Maybe Hall is not the answer. Perhaps the gulf between development to first team squad is far too big and with proper defenders Hall maybe won't get a sniff.
However with 6 outfield subs allowed and an injury to ALF there's no reason at all not to include Hall in the squad. We go 1-0 up and say "sorry Connor not today I need Wilbraham to go on" but when we're desperate for a goal as we were on Saturday and will be again he must be player more likely to score!
This is after parky has high lighted the good work Hall has been putting in.
I've heard the rumours that we pay for Armstrong when we don't play him. I personally think there's a financial reason why we don't play Derick(appearance bonus) but cannot see a reason why Hall was excluded from Saturday's squad.

I think if Parky is unwilling to even consider changing his hoofball style he's unlikely to consider a role for Hall unless it's stuck on the wing like Ameobi and Armstrong, which would do the kid more harm than good for me. To those who say changing manager wouldn't make a difference, can I just point out that Everton under BSA just got their fourth win in five and up into the top half. We need to thank Parky for what he's done but explain we now need a more capable manager to take us forward which sadly Parky has proved several times in the past as well as now, that he isn't up to.

New conspiracy is that Parky won't play Hall until Feb. As any decent performances will lead to Ken trying to flog him for £100,000.
I would like Ken to sell Madine under Parkys feet. Might force the Neanderthal out of the club and give someone else a chance. I don't mind Madines work rate but he's just not a good striker.

thegrud1Vela may run around a lot at the moment but he is not creating anything and is not usually in a position to receive the ball off Madine. Just about the only service Madine gets is a hoof from Alnwick. Until the tactics better suit to players we have, it is difficult to actually tell how good they are. Too many square pegs in round holes.

I agree westy, Parky's hoof it tactics make it nearly impossible to accurately judge anyone's ability. I maintain that if Madine were accompanied by a proper striker, maybe even Hall, he would score more goals but he's nowhere near good enough or skillfull enough to play the lone role on his own. Vela does a lot because Henry and Pratley don't but if he had a partner to play with like he had with Zach, he could look much more dynamic. In fairness I think you could make a case for many of our players looking better under a more positive system but sadly we're unlikely to see that as long as Parkinson is in charge. I see Swansea parted company with Clement this morning because results were poor like many others have done this season already yet Anderson keeps faith with a moron who seems incapable of seeing the obvious.

@whites
Maybe there's a chink in Parky's armour. Ken has been looking at the playtime stats of recent signings. Certainly there are a number of Parky signings that have not had game time in months (although injury partly to blame). Alf being one, Karacan another. Many would like to see Derik getting more game time (in mid field) too. Buckley seemed to be injured or unfit when he signed and is only just beginning to show what he can offer. Article in the BEN where Noone admitted we haven't seen the best of him yet - why not??
There are others (not all Parky signings) that many would like to see depart: Pratley, Chris Taylor (completely forgotten about him) & Dervite. Some I'd like to see go: Armstrong, Beevers and the two West Ham lads. We would need a ready made replacement for Beevers though who apart from Wheater is the best of a central defence bad bunch.
I suppose with the latest HMRC case that Ken has had a reality check and realises that he needs to get some wages off the books before bringing more in. Problem is there has to be willing buyers or clubs to take on wages as part of loans. Sadly I don't see any of those we would like to be rid of attracting much interest which probably means that some regular first teamer will be sold.
It could be an interesting window but my bet is that it will be a very disappointing one.

Of the players that we are thinking are not good enough how many has Parky worked with previously?
Darby- without doubt the weak link. Parky worked with him at Bradford where he lost his place. PP brings him up a division.
Cullen, Burke, Taylor all been with Parky too at some point all failing to make the grade in this league.
Dervite kept on despite every fan knowing that league one was his level. Parky chose to keep him and not for cover either. He genuinely wanted him in his back 5!
Morais is the centre of the Ven diagram of "players parky has worked with" "players not good enough in this league" and a third "player we resigned when there was no need". Going up a division a manager needs to be ruthless and a bit cynical and pragmatic. Yes the postman did deliver but his course and distance form in this league is poor, his age is against him and we are saturated with wide right players. ALF - see above about form in this league. In fairness to ALF he has done it at this level and is probably the most liked man in the squad with the fans. Most fans would cheer his inclusion against his former club on Saturday.
Karacan similar to above.
My point is Phil has a league one mindset. Of the other players he signed that he didn't know about Little is just coming ok, Robinson seems to green. Armstrong is not a winger, Noone actually is, Wilbraham is a waste of everyone's time he needs a spray of WD40 before he warms up!
Ken could probably have saved £20k a week by letting Derick, Earing, King and Hall warm the bench over Dercite, Karacan, No one and Wilbraham! And with that money brought in the next Tammy Abraham on loan!

As HMRC are back looking at a possible winding-up order because of unpaid taxes, will the Football League reintroduce the player embargo on the Wanderers?

And with that money brought in the next Tammy Abraham on loan! Excellent analysis OM but I fear that whatever would be obvious to a normal chairman, Anderson is not that. He knows he'd struggle to get anyone in who would be as subservient as Parky clearly is and with the HMRC situation lining up against him, even less money to ditch Him. It's clear gates will fall off as Parkinson continues his negative system and we become more adrift at the bottom in the new year, so the only other form of revenue is player sales, so goodbye Josh and possibly Madine and Ameobi too if anyone comes in for them. I really can't see anybody wanting any of our other players so I can't then see any coming in, whatever is said in the media. Let's face it, we're going down and will probably still be stuck with Parky next year if no new owner comes in, in which case the Macron, or whatever it will be called by then, won't be seeing me.
