I wouldn't have asked if I'd "known". Sure it was a quarter of the total responsibility for the success and performance of the enterprise was it not? He certainly wasn't putting his reputation at risk as far as I was concerned as, before the four of them turned up to buy the club, I'd never heard of any of them.

Oh, so he just rocked up at an administration meeting, saw that there were no other punters, and said, "Oh well, I'll have a go then".

Zat right?

I think you (and you aren't the only one) should have a bit more respect, that's all.

I do prefer an English manager so hoping we get the ginger one.

It has nothing to do with respect as the one thing that both bexleydave and I respect is his business acumen as he has turned his low risk investment into a huge capital profit.

SJ tried to get Parish involved in a rescue prior to the club going bust but he wouldn't as he saw far greater opportunities in letting the club go bust and picking up the pieces which is what he eventually did.

I don't think that there were any other serious bidders but SP & Co let the purchase go right down to the wire in order to get the most favourable deal going.

"Respect" I have plenty of it for someone who pulled off a financial masterstroke like SP did and even more so for someone who can pay himself £600,000 plus a year to pick a new manager every couple of years and sort out some player contracts

Very negative view on what SP did to save us and has done for us since being in charge.
You also give no consideration to what else CPFC2010 gained by letting the club go into administration before saving it. A club with the impossible Simon Jordan out of the way. There is no way that they would have been able to work in the manner needed with Jordan anywhere near the club still. Most fans can see this for what it is. Others will always look for the negatives in an totally positive situation.

Would you have come to Jordans rescue, I don't think many would have, working with his ego would be difficult. There is no doubt Parish and the other 3 worked a number on Jordan, but they brought the club back from the ashes to a 5th season in the Premier. If he pays himself £600k, so what it's peanuts compared most of what the majority of the players get.
A new manager is playing the same game, waiting until they can get the best deal possible.

Have said all along it won't be Dyche he was never even on the radar. We won't go far a manager already employed elsewhere it's not the way 2010 do business.

Like when they hired the employed Pardew you mean?

Yes it is.

On 29 December 2014, after the sacking of Neil Warnock, Pardew was given permission to talk to Crystal Palace on the club's managerial vacancy, with compensation agreed.

I don't think this

"Oddly enough I have run businesses far more complex than a football club which believe it or not is comparatively simple compared to most businesses."

is respectful towards SP, or for that matter true; but I suppose YMMV.

And Holloway from Blackpool. If the right man is at a club, Parish will ask questions.

Whilst those that worship the ground that SP walks on might say my comment was a very negative view I would say that it was a fiscally accurate view.

To show your bias against anyone that says anything less than positive about SP you further claim that I had a very negative view of what SP did for us since being in charge whereas I didn't actually mention anything about that at all

That is a rather emotive response rather than an accurate analysis starting off from the point where you claim to be speaking for "most fans"

If his release clause is £1 mil it won't deter Parish if/when he wants Dyche.

So what if they did, that's business.
CPFC2010 thought a clean start post administration was better and who's to say it hasn't been!
However under your paragraph "Respect" SP continues to achieve a hell of a lot more than just sorting out players contracts and picking a manager every couple of years as you have stated!
