Admin phantom Posted March 6, 2021 Admin Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 4 minutes ago, The dastardly red said: desperately unfunny and predictable that someone started a thread entitled Pearson Out. Obviously you don't actually think that and meant it in a sarcastic way. Punks like you usually claim they're being "ironic" which is just a tarty misdiagnosis of sarcasm. So what the hell is the point of your thread? What does it bring to the table? It's like when someone says so and so "is not the messiah" and guaranteed you get some sniggering halfwit posting "He's a very naughty boy" Boring, cheap and in no way funny. Sadly like a growing number of threads on here compared to the past. Probably a sign of the lockdown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silvio Dante Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 Jesus - not just on this thread but several there’s a major overreaction here. Pearson took the job when we had seven losses on the bounce, and only c15 “senior” players fit. He wouldn’t have been expecting to win every game between now and the end of the season, and would expect form and fitness to fluctuate. Yep, with a couple of notable exceptions - most key KP - we were poor today, but if anyone thinks that means Pearson’s view has changed they’re a fool. If anything, it strengthens his hand to make changes that he wants to - had we won 6 on the bounce, the question would arise as to whether we needed them. Man comes into struggling club and they play poor in one of four games. If you think that means NP all of a sudden thinks he shouldn’t be here longer term, that’s pretty damn insulting to him as he would have expected it when he took the job.

Not sure why Lansbury comes on instead of Massengo or even Taylor Moore as a midfielder. Just surely not Lansbury. And keeping Fam on. I don't get it. Got nothing to lose and he keeps miss controlling the ball. The fact 2 managers have now chosen Lansbury over Massengo makes me think there's more to it than us fans know, as opposed to the managers being clueless.

He can clearly see that half the squad isn’t upto top 6 standard so will be wanting the funds and control over who comes in and who goes We have plenty of players out of contract soon. That will provide the flexibility he needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the point people are trying to make us he will have an expectation that certain players he needs can be brought in. As long as Steve offers that up I can see NP staying. If he’s given an “opportunity” to work with the current shower of shit for another 12 months I can see him passing that up!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's quite clear that as Nigel has already indicated he came into the club with his eyes wide open and was prepared for some of the OTT reaction when we lose a game or two. Providing that he and the club can agree on the way forward, I can see him being here next season and stamping his own authority on the team.

old_eastender Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 Poor display today BUT I remain very optimistic for our future IF we can keep Pearson, preferably with Ashton gone and NP being able to bring in some of his own people. We have the nearest to a "Pat Lam" we could realistically afford in Nigel Pearson, we must back him and let him turn us into genuine promotion contenders.

Umm, we wee also poor against Bournemouth. We had a 20 minute spell, where we were good. Football matches are won and lost over 90 minutes, and for the entire second half we couldn't get out of our half. It was abject. Awful and pathetic. IF Pearson is offered the job and IF he chooses to take it, it will take 2 years of rebuilding to get into the top 6. And then that's a lottery. And we're bristol city. So make it a lifetime stuck in the Championship. This group of players is a mid table group. Bar Bentley and maybe Kalas. We're 34 goals short of Deano's target of 2 goals a game. We've scored an average of 1.03 goals a game. Put another way, we're 48% behind where he wanted us to be, if I underachieved like that, I would be fired. I'd say 20 million this summer. 15 million the next might see us somewhere close to the playoffs in 2023. But shouldn't we be in Europe now?

bakes Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 This season is obviously a right off due to the performances of our players big job for Pearson to sort out this squad he has been brought in to manage. We have been used to jackal and hyde performances from our side for a number of years now. I thought the past 3 performaces were good but today was back to aweful again. Pearson is not going to sort this out in days but once he does we will be looking up rather than down. COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerseybean Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 2 hours ago, 77 punk said: lets watch a manager who knows what they are doing , build a good football team. I really do hope that NP becomes a longer-term appointment. I am optimistically thinking that he has been told: 1 Do your stuff until the end of the season 2 Keep us up 3 Then come forward with a rebuilding plan which we can back Rebuilding would include a clear out and retaining those he has assessed as being his future players (including those currently out injured) plus sensible and affordable recruitment. If you were him based on this season who would you retain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
