While my major feeling is elation at our amazing game and WIN and the 3 GOALS, I cannot help feel unbelievable anger at the team and the Manager for not playing their guts out before and not playing the attacking football that we have all been crying out for, for the past 45 ******g games.. Believe it or not I predicted the game to my long suffering neighbour in the next seat who must by now think i am a clairvoyant! Predicted the goalscorers and heroes (all tongue in cheek) but it transpired that Wheats, Alf and Will Brown all did the business!!
If I was Ken I would invite Parky into my office and say to him - "Parky no, no, no, it's not the sack - I cannot afford that, but you will be demoted to the U23's at the same salary or resign, and I am promoting David and Tony to be co-managers of the first team. The team are all sacked as of tonight for not trying their guts out for their obscene wages over 45 games and playing your ****e brand of HOOFBALL. We are going to start from scratch and get a team of youngsters in who are willing to play David Lee's style of positive, attractive, attacking FOOTBALL and score lots of goals. The fans will love that. Bye Phil!

Just about calmed down now. Like most others, when the team was announced my heart sank. Yes, we rode our luck, but so too did Forest. The change of keeper certainly didn’t help, but sheer determination won in the end against a less than fully committed Forest. Special mention for Henry. I think he’s been rubbish for weeks, but today was excellent. Less so were the frantic full backs, the uninterested Ameobi ( though he was better when switched to the left) and the headless chicken who is our captain. Wilbraham missed some scorable headers, but did it when it mattered and I’m pleased for him, ALF and Wheater that they got on the scoresheet. Not a time for recriminations. For Parky, it’s job done. However, I do hope he sees it the same way as I do and goes to Barnsley to help get them out of League One, which is much more his level. That would leave us, hopefully, to make an imaginative appointment who, with much needed investment, could rebuild the squad into one more able to compete and score at this level. My ifollow was good, as it almost always is, wots. Maybe your net provider had problems? Best wishes to everyone for the summer. I’ll be back, glued to ifollow in August! My thoughts exactly. Equal MOTM - Wilbrahimovic, Alf, Wheats and Henry. I would sack the lot of them, (for their 45 games as non triers - how come they were able to play like that today and not at Burton?) except for Parky because we cannot afford to. Just demote him to the U23's with orders - NO HOOFBALL and only attacking FOOTBALL and build a team of skilled youngsters with David Lee and Tony Kelly as joint Managers. Before David Lee is poached PLEASE ken!

While you're on Pedro, any idea what happened with Hall? Not in the u23's final and didn't appear anywhere for the first team.

Joanna....My view is we survived IN Spite of Parky not because of him Negative tactics all season put us in that position and he only changed it today BECAUSE HE HAD TO....and see what happened??? If I was a proffesional footballer would I choose to play his prehistoric tactics>>???players who since a young age have been taught to pass the ball told to hoof it !! Hopefully he goes(surely you dont want him to stay?) and investment comes into the club. Absolutely correct. He was ORDERED to play attacking football today by Ken. Look at the stats of the past 45 appalling, negative, defensive, hoofball games. The non trying players, even presumably under orders from Parky to play hoofball are equally to blame. Sack the lot of them and start anew!

How would Connor have felt? I wonder if the truth will ever come out? There must be sooooo much that we do not know about what goes on in the dressing room etc. Anyway they did win, with some fantastic attacking FOOTBALL and the first team won in spite of that deluded fool Parkinson. Thanks to Ken ORDERING him to play attacking football.

Once again, I have to advise you to actually read carefully what I wrote in my first post after the game. In addition, I would vehemently deny that "all the cracks were caused by Parky". That's a ludicrous thing to say. How would you know what he said to the players or how he responded to what he saw in training? All the pundits shower praise on PP for what he's done, whilst you do nothing but carp. Given our financial circumstances and the embargo, the quality of the squad is inevitably sub-standard but Parky found a way to succeed, not just this season but also the last. I doubt anyone could have achieved more. That's not to say that the style was great to watch. It needs to change to something more edifying, but requires substantial finance in order to move forward positively. Would it kill you to offer some praise for fundamentally rescuing the club from possible ruin and non-existence?

We got promoted last season because the standard of the other teams was appalling...and he nearly blew it With a more positive outlook and faith in the players we wouldnt have been in this position I dont see anyone clamoring for parky to stay........as I asked would you like him to stay and if so why? when teams are succesful managers get the praise...but with bolton its not just about losing this year its the way we have played all season tacrtically..I do think you are in the minority ...but I will defend your right to have an opinion...after all its just football lol Go see U,23,s totally different football

Thanks to Ken ORDERING him to play attacking football. From a very reliable source, Connor didn't play in the u23's final was because we had a trialist from Everton, who incidentally scored. Connor wasn't being considered for the first team squad, as most people had hoped.

Joanna, You must be the only one that who believes Mr P is not responsible for the debacle this season. He decides the strategy, he picks the team, he motivates or not the players. He was lucky last year and lucky again this year, Burton the allegedly poorest team in the league did the double over him.I could go on. He has repeatedly demonstrated that he cannot manage in this league. Please KA sort this out, but not to the detriment of the successful back up teams.

You mean Rowan and Martin's Laugh-in, Pedro. I think there's a few old gits floating around on here. One ringee dingee, two ringee dingee... I used to love that show.
I fully expected Hall in today's squad, as you said he had been pulled from the final. It appears that they deprived him of his glory in the final and a medal(?), if thy hand them out. Won't be on his c.v.
