Scott Parker receives Nottingham Forest sympathy after shock Bournemouth decision

Nottingham Forest fans have been showing a lot of sympathy for Scott Parker after he was sacked by Bournemouth just four games into the season.

The decision comes just five days before the Cherries are due to host Forest in a hugely important Premier League clash. Both sides are aiming to avoid an instant return to the Championship after coming up together last season alongside champions Fulham.

Parker's dismissal comes in the wake of a record 9-0 defeat to Liverpool last weekend, but it's believed that owner Maxim Demin chose to cut ties following the manager's post-match comments. "We’ve got a decision to make as a club," Parker said. "Hopefully we can get some help in and support the current team."
