da premier bet： Sunderland have run out of patience with Aiden McGeady and he is now training away from the first-team squad, and has been made available for transfer.
da bwin： The Irishman only signed a new contract last summer but his decline in performances and poor attitude, being spotted eating McDonald’s for example, shows just how far his stock has fallen.
Parkinson admitted he hasn’t taken the decision lightly but supporters seem unsatisfied, and several are calling for his head instead.
It is a bold view to take without knowing the full details, but the fact that the midfielder won the Player of the Year last year shows his importance to the team, and just how good he can be when he’s at the top of his game – which is why some have his back.
Fans’ growing impatience with Parkinson is understandable given he has won just two out of 12 games in charge, with things not appearing to get any better on or off the pitch.
Letting an experienced player like McGeady go is a risky decision regardless of what may have happened behind-the-scenes, and the Black Cats’ boss has only added another obstacle for him to overcome by doing so.
One fan has accused Parkinson of losing the dressing room and it is possible discontent could grow if his decision backfires.
Fans have shared their view on the whole situation and some believe it reflects badly on the club, with Stewart Donald also being criticised for his running of the club.
