Before 2015/16 the source names the manager on fewer matches, so these rows can miss games.

Roberto Donadoni is the longest-serving: 142 matches over 3 years (Jan 2012 – May 2015). Francesco Guidolin added the most coach rating: +46.5 over 75 matches.

Club rating - the club's rating at the manager's first rated match → after the last. Coach rating - what the spell added to the manager's coach rating. Vs expected - average result per match above what the club rating predicted. Stand-in - a caretaker who covered a few matches during another manager's spell, folded under that spell. Every competition we hold, lower divisions included.

Under Michael Fabbri, Parma picked up 2.91 cards a game, 33% above their own average in the same seasons (11 matches).

League matches since 2015/16 with the referee named (199). Cards = Parma's own yellows and reds. Club avg = their cards a game in the same seasons with every referee. Under 10 matches the gap is grey: too few to call. Referees aren't drawn at random - the big games go to the senior ones - so a gap here describes, it doesn't prove a bias.
