I'll tell what irks me - Mark Bright sitting next to Parrish presiding over things like some all seeing footballing guru - what the hell as Mark Bright ever done in football management. If he is that great why didn't Parrish make him "Sporting Director" rather than appointing Dougie.

IMO - Parrish is a huge part of our problem - he'll no doubt sack FDB try and take some moral high ground - in the interests of the club, premiership survival, the fans etc..

But he is the one that keeps appointing these Managers - emergencies aside in Pullis and Allardyce his record on managerial appointments is shocking.

I'm sick and tired of the Parrish fan club - he saved us nonsense, that was 7 years ago - get over it..!! Today we have the worst record of any top flight team team since 1924..!!!

Meantime Parrish did not back FDB in the window - made the 2 biggest signings himself - Zaha's contract extension and Sakho - even said after signing Sakho "the fans have been on at me about signing Sakho" - so don't tell me Sakho wasn't a Parrish signing.

Don't get me wrong I think Zaha and Sakho - were/ will be good business.

But from where I sit Parrish seems to be happy for FDB to take all the heat - whilst he sits next to Mark Bright in some "Dragons Den" type scenario - just irritates me so much.

Sadly I think FDB will pay the price - but who will Parrish bring in - Woy?

Be careful what you wish for..!!!

looks like we're out of the title race already. id also say our champions league spot, looks under threat too.

everything abouth the game has been said already, but i have to mention punch & lee...we'd be better off with peters and lee.
for the first time today i shouted at the screen for punch to just fvck off. just slows everything down, and goes only backwards or sideways. i expected him to walk off the pitch like a crab. he then has the temerity to shout at everyone else. offers absolutely nothing.
de boer mustnt rate luka, if he picks punch ahead of him. luka in, and cabaye further forward.

better performance today, apart from the lack of ideas up front. but certainly the players looked like they knew where they were supposed to be, in a familiar formation. which begs the question, why didnt FDB go with this from the onset??? he may not have been in the predicament he is now.

Just the first time? I've been doing it for the last 3 years! He needs to be chopped and so do a few others (i.e. Ward, Delaney, Lee, Kelly etc.). Get rid of the deadwood that have been there for years and free up some money (wages)for new signings who are up to it. I'll say it again, we don't have 11 premiership quality players at this club.

Yeah well a defender castigated for not levelling up and one brought on to do so. What does that tell you about our 'last ten minutes' options?
