Parish/Glasner

[Westina]

I have always been 100% behind Parish but I have to say it has been disappointing that he has made very little public comment about the fantastic job Oliver has done.
Clearly there was a major fall out after the Macclesfield/Sunderland matches but he could of at least recognised the fantastic achievement of three trophies whist losing a number of key players.
It is a shame they could have not settled their differences and maybe,just maybe we might not be looking for a new Manager.

It was interesting how effusive in his praise OG was for virtually all stakeholders in the club and he seemed at some point to name them all... apart from the Board.

The one reference I can think of was a tongue in cheek one in the build up to the Conference League final: "I do not have to agree with the Chairman today... our best moment is still to come."

I do not think there is too much love lost there.

The relationship between Board and Manager changed after European qualification Glasner wanted To strengthen the team for the extra games involved and felt he was not supported by Parish and felt let down with the sale of gehui, a very similar situation with Michael laudrup at swansea he did not get financial backing from the owners after getting swansea European football he later left as he felt the club were not meeting his ambitions. Building stability of the club takes time and is not always of interest to managers who want to build on previous season's success.

Abandoned I believe he said…..

We could have spent £200m in the summer window and he still would have gone. It’s his MO. He never stays anywhere long. I still think he was trying to get fired. That’s all water under the bridge now though.

owning a football club you either loose loads of money or make loads of money and get out on a high before you loose It all , very difficult to tick by year after year because as soon as you get success it comes at a cost.

None of us is in a position to know what actually has happened between OG and SP, or the board, my guess would be Parish, would have kept OG, as said ,with a record of two cups, and a Charity Shield who wouldn’t? if he could meet his demands, that simple. Parish said OG had things he wanted to do, what he didn’t say was those things would never include Palace, and that is all down to OG for whatever reason his choice.

Parish job is not to be Ollie’s best mate. He was his boss. I have heard interviews from SP after the game praising Ollie

Yes I did see some praise from Steve. I don't think they ended on terrible terms or anything, although they were never gonna be quite as close after events that have been and gone.

The one thing that Parish does around conflicts with managers is keep his own counsel.

We all heard Glasner's complaints loud and clear, but as far as I'm aware Parish has never responded.
I don't think he's even leaked stories through 'friendly' journalists to refute or explain the issues raised by Glasner.
Other owners/ chairmen are more relaxed about using this tactic.

I doubt Parish was too happy about being accused of 'abandoning ' or ' not meeting commitments' to Glasner and the team, but we'll never find out unless there's the unlikely release of a tell all autobiography.

In reality I expext Glasner would have gone in any event at the end of the season.
Football has hit the stage where a 2-3 year period for a manager almost counts as long term warranting a testimonial!
