    Parker's it would appear is down to the post match interview where he basically told the media there is no chance of staying up with the direction of the board. 

    Issue is he wasn't far wrong tho. The players that are still there after last foray into premiership weren't good enough to stay in it and certainly now aren't up to it. Other players brought in were good enough to get promoted. They act more like Norwich and Watford now tbf.

    Disgusted by Parker getting chop..  not surprised JR did... clearly something far wrong at Utd with Watts and Mulgrew on bench... and their players did throw in the towel v Celts... we just outplayed them..  what now... or do we care what happens below us.. if Utd or Hibs had any sense they would appoint Martindale...but they will want a big salary name who is unproven in SPFL... f**kem and long may their suffering go on... we are presently ok and a reminder that Directors and Owners are far more fickle than us fans

    Totally agree with you on Parker getting the boot. Don't care about whats happening at bottom of the table nor do I think that is going to be the case this season. I don't think SR suffers slackers in the team and or as the case may be if you aren't going to push yourself to get into the team no matter what age you are then you can leave.

    Prescott Cables are a decent side so he will still be playing at a good level , I am guessing this way he will still be the star of the side which is supporter owned, plus his nephew plays there. 

    Fitness could be potentially suspect as not played many games with a layoff since leaving Derry.

    2018–2019 – St. Mirren – 13 games (4 goals)
    2019–2020 – Scunthorpe United – 18 games (1 goal)
    2019 → Stockport County (loan) – 4 games(0 goals)
    2020–2021 – Derry City – 11 games (1 goal)
    2022– Prescot Cables

    Non league footy has changed over the years. I remember saying to my eldest lad a few years ago that imo a lot of the players are probably more dedicated to the game as a lot of it is part time and to keep fitness, training and keep an outside job going at the same time takes dedication. Leagues like national league now are predominantly full-time now and are a good competitive standard. Years ago when carlisle dropped into what was the conference only about half the teams could afford to remain full-time. Unfortunately now once a player 'drops down' it very unusual for them to get back.

    Only exception being I think very recently was a lad Owen Moxon who was at Annan part time now at carlisle and doing well. Think it helped the Annan manager being a carlisle player for years too.

    He was a terrific player. No idea why he has slipped down the leagues

    Could be a number of reasons mate obviously his skill not being one of them. To be fair the non league scene down here is littered with players that really should be still playing at a higher level. Maybe a bit like the junior scene in Scotland.

    Just going through round up of local non league games which I do like and an ex player of ours was at it again with a screamer. Adam Hamill who now plays for merseyside outfit prescott cables with the winner in their fa Cup preliminary round match. Don't think he knows what a close range finish is.

    Good player but at 34 now finds himself well down the footy pyramid.

    Tanser was never really injured at St.Johnstone.

    His injury problems seem to have developed with us.

    We do need to bring in a LB/LWB.

    With Fraser filling in for Gallagher yesterday, we had no real cover for Strain either.

    As other post thanks for clearing that one 👍

    From watching yesterday I'm not sure what else we need to help add to the squad. Before I still thought we needed a Gogic type and a more creative type like Ronan. From yesterday I thought Erhahon, Baccus and Kiltie played really well (though looked f**ked like anyone would in that heat playing at that tempo). I'm now thinking, even if it's the loan market, maybe cover for both wing backs who can get up and down all day at that tempo would be good. Tanser is good and a great option on his day, but is injured a fair bit. Tait did well yesterday and his goal was great, but he is seen as backup on both sides. With Tanser out and him in, we are light there with players.

    Tanser far too injury prone, maybe JG thought his training regime would have been able to help. Maybe this is why the fakes were glad to get him off their books. Anyway as for Tait, it wouldn't surprise me if he knows he is now a backup player as he is into his 30s now. Not a bad type of players to have as back up as in gives 100% every game. Certainly puts some of the younger ones to shame..................
