RedM Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 I think the players are very lucky there are no fans at the ground. We have gone though bad times but this is amongst the worse teams in a while. It would test the most rose tinted fans Quote Link to comment

Perhaps he'll want to stay to prove that he can get it right. Otherwise, he leaves here having failed here, failed at Derby and been sacked by Watford in between. Again, make sure you direct this mainly at Ashton and Lansdown. Its their mess, which yes, Pearson couldn’t save. 1 Quote Link to comment

Gutless and spineless the lot of them with very few exceptions. Schoolboy error by Palmer, beaten by a team who wanted it more. Some might say that its us that doesn't want to be associated with Pearson and with performances under him being so shite, I would have to agree. He inherited a weak and soft squad, but there's been no improvement. He was my choice after LJ was sacked and there are extenuating circumstances, but it really isn't what was expected. I don't think SL will be minded to offer a contract to him and may even cut it short - why not ? who could do worse ? Simpson and downing ? I think not. Quote Link to comment

How is Steve Lansdown not complicit? So where would we be without his money? Don't see a queue waiting to give away 10 million every year to cover losses. Or perhaps we could get a nice fake sheik instead and have a lovely ground and stunning squad like the gas 2 Quote Link to comment

Understand being undecided on NP. But to follow it up with wanting robins when we need a real leader is a terrible shout imo . Forget results , look at how we’re losing . We are ******* leaderless from Lansdown to the players . We massively need a Pearson type manager. I said today I though we’d lose 2-1 and get bullied but not just last 30 minutes . I ******* hate these players 4 1 Quote Link to comment

But this is a mess of Ashton and Lansdown’s making. Never forget that. It’s been failing for years. Theyve created this shite on the pitch and now Steve had to solve it. Agree. Even a few months ago SL was lauding the quality in the squad. I was confused which squad he was talking about. Quote Link to comment

Fammy, Lansbury, Rowe all dead wood. You say that but it wouldn't surprise me if NP wanted to keep both Lansbury and Rowe. This is what really worries me most. Quote Link to comment

He has allowed the quality in our squad to be cleared out each season and allowed Johnson/Holden to replace it these wasters. I hope he is big enough to admit this and appoint Pearson with the financial support and a remit to do what is needed to sort us out. Or surely relegation will follow next season. Get off the pot Lansdown and get Pearson appointed. Quote Link to comment

Always red Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 Now agreeing with other posters. Is NP the man? Mmm. Cannot think of any other possible candidates but he's not covering himself in glory. He can't get them to play for him now it appears. I appreciate there is dead wood in the squad but I'll not be renewing until I see the path forward. Think I'll see what the European Super league is like. Oh, wait a minute... Quote Link to comment

woodsy62 Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 We are just a rich Bristol rovers we are truly pathetic and Pearson I’m not convinced he’s the answer we’ve chucked money to create crap like that Quote Link to comment

Yep I tend to agree with you- yeah he has inherited a squad of misfits who were completely shot of confidence but you would of at least hoped to see some fight, and an insight into the type of football that Pearson wants to play by now. Nothing has changed and that’s concerning. Robins is not a bad shout at all. Quote Link to comment
grifty Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 Says it all that their goalkeeper is more of a threat at creating a goal than our £5m striker! Quote Link to comment

To play devils advocate, if you were another club and you appointed Pearson in the summer, how much of a lass would you give him because ‘Bristol City are ******* state’? 1 Quote Link to comment

Gazred Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 I don't think there was a lot wrong with the formation, selection or game plan tonight. The execution however was lacking a fair bit in the first 50-60 mins then practically non-existant for the last 30. Should never of lost that game. Pathetic from Palmer, really was. 3 Quote Link to comment

Oldland2 Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 I wouldn’t blame NP if he decides to not coach this bunch of amateurs next season, never mind sack the manage, in this case it should be sack the players, enough is enough Quote Link to comment
