What's the story?

Apart from the sheer delight of the past two days and the potential for improvement, I must admit that the excitement is back.

Hopefully all addicks fans will see the benefit of the redvolution in full force. However, the ridiculous claims in the lovely press today seem to be hindering our progress.

  • Curb's did his part for the club and whilst I would never totally rule out a return to the club, he has made it clear that his future lies elsewhere.
  • Other media sources vaguely link Jorge Costa (but it seems the logistics and cost would go against this).
  • Paulo Di Canio!!! As much as the passion he would bring to our game, fascism to our approach and sheer footballing entertainment, this is a long shot.
  • Bloody Lawrie Sanchez. What has a bit part international manager, failed Fulham head coach, think he can offer us. Remembered for one flick header in 1988 that fluked an F.A. Cup final win.
  • Sam Alladyce. Route one, say no more!!

Lets see what Parkinson can do first. Giving Kins and Chapple a lead support will keep the club tradition going. Why can't we just get a solid foundation and move on. Again, consistency is the answer. SDAP and the manifesto can take afoot but we need to secure our place in the division and results are required.

The apt comments in Pedro45 in his letter from Martyn Waghorn home seem to identify what needs addressing at the club. Nicky Weaver now has to perform or get chopped. Bailey's class has to come through or replace him. The strikers must score goals. No excuses (feel free to express this to them during games as protecting their feelings won't help)!

Therefore with the addition of Keith Gillespie, I have revised my view for tomorrow night and hope for some influence from the reserves and if the team is right, then surely they will perform for the new gaffer:

Weaver; Moutaoukil, Hudson, Primus, Basey; Waghorn, Semedo, Shelvey, Bailey, Bouazza; Gray

Subs: Elliot; Fortune, Varney, Gillespie, Todorov

Whoever is selected, the performance is needed. With QPR only just appointing a new manager, we could have had better opponents but the last two away games were an improvement so lets hope!!!
