  1. He's modelling himself on the Wally with the Brolly look?
  2. That fills me with just so much confidence.............Ha!! .
  3. Some people just don't get it? As I couldn't be MORE behind the new Manager .....and my comment was far from snidey IMO. You must surely be aware of the constant criticism LM has received by a number of posters since he was appointed, forever stating that we are no better off than before NP was dismissed? I have always taken the stance that comparing his achievements over a period since November (21 games yesterday) with NP's two and a half years was misleading and unfair, and that patience and tolerance were needed to allow LM to introduce and adopt a new playing style. I stated on numerous occasions, that given time, I felt that LM would be prove to be a success and in the long term would prove to be a major step forward. But NO, I was told by other posters that we are NO better off, and why was NP dismissed, as we should have stuck with him, and are in the same place as we were under NP anyway? My remark was aimed at those posters who constantly referred to the "Nothing has Changed" syndrome, and was meant as a humourous reference to their lack of patience with the new manager.....who has, as i have predicted on numerous instances started to turn things around. I note that i have received around 20 replies to my innocuous aside, I cannot be bothered to read any , other than yours, as i imagine they are of the same kneejerk quality, and completely miss my point? To finish, if you can be bothered to read......I was a big fan of NP, and felt he was poorly treated by management, but just like you, I more than adequately have got behind the new manager, and have defended his approach and tactics on this forum many times to his detractor's I despair sometimes at the over reactions on this site by certain posters, some people need to get a sense of humour, and get off their high horse? In My Considered Opinion, of course?
  4. I note the "Cult of Nige" are quiet tonight? Ha! PS.Not that i have anything against Uncle Nigel.
  5. Blimey......I am not gonna post for a while..........I am fed up with ongoing pedants analysing every iota, and picking over each semantic meaning.........I think i will stick to reading all of the balanced and constantly logical posts that appear on here on a daily basis? Ha!
  6. For me, trying something new shows ambition. Ambition is - "A strong wish to achieve something" Maybe it will be successful , maybe it will fail?........but the powers that be, decided to try something new and different. . Like it or Not, and you may consider it foolhardy, but it cannot be denied that it is ambitious?
  7. Of course NP designated 2 coaches to look after the training. You are misinterpreting what i said. NP did not spend much time, himself, on the training pitch, that is a fact, and all that i said.........you are reading something else into my words, just to be contentious.
  8. If you want to compare Nigel Pearson With Alex Ferguson that's fine. I was making the point that NP did barely any coaching, it was not a criticism, merely an observation
  9. Nigel Pearson did practically no coaching...........I never referred to Euell and Fleming. The subject of my post was Nigel Pearson. So Please do not make up untruths to suit your own agenda .
  10. It is completely dependent on your POV? I think NP did a fantastic job of clearing out the deadwood, stabilising our finances and establishing us as a secure Championship club. I think his dismissal was handled abysmally, and after he had achieved so much, he deserved to be treated with more respect. However we will never know if he would have got us promoted, maybe?, maybe not? The club decided to go in a new direction, with a young coach, who spent his time on the training ground, rather than in the office, I personally can see the long term logic in that, some don't? Whether you like it or not, that shows ambition. As to whether it is misguided ambition depends on your outlook. I think it was a good move, and believe it will succeed in the long run....others would have preferred NP to have remained in the job, and to have been given funds. I think it was ambitious to appoint a young tracksuit coach.....you do NOT....it is all about opinion? All we can do is sit back and see what develops, because Nigel is NOT coming back.
  11. LM has been in the job for approximately 14 weeks. Funds are being released in the summer from the 35 million that has been accrued from transfers out. You either believe we are making progress or you don't, depending on your POV. The definition of Ambition is: : : - " A desire and a strong wish to be successful" Whatever your position, it cannot really be denied that WE ARE showing ambition? Whether that is fulfilled is a different matter? Personally i support Manning and believe he will, given some time, prove to be successful, and dependent on our Summer signings, I intend to put my money down on us finishing in the Top 6 next season. That is either blind ambition or foollhardiness? Ha!!
  12. I sincerely feel sorry for anyone who is afraid of dogs, as most of them are friendlier and better company than many humans IMO.
  13. So Max making numerous outstanding save"s, doesn't make him outstanding. OK
  14. Spot on. And where is this proven top striker, that no club in their right minds would release in the Jan window, anyway? Like you, i would love to hear some named candidates?
