Parkinsons Media Control
« on: January 04, 2023, 10:09:42 AM »

What's the point in waiting 2 days to Interview on a match, and then ignoring the biggest elephant in the room.

Weve 2 press officers, 2 communications officers and a digital media manager.

The questions are hardly digging, Brian, and I wonder how much Parkinsons skirtinf of question leads to us asking less pressing questions

struck me as being a completely pointless interview. unless i  missed it they didn't even discuss the last minute disallowed goal.

The worrying thing is that  he seem resigned that we would be losing two players come the end of January.

Let's hope it's jennings and Dinanga. 😎

He has right about the long term progress and aspirations. He's right about 80% of clubs reckoning they're in with a playoff spot. He's right that we're two injuries or like of players away from being caught short.

I am sure he'd love all the loan players to stay, and nobody will be working harder to try and make that happen

I don't think we'll make the PO's this year, but next season if 2 of the top 3 go up; it' is blown wide open for both PO and Title.

We have to become less reliant on short term loans, and not just been a improvement centre; in so many positions.

I hope with greater recruitment; the seeder investment and cosnsistant gates; we can sign more young hungry EFL players around the experience we have, whilst tempting CCC, Bennet, Newby, Smith, Ferguson back.

I find it utterly bewildering that this 16-minute interview omits any mention whatsoever of the biggest talking point from the New Year's Day fixture at Halifax, namely that controversial disallowed late 'goal' involving Colclough and Dinanga.

Now, I appreciate that Parkinson would have been well within his rights to have diplomatically declined to comment on the incident, either to avoid getting into hot water for criticising a match official or having to call into question the actions of one of his players, however I'm at a loss to understand exactly why the topic was never even raised by Flynny.

I'm still waiting for the 'Why did Malarkey play in midfield?' after the Stockport game 12 months ago!

Join the queue. Plus why did Dinanga take the penalty at Torquay in October

To be fair, Brian did allude to it ("disappointment at the end"), but would anything have actually been gained going into that? Maybe they both just decide it best to let sleeping dogs lie. And with four points against FC and 12th in the table, I'm not complaining too much.

If Dinanga was onside, I suspect that PP would have alluded to "an error by the officials". That suggests to me that PP reckoned he actually was offside and therefore warned Me.Flynn that it wasn't for discussion. Tact and diplomacy ? Or ducking the issue ?

To be fair, I couldn't be 100% sure that he was on from the video especially in these days of an offside finger nail, though it must have been close. Anyway, things are generally goin in the right direction, and hopefully we will be better next season.
