Parish signs the chequs, he doesn't tell his managers who they are going to get, he goes by what they and the scouts recommend.

Possibly true but when the scouts are sh*te, you end up with Erdal Rakip.

Does the way we have used Max Meyer so far indicate to you that RH desperately wanted to sign the guy?

You think Roy asked us to sign Jaroslav Jach?

I would rather the manager has the last word over a scout. Scouts should recommend players based on what the manager needs.

Remember last January where RH publicly stated we needed to sign a goalkeeper? He never makes public statements like that, and even then the best the club could do was sign a pre contract for the summer.

I think on plenty of occasions Parish does tell the manager who he is going to get.

 


Trump lost. Badly. Hahahahahahaha.

What makes you think they're supporting the club now? Lose away at Chelsea after giving them a decent game and they want the manager and chairman out. Absolutely pathetic.

Couldn't agree more, bloody snowflakes

By the same token, do you think Parish told Roy that he(Parish) wanted to sign Jach or Mayer or Sorloth.
But i do agree with you that it should be the manager who says who he would like to sign, finds permitting.

I can't see the owners digging too deep in their pockets for new signings when there is a new stand to pay for. I suspect they will want to borrow as little as possible. I also think they will be happy to just survive for next couple of years. That could be a dangerous game though.

 


One of the biggest mysteries in life is that loud stupid people normally don't have even the slightest inclination that they are stupid.

Great result and performance by all accounts. Shame Roy and Ray didn’t get the 3pts their efforts have deserved. Fine margins.

Mindless post in my opinion. RH is doing a marvellous Job - we're playing some of the best and most coherent football that we've played in years. We played really well against Spurs, Chelsea and Man Utd - and in every game we were very unlucky to come away without more points. We fully deserved a point from both the Chelsea and Spurs games and could have beaten Man United - given the clear cut opportunities that we had. We are opening teams up and creating opportunities, we just need to start converting those chances. Certainly agree with many on this forum that if we had a proven striker, we would not be hovering at the bottom of the table! To be fair RH is making the best out of the situation he finds himself in but the club should be looking to sign a proven striker in the Jan window whether on contract or loan as our current options up front are sadly lacking and have been for 2-3 seasons now! It's a shame that we sold Murray - what did we get for him £4m? He's scoring goals for fun at Brighton! I doubt there's many would disagree that we need another Murray, who has a good positional instinct, worries and pulls defences around and can hit the target!

 


Cowardice lasts longer than pain.

Agree we have looked much better lately against the bigger sides, but we were awful against the likes of Newcastle and Wolves, really awful in fact.

Burnley is a huge game for us, we need to show up, perform and take our chances as our performances against lesser sides this season have been seriously poor.

Absolutely right.

We are going to be under huge pressure to get a win and should we get into the latter stages drawing or losing the tension will be high-volt crackly.That said, we have been under severe pressure before and succeeded - just think about last season when against all odds we managed to survive.

Fearful for Saturday. They caused us problems when they resorted to route one in the second half of the game last season and not sure we have the quality to break them down when they put players behind the ball.

I think he is more hands on than you seem to think!

A credible explanation. These scouts ... are they from the 5th Sutton or the 1st Beddington scout groups?

In recent years, I thought we'd recruited blind men to search for our players but the final recommendations were actually submitted by their guide dogs?

Be it blind men or their dogs, i still think it isn't Parish who says what players to sign, no decent manager would stand for that, (yes, i know about Zaha), its got to be Freedman as far as i can see.
