I wish they had kept him as they would have struggled all season. Now will get a new manager boost

Me also.
Never listened to all the rumours about him re Fulham, but he was a Fulham player and manager, who got us promotion, and some good Prem results.
But I'd feel sorry for any small club manager losing 9-0 to Liverpool, then getting sacked.
This is the danger in endlessly criticising your chairman/MD, if results don't go your way then you're out the door.
I suspect this may have been a failed ultimatum from Scott.
Yet their fans were so pleased to get him.
As far as I understand it he went on the spending spree in January and told the board it was for promotion and to be able to give a good account of themselves in the PL, but evidently he recently told the board that the January signings were to get them promoted and he needed a virtually new team to survive in the PL., information taken from many fan forums.
At least my faith in karma is now restored couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke.
Bournemouth have clearly learnt lessons from our last premier league campaign.

You can't be serious. Held us to ransom to achieve his own ends. Karma indeed. He may have been our manager and achieved promotion but it was excruciatingly boring football. With a better manager I'm convinced we would not have been relegated last time.
Time to retire, Scott.
Thats us stuck with Onanmah,
Such a negative Manger everything was always doom and gloom, Good for Bournemouth
Who is he?
Not good for us.
They'll get a new manager in (possibly Dyche?) who will give them a feel good factor and a string of positive results. The Bournemouth board may also be panicked into spending big (either in the next few days or January).
I thought they were the one team who we would definitely finish above

No sympathy from me. Awful football at CC and even after a couple of good results last year where we showed we had it in us to survive he reverted back to try not to lose rather than try to win football.
Bad news for us.
Every manager no matter how good get sacked even ones that think they no better than DOFs.
The statement (on BBC sport) makes interesting reading. It reads to me as though there was a bit of a debate in the boardroom around transfers which didn't end well for Parker. The statement includes "Run the club sustainably" and mentions showing "belief in and respect for one another".

Yes I agree with this too, I was happy for him to stay there and lead them to relegation with his negative and boring football. Don't feel in any way sorry for him though!

Quick read of their forum, there fans dont feel sorry for him at all
Very strange timing with only two days left of the transfer window open. They probably have more points than anyone could expect from their first four games and if it was strained relationship between him and his chairman why not sack him last week and give a new manager a week to find some new players. As I mentioned in another post how about a cheeky bid for Solanke.

Same here. Surprised that Bournemouth have done this. One bad defeat, against a team that could hammer most teams in the division, and they sack the manager. He's right about their transfer dealings. They didn't back him. Strange time to do it with the transfer window closing.

They backed him to get out of the league, he spent a lot of money last year on a squad that was good enough to get out of the league remember they where romping the league at the start of the season and where lucky to finish 2nd in the end.

Yep, looks like Parker was looking for support in the transfer market, and the people upstairs don't want to spend the PL money on transfer i.e. run the club sustainably. The good news for us it that they are on heading back to the Championship with that squad and that mentality.

Agree with you re: last season, but that squad is not going to survive in this league. They need to sign some PL quality players badly if they want to stay up.
2days left to sign ?how many?
I was looking forward to him continuing to be a terrible manager and us getting an easy 6pts off them. I feel like people will consider him hard done by now and he won't be exposed as the fraud he is, which is a shame.
Statement reads like he annoyed someone upstairs. Ironic considering his comments when he joined them about having "a shared mission" etc.
Wonder if they have Dyche lined up and are worried that Villa will sack Gerrard and move for him first? Can't think of anyone else who would go there?
They'll still go down, I don't care who they sign. Parker built that squad last Jan with a view not just to promotion but to staying up as well. The squad hasn't proved good enough and that's mainly down to him.

I don't think he'd leave us for Leicester or Villa. Learnt his lesson from the Everton thing.
It seems there has been 'a row' involving the owner, and so nothing new there. I would remind people here that when we lost to Burnley and were relegated to the Championship our head coach said he still hadn't heard from the Khans forty eight hours later. Was that said to evoke our sympathy with his seeming plight of being in no man's land when his actual 'hope' was being given the sack so he could happily go to Bournemouth and receive a hefty pay off at the same time? Micah Richards claims the guy is too honest - which kind of gives us a clear picture why football is sometimes the disaster it is - but to be brutally honest if you cannot deal with the rough then you have no right to expect the smooth.
This will either make him or break him.
Oh dear....wonder if he orchestrated his own sacking
I felt betrayed by the manner in which Parker left Fulham , he was looking for the move to Bournmouth and trying to engineer a Fulham sacking with a good pay day at the same time. In spite of the boring "Parker Ball" I had supported him as manager thinking that his time here as player and coach meant he had a little Fulham blood in his veins.
Never really understood why he was so keen to move to Bournmouth ,unless there was good money on the table, and am now even more puzzled by his exit only four games after a promotion season.
Is this post a wind up, if not Parker had best write a book telling all.
Who knew that constantly slagging off the people that employ you could get you fired....

Marco will not leave Fulham for LCFC as they are not intending on spending money on the squad. However, the chairman's son who is now in charge of the club following the unfortunate death of the owner see's the club differently e.g. not spending money and selling players for maximum profit e.g. Fofana

Has any manager of ours ever gone on to 'better' things? Some like Roy got a quick awakening.
Poor Parker ......how anyone on here can feel sorry for him and call themselves a Fulham fan is beyond me.
I take no joy in this despite my dislike for Parker as a manager. I called it. But thats hallow when a mans (persons) job is lost.
As I've said on different posts, Parker is in the same vein as Lampard and Gerrard. Fine managers for a temporary rally in a team bereft of confidence or just adding some extra motivation when you're presiding over a dominant team. When the going gets tough they lash out at everyone else.
Seems that a fair bit of the media is buying his crocodile tears, wonder what board will be foolish enough to get him in the next time.

Only job where failure leads to 'monetary' success.
He'll get a nice big pay off so no sympathy from me.
He has an established place on the 'manager merry-go-round' where every so often a circuit is completed, he picks up £x and moves on to where Parkerball guarantees the next golden goodbye.
So I wouldn't waste too many tears on him.
Yes, contract payout, unless they can prove misconduct. He was trying to get paid out by us whilst manoeuvring to Bournemouth. He's set for life. Honest? Got to be joking

Very rarely do the best players become the best managers. Zidane is a bit of an enigma, in that he has been very successful but is not widely regarded as a managerial star.
The top managers around over the last 20 years have mostly been average or worse as players. Wenger, Mourinho, Ferguson, Klopp, Benitez, Potter looking a decent candidate, none of them outstanding footballers. Guardiola and Ancelotti were quality players but are the exceptions to the trend. It's a totally different skillset and it won't be long before Gerrard and Lampard join Keane and Neville in the studios again.

The issues at Bomo go far beyond match day. It's a shell of a club and I fully expect worse to come from them over the next few seasons...even with parachute payments.
SP will be fine
This is the second Parker sacked post, I am beginning to believe it now.
Mods note, this news , only 4 games into the season is so unbelievable that 2 posts are needed to give it credibility.
Didn't think the Liverpool result would finish him, thought the next two games Wolves (H) and Forest (A) with a couple of results might have saved him! Either way, done is done!
I think it is madness to sack a manager at this time. They bought heavily to get them promoted and they have started ok except for the last result. He clearly doesn't get on with some in the club. But for the club itself having already spent out it is quite a gamble.

Think it is comments like when he came out and said that he believes that there will be several more 9-0 drubbings (or similarly bad results) to come and constantly writing off of their players as not good enough. Compare how he talks about chances to Marco who is rightly annoyed at the lack of transfers, but Marco has been very clear in backing the players who are here to perform.
Sounds like the club had enough of his behavior and complaints about transfers...
...it is unconditional that we are aligned in our strategy to run the club sustainably. We must also show belief in and respect for one another. That is the approach that has brought this club so much success in recent history, and one that we will not veer from now...

I think from his comments he was trying to get sacked and hence another payout. I don t think he believes he can keep them up, so had publicly tried to defend his own position and deflect the blame on lack of depth, quality and the players themselves. Was hoping they would persevere with him longer as now they could get someone else in and possibly get a siege mentality 'bounce' in results.
He's a ons trick pony emotionally. At fulham he was backed and had a squad capable of staying up. He couldn't figure it out then and there was no way he was going to do it at a smaller club, historically, financially, stadium wise and away from London. As nice as Bournemouth may be.
The key part of Bournemouths sacking statement is that you essentially have to respect people- he was either deliberately trying to get himself sacked or being particularly stupid by criticising not only the club and its transfer policy or lack thereof but also when he started saying the players weren't good enough.
That's what leads to an unmotivated team and 9-0 losses.
Bournemouth I don't think, simply put, have the capacity to compete now bigger clubs and bigger investment is going into the league.
Leeds, forest are much bigger clubs in bigger cities with more history and infrastructure to support competitive sides.
Those two will make it much harder for the likes of Bournemouth to be competitive unless they evolve.

Quote from: Twig on August 30, 2022, 08:55:20 AM
Yep, just read this. Wow, where does he go now?
He'll get another Championship job... Has 2 Promotions on his CV....albeit I think that flatters him because he had 2 very good squads and scraped the playoffs with us when he should have got autos tbh.
It had to have been that post match interview that was the final straw. He literally said in the interview that 0-9 was not an indication that the team didn't play their best, but that that was the level that they are and they couldn't do any better. That has got to be the ultimate disrespect to the players. There is no way he was coming back from that with them.
The fact that he is a terrible manager doesn't help his cause either. He is saying that none of his players are good enough to complete in the PL, yet if you look at us. our current first team is pretty much half the players that he deemed not good enough for the PL either. Ream, Mitro, BDR, Kebano, Rodak could never get a look in with Parker and they have been really solid this year.
Ah, how sad, never mind.
Bournemouth lost to Arsenal, Man City and Liverpool, I think. Plenty of other sides will (likely including us later in the season). Hardly a reason for sacking the manager.
He obviously irriated the owner by his comments, but so may MS with his most recent.
In my view, assuming the clubs are no better off, player-wise, by the end of the transfer period, both managers will have been let down by owners who have little conception of what it takes to build a team that can hold its own in the Premiership. If we don't make some further decent signings, I'd not blame MS for walking away. Yes, we have undoubtedly made some, but plainly have a squad so thin that crucial injuries will make winning points next to impossible. If Mitro picks up a long term injury with the squad we have currently, we will be deep in the brown and squishy.

Parker had it coming as Bournemouth did not back him in the transfer market, so I presume they were fed up with him by the end of last season.
He could have ruined Mitrovich's career that way he treated him the last time we were in the Premier League.
He will now have plenty of time to develop a new playing strategy ParkerDole
Ben: Parker has form re: blaming the quality of his squad for not achieving goals. His two squads at Fulham (19/20 & 20/21) were far better than their league positions and performances under him suggested. Think Bournemouth saw history repeating itself and acted promptly.
This sums it up well, from the BBC Sport Football page...
Good bit of business on Bournemouths part tbh
Twice he's left following disagreements with the owner. Not likely to make him favourite with any other clubs looking for a new boss.

Have they really started ok? They did beat Villa (a team that also look like a complete fraud with a largely unproven manager). Then they have lost three in a row with no goals scored but 16 allowed. It is one thing losing to City, Arsenal and Liverpool in a row, but in all three games they have just rolled over without a resemblace of a fight according to what I have seen and read. It's ok to lose to better teams, but surely it is not ok to not even put up a fight?
Couple that with constantly saying that the team is not good enough and the board is to blame and there is really no reason to keep him, is there?
Oh no, I feel so sorry for him

We rarely get official statements on these matters and have to half believe the rumours that often come from the media, as you say in this case the rumours were pretty strong and the best we had to go on.
It's never his fault. He continues to absolve himself of any blame for results.
His last 2 clubs have been very expensive squads for the Championship who should get promoted, he struggles - moans about needing more support, gets backed with new players and eventually achieves promotion, only to fail at kicking on to the next level in the Prem.
He fails to adapt his coaching to the top level, cannot motivate and galvanise a team at the elite level and then blames the owners.
Scott occupies the middle ground between Roy Hodgson and Mark Hughes in my heart - Roy I still love and left with my blessing, Hughes hurt and I wished him only ill will, Parker I wanted gone by that point, didn't like how he did it but moved on quick from him and haven't looked back since. I don't have sympathy for him though.

Can't feel remotely sorry for him. Not so much the payout he gets, but the way he viewed life in the premier league first with Fulham and now with Bournemouth. It's completely clear he sees some games as lost before they kick off. The only way to stay up is to go as hard as possible in every single game and see what happens. Bournemouth didn't do that on Saturday. It shows in how deep they defended for the early goals. Ridiculous amounts of space between six yard line and edge of box. You can't do that and as gaffer when he saw it for the first goal it's his job to do something about it there and then. Abject.
Suspect his game plan will turn to sofa based punditry now. TV remote control sales to rocket as off buttons fail to cope with increased usage.

Bournemouth didn't do that on Saturday. It shows in how deep they defended for the early goals. Ridiculous amounts of space between six yard line and edge of box. You can't do that and as gaffer when he saw it for the first goal it's his job to do something about it there and then. Abject.
Suspect his game plan will turn to sofa based punditry now. TV remote control sales to rocket as off buttons fail to cope with increased usage.

There are far too many drivel pundits. Aggressive bollocks pundits are fewer and in greater demand.
The Bournemouth board just look at Mitro this and last season and the decision is made for them.

Clinton Morrison seems 2 make a career out of it 🤷♂️
The Bournemouth Based fan / reporter (both) on Talksport just not very sympathic at all to Parker, taking the mickey somewhat, hints that he believes he wanted the sack,.and that he has probably made about £4-£5 Million from his last 2 sackings, etc.
You're only as good as your last result.
Let me just check . . . oh, I see !

Good bit of business on Bournemouths part tbh
Not really - he's cost them a packet regardless of how good Bournemouth's contract may have been from their poin of view. If he had any real professional quality or potential he would have quietly said as little as possible after the game and simply respected his employer by quitting the job. That action may have resulted in much, much different circumstances to the one he finds himself in.
But we know, because history tells us so, that Parker demands money for doing anything even when he wants to move onto his choice of new and better employment whilst still under contract. He is his own worse enemy.
It's not just Mitro he ruined, he took Cairney's confidence away and fell out with Ream which is really difficult.He made awful decisions, not least picking Cavaleiro all the time as a central striker. He was terrible.
This is just more of the same. It's a shame because I was backing on Bournemouth keeping him long enough to make relegation certain for them.
He probably broke Cav as well to be honest.

It had to have been that post match interview that was the final straw. He literally said in the interview that 0-9 was not an indication that the team didn't play their best, but that that was the level that they are and they couldn't do any better. That has got to be the ultimate disrespect to the players. There is no way he was coming back from that with them.
The fact that he is a terrible manager doesn't help his cause either. He is saying that none of his players are good enough to complete in the PL, yet if you look at us. our current first team is pretty much half the players that he deemed not good enough for the PL either. Ream, Mitro, BDR, Kebano, Rodak could never get a look in with Parker and they have been really solid this year.
Says it all. He is downbeat, pessimistic, and lacks motivational "nous". I remember posting on here while he was with us that he was inarticulate and I got crucified for it. In my opinion, he talks in meaningless platitudes about the game and his team. He may be a nice bloke, but I'd rather watch a Silva team lose 5-4 than watch a Parker team grind out a 1-0. Many will say it is all about the results, but for me it is all about the performance and the entertainment.
Bournemouth fan in peace here. I believe the below video says it all:

In all seriousness, as a Bournemouth fan the signs were always there from the start. It was harder for us to see what you were referring to, because we did have such a brilliant start to the season. We had youth players coming in, the unbeaten start, and this was all in contrast to Jason Tindall and Woodgate.
It's gotten very ugly, very quickly. He's got a lot of growing up to do if he wants to make it long term as a football manager. But you lot have had a great start, I've never really had a problem with Fulham at all. You lot seem to be the only ones that seem to understand how we're feeling right now. Maybe you might even get some vindication at finally seeing him sacked, even if it helps us in the long term! :005:
I have actually heard SP is not very nice by some - I am sure there are different views.
Going from knowing the project you are taking on to losing all faith in the team and your ability to do the job/slagging the owners seems poor form.

Fair play and been interesting to watch your train wreck that we all more or less saw coming to a certain extent. Good luck the rest of the season except when we meet of course.

Thanks buddy. Its always hard isn't it when a new manager comes in and the old fans can seem bitter. However with Parker it was justified. Im sure when Bmouth see club legends like Steve Cook liking his sacking they understand what we meant. The guy needs to sort himself out before his next job... I wonder where he will turn up. Sunderland maybe?
A four stripe Thom Browne cardigan sells on line for £1,320
When he forced out Steve Cook for Nat Phillips, that was a red flag for me. Parker seemed very keen to isolate and force out any senior players here (e.g. Mitrovic, McDonald, Johansen) as he stamped his vision on the side, but it turns out his vision was more than a little lacking and the whole thing ended in tears. I was supportive of Parker, but the last 14 months have shown that him leaving was great for us.
Unlike most of our former players, I have very little positive memories of Parker. Just a shame that Bournemouth will now likely improve!

So Scotty was finally beamed up from Bournemouth. Good luck to him.
ah well, perhaps the never ending hangover-nightmare that many on here has suffered with since his stint here, will now fade away and we can all now concentrate on our own team and manager! 049:gif

Parker had it coming as Bournemouth did not back him in the transfer market, so I presume they were fed up with him by the end of last season.
He could have ruined Mitrovich's career that way he treated him the last time we were in the Premier League.
He will now have plenty of time to develop a new playing strategy ParkerDole
I think your point about Mitrovich is valid. Very poor man management cost us.

Which puts him on a par with most every pundit out there.
Parker was right.... Mitro isn't good enough for the prem
They talk about Yo-Yo clubs, he is THE Yo-Yo manager.
I do think that it was harsh to sack him after those fixtures, and surely deserved anothe 2 games at least at teams more their level... But his whole demeanour the other day was like he had already gone, he was just SO negative.

Bournemouth should wake up and realise that with the current squad, yo-yoing is the best any manager, that AFC can afford, can do and yo-yoing is a better result than some of three relegated teams will do. In fact they probably need to upgrade their goalkeeper, full backs and wingers just to yo-yo with a good manager.

He was 100% sacked because of his arrogant, cowardly victim mentality. He was literally backed substantially in January, proceeded to talk up these signings as being "built for the premier league", and then proceeded to bin them all from matchday squads cos we were "unequipped to compete".
I know he was like this for you, but I don't think he ever raked your players through the coals to the extent that he did ours, purely to hide his own shortcomings. I couldn't believe some of the shite he was coming out of with. And god knows what he was like behind the scenes with our owner, who in the balance of things is an excellent owner and has been for nearly a decade. He would've ruined us. I don't even care if we go down, at least we won't be £100 million deep in the more now. Thank **** he's gone.

He was never so openly critical of players or board, but he endlessly complained of having no PL level strikers while Mitrovic sat on the bench losing fitness. It is Parker's way or no way, that can't be fun for owners or for players.
Bournemouth, like Fulham, are better off without Parker.
More of "them moments" I'm afraid.
He wasn't sacked for the 9-0,it was for challenging the owners,he's crafty at working his payoffs from clubs.
From the Bournemouth messageboard thread on new managers:
"Giggs is available for a year or so..."
