  1. Ultimate Poll: Pearson, Lansdown and the board

    in Football Chat

    Posted

    Jon Lansdown has pretty much said Nige got the boot as results were not good enough...

    Let's run the situation past his Dad as if we were talking about Hargreaves Lansdown. I may well be off the mark here🤣 but I think if you had 25 office staff and 12 were absent for a month with illness, as an educated guess, you may not hit your managerial targets  😂😂😂😂

    It will 100% be Frank Lampard. 

    Hilarious. I know some are quoting Lampard....but can you imagine Frank saying 'OK Tins, I will play the way you want us to play (created by Nige btw) and just tell me what players I need to pick 48 hours before each game....thanks Brian for the opportunity 😂🤦🏻‍♂️

    Beale won’t be cheap having been at Rangers and is full of himself.

    Manning will cost compo.

    I don’t think either will be cheap all-told….but that’s only my view.

     

    I don't think Beale will demand high wages regardless of his Rangers post....he's only been a number 1 for 65 matches in total..

    I don't believe it will be any of the 3 that Sky said we are interested in, it will be an "up and coming" lower league coach. 

    I agree...more likely to be someone like Michael Beale or Liam Manning...

    Michael Beale as a No1 =

    65 games, Win %age 61% 

    Liam Manning Career = 

    140 games, Win %age 47%

    Both will be a cheaper option than most and SL will like this🤣

    I think on this occasion it will be a very quick appointment to cease all 'the noise' against the lansdowns....never before has a manager received so much backing and is far more popular (and probably more powerful) than the board itself

    Exeter, Yeovil, FGRs. I can't see him going to Rovers, he wouldn't last the interview. 

    I think he will get his health back on track (back operation) and probably retire and become a pundit in view that he speaks so well....

    Unfortunately, He Didn't Stand A Chance!

    in Football Chat

    Posted · Edited by Tomo

    In the words from the Mrs - 'He Didn't Stand a Chance'...

    The Mrs has endured 20+Years of my obsession with Bristol City. 

    I'm 52 now and I have supported the club since 1977 so she's lucky it's not been a 45 year journey for her🤣

    In the words of Emma, 'he didn't have no budget, he had lots of players injured, what more could he do?'...

    'And the majority of fans wanted him to stay'...

    She added....'But his employers didn't like Nigel Pearson and that's the bottom line'...

    Summary....Lansdown can't handle any manager with a voice and simply wants a nicey chummy manager who will agree to everything he says...

    After 20 suffering years, even the Mrs has sussed out the board and how they operate..

    Bizarrely...Nige did everything they asked for and still got the boot.

    Whilst Nige should be celebrating an extension of his contract, it's a termination of contract, simply down to the Lansdowns lack of football knowledge and connection with its fanbase.

    Rant over...from me (and the Mrs🤣)

  17. Thank you Nige…

    Top Man, Top Manager. 

    Poor Decision...

    I wish you all the very best of health and if you decide to retire Nige, enjoy that valuable time with your friends and family...

    It's very much 'what could have been' and I still can't understand the decision.

  23. Pearson Post Match

    in Football Chat

    Posted

    Imo....90% of fans that attend games want Nigel's contract to be extended.

    Imo...80% of the overall fan base want Nigel's contract to be extended.

    Unfortunately Nige is not 'A YES MAN'...

    The Lansdowns like YES MEN and they will achieve nothing....

  25. Cardiff City (away) - kick off time

    in Football Chat

    Posted · Edited by Tomo

    Got mine this morning. Having done so many away matches, I have never done Cardiff as a fan which is mad (reported there a number of times against other championship clubs though and sometimes the atmosphere has been poor - not this one - :laugh:!).

    Me and and my 13th year old Son are looking forward to this one!

    You Reds!
