Before all this continental cerebal thinking man stuff started with everybody banging on about how good Rodgers is, let me give a mention to no-nonsense-blood-and-thunder football of the honest English variety.

Parky is his name Parky is our man.

[Drew_3]

legend but no thanks!

[Ian Royal]

Like to see him do it somewhere else after showing a lot of promise at Colchester. Since then not a lot.

If he stays on at Charlton and doesn't take them back up in two seasons we know he isn't good enough.

[Deathy]

As assistant manager, yes. As manager, no.

[Row Z Royal]

No thanks.

[specialjon]

A legend but Quinn and Gooding where legends and that didn't work out very well.

[Millsy]

No thanks.

And no we're not all into newbie Rogers either.

[Kitson12]

NO

[Agent Balti]

No, No, and absolutely No. Lovely bloke, true legend with the shirt on, wouldn't put him on a long shortlist, let alone give him the job. He has done zip to suggest he could take on the job. Giving it to him 'just because' is totally naive.

[Royalwaster]

No!!!! Please not! Would be almost as bad as Tony Adams, Glen Roeder or L.Sanchez.

[Rex]

Or going down the Toon Army route.

I disagree, Quinn & Gooding worked small miracles keeping is in the old 1st Division. They may have got some stick but look what happened when their contracts weren't renewed.

Oh & for the record i'd like Parky to stay a legend & not tarnish that by failing here as manager.

[Dirk Gently]

Our Messiah - he'd do as good a job as Shearer has done at Newcastle!

Absolutely not.

He made a dreadful team worse.

[The Cap]

Love Parky and think that he will return as the gaffer one day. But now is not the time. To get out of the Championship you need somebody who is a touch more wily and experienced. Motivated and passionate he may be but, at this time, crafty enough?? No.
