A certain person (@lrrr) had compiled a nice scouting report of Manning last year. A very good read. Don't know the fella but a link would be very welcome. 13 minutes ago, Fordy62 said: MANAGER!!!!!!! Theoretically elevated status or real. One sincerely hopes the latter. 6 minutes ago, Selred said: I'd say he's on par with Coppell, everyone knew him from his terrific time at Reading in the Prem. I think you do a disservice to Nigel Pearson. Welcome to Ashton Gate Nigel. I hope you stay for years with corresponding success. Well done to Steve Lansdown. There is no doubt he made this decision with little to no persuasive necessity from messr Ashton. Sorry mis-spell... Messer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFC11 Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 Noticed he officially takes over on Wednesday, just hoping he doesn’t decide to do a runner after realising how shite we are after watching from the stands tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChippenhamRed Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 I’m glad they specified the intention to reassess in the summer with a view to a more long term contract. They wouldn’t have said that if Pearson wasn’t interested beyond this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shahanshahan Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 Great to see it finally being confirmed! IMO, probably makes sense for him to observe tomorrow's game with Boro then have time with the team before Swansea. (Probably means I won't spend £10 to watch the game tomorrow but will on Saturday now...?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheltons Army Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 No talk from the man until Weds then , understandable ‘Pearson will formally take over on Wednesday before conducting media interviews later that day ‘ Lets hope it’s not , ‘ I said to Mr Lansdown after watching the game last night, sorry , I can do major problems , but even I can’t do miracles ‘ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offside Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 I’m overjoyed with this appointment. After the increasingly dour football of the last couple of years, the fiasco of the Holden appointment and our shocking form of late this is just what we needed. Someone with experience and a good CV, who can give the club a boost. Welcome, Nigel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
