbish. Something that took Silva 5 years to do! (NT) -- Muniz and McKenna Oh dear, Wednesday, June 03, 06:36:33pm (NoHost/90.200.222.173)
          • However he did, he got a 2-2 at the cottage and 1-1 at there's. It's not as basic as you think. (NT) -- CB, Wednesday, June 03, 08:02:34pm (213-18-174-31.customer.gigaclear.net/213.18.174.31)

• Because someone placed £10 million on it. It's a tiny market the bookies haven't a clue. (NT) -- Me, Wednesday, June 03, 06:29:20pm (host86-151-207-147.range86-151.btcentralplus.com/86.151.207.147)
  • Hmm, the only person who would place £10m on it is Shahid Khan. And if he's placed £10 million on it... (NT) -- Parker's got the gig, Wednesday, June 03, 07:08:15pm (82-132-231-137.dab.02.net/82.132.231.137)
    • havent a clue where the million came from there (NT) -- me, Wednesday, June 03, 09:29:38pm (host86-151-207-147.range86-151.btcentralplus.com/86.151.207.147)

• Last season Parker had effectively relegated by January. The two other teams that came up with Burnley, Sunderland and Leeds, survived comfortably and Sunderland are in Europe. (NT) -- Club Stooge, Wednesday, June 03, 07:23:37pm (host81-152-41-25.range81-152.btcentralplus.com/81.152.41.25)

• Would have to consider asking for a refund if that happened (NT) -- Waterboy, Wednesday, June 03, 07:30:47pm (NoHost/90.249.192.194)
  • There's no chance the Khans appoint Parker. Why on earth would they allow him back through the door after the way he treated the club last time? Added to that, he's bloody useless in the premier league which isn't even open to debate. He's had 3 chances and relegated 3 clubs. There wouldn't be an ounce of justification or rational thinking to that appointment. I still think it could be Amorin who gets the job. (NT) -- Samuel, Wednesday, June 03, 07:38:10pm (NoHost/81.78.181.73)

• I'd rather have John Terry with a backroom team of Jamie Bates and Denis Wise! (NT) -- Harry68, Wednesday, June 03, 08:57:49pm (cpc160099-nmal26-2-0-cust805.19-2.cable.virginm.net/82.18.163.38)
  • It's funny because I have a loathing for Bates whereas I don't care about the other two. (NT) -- AC, Wednesday, June 03, 11:29:55pm (2e40d84f.skybroadband.com/46.64.216.79)

• It's not even true - he's 100-1 with BetVictor (NT) -- Fkev, Thursday, June 04, 08:13:45am (NoHost/57.133.213.87)
