LondonBristolian Posted April 27, 2021 Report Share Posted April 27, 2021 Being serious, the fact this is happening "with immediate effect" rather than at the end of the season is giving me a little hope that this is clearing some space to create a backroom team for a new and imminent permanent manager.

RedM Posted April 27, 2021 Report Share Posted April 27, 2021 Kind of admits there was a problem then, although the official statement says to pursue a new challenge. I’m glad this has been recognised, how could it not, and we can make some changes. As positive as a new signing I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking the same. Bit surprised it's been announced before a manager but certainly gives me hope... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dREDful Posted April 27, 2021 Report Share Posted April 27, 2021 Hopefully this gets the ball rolling then, you'd think he'd have waited to see who was appointed if he wasn't sacked (and if he was you'd probably let a permanent manager make the decision). Would say it looks good for Pearson either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petehinton Posted April 27, 2021 Report Share Posted April 27, 2021 A moments silence for all the fallen hamstrings under his watch. FWIW if he’s left with immediate effect I’d say he’s been sacked rather than off on his own accord. Either way, this is all pointing toward Pearson announced soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has to be pushed and maybe this is the outcome of NP and SL's meeting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomThumb84 Posted April 27, 2021 Report Share Posted April 27, 2021 Excellent news and clearly the right decision. Bittersweet though as this means there clearly was a problem and:- a) It has taken Pearson to flag it b) Lansdown had no clue that there was a problem and this maybe frighteningly gives an insight into Mark Ashtons power and influence in keeping Andy Rolls on Hopefully this is the beginning of Nigel Pearson re-shaping our football club and this had to be the starting point. Our injuries and recurring injuries were and are abnormal. Joe Williams I think alluded to not being happy but the article was quickly discredited.
