Fulham: Scott Parker 'disappointed' by Tony Khan apology after loss

Fulham boss Scott Parker says vice-chairman Tony Khan's Twitter apology for Monday's 3-0 defeat by Aston Villa was "disappointing" and "not helpful".

"It's not something I agree with but it's how he sees it," said Parker.

"The thing I'm actually disappointed with, is how he's apologising for the performance. He shouldn't have."

The Cottagers have lost their three opening league games - conceding 10 goals - including Monday's 3-0 home reverse against Aston Villa.

Fulham, who were promoted via the play-offs, have only brought in two new first-team players on permanent deals.

Full-backs Antonee Robinson and Kenny Tete were the permanent summer arrivals in Scott Parker's squad against Villa, while goalkeeper Alphonse Areola, who started on Monday, was one of three loan signings.
