Sometimes we get away with it, regularly we conceed. He did lose the ball in the centre of the park yesterday, that proved a turning point of the match. A poor Bailey cross led to the first breakaway goal in the first leg as well (though it wasn't his fault that the team over committed). A bit too much Hollywood, passes and all when the simple ball when do. <br /><br />He also gives 100%, has great courage; and has scored some cracking goals. You can't fault him for that. <br /><br />If he was perfect then he would have been established in the championship before.<br /><br />The management of the M2K, is still a shocker.<br /><br />VFFAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6519968491157736669.post-14222075771314333502010-05-18T16:56:08.548+01:002010-05-18T16:56:08.548+01:00KHA - I don't doubt that the numbers are grim,...KHA - I don't doubt that the numbers are grim, however two my 2p worth:<br /><br />It's no longer a lot of Pardew's players, its a few of them, but a lot of money.<br /><br />Whatever Pardew might have wanted, it's not just down to him. The chairman and the CEO have to approve it.<br /><br />Parkinson has been heavily backed by the board this season, extra players are extra money, even when they are loans. In some cases (left back) he has done well, but in others, notably centre half and centre forward, he failed miserably. <br /><br />There are parallels here with Pardew blaming Dowie, and it shows a negative attitude we can't afford. Which manager signed a player isn't the point - the CLUB did it.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06399377814358941113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6519968491157736669.post-83408680914827905362010-05-18T14:59:26.976+01:002010-05-18T14:59:26.976+01:00Jon,

I have also heard that Moo2 will be awarded a loyalty pay rise next season as part of his contract.<br /><br />I have no idea what Racon, Bailey and Semedo are earning.<br /><br />I'm not saying that I don't value any of these players, just that irrespective as to how good they are we can't afford them in the Third Division.Kings Hill Addickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08523787530053799457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6519968491157736669.post-76478599374929812852010-05-18T12:27:16.988+01:002010-05-18T12:27:16.988+01:00"we have Pardew to thank for that"
-is..."we have Pardew to thank for that"<br /><br />-is this really still the case? <br /><br />Pardew bought Moo2, McLeod, Dickson, Fleetwood, Bailey, Semedo, Spring & Racon.<br /><br />He inherited Eliot, Randolph, Sam, & Youga. Theoretically you would think that Randolph plus the likes of Solly, Wagstaff and Basey should not be on silly money.<br /><br />Parkinson is responsible for Burton, Llera, both Sodje's, Mooney, Reid, Dailly, Borrowdale, Forster, Richardson, Fry and Missing McKenzie.<br /><br />Continually blaming Pardew is cutting Parkinson (who also was involved, remember, under Pardew) too much slack. His 'no money' is a fiction, and importantly he has failed to either motivate or offload the likes of McLeod, Mouto, Fleetwood and Dickson. Certainly the first two are viable players at this level.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06399377814358941113noreply@blogger.com
