NcnsBcfc Posted May 6, 2021 Report Share Posted May 6, 2021 Christ, Gregor does not come across well in this interview, he appears desperate; and almost reading from some aide memoire list. I think you can already tell from NP's tone, and body language that he thinks Gregor is amateurish at best. After 3 years as City journo, and 3 months of interviewing NP he needs to learn on the hurry up; how to get answers out of him. Pearson is a man who thinks, before he speaks; and he doesn't like schoolboy attempts to get information out of him. My advice to Gregor, is to listen to the questions put to him on the main site, that NP answers fully and in depth. Adapt your way of questioning based on your knowledge of the person you are interviewing. Otherwise, you've never going to build a relationship with Pearson that will become honest and transparent. At the moment, it's almost like a podcast, with caller's questions coming in from "JIM IN CHIPPING SODBURY". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NcnsBcfc Posted May 6, 2021 Report Share Posted May 6, 2021 Unlike Gregor, who thinks if he rephrases the question, NP will give him an answer to a question he's already said "No" to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cidered abroad Posted May 6, 2021 Report Share Posted May 6, 2021 Superb replies to all the questions. It would be too easy for NP to answer with anger showing but doing it with a smile shows his class. It a certainty that he will not need a pre match team talk when we play Millwall next season. Just pin a copy of the Millwall keepers comments on the dressing room door! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numero Uno Posted May 6, 2021 Report Share Posted May 6, 2021 I would take from the start of the interview that Weimann will be getting offered something. I think he saw the Millwall keepers comments as a bit of a low blow albeit the truth.........for those saying he is blaming everyone else bar himself it would have been so easy for him to say "he's right" and you can bet your house that is what Joey would have done. Given the way he is reacting to our current plight which is probably one of the low points of his career he's going to be a great listen if he actually gets it right.

BanburyRed Posted May 6, 2021 Report Share Posted May 6, 2021 Gregor being made to look a little bit silly. Whilst NP has turned into an Aden Flint tribute - 'will Famara be involved this weekend? NO!', 'any interest in any BCFC players? NO!'....:laugh:! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcfc01 Posted May 6, 2021 Report Share Posted May 6, 2021 TBF to Gregor, its like getting blood out of a stone with NP. He'll only give what he wants to give. But Gregor has to keep on asking the questions, its his job - and he isn't going to get any "off the record" stuff either. Bit of advice Gregor - ask the question, get the answer, move on, don't dig.

I don't think that's true on any level. But I do think that NP has a very healthy cynicism towards journalists - drop a wrong word in and they're away with a headline.

Well whoever the journalist was who was called an ostrich, it makes pearson look like a bit if a dick. I suspect he wont make that sort of comment again, youd think there needs to be some cooperation with the press. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merrick's Marvels Posted May 6, 2021 Report Share Posted May 6, 2021 "Chinese burn"?? Showing his age there. Not sure McGregory had to ask what the players' reaction was - it would've been "wtf is a chinese burn". It's not the 1970s Nige. Old Skool!
