I'd like to see him go but I can't see anyone who could improve the team right at this precise moment. If we brought someone in now maybe we could get better players in January but I think we have left it a little too late to bring in a new manager.

Donald himself knows the score. He isn't thick and I am sure he is working out all the options. But for now it's a Brexit thing, the majority are not in favour of Parky being sacked. It's just the vocal minority making the most noise. Venting our frustrations online is one way to send the higher ups a message but that usually happens at the Stadium. Granted it was loud so Stewart Donald and Phil Parkinson have already got the message. If they haven't they must be deaf. As I say, the bosses know their positions and Parky knows he is on borrowed time.
Can't be a minority if nearly everyone was booing, can it?

Not everyone was booing though and it wasn't the majority that's for sure.

Correct.
I've never booed the players off at any time ever although it's the boo boys and girls who will ultimately see the end of Parky.

That's right. I think the fans have made their point. No doubt there has been some lengthy conversations between Donald and Parkinson.

Parkinson confirmed after the game that they were discussing transfer targets.

It's just a matter of time now. Maybe Mr Donald didn't want to sack him because of Christmas coming up but that's gone now. New year - new manager.

He gave him a 2 and half year contract. Seeing as he was the cheapest available, he shouldn't have any problem in sacking him..
