The Humble Realist Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 https://www.watfordobserver.co.uk/sport/19082535.former-watford-head-coach-nigel-pearson-hits-club-controlled-journalism/ Our club makes North Korea look open and transparent in terms of spin and comms ! Although fair play to lansdown in the last 7 days for far more balanced and honest communication. Pearson suddenly.shot up the odds if that means anything. Certainly has the calibre with two promotions but is a bit of a loose cannon too. Wouldn't be boring! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodiesaffer Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 Can’t see why that link would suggest he wouldn’t fit in here. Proven at this level, someone to challenge the way the club thinks or operates maybe. He wouldn’t stand for any player tosh. He’s the man for me.

lenred Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 Would be over the moon. Exactly what we need. Still don’t believe it until I see it though although maybe SLs hand really has been pushed to go proven this time. Can but hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Top Robin Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 He is one of about 4 who I would be happy with. Others are Howe, Jankovik? and Cook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristolded1987 Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 He has just had big movement in the odds . He is now favourite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearded_red Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 You’re right he wouldn’t fit in here, and that’s a large part of the reason I’d like him as manager. Sick to my back teeth of managers that do fit in here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bodiesaffer Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 The more I’m reading the more I can only see this man would give us a massive lift. Landsdown let’s get him here. Time for you to challenge yourself with not the yes man. You’ve known where it went wrong with Danny Wilson you can learn from your mistakes in the football world...

Finley_Smith10 Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 I’d be over the moon. Want Cook however Pearson is exactly the type of man to come in and sort this club out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AppyDAZE Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 Local radio reporters are starting to shit themselves. Barring Twentyman, in fairness. I'd fancy Geoff to not shy away from some banter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davefevs Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 I’d be surprised if we got him....but he’s that quality of manager I thought would be beyond us, so ruled him out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol Oil Services Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 No point in having Nige without the recruitment lot that brought in Vardy, Kante et al while he was there, is there?

I come back to SL’s interviews over the past 10 days - came across as royally fed-up and so just need to hope that he’s come to his senses in that we need someone of NP’s calibre and proven track record to compete properly at this level.....fingers crossed @Davefevs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exAtyeoMax Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 To me, he's the archetypal football manager. No nonsense, a bit old school but just what we need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedNachos Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 Can't see him making a permanent home here, a disagreement with Jon Lansdown or Mark Ashton probable. But will leave the club in a far ******* better state than currently, bit of attitude and his man-management skills are par-none. No more soft (nice bloke) types, get a manager who will cause a storm and start putting people in places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTRFTG Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 Technically Pearson's a good manager, though personally I'd struggle to think of any club into which he'd be an amicable fit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red-Robbo Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 He wouldn't be my choice. HOWEVER, like anyone else I'd be prepared to give him a chance. And I'd be confident that he'll take better football decisions than Holden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swede Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 He's EXACTLY what we need. We don't need another pussy, we need a Rottweiler. I don't care if he ruffles feathers, he's here to keep us in this division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
