Very unimpressed. Doesn’t come across as well as Richard Gould

For the record whatever happens tonight where do you stand?

What is the fantastic off the pitch progress he’s made? -
Akira- if you had bothered to actually think about what I said it would have made sense. Yes we are bottom of the league after two games. Pearson needs to go based on his time at City not just based in two games. This is a man with a poor track record- look up his time at Derby and I. Belgium as an example
-
Oh dear Mummy has upset you today. Yes I’ve seen City since 1976, so in a fairly good position to comment pal
-
Yes I’m a season ticket holder. This is the shitest football since SOD
-
Have you seen any of the games since Pearson arrived? Are you having a laugh
-
Why? It’s a fair point. We are second bottom and things are very poor
-
That’s it - only two games into the season and I’m done with Pearson
-
Whereabouts in Canada are you? My son lives in Vancouver. I always make a point of wearing my City shirt whenever I see the Whitecaps play

I can’t see us being smart with recruitment whilst Pearson is here. This is a man whose wasted a wage with Danny Simpson, and whilst Tanner is one for the future, it can be argued the best signing he’s made is Wiemann- who was with us already! Perhaps the best investment we can make is paying off Pearson from some of the proceeds of our younger players!!!

I didn’t say loans are free. We all agree the squad needs money spent on it next season, unless you believe this team is good enough to move up the table. To avoid a potential FFP issue, and no one on this forum knows exactly whether it will be an issue, we will have to sell. Loans will be a cheaper way than paying transfer fees. Just because someone has been in their job for 30 years doesn’t actually mean they’re still any good at it. A lot of people in business and sport are trading on their name. Pearson is one of those along with Steve Bruce. If Pearson was prepared to engage with agents he would be a good DoF mentoring a younger coach, but that’s not going to happen

It’s Sunday morning 8am mate. I’m not too bothered whether Pearson does it doesn’t deal with agents. He can deal with the Queen as far as I’m concerned. I’m just saying in the modern game, without a DoF he’s not happy to deal with Agents or consider loan players in my opinion, which isn’t the same as yours that isn’t opened minded.
-
My actual point is that he has said he doesn’t like dealing with agents and doesn’t like loans. Seems closed minded to me
-
Would you be happy being a Forest fan who have managed to improve significantly with loans? I guess the point I’m point I’m making is to highlight a perceived stubbornness about Pearson. Not wanting to deal with agents or use loan players doesn’t seem to be particularly open minded
-
Thanks, I stand corrected
-
Totally agree with you. JL has only got the job because Daddy owns the business. Let’s not forget he disappeared last season when things were tough - JL needs to be given another job away from the club If Pearson was prepared to deal with agents I would have Pearson as DoF, but he doesn’t like agents or loans. Unfortunately we are stuck with Pearson because we can’t afford to sack him I think we need to go with a DoF to give us a chance of having someone who can recruit rather than ex Leicester players. Someone like Rob Newman who is doing a good job at Man City on the scouting side, springs to mind

Great listen- thanks for all the work you put into the podcasts -
I’ve always found him to be really helpful and comes back quickly. I’ve communicated with him on Twitter with no issues at all
