Parker's had 2 years as a manager. Took a team up, then took them down again. Now in year 3 at a different club.
Howe took over Bournemouth when they were heading out of the Football League. Kept them up and took them to 3 promotions into the PL where he kept them for 5 years playing really good football.
I think he definitely deserves a shot at a big club.


Was it 5 years they were in the Prem?! They were that insignificant I genuinely thought they were around for two seasons.

Yep, 15/16 was their 1st year in it..

'Insignificant' - not a happy choice of word that Mase - sounds like cartel speak, just ignorantly disrespectful.


I hate every team that isn’t City. Every team that voted to try and screw us over. I don’t care about the feeling of other teams fans because of that.

With Bournemouth it was slightly tongue in cheek. I think they may have voted with us? Their chairman is a City fan so I hope they’re promoted.

I'd forgotten both those things - Jeff Mostyn is indeed a lifelong City fan and backed us in every PL vote against the cartel clubs. I hope they are promoted too, we've beaten them in every PL game - 10 of those + the League Cup.

And they've taken points from all our rivals as well in those years.
